The problem

Boats break when
maintenance slips.

Most boat owners are diligent — but tracking a dozen systems, each with different intervals buried across different manuals, is a full-time job. Something always falls through the cracks.

How it works

From cold start to a
full maintenance plan
in minutes.

Alerts That Matter

Overdue jobs surface immediately. Each alert shows the system, how overdue it is, and a one-tap action to start or snooze.

Hours & Cycles Tracking

Log engine hours, generator cycles, and pump run-counts. Bosun calculates exactly when each service interval is due.

Sparklines & Trends

Each system card shows a mini trend of recent service history so you can spot a system getting more attention than usual.

Parts Lists & Cost Estimates

Every task comes with a parts list and cost estimate from your manual — budget and order before you're in the yard.

Reviews

Trusted by
serious sailors.

"I uploaded my Yanmar manual and within two minutes Bosun had pulled out 23 maintenance tasks I didn't even know existed. It's embarrassing how much I was missing."

"Finally an app that understands boats. Not generic tasks — actual intervals from my actual manuals. The parts cost estimates alone saved me hours before our refit."

"We avoided a mid-passage engine failure because Bosun alerted us to an overdue impeller. It's not hyperbole to say this app saved our crossing."
