Boatsetter and Getmyboat Announce Merger

Boatsetter and Getmyboat, two category experts in boat sharing and on-the-water experiences, announced their merger and the formation of a new combined entity.

Together, the companies become a global destination for boating and on-the-water adventure, with more than half a billion dollars in bookings across 50 countries. The merger will integrate their platforms into a connected marketplace, unlocking broader inventory, more seamless discovery and booking, and enhanced tools and opportunities for the tens of thousands of owners and operators building their businesses worldwide.

Michael Farb, who has served as CEO of Boatsetter since 2022, will become CEO of the combined entity. The headquarters will be based in Miami, with Boatsetter and Getmyboat teams continuing to operate from their respective current locations. Both platforms and apps will remain active with no immediate changes for consumers, owners or operators. Existing investors Level Equity, Centerbridge Partners and Yanmar will continue to support the brands’ long-term growth.
