Overview

Boataround operates an online marketplace for boat and sailboat charters, aiming to simplify and secure bookings across a range of yacht sizes and amenities. Founded in 2016 by Pavel Pribis and Jana Escher, both former Booking.com managers, the company has grown over the past decade and targets global expansion to become the largest charter platform. In 2025 users booked roughly €72 million worth of sailboat reservations through Boataround's site, with the company retaining €8.5 million in revenue. Boataround reports it is profitable and became operationally EBITDA-positive in January 2026. The company is using recent financings and credit facilities to provide runway, support scaling and manage cash flow while continuing its international growth plans.
