What a first build could look like in Annapolis
Picture an Annapolis marine service, rigging and electronics installer working sailboats and power yachts across Eastport, Edgewater and Severna Park marinas. Boat owners submit vessel details and slip numbers through an online service portal, technicians log equipment serials and bilge/helm photos on a mobile checklist, and captains approve estimates remotely.
