Future Vision: Automation & OEM Partnerships

Our long-term goal is to automate the entire boat ownership logistics chain. This will be achieved through a phased technology rollout and strategic alliances with leading boat, trailer, and marine technology manufacturers.

Phase 1: Present (2025) - Centralized Digital Platform

Establish the tech foundation with customer portals, real-time tracking, and digital dispatch systems. Manual operations executed by trained professionals.

Phase 2: Near Future (2027-2029) - Semi-Automation & OEM Integration

Partner with OEMs to integrate telematics. Introduce semi-autonomous systems like AI-assisted trailer alignment and automated dock management software.

Phase 3: Long Term (2030+) - Full Autonomy

Deploy fully autonomous loading/unloading systems using robotic trailers. Autonomous transport vehicles manage long-haul routes. The entire process is booked and monitored via the YachtClub.life app with minimal human intervention.
