About the Company

Click&Boat is the leading European boat rental platform and a fast-growing company. Our main objective is to make boating accessible around the world and to provide private and professional boat owners with additional income from boat rentals.

We have achieved over 100 percent growth annually since our conception in 2013. Not to mention, we have also acquired three companies in three different European countries (France, Germany, and Spain) in only two years. After acquiring Oceans Evasions, Scansail, and Nautal, Click&Boat now has three powerful brands to work with.

This year, we are more equipped than ever to achieve our goal of becoming the number one boat rental service by strengthening our position in Europe. In 2022, our growth has been powered by an incoming major equity fund and the world’s largest boating marketplace - Boats Group. So far, we are opened for business in more than 100 countries and 4000 destinations, and we are going to keep growing!

Have we kept your attention? Well, we are also a buoyant and diverse team of about 200 employees from 20 different countries. Our headquarter is based in Paris on a barge moored on the Seine River!

Our Barcelona office is located in the historic heart of Ciutat Vella, just steps from the Barcelona Cathedral, in a modern coworking space, only a 20-minute walk from the marina.

Sounds good? We’d love for you to jump aboard!
