Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Pontoon Boat Market

The COVID-19 pandemic has shaken several industries. In 2020, the tremendous growth in the spread of the virus has urged governments worldwide to impose strict restrictions on vehicles and human movement, travel bans, mass lockdowns, and business shutdowns. The lockdown imposition has resulted in the lesser production of commodities, goods, and services. Also, the manufacturing sector has witnessed severe losses due to the temporary shutdown of factories and low production volumes. Additionally, social or physical distancing measures have led ship manufacturers to limit their operations. Therefore, the pontoon boat market had a negative impact during 2020.
