Captain is a growing collection of micro apps built for boaters — from departure checklists and maintenance logs to community connections and budget tracking.
Each tool does one thing well. Use the ones that suit you.
Post questions to boaters who are best placed to answer — grouped by home port, cruising grounds, boat type, manufacturer, and model. Get help from people who've been exactly where you are.
Build your personal boat-visit packing list once and reuse it every time. No more turning back for forgotten fenders or running out of gas.
Step-by-step checklists to get your boat ready for the season and verify everything before you leave the dock. Customise them to your vessel.
Track everything that needs doing, everything that's been done, and what's coming up next. Log parts, costs, and notes against each job.
Keep a clear eye on what your boat actually costs — marina fees, fuel, maintenance, insurance, and everything in between. No more surprises.
Record every journey — departure point, destination, distance, crew, weather, and notes. Build a complete history of your time on the water.
Your questions go to boaters who are most likely to have the answer.
Ask the boaters berthed alongside you. Need a hand, a spare part, or local knowledge? The people most likely to help are already nearby.
Ask boaters who know your waters. First-hand answers on anchorages, tides, facilities, and hazards from people who've actually been there.
Ask owners of the same make and model. Quirks, known issues, fixes, and modifications — the answers you need from the people who've already figured it out.
Captain is available on web, iOS, and Android.
Captain is a bootstrapped project built by boaters, for boaters. We're building features in the open and handing more control to the community as we grow.
Follow our ideas and feature developments on our Trello board.
Look out for this button on boating sites and forums — it means there's a Captain micro app that can help.
