Built for motorboat hire operators

Motorboat Hire Software, Full Throttle

From RIBs to day cruisers, HireHelm helps you manage licence checks, engine maintenance, fuel tracking, and bookings — without the paperwork.

Without HireHelm

Customers arrive without the right licence and you have to turn them away

Engine maintenance gets missed during busy weekends and craft break down

Fuel costs are unpredictable because you can't track usage per hire

Damage deposits are handled in cash and disputes drag on for weeks

You're juggling phone bookings, walk-ins, and online enquiries with no single view

Offer half-day, full-day, or hourly hires with automatic turnaround buffers for refuelling and safety checks.

Collect and verify customer boat licences or RYA certificates before they arrive. No guesswork at the pontoon.

Log engine hours, schedule servicing, and track hull inspections per craft. Never miss a maintenance window.

Collect and hold damage deposits via Stripe. Release or deduct automatically after the hire period.

Everything included

Every feature is included with your HireHelm plan. No add-ons, no hidden costs.

Request RYA certification or ICC documents at booking. Customers upload before arrival so you can verify in advance.

Log engine hours per craft per hire. Set maintenance alerts at configurable thresholds so servicing happens on schedule.

Record fuel levels at departure and return. Calculate fuel costs per hire for accurate pricing and expense tracking.

Hold deposits via Stripe pre-authorisation. Release automatically after a clean return or deduct for damages with photographic evidence.

Digital pre-departure checklists ensure every craft goes out with the correct safety gear — fire extinguisher, flares, VHF radio.

Handle overnight and multi-day hires with flexible pricing, mid-hire check-ins, and automated return reminders.
