Shape the Standards
ABYC Standards Week is where the marine industry sets the course for safety and innovation. ABYC standards are developed through an open, consensus-based process that brings together boatbuilders, technicians, surveyors, regulators, and other experts. This collaboration ensures standards are practical, widely adopted, and directly tied to safer boating.
Join technical leaders and peers as we update standards headed for Supplement 66 (July 2026), ensuring today’s decisions build tomorrow’s boats.
