How it started.
Field Guide Marina began with one marina and one very ordinary problem. A tenant was away when the renewal notice arrived, and when the marina called, the only ways to pay were a check in the mail or a visit to the office. Everyone involved knew there had to be a better way.
So we spent a year with that marina before writing much code: how the office ran, what tenants needed, how boat rentals were booked and how no-shows were handled. Then we built the first version of the system, to do exactly what they needed. Renewals and payments moved online, boat rentals were paid in advance, and the notebooks and filing cabinets started to empty.
It’s a real system, built by real people, to solve real problems. And it isn’t finished. We keep listening to marina owners, staff, tenants and renters, and what we hear becomes the next improvement.
