User Reviews

OnBuoy is praised for being easy to use with strong Puget Sound coverage. Users can book private buoys and marina slips, as well as reference public buoys, with buoy inspections increasing safety and reducing worry about anchoring. The 'Airbnb for buoys' concept resonates for spontaneous trips and community-driven moorage, backed by solid customer support and helpful map features including pump outs and fuel docks. Overall, it's a convenient, environmentally friendlier alternative to traditional anchoring that users want to expand to other regions.

Recent reviews
I boat all over Puget Sound and have used OnBuoy for trips planned in advance and also for extending a trip on the fly when I wanted one more night out. I've used it to book private buoys as well as marina slips, and the coverage in the Puget Sound area is solid. Overall the app is pretty easy to use. The website also does a good job of explaining the small details. That matters when you don't want surprises. What surprised me most is how much more comfortable I feel tying to a private buoy when I know it's been inspected. That detail alone changes the "math" versus anchoring; I don’t wake up in the middle of the night wondering if my anchor is holding. Highly recommend for any boater.

This is the app I’ve been waiting for. Airbnb for buoys, done right. Easy to use, practical when you actually need it, and built around a real sense of community. Bonus points for responsive, thoughtful customer support.
