Purpose-Built for UK Boat Yards & Marine Workshops
Most workshop software is designed for car garages or general trades. Yard Manager is the only cloud-based platform designed specifically for the UK marine service industry.
Visual zone scheduling
Drag-and-drop Gantt-style scheduling across hard standing, workshop bays, lift bays, and pontoon storage. See your entire yard capacity at a glance — no more double-booked zones or forgotten haul-outs.
Work orders with customer approval
Build estimates with labour, parts, and subcontractor costs, then send a one-click approval link to the boat owner. They sign off online — no email back-and-forth, no scope arguments later. Stale and expired approvals are flagged for you.
Live engineer timers + Smart-Bing nudges
Engineers start and stop work straight from the job page. Smart-Bing prompts them to log labour at the right moments so nothing falls through. Hours and costs roll up onto the invoice automatically.
Parts catalogue & service templates
Reusable parts and service items with cost, sell price and VAT. Add them to a work order in one tap; stock levels and margins are tracked for you.
Photo evidence on every job
Engineers attach before/after photos to each work order from any phone. Customers see the work; you have an audit trail for disputes and insurance.
One-click invoicing & online payment
Generate an invoice from a completed job in seconds. Customers pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay via a secure link or QR — funds settle to your account automatically.
Boat & customer database
Every boat that enters your yard gets a permanent record — dimensions, engine type, service history, owner details. When a customer calls about their boat, you have the answer in seconds.
Reports built for boatyards
Work orders, approvals, parts usage, invoicing and recovery — every report exports to CSV and PDF with your filters and totals attached. No spreadsheet wrangling at month-end.
UK data & compliance
GDPR-compliant data handling, VAT-ready invoicing, and all data stored in UK/EU cloud data centres. Built by a UK company for UK marine businesses.
Everything at a glance
No more hunting through spreadsheets or checking multiple systems. Your entire operation, visible in seconds.

Quoting and job tracking is just the start. The DMS tier turns Yard Manager into a full Dealer Management System — store-linked parts, branded service records, automated reminders and a customer-facing job tracker.
Shopify / WooCommerce store link
Connect your existing online store. Engineers tap 'View in store' on any part and jump straight to the matching SKU — or a clean search fallback if the SKU isn't on file.
Branded boat service-history PDFs
Generate a brokerage-grade service record for any boat in one click. Your branding, every job, parts and certificate — perfect for handovers, surveys and resale.
Automated service reminders
Set recurring services (annual, hours-based, seasonal) once and the system emails owners before they're due. Suppression windows stop reminder spam.
Customer job tracker
Owners follow their job from their phone — status, photos, approvals and invoice — through a secure share link. No app, no login, no calls asking "is it ready?"
Margin reporting
See real margin on every job: parts cost vs sell, labour hours vs charge-out, subcontractor pass-through. Cut quietly unprofitable work without guesswork.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about site management software and how PayCamp can help your operation.
The UK's Dedicated Boat Yard Management Platform
Running a boat yard in the UK means juggling haul-outs, workshop schedules, customer communications, and invoicing — often with nothing more than a whiteboard and a stack of paper job cards. Yard Manager by PayCamp replaces that chaos with a single cloud-based platform designed specifically for the marine service industry.
Unlike generic workshop management software built for car garages or general trades, Yard Manager understands the unique workflows of UK boatyards: zone-based scheduling (hard standing, lift bays, workshops, pontoon storage), boat-specific service histories, and the seasonal rhythms of the marine industry. It works for a solo marine engineer running jobs from a van and for a full-service boatyard with multiple zones and a team of technicians.
Every feature has been designed around the way UK boat yards actually work: drag-and-drop job scheduling that shows your entire yard at a glance, job cards that automatically calculate labour, materials, and subcontractor costs, and one-click invoicing that eliminates the end-of-month scramble. When a job is complete, send a pay-now link or QR code and collect payment online via PayCamp Payments or your own Stripe account — no chasing, no per-job fees. Your customers and their boats stay linked in a permanent database — so when someone calls about their vessel, you have the full history in seconds.
Yard Manager is built and supported by a UK company, with all data stored in UK/EU cloud data centres, GDPR-compliant data handling, and VAT-ready invoicing. Plans start from £29/month with no per-job fees, no subscription commissions, and every plan includes a 14-day free trial with no credit card required.
