In 1980 the Michigan Sea Grant Program undertook a survey of registered boat owners in the state. This report documents the methods and basic results of the survey. Based upon almost 4000 respondents it is estimated that registered boats in Michigan logged 16.9 million boat days in 1980. This is an increase of 23% over 1977 levels. About one third of all boat days took place on the Great Lakes and connecting waters, the remaining two thirds occurring on inland lakes and streams. Boaters averaged 33 days of boating in 1980 with larger boats stored at waterfront sites the most active. Fishing is the most popular boating activity, accounting for over half of all boat days and almost 60% of all Great Lakes boat days. The largest increase in boating between 1977 and 1980 was in small boat activity on the Great Lakes.
