Boat & watercraft rentals
Boat rental software from people who rent boats.
A boat on the trailer earns nothing. RecHQ keeps the service on schedule, the COI prep on a checklist, the crew on the clock and the checklists done, from one phone on the dock.
Built for the way boat rentals run
Gear that gets used hard, where a day in the shop is a day of lost revenue.
Downtime is the whole game
A dock hand reports the bilge pump with a photo. The ticket opens with a priority. Report it Inoperable and every lead and manager knows before the next rental.
The COI date sneaks up
Put the COI prep on a recurring checklist. Thirty days out, a ticket opens in the Ops Hub. Run the checklist boat by boat and walk in ready.
Service by engine hours
Set the 100 hour and 300 hour services once. Log hours. The ticket opens itself with the tasks and the parts on it.
New dock crew every season
Three courses assigned the day they're hired. Opening and closing checklists on their phone. The assistant answers the rest from your SOPs.
Inspections
USCG Certificate of Inspection (COI), on a checklist
For inspected passenger vessels, the Coast Guard COI is the date the season hangs on. RecHQ keeps it on a recurring checklist with the reminder built in.
Thirty days before the COI date, RecHQ opens a reminder ticket in the Ops Hub. A manager runs the checklist from Inspections and ticks it off item by item.
- Confirm hull, deck and machinery inspection items
- Verify lifejackets, ring buoys and required PFD counts
- Test fire extinguishers and fixed suppression systems
- Check navigation lights, sound signals and backfire flame control
- Review the stability letter and placarded capacity
- Confirm crew licensing and drill records are current
What boat rentals lean on
The RecHQ screens boat rentals use most.
Ops Hub
Every open ticket, overdue inspection, expiring credential and task waiting on a manager, on one screen, sorted by priority. Open it with your coffee and hand out the day.
Learn moreScheduled maintenance
Set the 300 hour service once. Log hours as the season goes. When a boat comes due, a ticket opens with the checklist and the parts already on it.
Learn moreSchedule
Drag shifts onto a week grid, copy last week, or apply a saved template. Publish, and the crew has it. Swaps, open shifts and time off come back to you to approve.
Learn moreLightning Delay
Drop a pin on your dock and set a radius. When cloud-to-ground lightning hits inside it, a 30-minute countdown goes up in every crew member's app and their phone buzzes. Each new strike restarts the clock. The all-clear pushes when it's over.
Learn moreInspections & credentials
Recurring readiness checklists per boat, credentials with expiry dates per person, and review dates on your documents. Each one opens a ticket in the Ops Hub before it's due.
Learn moreForms
Build the form once. Staff fill it in on their phone, or hand the phone over for a signature. Every submission is kept with the answers as they were that day.
