From your whitepaper (https://yachtco.io/doc/yachtco-whitepaper.pdf):

Quote
In the last 10 years, the average age of users more or less changed by 10 years from around 45 to 55 years. This means that basically no young boat owners entered the market, consumers spend less and less time on the boat, and renting is gaining popularity. Recreational boating is gaining popularity as a new way of spending vacations. Chartering therefore endured the 2008 crisis rather well, however, smaller companies faced difficulties.

From the referenced study (http://ec.europa.eu/DocsRoom/documents/15043/attachments/1/translations/en/renditions/native):

To your credit you did clean up the wrong grammar in the original, but its still essentially the same thing. Other sections of your white paper also lift entire sections from this study.

From your whitepaper:

Quote
The demand trend is also attributed to the phenomenon that today’s users of boats appear to be less willing to accept long preparation of their boating trips, constant maintenance or dealing with upcoming problems, leading to decreasing tendencies to own a boat and an increased growth demand for charters. They want to go to their preferred destination, have a boat ready and everything functioning throughout their holidays.

From the study (quoted by another article (https://www.nibs.be/en/developing-youth-culture-marinas), as you should have done):

From your whitepaper:

Quote
The following subsections describe the main features of the platform available to owners of private and business accounts. Both types of accounts will provide many similar functions, but are divided for taxation purposes and to simplify the calculation of fees and commissions. Owners of business accounts will have greater access to advertising tools on the platform and will be able to obtain various extra services in exchange for an optional monthly subscription fee; further, business accounts will face certain limitations on contacting private users to avoid spam.

From the Tripus ICO whitepaper (https://static.icoholder.com/files/26557/0e47d0ee51f5e73981bee41d8bbc38df.pdf):

Quote
The following subsections describe the main features of the platform available for the owners of personal accounts and businesses. Both types of accounts will provide similar functionality but is divided for tax purposes and to simplify the calculation of fees and commissions. Owners account will now have access to tools more ads on the platform and will be able to get many different additional services in exchange for a monthly subscription fee option; moreover, business accounts will face certain restrictions when contacting private users to prevent spam.

From your whitepaper:

Quote
The use of the most innovative digital technologies has been one of the prime movers of growth in the whole travel sector, creating online travel giants like AirBnb and TripAdvisor. In the yacht charter industry, there are some booking systems like Booking Manager, Nausys and Sedna. However, these projects are heavily centralised and consequently make the whole charter market fragmented - creating frustration for end users, guests and sailors. Also, these seemingly innovative projects may soon become outdated with the arrival of blockchain technology. Cryptocurrencies, decentralised structures and smart contracts will soon define the new face of the yacht charter industry.

From the Smart Trip Platform ICO (http://icoinrating.com/smart-trip-platform/):

Pretty much your entire white paper is plagiarized from a few different sources. Some are former ICOs. That's certainly a red flag for anybody considering investing in it. It means you haven't put forth the time to do your own research. It's lazy at best and fraud at worst.

An interesting service for recreation on yachts. I wonder how much it costs to spend a week on such a yacht. The service is not for the poor and not for people of moderate means. But interesting.

Do you plan to add a scale to the website showing the number of funds raised?

It depends on the class of the yacht, the skipper and the availability of entertainment elements on the yacht)) I looked at the first website on google search, the Caribbean Islands, the prices were from 1000 Euro to 15000 euros per day  :o

Actually, you have a wide range of options for this. From "cheap" and old boats to new and luxury yachts. The luxury yacht can easily set you back 100.000 EUR or more - per week of holidays. But you also have boats where you have similar experience (sailing holidays with island hopping) where you will spend 250-300 EUR per person per week - for the boat (+ food and skipper if you need one). So this is actually comparable to a hotel stay.

If you are interested in more details, let me know ... I can tell you more.

Thank you for nice, encouraging words! :-)

Yes, blockchain is needed in this industry. Not for everything - for some parts.

We plan to update page and the rest of marketing materials soon. For now you can see how many tokens are left - in real time. We will work on this in the future to give you better view.

So, prices on yachts range quite a lot. This depends on the built year (newer-older), size, extra equipment (generator, air-condition, solar power, remote autopilot, electrical winches, ... ), type (motorboat, sailboats, catamaran, gulet,...) and also a bit on location/marina. Prices also depend on time: pre-season, high season, post-season.

Prices for boat rental start from +-1.000 EUR per week.

 In general, the total price for renting a boat (sailing holidays) looks like this:
- price of boat rental (vary)
- obligatory extras (like final cleaning,...)
- optional extras (if you want them, like stand up paddle, outboard motor for dingy, snorkeling or fishing equipment,...)
- skipper +-1050 EUR per week + food (if you need one)
- cook +-1050 per week + food (if you want one)
- boat fuel (depends on how much you spend)
- food and drinks
- moorings and marina fees (if you go to marina, calculate 4-5 nights, around 100 EUR per boat per night)
- (security deposit for the boat - you get this back at the end)

Hi!

Yes, that is correct.

We have only started with marketing activities (of any kind) and publicly announced our project on 4th of February 2019 - both at the same time. No marketing was done before that. We are also on a really (!) tight budget, so we can not afford payed marketing to create hype - as other ICOs have done with big budget, creating hype though payed media and other channels for 6 moths or 1 year before their ICO.

We decided to out with our project with ICO (or public token crowdfunding) on 4th February. Even thou it is a bear market right now - not good for any crypto or ICO. But we will continue with our project no mater what happens. Even thou we have not received any serious founding until now, our development team is working on fist part of the platform - skipper/crew booking part. (actually we just started with development on Monday) The plan is to get this part out as soon as possible because there is a huge gap in the market here. And we have good connections with skippers/hostesses/chefs, as well as with charter companies that are looking for this kind of services - so we can get users to this part of platform relatively "easy" and quick.

Best regards,
Miha - funder of Yachtco

Hi!

Let me try to answer/comment this:

- We are doing this for yachting industry in which we are involved since 2014, not for 100 "hoping to get rich" crypto holders. The crowd that we are building this for, is not small.

- "Crypto world" is much more than crypto currency and trading. I am talking about smart contracts, ease of cross border payments, faster payments, less payment fees, adding the trust element with smart contracts and removing the doubt, removing scams from market, creating a dispute system (which currently is non-existent practically), ....and so on... 

- Collecting money will help us to build this thing faster and do some proper marketing and sales activities to get users/clients and start generating income and positive cash flow.

Best regards,
Miha

let's see, of course, what will come out of you in the end, but it seems to me that the chances of success with a negative market is very very very minimal. and im think you understand that most likely you will give one big loss to everyone who buys your project tokens.

So much negativity... why?

I mean I understand your concern. I really do. Everyone, every investor, has second thoughts. And I am sure there is a statistic somewhere of how many startups fail and how many crypto projects failed. And it is not good. And I guess we will see more of failed crypto projects in the future - there are a lot of reasons for that.

If you are talking about success of our ICO - that might happen. Will see. But, there are other ways to finance our project. And we planed for this. I know crypto market is far from good right now. I still decided to give it a try with public token offering in the height of crypto/ICO/STO bear market.

There are various advantages of public token offering - that is why we decided to give it a try first. The success of the Yachtco project is not dependant on our ICO success.

Luckily, yacht charter market is doing fine. As a matter of fact, this market was doing fine in the past when there were crises elsewhere (with little ups and downs).

So, you are right - we will see. Until then, we are slowly building our platform, even with no "outside" funding. It would be better and quicker if we could afford bigger team, marketing, etc... - you just have to work with what you have.

Best regards,
Miha

the idea is nice as renting a yacht by ordinary to middle-class individuals might be economical using this platform. however, what is the main advantage why the team chose to be under waves platform? i know using waves is pretty simple and straightforward, but as far as i know, there are not many users as compared to eth platform. i guess. but looking at your partners and suppliers, i believe you have the chance to grow this project via blockchain. did you by any chance already tested your network even in one of your partner company?

and it seems that the marketing department should be more aggressive selling your utility tokens. why not tap all the regular customers of your partner companies?

Except from ICO crowd, our end users are no in crypto/blockchain. So we will need to educate them. Especially users from supply side (boat owners, skippers,....). So it does not make any difference if ETH platform has many users.

When we decided on which blockchain solution to use, we took a serious look into all of them (EOS, Tron, Ethereum, Neo,...). Before choosing a platform, we had the end user in mind and there are several advantages of using Waves blockchain instead of any other:
- fast
- secure
- low cost transactions: Flat fees and no ‘gas’ (this one is especially important for us)
- Decentralized exchange included in wallet
- for developing complex dApps, Waves has 13 types of transactions available
- flexible
- dApps, smart accounts and smart assets availability
- wallet supports a range of fiat and cryptocurrencies, including USD, EURO, TRY, BTC, ETH, LTC, ZEC, BCH, BSV, DASH and XMR, all of which can be deposited, stored, traded and withdrawn

There are also some development benefits like scalability, token is already listed on DEX exchange (no need to spend insane amounts of money to get listed), customer support from Waves team,....

Our platform is not made yet. Development is planned for after we get some funding. So, we did not test anything in this regard - obviously. But, we did pitch the idea to majority of our partners and suppliers on expo, that is closed to the public - you can only attend it if you are in charter business. This expo is a weekend event. It was held in November - before we went out with our ICO - and I wanted to "test" the market before we do it. I had 32 meetings that weekend with our partners that are the biggest players in the business (boat owners, charter operators, ...) and they were all impressed with the idea and told us they will join and use our platform soon as it is developed. We had a plan to sign initial contracts with them on that event, but we abandoned that because we felt that it would be best we have something to show for before we do this.
On this event, talking directly to our end users from supply side, we also discovered some issues that they might have (like double work for updating their bookings availability) - and we found solutions for that too.

So, overall, we are set to do this and the market shows the need for this kind of solution. (I can not go more in details for now)

We are not selling our services or tokens to our partners at this stage because this are different people. They are not investors or involved in crypto or blockchain. Hence, some of them even have problems with website or email. I strongly believe that we need different approach with them - working product that they can see.

Best regards, Miha

So yachts + blockchain. Mmmm here smells like big money, I like this idea  8) So I looking at the site and see that there are a huge number of reasons for the introduction of blockchain in this area, congratulations, I think this is the first project on this topic. Do you plan to add a scale to the website showing the number of funds raised?
An interesting service for recreation on yachts. I wonder how much it costs to spend a week on such a yacht. The service is not for the poor and not for people of moderate means. But interesting.
It depends on the class of the yacht, the skipper and the availability of entertainment elements on the yacht)) I looked at the first website on google search, the Caribbean Islands, the prices were from 1000 Euro to 15000 euros per day  :o

the idea is nice as renting a yacht by ordinary to middle-class individuals might be economical using this platform. however, what is the main advantage why the team chose to be under waves platform? i know using waves is pretty simple and straightforward, but as far as i know, there are not many users as compared to eth platform. i guess. but looking at your partners and suppliers, i believe you have the chance to grow this project via blockchain. did you by any chance already tested your network even in one of your partner company?

and it seems that the marketing department should be more aggressive selling your utility tokens. why not tap all the regular customers of your partner companies?

Except from ICO crowd, our end users are no in crypto/blockchain. So we will need to educate them. Especially users from supply side (boat owners, skippers,....). So it does not make any difference if ETH platform has many users.

When we decided on which blockchain solution to use, we took a serious look into all of them (EOS, Tron, Ethereum, Neo,...). Before choosing a platform, we had the end user in mind and there are several advantages of using Waves blockchain instead of any other:
- fast
- secure
- low cost transactions: Flat fees and no ‘gas’ (this one is especially important for us)
- Decentralized exchange included in wallet
- for developing complex dApps, Waves has 13 types of transactions available
- flexible
- dApps, smart accounts and smart assets availability
- wallet supports a range of fiat and cryptocurrencies, including USD, EURO, TRY, BTC, ETH, LTC, ZEC, BCH, BSV, DASH and XMR, all of which can be deposited, stored, traded and withdrawn

There are also some development benefits like scalability, token is already listed on DEX exchange (no need to spend insane amounts of money to get listed), customer support from Waves team,....

Our platform is not made yet. Development is planned for after we get some funding. So, we did not test anything in this regard - obviously. But, we did pitch the idea to majority of our partners and suppliers on expo, that is closed to the public - you can only attend it if you are in charter business. This expo is a weekend event.
