History of the app
It all started on a sunny afternoon in early June 2012, when I passed my Swiss sailing exam in Versoix. Drinking a beer at the bar in Port Choiseul, the idea of creating an app for Lake Geneva was born. A big team across countries helped to make it happen, and after about 800 hours of work, it was ready.
