Press play on any screen below to watch it work: a short narrated recording of the real app, no signup.
Your morning, on one screen
Open the app to today's stops in order, what they should bring in, and which boat is next. Below that, one Needs attention list: payments to collect, boats overdue, jobs ready to charge, new requests, and stock below target. Then the month's pace: what is done, what is billed, and where the month is heading.
One look over coffee and you know the day. Nothing waits on a screen you forgot to check.
Dispatch board
See the week, two weeks or the whole month, assign jobs to divers and drag them between days, or move a whole day when the weather turns. After a short day the board lists the boats you missed and moves them to today, or spreads them over the next work days at your usual pace. Nothing moves until you tap.
Plan the week once. Stop re-planning it in your head at dinner.
Log service at the dock
Record the work when you finish it: hull condition, growth level, the anodes you replaced, and before and after video. Turn on the streamlined log in Settings for about 8 taps instead of 14, with one-tap All clear and No findings answers and the boat's prop and coating remembered. The log becomes the customer record and the basis for the bill.
Sixty seconds of taps at the dock. Zero write-ups at the kitchen table.
Charge from the ledger
Every completed job lands in the billing ledger, on your phone or at a desk. Review the amount, then charge the card on file, send the invoice, or just send the report, right from the visit. Or tap Bill all unbilled: one confirm lists every amount before anything goes out. The customer gets the line items and condition notes either way. When anodes are due on a separate visit, or you will be back for a return visit, the receipt or invoice tells the owner what comes next, without a phone call.
Billed the day of the dive. Paid faster, and never chasing a lost invoice.
Track parts and replenish
Count anodes and parts as you use them. Set a Target on hand for each item and the app flags anything below target, with the exact quantity needed to replenish.
The app minds the stock, so your Sunday is not a trip to check the van.
Every boat has a history
Open a boat to see its dimensions, its owner, and every visit logged against it. Its service plan sits on the same screen: pause it for the winter, resume it, change how often you come, or cancel. Tap the next visit date to move it to today, tomorrow or any day you pick, and the schedule and the route follow. The history stays with the boat, including when ownership changes hands.
Answer any owner's question from the dock, not from a filing cabinet at home.
The difference
Per boat anode manifest
Each boat carries its own anode manifest. Track the location and position of every anode, and how often it needs replacing. When you service the boat you already know which anodes it takes and which ones are due.
You arrive already knowing the boat. Owners notice, and they stay.
A new customer in ninety seconds
Quote requests, messages and booking requests from your SailorSkills.com page land at the top of Leads, next to the clients you capture at the dock. Call, text or email them back, or tap Add as lead and the new client form opens already filled in. At the dock, capture a new client with their boat and how often they want service. The estimate builds from your own rate card as you type, and one tap creates the client and a link to send them.
Every inquiry in one list, none lost in your email. Quote them while they are still on the dock.
Your divers, your colleagues, and payroll
Give every diver their own login, at no extra cost. When you cannot get to a boat, post it to a trusted colleague on the Exchange and it lands on their schedule. Every visit goes onto payroll at the agreed share, whether you, a diver or a colleague did it, so the payroll view shows what the business earned, what your divers and colleagues are owed, and what is left for the owner.
A sick day or a full week no longer means letting a customer down.
Want to see it with your own boats?
Start free with up to 15 boats of your own. Or book a call, and we walk through the app with your boats and your pricing and set it up with you.

Questions
How do I get started?
Sign up and you are in your workspace in a few minutes, on the Free plan or Pro. Home then shows a Set up your business checklist: add your logo and brand color, import your boats, connect Stripe payouts, review your service prices, and log your first service. If you would rather have help, book a call and we set up your workspace, add your boats, and connect Stripe together.
My boats are in a spreadsheet or another app. Do I retype them?
No. Import a spreadsheet of your boats, from Excel, Google Sheets or an export of what you use today: boat names, lengths, owners, slips and how often each one is serviced. Or send it to us and we bring it in for you.
What does "nothing to do when you get home" actually mean?
The log you make at the dock IS everything else. It becomes the customer's report, the invoice, the service history, and the payroll record, all from one entry made in about 60 seconds. There is no second pass at a desk, because there is nothing left to pass over.
Do my customers need an account?
No. You charge the card on file, and the customer receives a receipt by email with the work logged and the amount charged.
What does it run on?
Native apps for iPhone and Android, now in pilot, and any browser on a laptop or tablet. Field logging works from the dock, including on a shared tablet with a PIN.
Can all my divers use it?
Yes, on Pro, and adding a diver never changes the price. Each diver gets their own login, jobs are attributed to whoever did the work, and revenue splits by each diver's share.
What counts as a boat?
An active boat of your own: one you are servicing on a subscription or a one-time job. Inactive boats do not count, and a boat a colleague sends you through the Exchange counts toward their bill, not yours. The Free plan covers up to 15 of your own boats at no cost.
Does my crew have to use it in English?
No. Each person picks English or Brazilian Portuguese for their own login, so one crew can work in both.
What if there is no signal at the dock?
The iPhone and Android app, now in pilot, saves the log on the phone with no signal and uploads it on its own later. In a browser, saving a log needs a connection.
Where does the money go?
Cards are charged through your own Stripe account at Stripe's published rate, and payouts go straight to you. SailorSkills takes no cut of your payments. Customers who pay by check, Venmo or cash have their own path.
Can I cancel?
Yes. You can cancel at any time, and your access continues through the end of the current billing period. Monthly plans renew monthly; annual plans are billed once per year.
Is it only for hull cleaning?
It is built for hull cleaning and dive service work. Scheduling, logging, billing, inventory, and the per boat anode manifest are all shaped around how a dive operation runs, not a generic field service app.
