A fishing boat can range from two-person pleasure fishing boats up to 7-8 ton commercial fishers that can haul in over a billion fish at one time. Island nations like Japan rely on the fishing industry to provide food. Fishing is also popular in places like the U.S, where it is often done for sport rather than for food. Fishing is deeply rooted in the American culture.

Many marinas and harbors cater to fishing boats and sport boats. It is a wide array of business that make its living caring for and servicing this boating and fishing community. Both recreational fishermen and commercial enterprises share most harbors.
