By connecting shipyards, owners, and service providers, BOMARINO helps users manage their vessel’s lifecycle with predictive maintenance, real‑time insights, and access to trusted suppliers and technicians. The platform is designed for both B2B and B2B2C markets, with early validation from potential users in the leisure and small‑commercial boating segments.
