CaptainPanel for fishing charters
Why do fishing charters need specific software?
Most fishing charter companies are a one-man show or a family-owned business. With limited time and resources at hand, they need a flexible online system that ticks many industry-specific boxes. Here is a list of services we manage for you:
- Synchronizing office bookings with online bookings in real time
- Eliminating the risk of double bookings
- Running the business from any device connected to the internet
- Having an always-updated view over bookings
How we became a trusted partner for fishing charter companies?

"CaptainPanel has made my life a lot less stressful as well as made my business more successful. I would highly recommend them to any fishing charter."
60% revenue growth in one year
With 40 years of fishing experience, over 14 of which he owned his own fishing charter boat, Captain Don Franklin had dedicated most of his life to growing his business as the owner of Sole-man Sportfishing in San Francisco, California. Despite the success of his charter, Don didn’t restrict his vast knowledge of his trade to paying customers, but also reached out to his local community where he donated a number of charity trips, fundraising trips and free fishing classes free of charge.
Top four features for fishing charters
-
Private/Shared trips You can created shared or private trips with the price set per person or for the entire charter.
-
Multiple day trips
Managing overnight or multiple day trips is one of the biggest challenges for some charter owners. Many charter companies offer early morning trips (starts at 5am or 6am) at the same time they offer overnight trips that start 9pm and ends at 6pm. CaptainPanel is built to handle this complexity, showing your clients the correct available packages and blocking the trips that overlap with existing bookings.
-
Powerful add-ons
We provide both ‘optional Add-ons’ and ‘Required Add-ons’. For the latter, you can even choose the pricing model you prefer (Per Booking, Per passenger, Per Adults/Kids).
-

After a trip you can upload your fish count and have a fishing report ready in minutes. You can share the fishing report in your website and social media all with one click.
Private/Shared trips
