WaterTightVM

Every vessel, every certificate, every rest hour, in one view.

WaterTightVM gives office and shore teams a live overview of every vessel: crew and vessel certificates, rest hours, PMS, LOLER and ISM safety. The data is accessible and actionable anywhere, processes are faster, and the admin hours go back into running ships.

Why fleets switch

Most fleets aren't short of software. They're short of one system everyone actually uses.

WaterTightVM works for any fleet size — and for classed vessels — when shore needs a live overview, not another spreadsheet.

How it feels today

  • Chasing vessels by email and WhatsApp for what's outstanding
  • Certificate trackers out of date the moment they're sent
  • No live view of PMS backlog without phoning the ship
  • Audit prep that means hunting binders and phone photos
  • Rest-hour breaches found at inspection, not before

What you can run instead

  • DPA opens the safety inbox and sees open cases
  • Superintendent sees PMS backlog without a phone round
  • Master prints crew, muster, and hours of rest from live vessel data
  • Crew keep working in low connectivity; records sync when back in range
  • Turn modules on as you retire spreadsheets. Not a big-bang rip-out.

WaterTightVM: one system for the office and the vessel, so compliance is assured and nothing is chased by email.

Works where the vessel works

Best online, but when the signal drops the crew app keeps working: PMS, rest hours, safety rounds and certificates save on the device and sync automatically when back in range.

Buying with confidence

Questions fleets ask before they commit

Do we have to replace every system on day one?

No. Most fleets start with the loudest pain — safety inbox, certificates, PMS, or hours of rest — then retire spreadsheets module by module on the same vessel record.

What happens when the vessel loses signal?

Best online, keeps working offline in low connectivity, and syncs automatically when you’re back in range. Shore sees updates as soon as the vessel is back in range.

Does it work for our fleet size and classed vessels?

Yes. WaterTightVM works for any fleet size, from a single vessel to a large fleet, and for classed and unclassed vessels alike. Switch on the modules you need.

What if you don't cover something we need?

Any questions, just get in touch. If you’re not sure we cover something you need, outline the issue and we’ll find a way to solve it.

Will the crew actually use it?

Rank-based permissions match how the ship already works. The crew app is built for jobs, hours of rest, safety, and certificates — not a desktop portal squeezed onto a phone.
