Awful app
Nothing nice to say
Best in the Business
I have been in this business for about 15 years now. There are a plethora of Booking platforms that I work with, and there are pros and cons to each of them. Boatsetter to me remains superior to all the rest.. The ease of use of the platform on both the renter side and the owner side is very streamlined. Customer Service when needed answers at relatively reasonable hours and it’s pretty easy to get someone on the phone. If there are ever claims or damages, both that are is very quick to respond and distribute payments accordingly. Owner payouts and crew payouts are within a couple business days after the Charter which I love. The most importantly, this platform probably gets me the most bookings out of any of the other platforms.. I am team Boatsetter all the way.

Maybe it’ll work someday
Maybe it works for people renting the boats, but for the captains, absolute miserable waste of time.
No business
I love BoatSetter but I don’t get any business from it
Amazing app
Great app easy to book
App bugs
The app won’t load my messages or won’t load at all. I get a text or email about a request but can’t deny/approve bc the app won’t load.

Great app!
Great Opportunity not so great technology
I love the idea of using you luxury liabilities you have to generate income, turning them into an asset is fantastic. Unfortunately the app is poorly designed, won’t allow me to enter the details for my boat and therefore can’t actually be used without other intervention.
Boat Owner
Best App rentals 😍
Fees galore
For example: list your boat for $100/hr for 8 hours. App charges renter almost $1,100 and owner receives less than $600. listing fee, insurance charged to both parties. A bit silly.
Great Way to Rent a Boat
BoatSetter is an excellent and easy site to use to rent a boat. High quality folks at BoatSetter.
Bad bad
What a joke of an app… all they do is spam. I own an 80 foot yacht and this app is trash

They won’t pay for the charter I did for them. About 2 months ago. Keep saying they a w-9 I’ve sent it to them 3 times
I wish you could be the AIRB.B competitor
I’m so happy about the way this company handle and protect the owners. I wish you could expand to the short term rental field. I’m sure you’ll get a bunch of hosts that are so tired in the negligent and partial way platform as AIRB.B handle things. I wish I could give you 10 stars and I wish I could have my short term rental listings with you one day! So grateful with this company for the opportunity to rent my boat through this app.

This app and platform are trash
Constant issues with the app freezing anytime I navigate away from the app, even for 5 seconds. Also depending on what I click on within the app I’m asked to sign in. Multiple times. The app is not user friendly. Sometimes I can edit booking inquiries sometimes I can’t. No consistency. Renters have similar complaints on their end. Thinking of moving my boat to a diff platform due to these issues.

Newbie
New to this PTP boating world. So far Boatsetter has made it pretty easy. There are some things they can improve on and make it easier for boat owners to navigate. I averaged 4 boat rentals last year and I’m at 4 boat rentals this year. It’s now June 2025.
Money scheme
How do this app make more than I do renting MY boat out. This is the biggest joke I’ve came across.
Booking made easy!
Really love the ease it is to communicate with guest and also the Boatsetter team. always there to help when needed with their quick response time for me. Especially Riley... really like working with Riley!
App malfunction
Always having issues with the app. Constantly freezing, nothing works.
