GCBA Mission Statement
The Genesee Charter Boat Association, Inc. was formed in 1984 as a non-for profit corporation. Our mission is to advance the charter boat industry and fishing on Lake Ontario and connecting waterways in the following ways.

Second, by setting standards of conduct to insure the integrity and quality of the charter boat industry. Finally, interacting with governmental regulatory and management agencies whose policies and programs impact the Lake Ontario fishery.
