Vessel Records

Overview

A vessel record is the persistent record of a marine asset in VesselOne. It stores identifying information, specifications, and links to all work orders and service history associated with that vessel.

What a Vessel Record Contains

• Vessel name (required)
• Registration number (required)
• Vessel type (Motor Yacht, Sailing Yacht, Commercial, RIB, etc.)
• Hull identification number (HIN)
• Year, make, and model
• Current berth or location
• Vessel ref (V1-XXXXXX) — assigned automatically, permanent

Vessel Ref (V1-XXXXXX)

Each vessel record receives a ref in the format V1-XXXXXX when first created. The ref is how your company identifies this vessel: it appears on work orders, in service history, and will be used for QR code scanning in a future release.

A boat whose owner has a VesselOne account also has a platform-wide boat number, which the owner sees in their portal and on anything they share. The ref and the boat number are different numbers for the same boat, so quote the ref when you are talking to your own team and the boat number when you are talking to the owner.

Vessels and Work Orders

Every work order must be linked to a vessel. You can view all work orders for a vessel from the vessel detail page under the Work Orders tab. Archiving a vessel does not delete its work orders — they remain accessible but the vessel cannot receive new work orders.
