Toronto, Canada/ Seattle, USA - April 3, 2024 - RAM® Mounts & Wavve Boating have announced the launch of a new partnership to help recreational boaters across North America. Combining RAM®’s rugged, marine mobile mounting systems, and Wavve Boating’s award winning navigation app, this partnership aims to improve recreational boater confidence, at a time when mobile technology adoption continues to expand. This integrated partnership plans to reach over 250,000 recreational boaters during the 2024 boating season 

"...new boaters are not yet familiar with things like shifting sandbars and hard-to-navigate channels…like their more seasoned counterparts.”

Kristen Frohnhoefer, President of Sea Tow Services International

A 2021 study sponsored by the NMMA revealed that an astonishing 37% of first-time boat buyers express a lack of boater knowledge and confidence. Additionally, in 2021 Sea Tow reported that owners of new boats are 142% more likely to need ungrounding services. These incidents are a leading source of disappointment for boaters, many of whom are operating vessels without access to a marine GPS. “These numbers are very interesting,” said Kristen Frohnhoefer, President of Sea Tow Services International. “They reflect the fact that new boaters are not yet familiar with things like shifting sandbars and hard-to-navigate channels…like their more seasoned counterparts.”

"...Being able to take their mount from their car, to their boat, and back again ensures the cost of entry remains low while not sacrificing their [new boaters] safety on the water."

Katherine Bock, Digital Marketing Manager at RAM® Mounts

As more boaters continue to lean into the convenience and accessibility of mobile technology, a secure mounting solution for phones and tablets at the helm has become paramount. “This is a trend we’re seeing across multiple industries, not just Marine,” says Katie Bock, Digital Marketing Manager at RAM® Mounts. “More and more customers are relying on mobile applications as they explore new hobbies over the cost of traditional ‘on-board’ solutions. Being able to take their mount from their car, to their boat, and back again ensures the cost of entry remains low while not sacrificing their safety on the water.” As the reliance on mobile technology continues, this partnership will aim at making safer marine navigation tools more accessible to recreational boaters. 

"By providing reliable on-water tools and a supportive community, we inspire confidence and encourage frequent boating..."

Adam Allore, Founder & CEO of Wavve Boating

"We’re transforming the way first-time boat owners navigate and connect with the boating community," says Adam Allore, Founder & CEO of Wavve Boating, who was recently named to Boating Industry’s annual 40 Under 40 List. "Our app extends beyond the dock, offering a comprehensive boating experience both on and off the water. By providing reliable on-water tools and a supportive community, we inspire confidence and encourage frequent boating, resulting in higher satisfaction and increased customer retention.”
