NOTES AND TALKING POINTS

HEADLINES: 

The Association of Marina Industries (AMI), a non-profit membership organization dedicated exclusively to serving the marina industry's needs, is developing a national Clean Marina Program to provide certifications in states where no program exists. AMI offers direct access to innovative and cost-saving business solutions, educational services, regularly updated news and publications, and research results. The national Clean Marina Program will focus on training marina managers rather than certifying facilities. Once approved, the managers can authorize marinas using an online portal. AMI expects to offer the training in the fall.

Finally, the Triton 13000/2 TE is designed for deep-ocean exploration and marine-life research. It's able to dive to about 13,000 feet beneath the water's surface, which is the deepest-diving acrylic pressure-hulled manned submersible ever produced. The gull wings can be retracted for streamlined ascent and descent or maneuvering in tight spaces. When the gull wings are extended, they serve as a platform for lighting, cameras, or scientific observation. And best of all, you can take it with you on your yacht!
