NMMA Announces New Board Members

During its board meetings at the 2024 International BoatBuilders’ Exhibition and Conference (IBEX) earlier this month, the National  Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) held biennial elections for its three manufacturing Divisional Boards: The Boat Manufacturers Division (BMD), Engine Manufacturers Division (EMD) and Marine Accessory and Components Division (MACD).  These elections form each divisional board, as well as appoint individuals to represent the respective division on NMMA’s board of directors.

New individuals joining the NMMA board of directors include Ben Duke (Polaris Marine), Tommy Hancock (Sportsman Boats) and Rob Parmentier (Sailfish Boats).

The executive committee of the NMMA board is led by chairperson Bill Yeargin (Correct Craft), vice chair Craig Clawson (Magic Tilit Trailers), treasurer Aine Denari (Brunswick/Navico Group), secretary Ben Speciale (Yamaha Marine) and immediate past chair Steve Heese (Chris Craft). The executive committee also includes representatives from each of the three manufacturing member divisions: Tommy Hancock (Sportsman Boats), Matt Peat (Transhield) and Mike Lindberg (Ilmor).
