Goes Beyond Federal Requirements When a boat has been NMMA Certified using American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC) standards, you know it has been built to the industry’s leading safety standards. In addition to meeting all federal regulations, NMMA Certified boats are evaluated for compliance with 31 ABYC standards. Enjoy the peace of mind that comes from owning a boat built to the highest industry standards. Insist on a boat bearing the “NMMA Certified using ABYC standards” logo.
