Update

🚀 Release Note: Major PDF & Document Automation Improvements

We are excited to announce a significant upgrade to our document generation engine. This update focuses on professionalizing our exports and ensuring your trip documentation is always accurate, beautifully styled, and technically robust.

The deployment is scheduled for release tonight. We foresee no major outages or problems during this release. If something doesn't work, please refresh the screen and continue where you left off.

💎 Precision PDF Rendering
We have transitioned to a high-fidelity rendering engine powered by Chromium. This ensures that every export—from booking confirmations to trip briefings—maintains its professional layout, consistent fonts, and sharp styling. What you see in the app is exactly what you get on paper.

⚓ Dynamic Trip Briefings & Real-time Crew Lists
Your documentation now evolves with your trip.

Automated Updates: Trip Briefings and Crew Lists are now automatically regenerated whenever a change occurs in your crew composition.

Zero Manual Effort: Whether you add a deckhand or update a guest list, the system handles the paperwork in the background, ensuring you always download the most up-to-date version.

🌍 Universal Character Support & Encoding
We have resolved previous issues with special characters and accents (UTF-8). Location names like "Quai de l'Épi" and nautical symbols are now displayed perfectly in all supported languages, including French, Spanish, and Dutch.

⚡ Performance & Reliability
Background Processing: Heavy document generation is now offloaded to specialized background workers. This keeps the user interface lightning-fast while the "heavy lifting" happens behind the scenes.

Transparent Financials: Exported invoices now feature a crystal-clear breakdown of Charter Fees, Service Fees, and APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance), providing full transparency for your clients.

📈 What this means for you
This update eliminates the need for manual document checks. Your administrative flow is now more reliable, your exports look more professional, and your data stays consistent from the first request to the final departure.

Update: Smoother Bookings and Improved Security

We are excited to share that we’ve updated our platform to make your experience more reliable. Here is what we improved for you:



  • Password Recovery: We fixed the reset password process. If you ever forget your password, you can now reliably request a new one and get back into your account without issues.



  • Booking Reliability: We’ve improved how our system handles reservations. This ensures that your bookings and vessel details are always processed correctly and stay perfectly synced.



  • Data Security: We updated our background systems to handle user data more securely. When changes are made to an account, all related information is now cleaned up and protected more efficiently.



  • System Performance: Several background updates were made to ensure the platform remains fast and responsive, even during busy booking periods.




⚠️ Maintenance Notice


These updates will be set live tonight at 8 PM. While we don't expect any major interruptions, you might experience a brief glitch during the deployment. If something doesn't look right, a simple page refresh in your browser should fix it immediately.


Thank you for your patience as we continue to improve our services!

Built for Schippers, by a Schipper. Stop the WhatsApp chaos! ⚓️

Let’s be honest: If you’re an independent charter or someone who just bought a boat and needs it transported, you’re likely drowning in a sea of WhatsApp messages, emails, and lost PDFs.

I’ve been there. I got tired of the endless back-and-forth and the "Where is that document again?" struggle. Existing tools were either too expensive, too corporate, or just didn't get what we actually do on the water.

So, I built charter.robinvancleemput.com specifically for the independents.

No big agencies, no corporate overhead—just the tools you actually need:

🚤 For New Owners: Need your vessel transported? Stop guessing costs. Get a direct estimate based on your transport request and connect with the right people immediately.

📋 Smart Prep: No more generic lists. Get vessel-specific checklists so you’re ready for departure without the mental load.

📖 Real Logbooks: A digital logbook focused on the essential checks. Simple, fast, and professional.

💬 Ditch WhatsApp: Move your professional communication out of your personal chats. Keep your reservation details and owner updates in one dedicated spot.

⚓️ Find Work, Effortlessly: For independent skippers, it stops the "endless hunt" for the next job. Let the work find you.

I built this platform to give us back our time and professionalize the way we work as independents.
