Boatsetter

Series A in 2016
Boatsetter is a boat rental community connecting boat owners, boat captains, and anyone who seeks a water-full experience. Boatsetter offers a unique Boat sharing marketplace that makes boat rentals accessible to consumers regardless of their boating experience. The company created a catalyst for growth by unlocking the 95% idle capacity of privately owned vessels, which in turn helps boat owners realize returns on their boat investments. Boatsetter's distinct approach combines best-in-class collaborative market tools from companies like Airbnb (home rentals) and Uber (professional drivers) to create the only model capable of bringing the “new sharing economy” to the marine industry. Boatsetter assembled a uniquely qualified team of marine professionals, tech start-up veterans, and car rental industry experts to bring today’s collaborative “sharing” economy to the boating industry. Boatsetter has a significant traction and has established a national network of marine-industry businesses that are partnering with the company on an exclusive basis to roll out the platform in the U.S.
