FL – August 2023 / Newsmaker Alert: Delivering on its mission
to make boating accessible to everyone, everywhere, Boatsetter,

is changing the face of boating. This summer, the company is reporting

 Traditionally
boating has been enjoyed by an older and predominantly male demographic.
However, Boatsetter is breaking down barriers and making boating accessible,
affordable, convenient, and fun for everyone. For the first time since
launching in 2014, women make up half of all Boatsetter renters - climbing
from 43 percent in 2021 to 50 percent in 2023. Nearly 70 percent of Boatsetter
users are under the age of 44.
To date, Boatsetter has gotten
more than one million boaters and boat owners alike to discover the endless
possibilities the water provides. Featuring the largest database of USCG-certified
captains, Boatsetter makes it possible for even those with no prior boating
experience to tap into an incredible array of water activities with rentals
starting as low as $50 an hour.
“At Boatsetter, we have a
‘sea’s the limit’ approach to water experiences—if you want to get on the
water, we’re here to make that happen,” said Michael
Farb, CEO of Boatsetter.
Boatsetter’s flexible booking
features mean travelers can tack boating onto any occasion including family
vacations, birthday parties, and fun outings on the weekend. The company’s
“Instant Book” feature allows renters to get out on the water the same
day they book. Renters can also find varying trip durations, from half
or full-day boat rentals to 2, 3, and 6-hour excursions, and even multi-day
reservations on the Boatsetter platform.
