Description:

"The for-hire recreational fishing industry along the northeastern coast of the United States (ME - NC), provides an important outdoor leisure service for many individuals and sustains economic activity in the form of sales, income, and employment throughout the region. In 2011, nearly 1.6 million passengers fished aboard for-hire boats operating in marine waters of the Northeast. While the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) regularly collects detailed catch, effort, and expenditure information from anglers fishing aboard for-hire vessels, no data are collected about the business structure and costs of the marine for-hire fishing industry operating in the Northeast. This study is intended to fill that gap. In addition to providing a detailed overview of the operating structure of the 'average' Northeast for-hire head boat and charter boat, we estimate the economic activity that for-hire businesses contribute to the Northeast's economy as measured by total employment, labor income, and sales"--Introduction.

"April 2013."

"The first edition of this report, released on April 3, 2013, contained an error in the calculation of charter employment. Hired captains, crew/mates, and office staff were properly accounted for in the report, but employment attributed to charter boat owner/operators was mistakenly omitted from Table 15, 16, and 17. This omission resulted in deflated estimates of employment in the charter boat industry. Corrections were made in those tables, in the Executive Summary, the first and third paragraphs of Section 3.6.2, and the last paragraph in Section 4.2."
