The problem

Too many charter operators
are underwater and don't know it.

You think you had a good season. Then October arrives — a repair bill, a slow stretch, a platform fee you didn't account for — and suddenly the numbers don't add up.

01
Gross revenue is a lie
Platform fees, fuel, CC processing, slip allocation, permits — by the time you subtract everything, that $1,050 charter might net you $680. Or $820. You genuinely don't know without doing math you never have time to do.
02
You're pricing by feel
You set your rates by looking at what competitors charge. But you don't know your cost floor, you don't know the market in real time, and you don't know when to hold vs. discount a slot that's going unfilled.
03
The season ends and sinks you
You thought you were above water all summer. Then the mechanic bill arrives in October and you weren't. Nobody told you to set aside $150 per charter while you were running them. AboveWater does.
Everything missing from your booking platform

Everything your booking
platform forgot to build.

FareHarbor takes your bookings. Boatsetter manages your listings. Neither one tells you if you're actually making money.

True net per charter
See exactly what you made after platform fees, CC processing, fuel, captain pay, and your share of fixed costs. Not gross. Not "revenue." Net — what actually hit your pocket.
Core analytics
Year-end P&L
The IRS can reclassify your charter as a hobby — wiping out years of deductions — if you can't prove profit intent. AboveWater automatically documents your businesslike operation. Download a clean P&L to hand your accountant at year-end.
Tax protection
Season breakeven tracker
Know in June if you're behind — not in September when it's too late. AboveWater tracks your cumulative booking pace against your fixed costs and tells you exactly how many charters are left to cover them.
Pacing alerts
Booking source breakdown
Boatsetter vs. direct vs. referral — and what each channel actually costs you in fees and net margin. Know which sources are worth growing and which are eating your profit.
Channel analytics
Maintenance reserve tracker
Set aside a per-charter reserve automatically. When the October repair bill arrives, it comes from a jar you already filled — not your personal account. No more end-of-season surprises.
Cost management
Pricing recommendations
Every morning, a suggested price for each open slot — based on your cost floor, how far out the date is, and fill urgency. Never price below breakeven again.

03
Know your numbers. Stay protected.

Turns out Boatsetter fees plus fuel plus what I was putting aside for the engine were eating way more than I realized. I just never had it all in one place before.
