Alma Advisors advises easyBoat on its capital raise led by Sir Stelios Hadjioannou

Alma Advisors has advised easyBoat, a boat chartering marketplace, on its investment from a group of private investors including Sir Stelios Hadjioannou. The €500,000 raise will be used to drive momentum amid growing demand for chartering services during post-covid holiday seasons.

easyBoat.com provides transparency allowing customers to compare charter prices for the same class of boat - typically up to 100ft in length - offered via multiple operators, at the same embarkation port. This direct transparent comparison, similar to Skyscanner for flights or booking.com for hotels, saves both time and money for clients. easyBoat.com reflects the core values of the ‘easy’ family: to provide great value, simplicity for the many, not the few and to strive for relentless innovation.

The company plans to return to the market via crowdfunding in the next few weeks as it prepares to accelerate its product roadmap and launch in more destinations worldwide.
