Words by BRIAN CALVERT Photographs as Credited Boating Industry in Subic 14
There was a great 60s novel, “Been Down So Long it Looks like Up to Me”, this became a popular Boating Industry saying then and now it describes the mood of so many in the recreational boating industry, cautious yet beaming optimism abounds. This industry, like many, has been hard hit by the pandemic, so I wanted to talk to some key players in the recreational boating industry in Subic Bay. Subic Bay has long been a haven for shipping and military activity, the natural harbor and protection provided by the surrounding mountains keep things safe and calm in the bay. In the last decades and the immerging recreational boating industry has grown in the shadows of the larger enterprises. Now recreational boating is a leading industry, creating many good-paying jobs and supporting small businesses, so let’s take a look. The first stop was a “virtual” visit to Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority, Chairwoman Atty. Wilma ‘Amy’ T. Eisma. She jumped at the chance to talk about her support of the recreational boating industry in SBMA, stating there are over 100 businesses in the industry in the area. From boat building, repairs, and maintenance to supplies and crew, Subic Bay is the center for pleasure boating in the Philippines. Noting the industry has been hit hard by the pandemic the Chairwoman was eager to discuss the future of the industry in Subic Bay, as a ring of enthusiasm enriched her predictions. Subic Bay will be the boating epicenter of the country if not SE Asia she foretold. Boats from the entire region can come here for all their needs then enjoy the over 7000 islands, endless anchorages, and world-class diving once things get back to “normal”. Subic Bay will be the boating epicenter of the country if not SE Asia she foretold. Subic Bay Yacht Club Bay 15
