Crew

Operations › On Board › Crew

  • Admin only

Crew is your list of crew members: captains, dive masters, instructors, cruise directors, cooks, engineers, deckhands and others. Each card holds the person’s role, default boat and pay. Only admins can open this screen.

The crew cards are used by Crew on Trips and by the crew cost of each trip in Costs & P&L.

Add a crew member

Section titled “Add a crew member”

  1. Click Add Crew Member (or Add First Crew Member on an empty list).

  2. Under Identity, enter the Name, choose the Role and the Employment type (In-house or Freelance), and pick the Default Boat.

  3. Switch on Permanent boat crew if this person sails on every trip of the default boat (typically captain, mechanic, compressor man, deckhand). Leave it off for rotating crew such as the cruise director, dive masters and instructors.

  4. Under Compensation, enter the Base Salary (fixed) and its Salary Period (Per Trip, Per Day or Per Month), and the Sea Day Rate if the person is also paid per day at sea.

  5. Optionally fill Contact & Notes (phone, email, notes).

  6. Click Create.

Commission % is stored for reference only: it is not used in any calculation.

Find and filter crew

Section titled “Find and filter crew”

The list shows each person’s role, employment type, whether they are Permanent, their default boat, salary and sea day rate. Filter by Role, Employment type, Permanent crew (Permanent only / Rotating only) and Active. Only active crew are shown by default.

Stop using a crew member

Section titled “Stop using a crew member”
  • Switch off Active to keep the person’s history but remove them from the crew lists: an inactive person is no longer offered as rotating crew and, if permanent, is no longer attached to the trips of their boat.
  • Delete moves the card to the bin. Use the trashed filter to see deleted cards, then Restore or Force delete them.
