Welcome to the Open Marine Initiative

The Open Marine Initiative is an undertaking by the leaders in the marine classified advertisements industry to create open, interoperable standards for boat specifications.

Put simply, the Initiative intends to set standards for trading data between its members, so that brokers only have to enter in their data once, in order to take full advantages of the services that a world of classified websites have to offer. Initiative members are also committed to sharing the data free of charge to the broker.

For more details, please look at the About the Initiative page, and look at our Planned Rollout schedule. If you are a provider of classified marine ad services or stock management or CRM software, please look at the Becoming a Member section. We can be contacted us through the means listed on the Contact Us page.
