SPOTLIGHT:

DOCKLYNE

Docklyne is a small but ambitious player trying to disrupt a traditional, highly-fragmented leisure niche by applying marketplace + SaaS tech. If they can scale operator adoption, maintain their positive take rate, and manage operational risk, they could emerge as the “Hotels.com or OpenTable of boating rentals” in the U.S. (or even globally).
