And we are back with Part 2 of my conversation with Darren Vaux, President of ICOMIA where he continues to unpack the research undertaken by Ricardo plc, a leading
global engineering consulting firm, into the pathways to decarbonisation for the recreational marine industry. This project outlines the objective measures of contributory impacts and sustainability.

Since 1966, the International Council of Marine Industry Associations (ICOMIA) has helped move the boating community forward, advancing cutting-edge innovations and mobilising the industry to create a better boating experience. Our love for boating is fundamentally reliant on a healthy and sustainable marine environment, and we must take care of it to ensure the experiences boating provides can be enjoyed for generations to come.

A big thankyou goes to ICOMIA for taking part in this podcast series that is all about every nook and cranny of the boating and marine industry with the aim to share and encourage greater participation of our natural environment.

See you all on the water soon.
