Get reminded when a job on your boat is due, by date, engine hours, sailing time or distance.
Keeping track of what's due
Each boat has many jobs that come round again: oil, impeller, seacocks, rigging, life jackets. Manta keeps them in one list, with a coloured chip that shows how long is left.
Getting started from a template
A ready-made list suggests the usual jobs with typical intervals, adapted to your type of boat. Tick what your boat has, adjust the intervals, and your reminders are set up.
How a reminder is due
- By date, once or repeating
- By engine hours, for the engine, drive and fuel system
- By sailing time or distance, for sails and rigging
- By date and use together, whichever comes first
Marking a job as done
Tap the button and pick the day. Manta writes it into the maintenance log and counts the next interval from that day. If you tapped it by mistake, you can undo it.
Notifications
Reminders by date notify you on the morning they are due. Reminders by use notify you once when the boat reaches them.
Free and Pro
Maintenance reminders are part of Manta Pro, and so is the maintenance log. Only fuel and engine-hour logs are free.
Questions
Are maintenance reminders free?
Reminders are part of Manta Pro, and so is the maintenance log. Only fuel and engine-hour logs are free.
Can a reminder go by engine hours?
Yes. Jobs on the engine, drive and fuel system can go by engine hours. Sails and rigging can go by sailing time or distance. Any job can go by date, or by both date and use.
What happens if I do a job early?
The interval restarts from the day you did it. Replace something after six years instead of ten, and the next ten years count from then.
Where do the suggested intervals come from?
They are typical values from manufacturers and boating guides, and you can change every one. Your engine's manual and local rules come first.
