Never Get Caught with Expired Crew Credentials

Avoid the nightmare scenario: a high-value charter booked, and your captain's license expired last week. Track every certification, medical, and passport for your entire crew. Get automated alerts before expirations so you're never scrambling—or worse, grounded.

  • Centralized crew profiles with roles and credentials
  • Certification and license expiration tracking
  • Medical certificates and passport validity monitoring
  • Proactive expiration alerts and notifications
  • Calendar integration showing compliance deadlines

Robust Safety Procedures That Actually Get Followed

Stop worrying about missed safety steps or inconsistent procedures. Create templated checklists for every critical operation—from pre-charter safety briefings to engine room inspections. New crew execute flawlessly, and you have documented proof that procedures were followed when insurance or regulators come asking.

  • Customizable checklist templates for any procedure
  • Automated scheduling and triggers for routine checks
  • Photo documentation of completed items
  • Complete history for audits and compliance
  • Equipment and inventory verification built-in

Never Run Out of Critical Supplies Mid-Charter

Avoid the panic of discovering you're out of a guest's preferred champagne—or worse, critical medical supplies—three days into a charter. Track inventory with minimum stock alerts, know exactly where everything is stored, and maintain supplier contacts for quick reordering.

  • Comprehensive supply and medical inventory tracking
  • Low stock alerts before you run out
  • Storage location management—find what you need fast
  • Usage history to predict provisioning needs
  • Supplier contact database for quick reordering

Complete Records That Protect Your Operation

When an insurance claim or legal dispute arises, scrambling for documentation is too late. Maintain comprehensive records of every log, incident, maintenance action, and operational decision. Demonstrate professionalism to vessel owners, protect yourself legally, and learn from past issues to prevent future ones.

  • Daily logbook and detailed navigation records
  • Incident reports with full documentation and photos
  • Equipment maintenance history and service records
  • Parts and supply usage audit trail
  • Searchable history for quick reference and analysis
