You run a business on the water. The admin shouldn't keep you on land.
Between collecting passenger names, managing bookings, checking the weather, and coordinating crew – there's a stack of work before you even untie the lines.
Then you're out on the water. A guest messages about tomorrow. Another wants to reschedule because of the forecast. Someone booked but you never got their details.
Understory gives you one system to manage it all, so when you're at sea, the only thing on your mind is the trip.

Know exactly who's on board before you leave the dock
Guests fill in their names, contact details, and emergency info when they book. Everything's in one place before you leave the dock.
Reach tourists where they're already looking
Connect to travel platforms and booking sites so guests find you when they're searching for things to do. Bookings come straight into Understory. Whether someone books through a travel site or your own page, everything ends up in one place.
Manage your business from the boat
Check bookings, message a guest, update tomorrow's schedule, confirm a group size – all from your phone.
Rough seas. Strong winds. Your system handles it
Weather calls the shots on the water – let guests reschedule or cancel on their own. Need to move a booking to another date yourself? Done in a few clicks. Less back-and-forth, and no one's stuck with a booking they can't use.

Booking add-ons
Earn more before anyone steps on board
Let guests add snacks, drinks, a fishing rod hire, or a photo package when they book. One checkout, one payment, more revenue per passenger. Without collecting cash on the boat, or separate orders to track.
Resource management
Life vests, rods, gear – all tracked automatically
Understory tracks what you have and what's already reserved. When a guest books, the right equipment gets set aside. You set the numbers, the system does the rest.
Private experiences
Exclusive trips for groups and companies
Sunset cruises for a birthday. A private fishing trip for a stag do. Create hidden booking links for private charters that aren't visible on your public page. One booking, one payment, the whole boat.
Ticket types
Adults, children, families – one booking page
Set up ticket types that match how guests book. Provide different prices and different options, all managed from one place. Guests pick what fits at checkout.
