Nava is raising $1.2M on Net Capital to build the on-demand water-transit layer for Miami — the commute upgrade the worst-traffic city in America has been waiting for. Riders skip the bridges. Owners and captains earn on every trip. Investors own the network before anyone else can.
Same price. A third of the time. And on peak days the ground alternative can go 10× surge with a 20-minute pickup wait.
Miami is wired for water. Bays, canals, and the Intracoastal tie every marina, condo, restaurant, and venue together. And yet it has the second-worst traffic in America — a small city with global pull and no resolution in sight. Until now.
Passages and waterways connect every major venue, residential building, restaurant, marina, and attraction. The roads connecting them don’t keep up.
On-demand private boats connecting every marina, condo, venue, and restaurant on the water. A data and partnership network, locked in city by city, before anyone else can.
A full team with 40+ combined years across emerging tech, web & app development, AI, yacht fleet management, chartering, and maritime law — combining to shift how Miami commutes.
