Vessel Settings → General holds the yacht particulars (General Settings): what identifies the yacht, its technical and classification details, the photo and logo used across the app, a log of changes, and the archive action.
What is shown
The top of the tab shows the yacht's logo and name, the Flag, and, where they have been filled in, Build year and Builder. If a last refit year is recorded, it appears after the build year (for example 2008/2019).
Below that are the yacht's photo with its licence tier badge, and three groups of yacht particulars:
- Identity & Registration: MMSI, IMO, Call Sign, Official Number.
- Technical Details: Model, LOA (in metres,
m), Type (Private, Private (limited charter) or Commercial), GT, Total Power (inkW, when set). - Classification: Class Society.
Editing the yacht particulars
Click Edit to turn the tab into a form. You need the Vessel Settings → Edit permission. In the on-board app this tab is read-only, with a Managed in cloud notice: yacht particulars are always edited in the cloud app.
Required fields are Name, Type (Private, Private (limited charter) or Commercial),
Flag (picked from a list of countries) and LOA (in metres). GT, Total Power (in
kW), Class Society, MMSI, IMO, Call Sign, Official Number, Builder,
Model, Build Year and Last Refit Year are optional. LOA, GT and Total Power must be
positive numbers, and Build Year and Last Refit Year must be positive whole numbers.
You also replace the images in this form:
- Change image uploads the yacht's photo. A cropping window opens first, so the photo always fits the app's shape.
- The small pencil button on the logo uploads the yacht's logo.
Save stores the particulars and images together. Cancel leaves without saving. If you press Cancel or go to another page with unsaved changes, you are asked first, and you can save from that prompt.
The MMSI is also what places the yacht on the maps, so a missing or mistyped MMSI is the first thing to check when a yacht does not show up there.
History log
Below the photo, the History log lists changes to the yacht particulars and status: Vessel created, Vessel edited, Vessel archived, Vessel restored and Vessel mode changed. Each entry shows the email address of whoever made the change, and an edit lists which fields changed from what to what. The six latest entries are shown. If there are more, a View the full history log button appears.
Archiving the yacht
Archive is offered only to Management Admins, and only while the yacht is active. It asks for confirmation (Yes, Archive it!, or No, Go Back! to cancel). Afterwards it tells you the yacht can still be found in the Archive section of the fleet, with a link there. Archiving deletes nothing: an archived yacht keeps its data and can be restored. While a yacht is archived, the Edit and Archive buttons are hidden and its particulars cannot be changed.
For what happens to an archived yacht, and for restoring or deleting it, see the Fleet section.
