Who it's for

Sailing has never been short of boats. Just of introductions.

Somewhere in your harbour a skipper is one person short, and somebody else is at home because they don't know them.

You have the boat

"Six seats, four sailors, and it's already Thursday."

Post the seats you're missing, invite your regulars with one tap, and see exactly who has confirmed before you leave the dock.

You have the hands

"I can trim, I can helm. I just don't own a boat."

Browse the seats open near you, apply for the job you actually know how to do, and build a record every single time you sail.

You just got here

"New job, new city, and my sailing network is 2,000 km away."

The races, training sessions and passages leaving this weekend are already listed. Arrive as a stranger, leave as crew.

Somewhere in your harbour, someone is one crew short this weekend.

Open seats

Every seat has a name and a job.

A crew list isn't "anyone free Saturday?". Each seat carries the role it needs — helm, bow, trimmer, tactician — so people apply for the job they can actually do, and you can see the gap at a glance.

  • Open seats show in orange until they're filled
  • Attendance and no-shows are visible before you accept
  • Crew without an account still get a seat, kept for them

Races

Races that end in a result, not a group chat.

Publish a race or join one that's already up. Enter with your sail number, sail the legs, then log the finish — and everyone who was aboard confirms it themselves, so the record actually means something.

  • Classes, legs and sail-number entry
  • Finishing position, fleet size and crew on every result
  • Season podium built from confirmed results only

Passages

The miles that don't fit in an afternoon.

Deliveries, crossings, a week down the coast. Passages get their own kind of listing — departure date, route, how many nights, how many berths — because signing up for five days offshore is not the same as signing up for Saturday.

  • Route, dates and berths on the card, before you ask
  • See the skipper's history and who else is signed on
  • Offshore miles land in your logbook like any other sail

Boats

Every boat has a page, and a memory.

A boat isn't a line of text in a message. It's an entry with a class, a length, a home dock, photos, papers, a permanent crew and every race it has ever sailed — and every mention of it anywhere in the app is a door to that page.

  • Class, length, home port and the exact dock
  • Papers checked, so crew know what they're stepping onto
  • Owners add managers who can post seats and log results

Groups & clubs

Your fleet, your club, your usual crowd.

Groups hold the people who sail together: a one-design fleet, a club, the four of you who always do Thursday nights. Each has its own chat, its own boats, its own events and its own season table.

  • Live chat, open or invite-only
  • Owner, admin and member roles for whoever runs it
  • Events posted to the group land in every member's feed

Your logbook

Every sail counted, without a single sensor.

Hit record and your phone's GPS does the rest — distance, top speed, time on the water, the track you sailed. It lands in your logbook, on the boat's page and in your friends' feed, where the only currency is kudos.

  • Weekly targets and a streak of active weeks
  • Separate logs for training and for races
  • Lifetime totals: sails, races, podiums, classes sailed

For clubs

A fuller start line is worth more than a nicer poster.

A verified club page, official races with classes and sail-number entry, and a season table that updates itself. Free while we're in alpha; a season plan after that, from €300/year.
