How to Add a Vessel

Written by Eve Church

The Vessels page is where you can see information about your fleet. Log into Martide and click Vessels on the left. You'll go to this page:

Here you can:

  • Add a new vessel.

  • Filter your vessels by vessel role assignees, vessel name, status and flag, and client by clicking the funnel icon at the top. This will open a side panel with the filters in it.

  • Download an Excel spreadsheet of your vessels.

  • See a vessel's name, flag, IMO, if the vessel adheres to the MLC, the number of crew, Master and Chief Engineer, and status (active etc.)

  • Click a vessel’s name to go to its profile page.

Note: Vessels have two statuses: Active or Archived. Default view is active vessels only. To see archived vessels, click the blue funnel icon to filter your vessels. Go to the Vessel Status filter and click Archived in the drop down menu then Search. Archived vessels will now show on the main page.

To change a status, click on a vessel and then on the the Status box in the top section on the Vessel Details tab. If you change a vessel to Archived it will disappear from the main page and you'll need to use the filters to see it again.

A Note About Contact Details

Contacts are Crew Operator, Technical Superintendent, Designated Person Ashore, Procurement Officer, Vessel Operator and Payroll Officer. When you select a User for a role, the relevant Pipeline stage will be assigned to them and the system will send them a notification to let them know. You can also add custom vessel roles if you need them.
