The American Boat & Yacht Council (ABYC), the nonprofit organization that develops safety standards for the design, construction, maintenance and repair of boats, has opened registration for Standards Week, January 10-14, 2022, at the Francis Marion Hotel in Charleston, S.C.

Throughout the week, various committees will meet to discuss and potentially update standards under review. Other events during the week include ABYC’s annual meeting, a marine law symposium and an ABYC standards certification course.

Standards Week includes participation from a diverse group of marine industry professionals, each with a different perspective and area of expertise. Attendees at Standards Week learn which standards are being revised or newly considered for development and how these standards may affect the future of boating.
