Identifying the Factors & Avenues of Growth
Tending to the most frequent questions and problems that consume the psyches of business visionaries and leaders, the new report of "Stratview Research" on the Recreational Fiberglass Boat Market responds to all the significant inquiries.
Boating is one of the most dynamic industries in the world and is highly exposed to external economic factors, such as disposable income. Recreational boats are the most popular ones among all types of boats, whose hull is preferably manufactured using two distinct materials: fiberglass and aluminum. Fiberglass boats currently dominate the overall recreational boat market and are even subjected to grow at a higher rate in the foreseen future, driven by the advantages of fiberglass boats over aluminum boats including corrosion resistance, lightweight, and long life.
The USA and Canada have been the pioneer markets for recreational boats for many decades. In 2018, roughly 49 million people were fishing participants in the USA, accounting for approximately 16.5% of the total population of the country. Fishing is the most popular boating activity and 2nd most popular outdoor activity in the USA.
The last five years were quite promising with almost recovery of recreational boat sales after the steep decline in 2009 due to economic turmoil; however, the sales of recreational boats in the USA yet not reached its peak sales (279,800 boats in 2008 in the USA) but it is anticipated that the year 2019 would be iconic for the industry as the sales of recreational boats in the USA is likely to cross its peak sales of 2008.
The next five years for the recreational fiberglass boats seem vigorous with attractive growth opportunities across the world. It is anticipated that the global recreational fiberglass boat market is projected to depict a healthy growth over the next five years to reach an estimated value of US$ 9,538.5 million in 2024. Continuous increase in new powerboat sales, an increasing number of fishing participants, an increasing number of outboard motorboat sales, increasing HNWI population, and affordability of recreational fiberglass boats are major growth drivers of the recreational fiberglass boat market.
Another factor drawing a consequential interest in the market is an increasing number of merger & acquisition activities in the past couple of years, leading to a greater market concentration. Major boat manufacturers own a large number of brands and have keenly been acquiring other brands in order to gain a larger chunk of the market. For instance, Malibu acquired Cobalt and Pursuit Boats in 2017 and 2018, respectively. Similarly, in 2017, acquisition of Nauticstar, LLC by Mastercraft.
