National Boating Safety Awards

       

The National Boating Safety Awards were established in 2019 by the Sea Tow Foundation Boating Safety Advisory Council to recognize and celebrate the top for-profit recreational boating industry companies, and those organizations that represent for-profit boating companies, for their commitment to promoting boating safety initiatives.  The name was shortened from the original National Boating Industry Safety Awards in 2023 to focus more directly on boating safety while still recognizing and celebrating the same boating industry companies. Now in their 6th year, the National Boating Safety Awards were presented at IBEX on October 2, 2024 at 4 pm in the Tech Talk Theater.
