A recreational captain at the helm of a small motorboat at golden hour, calm water, hands on the wheel.

Built for recreational captains

Captain the boat, not the group text. One link handles the rest.

Skipperly turns the group-chat chaos of planning a trip into a single shareable invite — RSVPs, life jackets, weather, and safety checks, all in one calm place.

Free to start · No card required · Your guests don’t need an account

You shouldn’t need a spreadsheet to go boating.

The group chat that won’t quit

“Who’s coming?” “What time again?” “Is Sarah a +1?” Skipperly answers all of it before anyone has to ask.

The morning-of scramble

Sizes, waivers, weather, fuel. One screen, one glance, one decision: cast off.

The mental checklist that lives rent-free in your head

Skipperly remembers headcount, jacket sizes, signed waivers, and the forecast — so you don’t have to.

Everything a captain needs. Nothing they don’t.

One link replaces five apps.

Smart Invites

Send one link. Guests RSVP, sign waivers, share life-jacket sizes, and add the trip to their calendar — no app, no signup. You watch confirmed headcount tick up live.

Trip invite

The Departure Gate

Skipperly won’t let you cast off until your safety checklist is verified, waivers are signed, and every guest has a properly sized life jacket assigned. Peace of mind, baked in.

Departure Gate

Weather you can trust

Marine forecasts pulled the moment guests open the invite. Wind, waves, and conditions, automatically attached to every trip.

Marine forecast

Your Guest Book, remembered

Import contacts once. Skipperly remembers sizes, dietary notes, and emergency contacts — so the second invite is a two-tap job.

Guest Book

Life Jacket Manager

See which sizes you need before guests arrive. Track inventory across trips. Spot a gap before it’s a gap.

Jacket Manager

Snacks, sorted. Crew, fed.

Plan the galley two ways. Run a potluck — map out the menu and let guests sign up for what they’re bringing, ingredient by ingredient. Or order a meal kit — picnic, meat-and-cheese, or hydration — fulfilled by Amazon and delivered before you cast off.

Meal planning

Recurring trips & reminders

Friday sunset cruise every week? Set it once. Skipperly sends the invites and the reminders on autopilot.

Recurring trips

Crew, not chaos

Add first mates and co-captains with view-only or edit access to your boats and outings.

Crew access

Smart notifications

Email, SMS, and push — capped, quiet-hour-aware, and only when it actually matters.

Notifications

Three steps to a smoother boat day.

1

Add your boat

Name, capacity, life jackets on board. Two minutes.

2

Plan an outing

Date, location, who you want aboard. Skipperly drafts the invite for you.

3

Share the link

RSVPs, waivers, sizes, and weather flow in. Open the Trip Day screen. Cast off.

Why captains love us most

Green light to leave the dock. Or don’t.

Every Skipperly trip ends with one screen: the Departure Gate. A single status — Ready, Almost, or Not yet — that rolls up your safety checklist, signed waivers, and a life jacket assigned to every guest by size.

If something’s off, Skipperly tells you exactly what. Short two adult-Ls. Missing a waiver from Mike. Fuel not checked. One tap to fix. Then you cast off, knowing nothing important got missed.

Built on the dock, not in a boardroom.

Skipperly is built by recreational captains who got tired of running boat days out of a group chat. Every feature exists because we needed it on a real Saturday — not because a roadmap said so.

We test on our own boats. We listen to other captains. We ship what makes the day calmer, safer, and a lot more fun.

You’re invited

Saturday Sail

Capt. Jordan · 2:00 PM

5 / 8
Confirmed → confetti time

Your guests don’t need to download anything.

Tap the link. See the trip, the boat, the captain, the weather. RSVP in three taps, sign the waiver, share their size, and get confetti when they’re confirmed. The day before, a friendly reminder. The day of, departure updates.

No accounts. No app store. No “what’s the address again?”

A whole boat day, on one screen.

One link, every detail

Trip info, RSVPs, waivers, weather, jacket sizes — all in the same place your guests already are.

Safety, not as an afterthought

Every trip runs through the Departure Gate. Every guest gets a sized jacket. Every waiver signed before boarding.

Less herding. More heading out.

You spend the morning on the water, not in your group chat.

Pricing

Free, forever, for the way most of us actually boat.

One boat. Real outings. Real RSVPs. Waivers, weather, the Departure Gate — all included. No card, no trial timer, no “starter” asterisks.

Paid plans for multi-boat fleets, crew seats, and recurring trips are coming soon.
