How berthr works
Everything a captain needs.
Nothing they don't.
From the first invite to the final log entry — the operational side of sailing, handled.
Invites and RSVPs, handled
Add guests, set a trip date, and berthr sends SMS invitations automatically. Guests reply YES or NO by text — no app, no account required. You see who's in on the dashboard in real time.
Add a provisions list to any trip — assign who's bringing beer, sandwiches, or snacks so nothing gets doubled up and nothing gets forgotten.
Guests reply YES by text. That's it.
berthr sends the invite the moment you confirm a trip. Guests reply YES or NO — no link to click, no account to create, no app to install. RSVPs and reminder messages are handled automatically.
Your boat, with a brain
An AI assistant trained on your boat answers guest questions 24/7 — marina directions, what to bring, seasickness tips, overnight packing. Configure it once, it handles the rest.
Here's what to pack for an overnight on Solstice:
- 🧥 Warm layers — cold after dark
- 👟 Non-slip, soft-soled shoes
- 💊 Seasickness meds (take before boarding)
- 🛏 Light sleeping bag or warm blanket
- 🔦 Small headlamp
The boat has bedding for 4. Any other questions?
Trip photos, shared automatically
Every confirmed guest gets a link to the trip gallery in their welcome SMS. They upload from their phone, you keep the best ones. Organized by trip, no shared albums to manage.
Everything in one place
Your captain's dashboard gives you a live view of upcoming trips, confirmed guests, and pending RSVPs — all at a glance. Manage trip details, guest profiles, and crew from one screen. Works at the dock or at anchor — add it to your home screen like a native app.
The logbook you'll actually keep
A proper captain's log — voyages with multi-leg support, engine hours tracked as a running meter, and boat events like maintenance, fuel, haul-outs, and winterization. Weather auto-filled from historical data.
Your crew's hours, counted for them
Every sail you log builds your crew's own sailing record — days aboard, hours underway, nautical miles, night hours. They see it in their crew portal and can export it as a PDF for a sailing school or a charter company. You do nothing extra: it's built from the sails you're already logging. You get the same board from your side, ranked by hours, and berthr tells you when someone's crossed a milestone worth a word at the dock.
Short on crew? First to reply gets the spot.
Say how many hands you need and berthr texts your crew at once — the first replies claim the slots, everyone after gets a polite "spots are filled". Open sails work the other way: confirm a date for a race or an evening out and let whoever's free self-select. If someone drops, the spot is offered round again automatically.
