EZ BoatShare vs. myBoat
myBoat alternative that also keeps the crew safe.
myBoat handles share-based scheduling and expense splitting. EZ BoatShare adds float plans, overdue check-in alerts and an AI assistant that reads your boat's manuals.
For co-owners who want fair scheduling and shared costs — plus someone ashore who knows when you're due back.
myBoat, from NauticEd, is a long-running boat-sharing scheduler: the boat is divided into share units, reservation types rotate through the group, and expenses can be split between partners. It's inexpensive and it works. What it doesn't do is watch the water for you — there are no float plans sent to family, no alert when a check-in is overdue, and no AI assistant you can ask about your own engine. EZ BoatShare covers the same scheduling and money ground and then keeps going.
EZ BoatShare
Share-weighted reservations, swaps and waitlist, a shared expense ledger with settle-up, float plans with automatic overdue alerts, maintenance and repair logs, document vault, and Salty — an AI first mate trained on your boat's own manuals.

Share-unit scheduling with published rotation rules (Early Bird, Day, Overnight reservation types), check-on/check-off lists and expense splitting between partners, sold per user per month.

Why groups switch to us
Somebody ashore knows the plan
File a float plan in seconds and your family gets the route, the crew and the return time — plus an automatic nudge if you don't check in.
The boat's manuals become answers
Load the engine, VHF, fridge and reel manuals once. Ask Salty a plain question at the dock instead of hunting for a PDF.
Money that actually closes out
Every receipt splits across whoever had the boat, and settle-up tells each person exactly who to pay and how much.
Common questions
Is myBoat cheaper than EZ BoatShare?
Per head it usually is — myBoat is published from around $4.44 per user per month. We charge per boat with a small per-member add-on, and include float plans, safety alerts, maintenance and the AI assistant in that price.
Does EZ BoatShare use share units like myBoat?
Similar idea. You set each co-owner's ownership percentage per boat, and reservations are weighted against it over a rolling period, with unclaimed time released 48 hours out.
Can we split fuel and dockage automatically?
Yes. Log a receipt with a photo and it splits across whoever actually had the boat since the last one, with club-account bills kept out of the personal split.
Same fair scheduling. Plus the part that keeps everyone safe.
