Renting boats is more than filling a calendar
Like a harbor at sunrise, a rental base lines up boats, slots and staff toward one goal: getting the fleet out without a hitch. When bookings arrive by phone, email and a rough shared calendar, the dock turns chaotic: double booking, client without a boat, forgotten deposit.
- See each boat or jet-ski availability in real time, half-day or full-day.
- Avoid double bookings between desk, website and partners (camps, tourist offices).
- Manage deposits, options and requirements (license, briefing) without re-entry.
- Run the summer season: July–August peaks, maintenance and technical downtime.
- Collect at the dock and online, then track revenue and balances for management.

From online booking to return at the dock
- Before season — You set up the fleet, slots (half-day, full-day), pricing and deposits; you open direct and partner sales.
- At the desk — Online and walk-in bookings reflect on the same schedule; the team knows what leaves and when it returns.
- At departure — Briefing, check-in/out and payment (deposit, balance) per your process.
- Summer peak — Fewer calls asking “what's left tomorrow?”: availability is current for everyone.
- Close-out — Invoicing, payment tracking and exports for management and accounting.
