On March 23, 2026, Off The Hook YS Inc. (NYSE American: OTH) announced the launch of NextBoat AI, a groundbreaking artificial intelligence platform designed to revolutionize the boat buying and selling process. This innovative platform will be showcased at the Palm Beach International Boat Show from March 25 to 29, 2026. NextBoat AI aims to streamline the process for consumers by utilizing AI-driven matching technology and proprietary market data to help buyers identify and acquire their ideal boats more efficiently. The platform has been developed over the past two years, initially as an internal tool, and has been refined through thousands of transactions. It leverages extensive proprietary market data, including off-market opportunities and current inventory, to provide real-time matches tailored to user preferences. Blake Phillips, COO of Off The Hook Yachts, emphasized the competitive advantage of their data and transaction flow, stating that the platform enhances liquidity across their ecosystem, connecting buyers and sellers faster than traditional brokerage models. Attendees at the boat show will have the opportunity to experience NextBoat AI firsthand at an interactive display featuring large touchscreen stations. The company is also hosting a giveaway for a brand-new Sea-Doo Spark 2-Seater to celebrate the launch, with the winner announced via livestream at the conclusion of the show. This launch is expected to significantly impact the marine industry by addressing core inefficiencies in inventory discovery and transaction cycles, marking a notable advancement in marketplace efficiency.
