Crew management

Yacht crew management software,
built for life on board​

Scyllastar brings your whole crew into a single system — onboarding, regulatory documents, expenses and MLC rest-hours — so the captain spends less time on paperwork and more time running the vessel. Every declaration flows straight into compliant records and owner-ready reports.

Onboard your crew in minutes — with the right access for each role

The captain adds each crew member in a few taps and grants tailored access rights based on their role and responsibilities. A deckhand, a purser and a chief engineer each see exactly what they need — nothing more. Permissions stay under the captain’s control, so sensitive financial and compliance data is only ever visible to the people who should see it.

Never miss a certificate expiry again

Every crew member’s regulatory documents — STCW certificates, ENG1 medicals, seaman’s books, visas and flag-state endorsements — live in one place with their expiry dates. Scyllastar tracks them automatically and alerts the captain and manager well before anything lapses. A certificate expiring mid-season is a flag-state compliance failure; here it is simply a reminder handled weeks in advance. Full detail in our guide to STCW and ENG1 certificates.

No more issues with the petty cash

Crew photograph a receipt the moment they spend. The AI reads the amount, date and category, the captain validates on board, and finance receives clean, structured entries — the petty cash reconciles itself. No shoebox of receipts, no month-end guesswork. It is one piece of the yacht’s broader financial administration, handled at source by the people already on board.

MLC rest-hours declared in seconds, from any device

Crew log their working and rest hours directly in Scyllastar’s online tool. The interface makes daily declarations quick and unambiguous, and the system automatically flags any breach of MLC / STCW rest-hour requirements — before it becomes a non-conformity at a port state control inspection. New to the rules? Read MLC rest hours explained.

Compliant MLC rest-hour records, as a PDF in one click

From those daily declarations, Scyllastar generates the official MLC rest-hour record sheets as ready-to-sign PDFs — correctly formatted for inspection and audit. No spreadsheets to maintain, no manual formatting: the compliant document is one click away, per crew member, per month.

Automatic crew activity reports — zero extra admin

Every declaration feeds an activity report generated automatically for each crew member. Managers and owners get a clear, up-to-date picture of who did what and when — hours worked, leave, rotations — without anyone rebuilding it by hand. The reporting writes itself from the data the crew already enters.
