BoatTEST has more than two million unique visitors annually. While 90% are from English-speaking countries — including 156,000 Canadians, 79,000 from Australia/New Zealand and 42,000 from the UK — the other 10% are led by Spanish speakers (40,000), French speakers (32,000) and Swedish speakers (17,000). Another 100,000 come from two dozen European countries and 5,800 are Arabic speakers.
