Boat Facts

Boat Facts is the all-in-one vessel lifecycle platform for boat owners, brokers, dealers and marine surveyors — the place where a boat's story lives, from the first fuel receipt to the handover to its next owner. === AI COPILOT === Say "added 300 L diesel, 1,100 AED" and the record is created — fuel, maintenance, parts or an expense. The AI picks the right vessel, category, currency and date, shows a preview before saving, asks for anything missing, and learns your habits over time. Works in English and 中文. === VESSEL REGISTRY === Register every boat with full specifications — HIN, engine serials, propeller setup, fuel and water capacity, hull material. Each vessel gets a permanent, chronological history that stays with the boat. === SMART MAINTENANCE === Track services, repairs, parts and fuel. Build maintenance plans by engine hours or calendar interval and get reminders before they are due — in app, by email, or in your phone calendar through an iCal feed. Only items that need action appear, and you can pause or hide a block of reminders when you are busy. === SCAN & STORE === Photograph a spec sheet, a receipt or a document and the fields are filled in for you. Keep registration, insurance, purchase agreements and survey reports in a private document vault, each linked to the right vessel. === COSTS & TCO === Every fuel stop, invoice, repair and part rolls into one dashboard: total cost of ownership, monthly trends, per-vessel breakdowns and multi-currency support (AED, USD, EUR, CNY and more). Export any record as CSV or PDF for accounting. === INSPECTIONS & SEA TRIALS === Self-inspect with guided checklists and photo evidence with EXIF verification. Record professional sea-trial data — RPM, GPS speed, fuel flow, noise and propeller slip — and generate signed reports with SHA-256 signatures and QR verification. === PROFESSIONAL SURVEYS === Post a survey request from any vessel: pre-purchase, annual or damage and insurance survey, with your marina, preferred date and notes. Verified marine surveyors respond with quotes, and you track the job, the report and the handover in one place. === OWNERSHIP === Transfer a vessel to its next owner with a shareable transfer link — the buyer can accept it without an account. The full history moves with the boat; as the previous owner you keep a read-only archive with export, and you can take the vessel back within 30 days if the handover does not complete. === VERIFY & DISCOVER === Look up any vessel's history by HIN, verify signed reports by QR code, browse public listings from owners and brokers, and see GCC market intelligence with prices and source attribution. === BUILT FOR EVERY ROLE === Boat Owner, Broker, Dealer and Marine Surveyor accounts, each with its own dashboard. Free tiers include: owners manage 1 boat; brokers and dealers manage unlimited private inventory with 5 public listings included. === PRIVACY & SECURITY === No ads, no data selling. Sign in with Apple or Google, or use Face ID on supported devices. Passwords are bcrypt-hashed, reports are SHA-256 signed, sessions are JWT-based. Photos are permission-bound and never reused across accounts. You can delete your account in app at any time. === DISCLAIMER === AI analysis is an informational tool and does not replace a professional marine survey. Always consult a qualified marine surveyor for critical decisions.
