Takes in more than just "boats" ...

Alvaro is right, the paragraph appears to specifically refer to boats/yachts/other vessels. However, the phrase "mercado náutico deportivo" is not limited to the same.

PS:) I'd also be careful about using the term "water sports", especially if browsing the web ;)

Explanation:
Hi there,

I have the feeling this is focused on botas rather than water sports.

I would be inclined to say "recreational boat (market)" or "recreational sailing", if specific to sailing, but I think more context is needed to ascertain how broad the concept is.

Erring on the side of caution, I'd say "sports boat market".

Here is an interesting albeit old link that may help on the subject:
