The prices, in plain pounds
All prices in GBP, VAT included · Thirty-day guarantee, no questions · The free way stays free
The log and the checklists cost nothing and always will — they are the reason boats join. The paid tiers pay for one thing only: the depth of her memory, and the years of it she can hold. There are no adverts anywhere, and nothing about you or her is ever sold.

Against what a boat already costs
Anyone who keeps a boat keeps a spreadsheet eventually. A year of Log, founding price, is 87 pence a week — fixed for good:
| What you pay anyway | Typical |
|---|---|
| Pump-out, each visit | £15–25 |
| BSS examination, every four years | £100–175 |
| Blacking, each slip, every few years | £600–1,200 |
| Winter heating, a season | £420–660 |
| Licence — rising 4.85% this April on a five-year glide path | £1,000+ |
| Mooring near the cities, a year | £2,000–5,000+ |
A year of Log costs less than a year of IWA membership (£57 at the door, checked October 2026). That is the company we price with — the waterways family, not the app store.

Questions people ask
- Is the free tier really forever?
- Yes — the log, the 14-day count, the BSS and winter checklists and their reminders. If the day ever comes that this cannot hold, the boat’s book exports and goes with you; her memory is yours, and it outlives any service.
- What counts as a conversation?
- A reply of hers. Reading your book, the counts and the checklists are plain code — unlimited on every tier, including Free. Only her conversation is quoted.
- Why a year, and not monthly?
- Boats are yearly creatures — licence, insurance, BSS. The year keeps the arithmetic honest and the price low; there is no monthly trick to un-do.
- What happens when the 500 founding places are gone?
- New boats pay £59 a year. Yours stays at £45 for as long as her book stays with us — that is what founding means here.
- Do I need a card to try it?
- No. Start free, no card. The ask comes only when you choose a paid tier, and the price is on the screen before anything else is.
