As Americans look to find new ways to socially distance, the peer-to-peer boat rental platform Boatsetter has announced a 270% increase in traffic. The company also reported its highest booking numbers in June 2020, with rentals increasing 74% from the same time last year, as well as a 40% increase in rental listings on the platform.
With more than 19,000 rental listings in more than 600 cities worldwide, Boatsetter allows new boaters to get on the water by connecting them with boat owners and licensed captains.
“For years, we have seen the demand for boat sharing services continue to increase, thanks to companies like Boatsetter making boat rentals more accessible and affordable than ever before,” says Jaclyn Baumgarten, Boatsetter CEO. “Now, after months of pent-up demand, we expect boating to continue to gain traction as a preferred recreational activity as consumers opt for a safe, unique and cost-effective way to experience the outdoors with their families this summer.”
