Do I need to have a USCG license?


If you are an experienced sailor and can operate a boat independently, you may not necessarily need a USCG license! But if you are registering yourself as a Captain, a USCG license can go a long way at proving your credibility! At Sailo, we strive for professionalism, so we want to make sure that our captains are more than capable to operate a vessel thus putting boat owners’ mind at ease and facilitating a relaxing and fun outing for our renters.

How do I add services to my profile?

How do I add services to my profile?


To add captain services, go to your Captain Account and click on Services. Renters like having a captain on board because of the unique experiences he/she may provide (e.g. trip planning, cruising, snorkeling, cooking etc), so make sure you tell the community what you can do. Owners also like knowing what services you can provide them with (e.g. vessel maintenance program, mechanical repairs, key pickup/drop-off from/to the owner etc), so make sure you let them know how you can help out. Finally, share with the community the languages you are fluent in.
