A well-kept boat should sell like one.
You already know everything that's been done to your boat. Now there's somewhere buyers can see it too.

Where the work you've put in actually shows.
Every listing claims meticulous maintenance, so buyers have learned to ignore the words. On HullGrade the history is right there on the listing: what was done, and when. A boat that's actually been looked after stands out, and it can ask for what it's worth.
How it works
Add your boat and its details
Then it forks, and you can take the other road whenever you like.
Sell now
Records already available? Upload the stack, check what we pulled out of it, and your listing goes live with the history attached.
Maintain now, sell later
Confirm the gear aboard and build the record as you go. The proof is already there the day you decide to list.
Brokers take both roads at once. Inventory still needs looking after while it sits, and the record that builds is already there when the boat sells.
Don't learn the app. Just tell Pel.
Boat software fails the same way every time. It turns the owner into a data-entry clerk, and after a month nobody's logging in. So we built the app you can talk to.
He handles the paperwork; you run the boat.
Look for Captain Pel in the bottom-right corner once you're signed in.
What's due, what's done.
Add a piece of equipment and HullGrade proposes its service intervals. Nothing lands on your schedule you didn't approve.
After that it's just the list. You know nothing's overdue before you leave the dock, and the record builds itself.
Your invoices are your business.
Most tools send your invoices off to a commercial AI without asking you first. We ask, and we also built the other option. HullGrade Private AI reads them on our own hardware, so they never reach a third-party AI at all.
One switch, in your settings
Pick who reads your files once, and every upload follows it: the record form, bulk upload, your portal link.
What Captain Pel sees
His conversation runs on the commercial service, but your invoice never does. He only gets what was read out of it: the work, the date, the cost, the business. Names, addresses, phone numbers and your boat's name are left out when the invoice is read, so they never reach him.
Nothing personal on the listing
Buyers see the service, the date, and the cost. Not your name, address, or the invoice itself.
Equipment research always uses the commercial service, meaning manual study and maintenance recommendations. That's public reference material rather than your paperwork.
Buyers arrive already sold.
The whole history travels with the listing, personal details stripped out. You get fewer tire-kickers and a quicker sale, which matters because every month a boat sits is another month of slip fees, upkeep, and depreciation.
On the listing
Every service, what it cost, and who did it, right where buyers are looking.
Answers on demand
Buyers can ask HullGrade about the boat at any hour, so the early questions get answered before they ever reach you.
HullGrade is invite-only — for now.
We're onboarding owners in waves. Get in touch and we'll set your boat up when a spot opens.
Some of us don't mind the money, or the Saturdays, or the time it takes to find someone who'll do it right. It's how a boat is supposed to be kept — safer for it, too, and you know that every time you leave the dock. That care has always been worth something at resale. It just never had anywhere to show up. HullGrade is where it does — and where the buyers who care about it can finally find you.
Built in Vero Beach, Florida, by a professional captain.
