And special thanks to the Quartermaster team, our customers, and fleet partners who were instrumental in us getting this far. If you want to learn more about Quartermaster and how we’re filling the data gap in the ocean, I sat down with TechCrunch to chat about our raise.

[Neil Sobin @SobinNeil]

The ocean carries 80% of global trade and covers 71% of the planet, yet it remains one of the least instrumented environments on Earth.

Today we're announcing that Quartermaster has raised $43M in Series A funding, co-led by @firstround and @QuietCapital to close that gap.

Along the way, our network has helped assist in more than 20 rescues of mariners at sea. Thank you again to our investors TMV Logistics, @BoxGroup, @SteelAtlasVC, Operator Partners, Shorewind Capital, and @david_adelman.
