Estelle Viriot, a former yacht chef, launched Seanergy Yachting in November, describing it as a living ecosystem that connects everyone in the world of yachting. From recruitment and HR tools to operational dashboards, emergency reporting, logistics management, and more, captains, crew, yacht managers, charter guests and more can all be connected through the platform with a simple mission: save time, reduce stress, and make collaboration easier for everyone. “You’re going to have a full set of inventory, you’re going to be able to manage the finances of your boat, you’re going to be able to manage the administration of the boat,” Viriot said. Viriot hopes that Seanergy will also improve industry safety, offering captains and crew the option to share their opinions on which flag state or MLC regulations need to be changed. Seanergy can later apply pressure on the relevant agencies to make the changes happen. “It’s going to bring transparency and it’s going to totally shift the philosophy of the industry, because now it’s just shady,” Viriot said. “The data we’re going to collect is going to make it so transparent and clear.” In addition to making the industry safer, Seanergy’s platform offers wellness course options such as meditation, workouts, and yoga, and a marketplace with doctors, therapists, life coaches, and other services and products. “It is not a tool for one category of professionals, but an ecosystem built for everyone,” Viriot said.
