Miami Beach, FL – February 15, 2014 – A beautiful day turned into a gorgeous night as guests gathered on the Masterpiece Yacht in Miami Beach to toast the launch of BoatSetter, a one-of-a-kind online marketplace that connects boat owners with captains and consumers who want to spend a day on the water—regardless of their boating experience. While the BoatSetter concept has made waves in the media through its experience-based philosophy, innovative model and partnership with Earlyshares, the site celebrated its true debut this weekend at The 2014 Miami International Boat Show with much fanfare within the boating, lifestyle and travel industries. Founder and CEO of Collaborative Boating, Andrew Sturner, greeted boating executives, media and influencers, providing guests with one-on-one to a great night out during the Yacht & Brokerage Show. Attendees sipped Whispering Angel rosé and Estrella Damm beer, snacked on ceviche and tacos from MyCeviche and recharged with OnJuice juices as they planned their next time on the water, a day trip booked through BoatSetter.
