Comparison
Your Boathouse vs WhatsApp & group chats
Group chats are great for banter — but they can’t prevent double-bookings, tell you who’s on the water, or raise the alarm when a crew is overdue.
One source of truth
A live who’s-out view instead of scrolling back through hundreds of messages.
Real bookings
Boats are actually reserved and clashes prevented — not “first to message” chaos.
Safety that acts
Overdue alerts and a water-status flag work automatically; a chat just sits there.

Frequently asked questions
Can we still use our group chat?
Of course — keep it for chat and social, and use Your Boathouse for boats, bookings and safety.
Is it harder for members than a chat?
No — checking a boat out takes a couple of taps, and there’s nothing to scroll through.
