The top 27 animal alien species introduced into Europe for aquaculture and related activities (2010, background): “Major pathways of introduction concern international shipping (Carlton, 1999; Ruiz et al., 2000; Gollasch, 2006), pleasure boating (Minchin et al., 2006), sport fishing (Rosenthal, 1980; Molony et al., 2003) and finally aquaculture as a business implicated in all three of these vector categories.”
Alien species of Bugula (Bryozoa) along the Atlantic coasts of Europe (2011, background): “More recently, species are increasingly being transported on yachts and other small vessels (Ashton et al. 2006; Minchin et al. 2006).”
Alien species along the Italian coasts: an overview (2010, background): “It is evident that a detailed knowledge of vectors of introduction (and secondary spread as well, the importance of which has been demonstrated by Minchin et al. 2006) is necessary for a correct management of the biological invasion problem.”
The direct physical, chemical and biotic impacts on Australian coastal waters due to recreational boating (2011, background): “Although the size of their contribution to the problem appears to have had limited research (Johnson et al. 2001, Minchin et al. 2006), their infection risk is known to differ by (i) vessel type (moored vessels higher risk than trailered) and; (ii) species (Glasby and Lobb 2008).”
Alien species in British brackish and marine waters (2013, background): “The former involves transport via commercial or recreational vessel hulls and ship sea-chests (used during ballast water exchange), either as sessile (fouling), boring, vagile, or clinging species (Minchin et al. 2006).”
Recreational boats as potential vectors of marine organisms at an invasion hotspot (2010, background): “The categories include vessels that pose a vector threat because of regional and international voyage patterns, similar to Minchin et al. (2006).”
Adventures of a sea squirt sleuth: unraveling the identity of Didemnum vexillum, a global ascidian invader (2009, background): “The recent rapid expansion of D. vexillum populations into many marinas in Washington (Lambert 2006) is probably due to recreational boat traffic, which may be a highly significant vector once a species has made a successful transoceanic transplantation (Wasson et al. 2001; Minchin et al. 2006).”
Recreational boating: a large unregulated vector transporting marine invasive species (2011, background): “(reviewed in Minchin et al., 2006), although all 70 boats examined in a northern Australian study were fouled (Floerl, 2002).”
Rapid coastal survey for targeted alien species associated with floating pontoons in Ireland (2007, background): “With few exceptions alien species arriving in Ireland normally first appear in Britain (Minchin and Eno 2002) and are usually found in port regions where merchant and fishing vessels berth, at marinas for leisure craft and in shellfish culture areas (Minchin 2006a, Minchin et al. 2006a ).”
Characterizing Vectors of Marine Invasion (2009, background): “Small craft vary in design, speed and behaviour ( Minchin et al. 2006 ), and this can influence the degree of fouling accumulating on hulls.”
