Yacht Maintenance Made Easy - Designed for marine engineers, captains and owner or operators. Improves reliability, saves time, and creates transparency. Implementing a structured planned maintenance schedule such as Plan M8 not only ensures your equipment and machinery on board is maintained through continuous monitoring at all times, It assures all your yacht maintenance is planned. Plan M8 provides a comprehensive and structured task-based scheduling of all required, recommended and manufacturer specific planned maintenance tasks of a vessel's components. Plan your maintenance ahead of time, pre-order spares and never miss a component with our pre-generated templates for your vessel. You will see a reduction in downtime and the need for emergency repairs as equipment is maintained before it fails. Operating costs are reduced as optimum service life is given to components. As you continue to use Plan M8, a detailed maintenance log of your vessel is being build. Proper records will be kept that can be easily passed onto new crew, contractors, surveyors, and prospective buyers. Get more transparency about your yacht maintenance status with all involved through our easy-to-use application; your "Plan Mate".
