Built around the vessel record

Fathom Fleet gives crews a practical digital logbook for commercial vessel operations. The record can include voyage details, crew on board, watch notes, drills, checklists, defects, incident reports, machinery hours, bunkering, and more. Entries made on the vessel become immediately available for anyone on the team.

Log entries at sea

Crews can record voyage details, watch notes, handovers, drills, incidents, fuel, and machinery hours even when mobile coverage drops out.

Consistent event types

Structured entry types help masters and crew capture the right details for daily operations, not just a short free-text note.

Searchable shore access

Operations, maintenance, and compliance teams can find past entries by vessel, date, incident, or a particular event.

Evidence for survey and review

Check what happened on a particular day, compare machinery hours against servicing plans, and pull supporting records for a survey or internal review.

What the logbook records

Watch logs and event entries

Voyage records, watch notes, drills, checklists, reports, and incidents can each use a format suited to the task. Crew keep the speed of a daily log while the business gains a record that can be filtered and understood later.

Voyage record and handover trail

Trip logs, crew changes, completed checks, defects, and follow-up actions stay connected to the voyage. That gives masters and crew a clear handover.

Records for machinery hours and bunkering

Engine hours, generator hours, fuel taken on, and related notes can be recorded with the same daily workflow. The result is a more useful trail for maintenance intervals, fuel reconciliation, charter review, and incident follow-up.

What changes day to day

A vessel logbook is only useful if it is complete, legible, and available when someone needs to make a decision. Paper books are familiar, but they slow the business down.

Fewer missing details

Structured fields prompt crews for the information that normally gets lost in a paper margin: vessel, time, location, activity, personnel, equipment, follow-up actions, and supporting notes.

Better handovers

Incoming crew and shore staff can see the latest operational notes, defects, completed checks, and items still waiting for action.

Cleaner maintenance history

Machinery hours, fuel movements, and checks sit with the vessel history, giving you a clearer basis for servicing, investigation, and cost review.

Records ready for review

When a surveyor, customer, or insurer asks for evidence, the team can easily export the relevant logbook history.
