The Challenge

Whereas the availability of yachts for rental is wide, the same cannot be said for accessibility to information about them. The issue lies within the lack of digitalisation: 1. Search for yachts begins and ends with regular web search engines (like Google) or phone calls 2. Customers don’t get any trustworthy information about the quality of a yacht and its equipment 3. Sailors are privileged to make their choice based on recommendations from their network It creates an unhealthy market which is not only inaccessible and inconvenient but also dangerous for customers. This is what we are here to solve.

The solution

Functional MVP is already in place which is a marketplace (platform) which guarantees our enterprise partners: 1. Free-of-charge booking & payment system, calendar and chat functionality to better connect with their clients 2. Increased revenues due to economies of scale & larger pool of customers 3. Increased brand recognition In our clients’ eyes, we want to be seen as a reliable middleman, which provides high-quality and fast service at almost no costs. In the future, API integrations with external booking systems should be developed to ensure smooth & instant bookings with chartering companies.

Mission

Our aim is to connect all sailing enthusiasts with trusted and professional chartering enterprises in one, intuitive and convenient e-platform*. *to be potentially adjusted based on market response
