This report documents the regional economic significance of recreational use associated with 18 Oregon coastal and river ports in 2002. Recreation use, visitor spending and regional economic effects were estimated using visitor surveys and regional economic input- output models. This study found that in 2002, over 700,000 recreation visits (in party-days) occurred at the 18 surveyed Oregon ports, resulting in $75 million in trip spending and $31 million in purchases of boat-related durable goods and other fixed costs. The spending by Port visitors was a significant economic factor to the State of Oregon, resulting in $109 million in sales, $41 million in personal income, and 1,670 jobs to the State's economy.
