Mobile marine technicians
Single-van operators who lose hours to unqualified phone calls and site visits that were never the right job.
Partnership
A small, honest pilot — not a platform launch
BoatFixIt is a concept looking for a handful of partners willing to test whether structured enquiries genuinely reduce downtime for boat owners and wasted trips for service businesses.
Who this suits
Boatyards and service centres
Yards with haul-out capacity that want enquiries pre-filtered by vessel length, engine type and category.
Marinas and harbour authorities
Operators who field service questions from berth holders and want somewhere structured to point them.
Associations and insurers
Bodies that already refer members to trades and want the referral captured as a written brief.
Proposed terms
Everything below is a starting point for discussion, not a contract
- Commercial model
- Proposed at C$49 per accepted qualified enquiry. No subscription, no listing fee and no percentage of job value. Pilot pricing, qualification criteria and volume caps are to be agreed in writing with each partner before any pilot begins.
- Qualification
- A qualified enquiry means a brief with a genuine vessel, a contactable owner, a service category the provider has declared, and a location within the provider's declared coverage. Anything failing those tests is not chargeable.
- Pilot scope
- A pilot would run in one region with a small number of providers per category, for a fixed period, with agreed reporting on enquiries generated, accepted and converted.
- Data handling
- The concept collects only what a provider needs to quote: general location, vessel type and length, engine type, service category, mobile preference, timeframe and a description. No precise tracking, no payment details, no accounts.
- Exit
- Either side can end a pilot with reasonable written notice. Providers keep any customer relationships formed during the pilot; there is no lock-in or exclusivity.
Concept disclosure
BoatFixIt is a concept published by Exergist Innovations. It is not a trading business, holds no provider agreements, and has no operational capability. The site exists to test demand, wording and matching logic with real boat owners and real service businesses before anything is built for production.
Explicit scope limits
No live dispatch. No payments or payment processing. No user accounts. No paid map or tracking services. No emergency or rescue response. No representation that any enquiry is a confirmed booking.
