Metarina originated from a recurring struggle on the high seas in the Mediterranean at the end of 2019. At the time, two of the co-founders, as crew of a traditional sailing yacht, found it to be extremely difficult to reliably book a safe harbour. Since then, the then captain Nicola Kienzle, tech entrepreneur Henry Hooper, and senior developer Leon Entrup have been working on creating the optimal link between marinas and boaters. Together they form the backbone to disrupt the boating world, a sector that is just starting to catch up with the digital transformation of the last decades. With their deep industry knowledge the team has understood and validated the key challenges of marinas not being able to plan their resources optimally. With Metarina, the trio seeks to counter that challenge and to have a lasting and sustainable impact on the entire sector.
