Sound familiar?

Still running your club the hard way?

Most clubs manage bookings through WhatsApp groups, shared spreadsheets, or a frantic phone call to the secretary. SeatFill replaces all of it — and adds capabilities most clubs never knew they were missing.

Booking requests flooding in via WhatsApp and text

Members book their seat in 30 seconds, any time of day or night

Two members answering the same WhatsApp message at once

Real-time conflict prevention — physically impossible to double-book a seat

Gig goes out short because someone cancelled last minute

Automatic waitlist fills the seat instantly when anyone drops out

No record of who rowed which boat and when

Complete audit trail — every booking, cancellation, and session charge

Nowhere to formally log a safety incident or near-miss

Structured reporting with auto-generated formatted PDF reports

Popular sessions fully booked before most members know

Automatic waitlist — every cancellation reaches the right member first

No record of who inspected the boat or flagged a fault

Every inspection logged, issues auto-closed with inspector name, full audit trail — safety records always ready

Everything you need

Built for boat clubs. Not adapted for them.

Every feature was designed around how boat clubs actually operate — not bolted on from generic booking software. If your club does it, SeatFill handles it.

Core

Smart Slot Booking

Members book morning or afternoon slots in seconds from any device. Real-time conflict prevention means double-bookings are simply impossible — no more mediating overlapping requests.

Smart

Automatic Waitlist

When a slot fills up, members join the waitlist. The moment someone cancels, the next person is automatically notified and given a 30-minute window to claim it — no admin required.

New

Live Weather & Tides

Every booking date shows real-time wind speed, conditions, and tide times. Members make informed decisions before they commit — and fewer bookings get cancelled on the day.

Core

Boat & Gig Management

Add boats and gigs with photos, set qualification requirements so only authorised members can book certain vessels, and block dates for maintenance or club events in seconds.

Core

Session Billing

Log session costs and charges per trip as you go. At month-end, filter all unbilled sessions and email itemised statements to every member with a single click. No spreadsheets, no chasing.

Insight

Usage Analytics

See which boats and gigs are most popular, busiest days of the week, session trends, and your most active members — so you can plan maintenance windows and grow the club strategically.

Safety

Incident Reporting

Structured near-miss and incident forms capture every detail in the moment. Generate a formatted PDF report and email it to the club manager in one click — no more scribbled notes.

New

Post-Session Feedback

Members rate their session after every row. Collect CSAT scores, maintenance flags, and testimonials automatically — a constant pulse on how your boats are performing.

Core

Member Management

Invite members, assign roles and permissions, review full booking histories, and use masquerade mode to view the app exactly as any member sees it — invaluable for support.

Core

Automated Emails

Booking confirmations, 24-hour reminders, waitlist alerts, fuel statements, and branded welcome packs — every routine email sent automatically so nothing slips through the cracks.

New

SMS Alerts

Engineers and admins get an instant text the moment a medium or urgent safety issue is reported. Members can also opt in to SMS waitlist notifications so they never miss a freed seat.

Safety

BoatCheck — Vessel Inspections

Engineers run configurable pre-sail checklists on a tablet — pass, advisory, fail, or N/A. Member-reported issues appear directly in the inspection form, and marking one as passed auto-closes the issue with the inspector's name recorded. Photos attached, reports approved, branded PDFs exported.

PWA

Works Like a Native App

Fully responsive and installable on any phone — members tap 'Add to Home Screen' and get a full app experience. No app store approval, no IT department, no friction.

Simple by design

Up and running in a day

No IT department. No long contracts. No complicated setup. We do the heavy lifting so your club can focus on sailing.

1

Tell us about your club

Share your boats, gigs, and member list. We configure everything — domain, branding, vessels, booking rules — and hand you the keys. You're live in under 30 minutes.

2

Invite your members

Send invite links from the admin panel. Members get a welcome email with a branded PDF guide, set a password, and start booking — no app store, no IT department.

3

Run your club with confidence

Every booking, session charge, safety report, and member message in one place. Spend less time on admin. Spend more time on the water.

What your members see

Booking a boat should feel as good as being on one

Live weather & tide forecast

Members see real wind speed, conditions, and tide times for their chosen date before confirming — fewer last-minute cancellations, better-planned outings.

One-tap booking

Pick a date, choose morning or afternoon, confirm. Done in under 10 seconds from the home screen — on any phone.

Smart waitlisting

Full? Join the waitlist in one tap. A slot opens? The member gets an automatic alert with a 30-minute claim window. No admin, no awkward calls.

Installs like a native app

Tap 'Add to Home Screen' on any phone — iOS or Android. It works offline too, so members can check their bookings at the pontoon without a signal.

"Before SeatFill, booking a boat meant texting the secretary and hoping for the best. Now members do it themselves in 30 seconds."

Got questions?

Frequently asked

How quickly can we get set up?

Most clubs are live within 24 hours. You send us your boats, gigs, and member list — we configure your domain, branding, vessels, and booking rules, then hand you the keys. You don't touch a config file.

Do members need to download an app?

No app store needed. Members open the link in their phone browser and tap 'Add to Home Screen' — it installs and works exactly like a native app, with no review process or download to manage.

Can we use our own domain?

Yes — every club gets a custom domain (e.g. row.yourclub.co.uk) with automatic SSL and DNS setup. Members see your club's login page, your logo, your colours. SeatFill never appears.

What happens when a booking is cancelled?

The next member on the waitlist is automatically notified and given 30 minutes to claim the slot. If they don't respond, the offer moves to the next person in the queue — all without any admin involvement.

Can we track session costs per member?

Yes. Admins log costs per session as they go. You can filter all unbilled sessions by member and send itemised email statements with a single click — no spreadsheet required.

Is our data shared with other clubs?

Never. Each club's data is completely isolated in its own environment — members, bookings, fuel records, and settings are entirely private to your club.

What does it cost?

The Standard plan (up to 3 vessels, 15 members) is £89/month with every core feature included. Larger clubs use our interactive price calculator — the Pro plan starts at £129/month for 5 vessels and 20 members, and scales up with natural volume discounts as you grow. A typical club with 10 boats and 65 members is around £240/month.
