Description (French)
Pour renforcer le potentiel de Wavve Boating en matière de navigation maritime, le développement de fonctionnalités de partage de routes, de réseaux d'amis et d'améliorations aux infrastructures existantes sera poursuivi. Les résultats de ce projet déboucheront une innovation au-delà des attentes du plaisancier moyen et permettront de transformer véritablement la navigation de plaisance en silo en une activité axée sur la communauté, faisant ainsi croître notre plate-forme de la communauté nautique de manière exponentielle.
