SINGAPORE: As we reflect on 2025, it stands out as a milestone year for us, one marked by innovation, growth, and meaningful engagement across the global yachting community.
Looking ahead to 2026, we take a moment to acknowledge the achievements and progress that strengthened our foundations and advanced our mission, setting the stage for the next chapter of growth and impact.
January - Roadmap
We began the year by laying the groundwork for an ambitious roadmap of industry events and internal product releases. This early momentum set the tone for a year defined by progress, innovation, and acceleration.
February – Dubai International Boat Show
In February, we attended the Dubai International Boat Show, reconnecting with long-standing partners and building new relationships across the Middle East. This marked the first of many global engagements throughout the year and reinforced our growing international presence.
April – PIBS & Aquator Underway
April proved to be a defining month. We showcased our platform at the Palma International Boat Show, strengthening our footprint within the Mediterranean market.
Alongside this, we launched Aquator Underway, our first floating office initiative. Cruising the South of France, our team hosted onboard demonstrations, met with clients face-to-face, and experienced a new way of engaging with the industry. It was a defining moment in our journey and a true reflection of our commitment to innovation and accessibility.
May – Blog & Lloyd’s Certification
In May, we introduced our official blog, providing a dedicated platform for industry insights, product deep dives, company updates, and thought leadership, a central hub to keep our community informed and connected.
That same month, we proudly achieved Lloyd’s Register certification, a significant milestone reinforcing our commitment to compliance, reliability, and operational excellence.
June – Yacht Production Module
June marked the launch of our Yacht Production Module, expanding our capabilities for new builds and further strengthening our offering for shipyards, project managers, and production teams.
July – Quotation Builder & New Translations
In July, we launched our Quotation Builder, designed to streamline the onboarding process and empower prospective clients to calculate and understand pricing with ease.
We also started expanding our platform translation capabilities, making the system more accessible to teams around the world.
August – AI-Powered Solutions & Pilot Program
August introduced one of our most transformative developments yet, our suite of AI-powered solutions, designed to automate workflows, enhance operational foresight, and elevate the user experience across departments.
We also launched our Pilot Program, welcoming a selection of clients to experience early-stage innovations and contribute directly to future development.
September – DNV Certification & Translations & Cannes Yachting Festival
September was marked by two major achievements: One, we were officially awarded our DNV certification, further cementing our adherence to international standards. Two, we expanded our platform translations, adding new languages with more scheduled for release reflecting our growing global community.
We also attended the Cannes Yachting Festival, engaging with industry leaders and demonstrating our latest advancements.
October – New Shipyard Modules
In October, we released an entirely new suite of Shipyard Modules, enhancing tools for project management, workflows, planning, and operational oversight, bringing even more power and flexibility to the shipyard ecosystem.
November – ICE & METSTrade
November brought two significant events: We visited the International Charter Expo (ICE) in Amsterdam, meeting with charter professionals and expanding our reach within this important segment.
We then exhibited at METS Trade Amsterdam, one of our most successful expos to date. Connecting with existing clients, new prospects, and industry partners, METS highlighted the growing momentum behind our platform and our continued leadership in innovation.
December – Brokerage Module
We deliver a turnkey brokerage support model designed to remove workload while enhancing value:
Protecting assets, supporting valuations, enhancing marketability in a market where asset protection, valuation accuracy, and sales marketability are critical. Aquator’s digital tools provide brokers with a clear advantage.
By digitising operational intelligence and embedding it directly into the sales lifecycle, Aquator transforms vessels into transparent, well-documented, and future-ready assets reducing risk for buyers and enhancing outcomes for sellers and brokers alike.
Year Ahead - 2026
As we look ahead, our strategic priorities are clearly defined and firmly aligned with long-term growth. We are scaling our team with a strong focus on software development, business development, and marketing, ensuring we have the expertise and capacity to support an increasingly sophisticated product ecosystem and global client base.
At the same time, we are deepening our strategic partnerships with shipyards, further strengthening our position within the new build, refit, and aftersales lifecycle. This includes the continued rollout of advanced shipyard management modules, the expansion and refinement of our yacht management solutions, and the launch of our dedicated technical management module.
In parallel, we are broadening our brokerage and services offerings and additional Third Party Software integrations to provide a more holistic, end-to-end operational platform for owners, managers, and shipyards alike.
A key pillar of this next phase is our continued investment in AI-driven solutions. By embedding intelligent automation, predictive insights, and data-driven decision-making across our platform, we aim to further simplify operations, improve transparency, and elevate the overall user experience.
We extend our sincere thanks to our clients, partners, and wider community. Your trust, collaboration, and feedback continue to shape our direction and fuel our innovation. Together, we look forward to defining the next chapter of yacht and shipyard management software.
Build for the sea. Defined by innovation.
