Yacht Maintenance Software Built for Working Vessels
FirstMate is yacht maintenance software for owners, engineers, and crew. It creates maintenance tasks from your vessel's own documentation, builds service history automatically, and keeps all records in one connected system.
Know your vessel. Stay ahead of maintenance.
What it does
From manuals to maintenance — in one system.
Task creation from documentation
Turn answers and insights from your vessel's manuals directly into tracked maintenance tasks. Work is grounded in the right specifications from the start.
Service history tracking
Every completed task builds your vessel's service record — searchable by system, date, or component. Nothing is lost between seasons or ownership changes.
Equipment register
Maintain a clear record of onboard systems and equipment, linked to the documentation that covers them. Know what you have, where it is, and what its service history looks like.
Planning timeline
Schedule maintenance against real operating windows rather than calendar reminders disconnected from how you actually run the vessel.

What makes it different
Not a reminder app. Not a generic checklist.
Reminders without context cause rework
A notification that says "service engine" doesn't tell you which oil, what torque, or what the manual says. FirstMate connects the task to the documentation before the work starts.
Spreadsheets don't link to specifications
Tracking maintenance in a spreadsheet means the record is only as good as what someone remembered to write down, with no connection to what the manufacturer actually requires.
Built around vessel systems, not generic equipment
FirstMate is designed for the way vessel maintenance works — by system, by component, and by service history — rather than adapted from property management or fleet software.
Common questions
Frequently asked questions
Yacht maintenance software helps owners and crew organise, schedule, and track maintenance tasks. The best systems connect those tasks to the vessel's actual documentation, so every action is informed by the right manufacturer requirements rather than general guidance.
A spreadsheet tracks what you write down. FirstMate connects maintenance tasks directly to your vessel's uploaded manuals and technical documents, so tasks are informed by the right specifications rather than guesswork or memory.
Yes. FirstMate is designed for any type of vessel — sailing yachts, motor yachts, catamarans, and working boats. The system adapts to the documentation you upload, regardless of vessel type or manufacturer.
Yes. Every completed task creates a permanent record in your vessel's service history. You can review the full maintenance timeline at any point, including after crew or ownership changes.
No. FirstMate is designed for owners, engineers, captains, and crew. The documentation workspace and chat features are straightforward to use without any technical training.
