Setting up Berths / Spaces

Berths/spaces are any location that can be allocated to a boat for storage, or mooring, on or off the water. These might be swing moorings, piles, pontoons, marina berths, hard standing, racks or shed space.

Berths/spaces are typically defined in Groups so you will need to define at least one Group before creating a Berth/Space.

Each Berth/Space should have at least one charging rate (Price). You will need to define at least one Price before creating a Berth/Space.

The existing Groups are summarised in a list. Click on the name of Group to edit it.

To add a new Group click the "+ Group" button.

Enter a Name, Type and description (optional).

You can also set the general location of the Group on the map.

Berthing Prices

Select the Prices" menu option in the Berths/Space section.

The berthing prices are summarised in a list. Click on the name of Price to edit it.
