Direct peers

• Mokumboot: Amsterdam-based electric self-serve boat rental operator on the canals. Closely comparable model: self-skippered electric sloeps rented to consumers without a license, with similar booking and deposit mechanics.
• De Gracht: Amsterdam canal rental company offering electric sloops to leisure customers. Comparable product, customer segment, and self-serve rental GTM.
• Canal Motorboats: Amsterdam canal boat rental offering license-free electric motorboats to tourists and locals. Comparable on product (small electric boats), target customer (leisure consumers), and self-serve rental model.
• Rent A Boat Amsterdam: Amsterdam operator renting small electric and motorboats to individuals and groups on the canals. Directly comparable on self-serve recreational boating offering and Dutch geographic market.

Regional players

• Boat Bike Tours: Dutch-founded operator combining barge cruises and bicycle tours across the Netherlands. Adjacent Dutch water-based leisure brand, though focused on multi-day guided package tours rather than self-serve hourly rentals.
• Botenverhuur Loosdrecht: Dutch boat rental operator based at the Loosdrecht lakes. Comparable Dutch recreational boat rental offering but serving a different waterway geography (lakes vs. urban canal).

Others

• LeisureKing: Online booking platform Sloepverhuur Vathorst uses for reservations. Ecosystem enabler rather than a competitor; relevant because platform-level integrations and traffic flows affect the operator's customer acquisition.
