BoatMonkey was founded by Eddy Lekens out of necessity for a reliable platform to sell unused watersport products. Over the years, Eddy accumulated a collection of items in his garage, basement, and attic from his sailing adventures. His wife, however, was not pleased with the clutter.

After struggling with other marketplaces like Marktplaats.nl, eBay, and Facebook, Eddy realized the need for a better solution. He found that dealing with constant bids and insecure payment methods was impractical, especially when selling many items. Going to physical markets was also time-consuming and not effective.

Thus, BoatMonkey was born—a secure marketplace where sellers can set fixed prices and buyers can pay through trusted European payment providers. This platform not only simplifies the selling process but also promotes sustainability by giving products a second life, reducing the need for new production and conserving resources.
