We’ve got exciting news to share: our company has officially transitioned from Bottle Top Studios Ltd to Maritime Master Limited.
This change comes as part of a recent sale and the arrival of new investors, marking the beginning of a new chapter for our apps, our team, and our community.
🌊 Why the change?
When we started out as Bottle Top Studios Ltd, we were a creative studio experimenting with digital learning, design, and training tools. Over time, one project stood out: Maritime Master.
It grew from a single app into a family of products Maritime Master, OOW, Whiteboard, and now the upcoming Skipper. Maritime education and training became more than just one of our projects; it became the heart of our mission.
That’s why, when the opportunity arose to bring in new investors, we took it. This sale allows us to:
Focus fully on maritime education
Scale faster, with more resources for development
Invest in new features and modules across all apps
Expand into new markets (both professional and recreational)
Rebranding as Maritime Master Limited signals that focus loud and clear.
🔍 What this means for you
No disruption – Your apps, purchases, and access remain unchanged. Everything you’ve bought or downloaded still works as before.
Some name crossovers – For a little while, you may still see Bottle Top Studios Ltd on receipts, app store listings, or older documents. This is simply part of the transition and will phase out.
More growth ahead – With new investors on board, we’ll be able to bring updates faster, add fresh content, and release new apps including Maritime Master – Skipper for small craft and day skippers.
Same team, bigger horizon – The same developers, educators, and support staff remain on deck. What’s changing is our capacity to grow.
🚀 What’s next?
With our new structure, we’ll be doubling down on the things that matter most:
Supporting professional mariners with tools like OOW
Helping small craft owners and day skippers learn with the upcoming Skipper app
Equipping instructors and training centres with tools like Whiteboard
Ensuring all our content stays up to date with the latest regulations and best practices
🧭 Final Thoughts
This name change isn’t just about branding. It’s about growth, investment, and commitment to the maritime community.
By moving from Bottle Top Studios Ltd to Maritime Master Limited, we’re aligning our company identity with our flagship product, and giving ourselves the resources to build even better training tools for sailors, skippers, and officers everywhere.
So, if you notice a little crossover between the old and new names over the next few months — don’t worry. It’s all part of the transition. What matters is that we’re stronger than ever, and we’re excited to grow with you.
Here’s to the next chapter, and to mastering the sea, together.
