Plan Maintenance for a Traveling Yacht - Workflow in Marinminds Connect

A 24-meter yacht is getting ready for a busy summer season. The itinerary looks something like this:

• May: Greece

• June: Italy (Amalfi coast)

• July–August: Balearics

For the technical yacht manager, this raises important questions:

⚡ What maintenance needs to be completed before departure?

🛠 Which checks can be done on the way, without disturbing the owner’s plans?

🌍 How do we coordinate with trusted service partners in each country?

Traditionally, this would mean juggling spreadsheets, WhatsApp groups, and last-minute calls to local engineers. With Marinminds Connect, the workflow becomes proactive and effortless.

Step-by-Step Workflow in Marinminds Connect

1. Centralized Overview The manager logs into Marinminds Connect and sees all managed yachts in one dashboard.

2. By selecting a yacht, they access a Dashboard with an overview of the yachts metrics, latest trip and timeline of events — from system updates and maintenance logs to alerts and completed tasks. This gives an instant snapshot of the yacht’s technical health and history.

3. Predictive Maintenance Insights Based on usage data, the platform highlights upcoming maintenance tasks, for example: oil change in 50 engine hours, generator service due, and a watermaker filter nearing replacement.

4. Instead of reacting, the manager plans ahead by creating a job:

   1. Alarms or predictive maintenance tasks are added to a job.

   2. A job is assigned to a supplier (local service partners or coworker).

   3. The manager assigns deadlines and aligns them with the travel plan

5. Collaboration With Service Partners Through the platform, local service partners in Greece, Italy, and Spain get secure access to relevant tasks and system data. No endless email threads — everyone shares the same source of truth.

6. Smart Alerts During the Season If something changes — e.g., a battery drops unexpectedly, or fuel filters clog sooner — the manager receives an alert and can instantly assign a partner in the yacht’s current location.

7. Owner Transparency The owner receives a clean summary: “All maintenance is on track, next scheduled checks in Italy.” Owners can approve or decline jobs. Instead of overload, they see confidence.

Why It Works

• Efficiency – No over-servicing, no surprises.

• Speed – Local partners looped in automatically.

• Trust – Owners see proactive care, not last-minute firefighting.

Marinminds Connect turns maintenance planning from a headache into a structured, seamless process — even when yachts roam across borders.

Because managing yachts shouldn’t mean chasing problems. It should mean anticipating them.
