Tailored service story
Services organized around this audience’s actual work.
This version keeps the navigation functional and service-led, while adapting language, metrics, tasks, and operating examples to harbor master.
Berth, mooring, and anchorage assignment
Match vessel requirements to availability, restrictions, service needs, and local operating constraints.
Assignment logic
Supports berth suitability notes, power/water needs, draft, LOA, duration, and conflict flags.
Permit and document review
Track transient applications, commercial permits, insurance, certificates, crew/guest documents, and missing items.
Review workflow
Queues can separate submitted, incomplete, under review, approved, and declined items.
Harbor notices and advisories
Publish operational notices, restriction zones, dock closures, weather impacts, maintenance work, and safety updates.
Notice routing
Send notices to affected vessel classes, tenants, staff, vendors, or berth zones.
Common pain points
What gets in the way today.
Arrivals by phone and paper
The movement picture lives in a logbook and a dozen calls.
Berth and permit status scattered
Assignments, permits, and notices sit in separate lists.
Shift handover loses context
What changed during a shift is hard to hand off cleanly.

Working together
How you interact with other roles.
Visiting vessels & agents
Intake arrivals and requirements in one place.
Marina & property teams
Coordinate berths and services.
Vendors
Scoped to permitted work.
Example workflow
A typical run, start to finish.
Take the arrival
Queue the movement and its requirements.
Assign
Berth, mooring, or anchorage.
Review
Permits and documents.
Publish & hand over
Notices out; a clean shift handover.
Privacy & permissioning
Public-facing and internal views are separate; sensitive detail stays with the office.
Guest and invited access is approval-gated and scoped — never open public signup.
Discretion
Scoped access, by design.
Everyone invited into your operation sees only what their role needs. The operating file stays yours.
Questions
Frequently asked.
Is this a public booking system?
No — it is a harbor operating picture for arrivals, berths, permits, and notices, not a public reservation widget.
Can we manage permits and documents?
Yes — a review queue keeps permit and document status in one place.
How do notices reach vessels?
Notices and advisories are published to the vessels and agents they apply to.
Does it help with shift handover?
Yes — what changed during a shift is visible for a clean handover.
