The decision-making process

The Federation's supreme decision-making body is its general meeting which convenes twice annually. The right to vote at the general meeting of the Federation is exercised by elected representatives who have been chosen at the annual general meetings of their respective associations.

In addition to a chairman and two vice-chairmen, the board of directors comprises 12 regular members who represent the boards of the various member associations. The board of directors is responsible for tasks delegated at the meetings of the associations. The managing director of the Federation is subordinate to the board of directors and implements the tasks on behalf of the board. The managing director is assisted by an office manager and an office secretary. In addition to regular office duties, working groups organised by Finnboat carry out various assignments commissioned by member associations.
