Marina-Compliant Standards

Verified credentials for slipways, marina pens, and yard gates.

Upfront Safe Payments

Funds secured before work begins. Released only when you're satisfied dockside.

Two-Way Honest Ratings

Owners rate quality workmanship; taskers rate clear scopes and prompt sign-offs.

Kept on Local Waterways

Supporting local independent trades, yards, and hands on your home waters.

The Big Idea

Maintaining a boat shouldn't feel like a second job.

Finding a reliable marine tradie who actually shows up at the marina feels like searching for a needle in a haystack—and when you do, you get hit with an arbitrary “marine premium,” zero price transparency, and text-message chaos. Meanwhile, quality trades are stuck chasing unpaid invoices.

For Boat Owners

Endless chase, opaque pricing & scattered messages.

Unreliable callbacks, the arbitrary “marine premium” markup, and project details scattered across SMS, email, and Facebook groups—with zero protection on upfront deposits.

For Trades & Skilled Hands

Wasted quoting hours & unpaid invoice stress.

Brilliant independent contractors, family marine businesses, and skilled liveaboard cruisers wasting precious hours quoting dead-end leads, then spending Friday nights worrying about overdue payments.

MarineTasker changes the game.

A simple, secure app that puts control back in the hands of boat owners and the local marine trades who look after them—backed by upfront safe payments and zero quoting fees.

The MarineTasker Standard

A fairer, simpler way to get work done on the water.

We've replaced endless phone tag, mystery markups, and payment worries with an open, transparent platform. Boat owners get competitive quotes without the runaround, and trades get guaranteed payouts with zero lead fees.

Post Once, Quotes Come to You

Skip the hours spent ringing around. Add your vessel location (berth, mooring, or driveway) and let verified locals quote directly.

Transparent Market Rates

Compare real quotes side-by-side. See credentials, ratings, and exact pricing upfront—ending arbitrary pricing for good.

Guaranteed Safe Payments

Job funds are secured safely before tools leave the truck. Payout is released only once work is inspected and signed off dockside.

Verified Photo Proof

Before-and-after photos are uploaded straight into the app, creating a permanent, verified record for your vessel's history.

Simple 3-Step Process

From posted to paid in three simple steps.

No more endless phone calls or towing across town. Post where your craft sits—slipway, mooring, marina pen, or driveway trailer—and let verified locals handle the rest.
