Skipperi New Zealand Rebrands as Subscription Boat Club
A popular boat-sharing service in New Zealand has officially changed its name. Skipperi New Zealand is now known as the Subscription Boat Club (SBC). This change comes after the company became fully owned by New Zealand interests.
Despite the new name, the company says that customers will still have access to the same fleet of boats and the same marina locations across the country. The service allows members to use boats through a subscription model, which is often seen as a more affordable alternative to owning a private vessel.
To support this transition, the company has introduced a new technology platform. This system uses artificial intelligence to help manage bookings and operations. The developers stated that the new software was specifically built to meet the safety and operational requirements set by Maritime New Zealand.
This update is expected to provide a smoother experience for current members. By focusing on local ownership and custom technology, the Subscription Boat Club aims to continue providing accessible boating opportunities for people living in New Zealand.
