Association news: In response to the tremendous interest in the sold-out National Dry Stack Conference the week of October 23rd of this year, the Association of Marina Industries (AMI) and the American Boat Builders and Repairers Association (ABBRA) have decided to add a panel discussion to their owned and operated International Marina & Boatyard Conference (IMBC) scheduled for January 28–31, 2007 in Tampa, Florida. The IMBC’s seminar schedule already includes such topics as the mysteries of contract legality, worst profit ideas and how to avoid them, sensible approaches to rising healthcare costs, and suggestions for boatyard and marina refits. “After reviewing the numbers for the Dry Stack conference, it makes sense for us to add some of that material to our show,” says Julie Vanier, IMBC coordinator. “We were actively engaged in the Dry Stack seminar program and plan to choose the most interesting topics and speakers to create a pertinent and relevant panel discussion at IMBC.” The National Dry Stack Conference discussions included the latest in building and equipment-hauling techniques, risk management, and OSHA standards for marina forklift operators and industry. The IMBC will announce its new Dry Stack-related material within the week, Vanier states. The Association of Marina Industries (AMI) is a non-profit membership organization providing management training, education, and information about research, legislation, and environmental issues affecting the marina industry. The American Boat Builders and Repairers Association (ABBRA), founded in 1943, strengthens and encourages professionalism in the boat building and marine service industry by providing its members with timely information, training, education and business services. |
