In this Founder Podcast Series episode, produced in collaboration with Yachting Ventures and Marine Industry News, Ben Taylor and Gabriella Richardson speak with Thomas Frizlen, founder of Swiss Ocean Tech, the company behind AnchorGuardian. Filmed onboard the beautiful M/Y ON TIME, hosted by Boatsters Black, this conversation explores how a sailor’s personal frustration became a proactive anchor monitoring system for superyachts. Thomas discusses hardware and software development, fundraising, product-market fit, captain adoption, certification, distribution, and the shift from startup promise to operational traction. Essential listening for marine professionals tracking safety technology, superyacht innovation, sustainability, and founder-led growth. 


Key Points:

  • AnchorGuardian turns anchoring risk into actionable data.
  • Hardware startups face longer fundraising cycles.
  • Captain trust drives superyacht technology adoption.
