What it has to handle (checklist)
- Seats per departure, with adult, child and infant prices.
- Shared cruises and private charters on the same boat, without clashing.
- A hotel and agent channel with their commission and balance up to date.
- Sales on OTAs (Viator, GetYourGuide) without selling the same seat twice.
- Boarding list on a phone and QR check-in, even with no signal on the dock.
- Notifying and rebooking every passenger on a departure cancelled for sea or wind.
The capacity you configure can never exceed the number of passengers your vessel's certificate allows. Set it as the hard cap on each departure, not as a commercial number.

How to set it up, step by step
- 01Add each catamaran with its capacity and departure times (morning, afternoon, sunset).
- 02Create the products: shared cruise per seat and private charter per boat, with their prices.
- 03Give hotels and agents access to the partner portal, each with their commission.
- 04Connect the booking engine to your website; the WhatsApp agent answers with the seats left.
- 05On the day, the crew scans each passenger's QR code at boarding.

Why a generic tour engine falls short
A tour engine sells seats and stops at payment. What happens next — who boarded, which agent owes you how much, who needs a message because the 5pm departure is off — still lives in a spreadsheet. On a catamaran operation, with dozens of passengers per departure and several channels selling at once, that part eats the most hours.
