What does HISWA do?

HISWA or HISWA-RECRON is the trade association for watersport and recreation. HISWA-RECRON represents over 2400 watersport and recreational companies.

Watersport companies must apply the HISWA conditions when dealing with consumers. The HISWA general conditions were established with the ANWB and the Dutch Consumer’s Association to ensure your interests as a consumer are properly protected. HISWA is the only trade association in the watersport sector to provide an independent disputes committee that includes representatives from consumer organisations. 

The name HISWA is also associated with the two watersport exhibitions with the same name: the HISWA Dutch in-water Boat Show and HISWA Amsterdam Boat Show.
