History
Cruzin was founded in October 2012 in San Francisco, CA. In the midst of accelerated growth in the peer-to-peer marketplace models (otherwise called collaborative consumption models) such as Airbnb and others, Cruzin was founded with the aim of helping people find pre-screened boats for rent across the United States. The company's initial investment came through angel investors in the US and Switzerland.
The beta version of the site went live in March 2013.
The site went live to all users across the United States in June 2013.
