The problem

Most watch schedules are one crew change away from breaking.

Leave, charter periods, training, sickness, and last-minute changes quickly throw the rotation out of balance. Officers are left manually adjusting schedules, checking fairness, and fixing conflicts.

It's slow, repetitive, and difficult to get right consistently.

01

Hours wasted managing watch schedules

Time that should be spent running the vessel is spent rebuilding schedules.

02

Crew changes create chaos

One leave request can affect the entire rotation.

03

Bad watches keep repeating

The same crew can end up carrying an unfair share of weekends and undesirable duties.

04

Charters break the system

The rotation loses its place and fairness disappears.

05

Every change means more admin

Schedules have to be checked, adjusted and redistributed manually.

06

Nobody trusts the process

Without clear records, crew can question whether duties are being shared fairly.
