I was just writing about IOOS and I went looking for the total number of organizations. Could not find it.

This would be:
17 federal agencies + all the academic, state, local, commercial, non-profits that make up the 11 RAs.

Do we have such a list?

I asked a similar question to the ioos_tech google group earlier this year: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/ioos_tech/xu4hbv-rZIM/yQa-xRsPDAAJ

It looks like NANOOS has about 65 members: http://www.nanoos.org/about_nanoos/members.php

If that is representative of RAs, then IOOS would have about 65*11 + 17 = 732 organizations, which would be impressive!

@rsignell-usgs Probably too late, but I think you're looking for this:

https://ioos.noaa.gov/about/ioos-by-the-numbers/

@jbosch-noaa

That is all I know of.

@mwengren, https://ioos.noaa.gov/about/ioos-by-the-numbers is the site that does NOT list the number of organizations. Sure would be useful though! It only lists 11 regional associations and 17 federal agencies.
