KEEL answers the one question every boat owner asks before leaving the dock: is she good to go, or is something due. Log your engine hours after an outing and KEEL does the interval math for you, then tells you what is coming before it becomes a problem. WHAT YOU GET - Know what is due at a glance. The home screen shows the three nearest items, overdue first, in plain language. - Real interval math. A task can be due by engine hours, by calendar date, or by whichever arrives first, which is how marine maintenance actually works. - Log hours in seconds. Type the reading, run a timer, or photograph the hour meter and let AI read it for you. - Service history that lasts. Every oil change, impeller, anode and yard visit, with cost, vendor, parts and photos. - Reminders that respect the season. Hour based reminders pause while she is hauled out, so you are never nagged about an oil change in January. - Ask about your boat. The built in AI assistant reads your engine, your open tasks and your service history before it answers. - Costs that add up. Fuel, storage, insurance, mooring, haul outs and repairs, with lifetime and season totals. - The punch list. Every small gremlin you keep meaning to fix, with photos and severity. - Haul outs done properly. Yard, lift fee, bottom paint, anodes, prop work and splash date. - Documents that expire. Registration, insurance and safety gear, with reminders before they lapse. - Multiple engines and assets. Twin outboards, a generator, a trailer and a tender each get their own hour meter and their own tasks. - Built for iPhone and iPad. A proper two pane layout on iPad, never a stretched phone screen. DESIGNED FOR HOW BOATS ACTUALLY WORK - Salt, brackish and fresh water each need a different anode metal, and KEEL knows the difference. - The raw water impeller is annual regardless of hours, because it is rubber and it ages on the shelf. - Safety items such as flares and extinguishers remind you from the printed date you enter. KEEL never invents an expiry date. - Trailer tires are tracked by age, not tread, because that is what actually fails. PRIVACY AND QUALITY - No ads. Ever. - No account and no sign up. We never ask for your name, email or phone number. - Your records stay on your device. There is no KEEL server holding your boat data. - No tracking, no analytics and no advertising identifiers. - Works offline. Marinas have poor signal, so logging, reminders and history all work without a connection. - Export anything, at any time. Full JSON and CSV export, plus a backup folder that you choose. WHO IT IS FOR Owner operators who already keep records in a spreadsheet or a notebook, and want something that does the math, remembers the dates, and is there at the fuel dock with wet hands.
