Sailboat maintenance, ordered by what matters first.
Keelyr turns your vessel's systems, intended use and previous history into a safety-prioritised maintenance programme for the first 90 days and beyond. Safety-critical work stays visible, and every task tells you whether it suits DIY or needs a professional.
Or use it in any modern mobile browser.
One vessel and Keelyr's safety-prioritised maintenance programme are free. Monohulls and catamarans.

Most boat maintenance apps assume you already know your boat
A paper logbook, spreadsheet or generic reminder app can record what you enter. In your first year the hard part is not recording the work. It is discovering what the work is and ordering it by consequence.
On your own
- A survey of mixed quality and a few manuals
- Forum threads and videos of unknown reliability
- No clear service history for the engine, rigging, or seacocks
- Safety-critical jobs buried among cosmetic ones
With Keelyr
- A plan built from your vessel and its history
- Plain-language tasks in the order they matter
- Red, amber, and green risk on every item
- A clear line between DIY-safe work and professional work
From unfamiliar boat to a clear maintenance plan
Set up your vessel in a short guided process and Keelyr does the sequencing, producing a prioritised plan you can use on your phone.
- 1
Tell Keelyr about your boat
A guided setup captures the basics, propulsion and systems, how you plan to sail, and the vessel’s history, including whether it came out of charter.
- 2
Get your first-90-days plan
Keelyr generates a prioritised task list sequenced across the year, from the first week to the first haul-out and annual cycle. Safety-critical items sit at the top.
- 3
Work the list and log it
Complete a task and log it from your phone, including engine hours or miles. The next service is scheduled for you, so nothing quietly lapses.
Inside Keelyr
See the plan before you build yours
Current product views using synthetic vessel details. The same safety hierarchy carries from the dashboard into each task and checklist.
Vessel dashboard
See the work that matters now before scheduled maintenance.
Prioritised programme
Know why a task matters and whether it is appropriate to do yourself.
Dockside checklist
Work through each check on your phone and turn a failed item into follow-up work.
Everything pointed at one job: a safer, well-kept boat
The maintenance core is free to use. Keelyr earns its keep around the edges, never by changing the advice.
Safety always comes first
Red-class items are unmissable in every list and on the dashboard. A safety-critical job never recommends DIY without the right caveat.
A plan for your exact boat
Tasks are generated from the systems you captured and the vessel’s history. An ex-charter boat gets a programme aimed at where charter use actually wears.
Know what is safe to do yourself
Every task is labelled DIY beginner, DIY intermediate, or professional, so you can take on the right jobs and call a pro for the rest.
Checklists built for the marina
Run a pre-departure or storm-prep checklist on your phone. A failed item turns into a defect or a follow-up task before you close the run.
Vessel Intelligence
See the known watch points for your make and model as inspection prompts, each with a confidence label. Pre-purchase? Generate a brief to direct your surveyor.
Visual Check
Photograph a fitting or area of concern and get an advisory read on what to inspect more closely. It points you at things to check, it does not replace a survey.
Built for new boat owners finding their feet
Keelyr is for the first-year owner who needs help discovering what they own and sequencing what to do about it.
New owner, coastal day sailor
You bought a used monohull or cat for family weekends and short coastal trips, and you want it safe without becoming a full-time project.
New owner of an ex-charter boat
Your boat carries far more engine hours and crew variability than a privately owned one. Keelyr aims the programme at where that history bites.
Aspiring cruiser
You are working towards multi-day coastal cruising and need maintenance discipline and a clear path to readiness.
Returning owner
You have owned boats before and want to move from notes and memory to a structured, documented record.
Advice you can trust with your family aboard
Keelyr is a commercial product, but the revenue sits around the maintenance core, never inside the safety advice.
Decided by rules, not guesswork
A deterministic rules engine decides which tasks you see, driven by your vessel and a curated content library. AI only helps with wording and photo triage, never whether a safety task exists.
Built in Australia, sails anywhere
Keelyr is Australian built and priced in AUD, and can be used for monohulls and catamarans wherever you sail. Always follow local regulations, manufacturer schedules and advice from a qualified professional.
Usable where you actually work
The marina is the office. Keelyr is built mobile-first, with focused tasks and checklists designed to be practical on a phone at the dock.
What owners are saying
Reviews from owners using Keelyr on their own boats.
Just signed up to Keelyr, which prompted a bunch of things for me to check on my boat... I think it's a great idea, unfortunately I'm one of these people that writes nothing down and stores everything in my head! Great prompts for stuff that I take for granted.
Simple pricing, safety never gated
The safety programme is free for every owner, always. Keelyr Plus adds convenience and depth around it.

Common questions
Short answers to what new owners ask us most.
What is Keelyr?
Keelyr is an app that plans and tracks maintenance for your sailboat, available on Google Play for Android and in any modern web browser. You describe your boat once and it builds a prioritised task list for your first year, starting with the first 90 days. Every task carries a red, amber, or green risk band and says whether it suits DIY or a professional.
Is Keelyr free to use?
One vessel and Keelyr's safety-prioritised maintenance programme are free. This includes the vessel profile, prioritised plan, task logging and service scheduling. Keelyr Plus adds up to 3 vessels, exports, and unlimited Visual Check and parts-label scans. Paid features never change the safety advice.
Is there a Keelyr mobile app?
Yes. The Android app is on Google Play. It uses the same account and shows the same plan as the website, so anything you log on the boat is there when you sit down at a laptop. Keelyr is built mobile first, so if you are not on Android you can use it in any modern phone browser. Keelyr Plus is purchased and managed on the web rather than inside the app.
What should I check first on a boat I have just bought?
Start with the systems that keep water out and get you home: seacocks and through-hulls, standing rigging, steering, and the engine raw-water cooling. Keelyr puts these safety-critical jobs at the top of your plan, ahead of cosmetic work.
Does Keelyr work for ex-charter yachts?
Yes. An ex-charter boat carries more engine hours and heavier crew wear than a privately owned one, so Keelyr aims its maintenance programme at the systems charter use wears hardest.
Does Keelyr support catamarans?
Yes. Keelyr plans maintenance for monohulls and catamarans. Setup captures your propulsion and systems, so the plan matches the boat you actually own.
Does Keelyr replace a marine survey?
No. Keelyr is a planning aid that helps you organise and prioritise maintenance, and its photo analysis is advisory only. For a purchase decision or a structural concern, engage a qualified marine surveyor or technician.
Can I use Keelyr outside Australia?
Yes. Keelyr is Australian built and priced in AUD, and can be used for monohulls and catamarans wherever you sail. Always follow local regulations, manufacturer schedules and advice from a qualified professional. Payments go through Stripe, and Keelyr runs on Android and in any modern web browser.
Turn your unfamiliar boat into a clear maintenance plan.
Tell Keelyr about your vessel and see what needs attention first, what can wait and when to call a professional. One vessel is free.
