The New Space Race

There was a time when nations raced to launch the first man into space. With the buzz these days around renewables, alternative energy, and legislature like the FAST Electricity Act. one can deduce what the race is for this time. In the wake of the green revolution, the industry is on full throttle to transform from dependence on gas propulsion to anything but, predominantly electrical.

Happy National Arbor Day, fellow boaters! Today, let's not only celebrate trees but also take care of our boats and engines to prevent any harmful impact on the environment.
Let's make sure to properly maintain our boats and engines to prevent fuel or oil leaks that can harm our waterways and the trees that thrive around them.
Re- do your engines yet?
Share a photo of your boat's engine before and after the upgrade or a photo of the new engines being installed.

Don't forget to tag us and use the hashtag so we can see your fantastic transformation!

Revolutionizing an Industry - Matt from Dockwa

It’s one thing to have an innovative idea, it’s entirely another to make that idea a successful business. Our guest this week on the SHIPSHAPE podcast is somewhat of an expert on the matter; Matt Fradette, the co-founder and Chief Business Officer of Dockwa, one of the premier marina, dock, slip and mooring companies, will be joining us to tell us his story.

With a concept that the industry didn’t have the infrastructure to handle, learn how they had to re-educate an entire market, from the software marinas use to how they interact with their customers, they found themselves essentially having to push for an evolution in the industry and their business simultaneously, which is quite a monumental task.

Hear how they had to bend the rules of conventional business and adapt to ‘ride the waves’, as it were, AND do all this without rocking the proverbial boat enough for them to be flung overboard. From going to boat shows to merging with their biggest competitor, join us and learn what it takes to keep your head above water while starting a business in the maritime industry.

JUST GET OUT THERE: Taking on Taylor’s Travels

This week on the SHIPSHAPE podcast, we speak to Taylor Francis. Taylor is best known as the face behind Taylor’s Travels: a YouTube channel which has garnered over 200,000 subscribers since it was founded just a few years ago. Speaking to us from Ontario Canada, Taylor regales us with stories from her van-lifer and waitressing days, to some of the trickiest fixes of her boat, through to extraordinary Caribbean travels and, of course, one of life’s most complex adventures: navigating social media and modern-day relationships.

Skills needed to Sail

Sailing is a recreational and competitive activity which is both an art and science. It’s a fun and challenging way to explore the beauty of the world’s waterways and oceans. Sailing also provides an opportunity for both physical and mental exhaustion, instilling a sense of accomplishment when one navigates a successful journey. Though sailing has been around since ancient times, recreational and competitive sailing has become popular in recent decades, with participants in the millions worldwide.
