MIDDLE WATCH
0000 Watch taken over

Someone hasto stand themiddle watch.

So we did. Then we started a software company about it.

 

Scroll to stand the watch. It takes four minutes, not four hours.
It's watching your cursor. It has nothing else on.
0100 Who we are

We make software for yachts. That's the pitch.

Middle Watch is a small company. Very small. You may be looking at all of it.

It was started by a working captain. He got tired of typing into spreadsheets at two in the morning.

So now he types code at two in the morning. Progress.

We build the tools we kept wishing existed. For yachts, and for the crew who run them.

“Fifteen years, three oceans, 32,000 miles, and an unreasonable amount of that spent typing service hours into a spreadsheet at two in the morning. I built the thing I kept wishing existed.”

0200 How we do things

A few rules. Written down, so we keep them.

  1. We've done the job.If we haven't stood the watch, we don't build for it.
  2. Prices go on the page.When there are prices. Give us a minute.
  3. No discovery calls.You can read. We can type. Email works fine.
  4. Nobody here is called Business Development.There's barely anybody here at all.
  5. We never say “solutions”.Except just then. Sorry.
0300 What we're making

Two things. Both nearly ready. We know how that sounds.

certa

Your yacht has jet skis. That makes it an RYA training centre. Certa does the paperwork that comes with that. Without the paper.

Bookings, guest declarations, certificates, the inspection pack.

Coming soon

nauta life

An app for crew. Where you were, every day you've worked. One record, and it's yours.

Sea time, Schengen days, tax days, certificates. Not a shoebox.

Coming soon

more flags

One at a time. There are only so many nights.

Not soon
