The berth is the address

Owners choose the marina, the mooring or their own drive, take a slot your run leaves open, and note down how anyone is meant to get aboard.

Smart scheduling

One marina, one walk down the pontoon

Boats in the same marina fall on the same day, so the drive and the long walk out are paid for once rather than four separate times.

The call that will not keep.

A boat that will not start with people aboard is a safety matter. With nothing left on the page it arrives as a request, not a lost call.

  • A request rather than a voicemail

    The owner sets out what happened and where she is lying. You take it into the day or decline it, in the thread, without ringing back.

  • Nothing offered that you cannot make

    The page shows only the windows your hours and your existing run leave open, so a full Saturday in season is never sold twice over.

  • The account comes with the boat

    Accepting it makes a real booking against that owner and that hull, carrying what they told you straight through onto the job.

She died on the way back in and we got towed. Any chance you can get to her tomorrow?

The tide moves, so the day moves.

The yard puts a lift back an hour and the boat you had at eleven is aground until three. Drag her across and the rest keeps its windows.

  • Drag it to water you can reach

    Move a job to another time or another engineer and the day rebuilds around it. That is on the Free plan, not something you upgrade for.

  • An arrival window, not a promise

    A mobile job carries a window rather than a time, which is about as much as anyone should promise someone whose boat has to be walked to.

  • Nothing lands on top of itself

    Two jobs cannot sit on one person at one time. The database declines it outright rather than warning you and letting it through.

Built for the water

Every job you take on

Afloat service at a pontoon berth

Oil, filters, impeller and anodes with her still in the water. The steady work, and most of the owners who ring you again.

Antifoul on the hardstanding

The yard lifts her out, you pressure wash, key back and put two coats on, the yard drops her in. Two visits around days you do not own.

Winterisation and lay-up

Drain, fog, antifreeze in the raw water side and the batteries off, booked as its own autumn job on every hull you look after.

Spring fit-out and recommissioning

The other half of the year: impellers, belts, seacocks and a run-up, all wanted in the same fortnight by everybody at once.

Outboard service on a trailed boat

A RIB on the drive at home, with a proper street address, an outside tap you may use and no gate code to chase.

Breakdown afloat

Not an inconvenience but a safety matter. A boat that will not start with a family aboard goes to the front of the day.

Sterndrive bellows before she goes back in

Hardstanding work against a hard date, because she cannot be craned in until it is done and the yard wants the space back.

Fuel polishing and filter change

Diesel bug after a long lay-up. Drain, polish, filters and a run-up, quoted before you break the first union.

Sea trial after a rebuild

An hour off the berth with the owner aboard, booked as its own job rather than disappearing into the workshop time before it.

Pre-purchase engine survey

A buyer wants the engine gone through before the money moves. A defined inspection with a written report, priced up front.

Anodes and hoses on a swinging mooring

A mooring reached only by tender and only around the tide, so the slot has to carry the trip out as well as the work.

The boat has a file, the owner has a phone.

Hulls outlive their owners. Engine hours, the anode condition and what you found last time sit on the vessel, so the next service is planned rather than diagnosed.

One marina, one drive.

The drive and the walk down the pontoon cost the same for one boat or four, so the day already going that way ought to get the work.

The one job with a normal address.

A trailer boat on the drive at home is the job that genuinely books itself: a street address, a price, and a slot your run already leaves open.

The same hull, three ways of doing it.

A wash and one coat, a full key back and two, or back to the gelcoat and start again. Set them out and let the owner choose.

  • The routine work prices itself

    A service, an impeller, a set of anodes and an outboard hour-check each carry their own price and their own length, on any plan.

  • Three specifications on one document

    Three antifoul specifications on one document, each with its own lines and price and the one you would actually do marked as recommended. Options come with Pro.

  • Accepted by typing their name

    The owner signs it off online, name and time recorded, and the accepted quote becomes booked work without a second call from the car park.

A lift-out, two coats and a launch on one document, ready to send.

Settled before she goes back in.

Cash and a bank transfer cost nothing to record. A card wants Pro, and the money goes to your own account rather than sitting with us.

  • Cash and transfer are free

    Note down what the owner handed over, against the hull and the job it paid for, on the Free plan and without a card of your own.

  • Or send the link once she is running

    A payment request goes out as a signed link the owner settles with no account and no app, from the desk they are sitting at.

  • Split a lift-out into stages

    A payment when she comes out and the balance when she goes back in, each with its own due date and its own link. Stages come with Pro.

A list of payments, each with the customer, reference, date, method and amount, with totals received and still outstanding.

The owner is at work, and that is fine.

Nobody meets you at the gate and nobody sees the job. What you found has to reach them later, in one place, without a phone call neither of you has time for.

  • One thread per boat

    Every question about that vessel sits against the vessel, so a message in March still makes sense when you open her up in September.

  • Photos of what you found

    Notes and photos go on the record as internal posts, so the next mechanic sees the corroded lug even though the owner never did.

  • They read it that evening

    A request answered, a quote sent or a payment link goes out as a link, settled from an office rather than from the end of a pontoon.

One app for the whole job

Everything you need to run your mobile boat mechanic business.

Online booking

Your own page where an owner picks the work, names the marina or the yard, and takes a slot your existing run genuinely leaves open.

Scheduling

Lift-out dates and the state of the tide move the day, so drag a boat to a time you can reach her and the rest keeps its windows.

Bookings

Every boat you are on this week in one list, from accepted through afloat to finished, with the berth and the way in on each one.

Inbox

Every message about a boat in one thread against that boat, and the work you cannot fit answered where the owner asked for it.

Estimates

Itemise the lift, the wash, the keying back and the coats, send it as a link, and let the owner accept it online from the office.

Customers

Owners change and hulls do not, so the engine hours, the anode condition and last winter’s notes live on the vessel, not on a number.

Territories

Claim the areas around the marinas, yards and slipways you work, so an address you would never drive to cannot book itself a slot.

Team

Each engineer with their own hours and their own work, so a hardstanding job only lands on somebody who can genuinely do it.

Payments

Record the cash and the transfer by hand for nothing, or take the card once she is back afloat. Cards are the one part that needs Pro.

Common questions.

The boat is her own record under the owner, carrying the marina, the pontoon and berth, the gate code and where the trolley lives. The booking hangs off the vessel, so the way in turns up with the job.

You can, and it is the only honest way to draw an antifoul on a calendar. Two bookings against one hull with the yard’s days sitting between them, rather than one block that has stopped being true by Wednesday.

The diary does not read a tide table, but you can move work to the hours you can reach it: drag a job to another time or another engineer, and the arrival window the owner was given moves with it.

Yes. Claim the areas around the marinas and yards you work and an address outside them cannot serve itself a slot. It settles who may book, not what anybody is charged for the distance.

The routine work prices itself and takes only slots your run leaves open, and anything that will not fit arrives as a request to accept or decline in the thread rather than as a voicemail.
