The Plywood Regatta was established in 1996 by the Marine Industries Association of South Florida. The event honors the craft of boat building and the excitement of recreational boating in an effort to continue ‘building boat’s future…today!'

Students from various levels will craft seaworthy vessels in a day, fostering teamwork with simple tools and materials.

After building, students personalize their boats and race in friendly heats to crown the champion.

Proceeds support marine education and scholarship programs, fueling industry growth and student opportunities.
Whether you’re currently in the marine industry or have been involved in some facet of the marine industry during your lifetime, we WANT YOU!
Parents, grandparents, uncles and aunts, cousins and siblings- we all have known young people at some stage in our lives, so why not take this opportunity to mentor a Plywood Regatta team for two days?
Help a team of students construct a canal-worthy, ahem, SEAworthy vessel to take them to the top of the Plywood Regatta boat building forefront!
