Check My Boat

Check My Boat is an offline checklist app for skippers accepting a charter yacht or catamaran at the start of a sailing trip.

Charter check-in is rushed and easy to mess up. Important things get missed, damage goes undocumented, and you sign off before you're actually confident the boat is in the condition you were promised. Check My Boat fixes that by walking you through a structured, zone-by-zone inspection — so you check everything once, in the right order, without backtracking through the boat.

HOW IT WORKS

The app guides you through the boat in a logical physical sequence: starting at the marina table with documents, moving below decks, through the engine compartment, into the cockpit, around the exterior, up the mast, through safety equipment, and back to where you started. No jumping around, no forgetting to check something because you already walked past it.

For catamarans, the app handles both engines with a simple repeat pass — no duplicated checklists, just go through the engine checks twice.

KEY FEATURES

> 100% offline — no internet connection needed, works anywhere in the marina

> Zone-by-zone guided flow covering the whole boat: documents, 12V/220V systems, cabins, heads, galley, engine(s), steering, exterior (stern, sides, bow), windlass, rig and sails, safety equipment

> Mark each item as OK, not OK, or missing as you go

> Capture defect photos on the spot, automatically annotated with timestamp, checklist location, and your comment

> Annotated photos are saved directly to your phone's gallery, so you keep your own copy outside the app

> Built-in checklist covering 100+ items based on real charter inspection practice in Mediterranean and Turkish charter regions

> Generates a clear English summary report at the end, so you have a record regardless of what language you used during the inspection

> Designed for casual skippers who charter once or twice a year and want to feel confident, not overwhelmed

> No account, no subscription, no ads, no data sent anywhere — your inspection stays on your device

WHO IT'S FOR

If you're a recreational skipper picking up a monohull or catamaran from a charter base and want a calm, structured way to make sure nothing important gets missed before you sign the handover paperwork, this app is built for exactly that moment.

Check My Boat does not replace your charter company's official handover checklist or contract. Always go through the official paperwork with the charter manager and use Check My Boat as your own backup to catch anything that might otherwise slip through.
