Economic recovery holds the key to global boating industry regaining a positive
growth trajectory. There were dramatic changes in the boat market during 2009 and
2010 with prominent regions such as North America suffering double-digit decline
in 2009 due to economic downturn and credit crunch. The European boat market started
feeling the brunt of the economic downturn towards the end of 2008 and dropped significantly
in 2009. The year 2010 is projected to remain almost flat on a global basis as economy
is recovering from the recessionary trends. Lucintel expects the global boat market
to see a positive growth during forecast years as market recovers from the slump
of 2008 and 2009
