Yacht Crew Center (YCC), an AI-powered platform connecting yacht crew, vessels, owners and marine businesses, launches at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show 2026, with memberships going live on 28 October.
Founded by yacht crew, YCC is a unified digital ecosystem that supports crew in the day-to-day management of a superyacht. The launch will include a verified crew profile and digital credential that travels with crew throughout their careers, with secure document storage and certificate expiry reminders.
A job board sits alongside a verified crew network, with every account checked to keep out scams and fake postings. Yacht and owner tools cover crew rosters and permissions, charter guest preferences and itineraries, and APA oversight, and a built-in AI Assistant comes as standard on every plan.
It is also built for yachting professionals to source marine supplies and equipment, compare verified suppliers and book trusted services directly through the interface. Ordering, service booking, crew documents and financial records all sit behind one login, accessible from any device - replacing the patchwork of apps, spreadsheets and email chains that crew currently juggle across vessel operations.
The platform also links crew members to verified local services such as accommodation, professional training resources and career development tools, and incorporates an integrated network of mental wellbeing resources tailored to the distinct pressures of crew life.
Paying members earn YCC Coins through YCC Rewards on travel bookings and marketplace orders. Crew membership is free to start, with paid tiers from $35 a month that add perks including 24/7 doctor access, airport lounges and fast passport and visa services. Yacht plans start from $149 a month and marine businesses can list for free.
