How to Add Vessel Custom Contacts

Written by Eve Church

In Martide all your vessels have default contacts:

  • Crew Operator

  • Technical Superintendent

  • Designated Person Ashore

  • Procurement Officer

  • Vessel Operator

  • Payroll Officer

They are displayed on the Vessels page under the vessel's details. However, if you need more contacts, you can add your own. The new contact(s) will be added to all your vessels.

Here's how to use the Vessel Custom Contacts feature.

Sign into Martide and click on Settings in the menu under your profile icon. Then click Vessel Custom Contacts:

Type the name of your contact - for example Crew Manager or Recruitment Officer into the box. Check the box next to ‘Show on top of the vessel page’ if you want this option turned on. Click Save.

Your custom contact will now appear on the main page:

You can add as many custom contacts as you need. Click the pen icon to edit contacts if you need to.

You will go to the vessel's profile page. If you checked the ‘Show on top of the vessel page’ box for any contacts you will see them at the top, under the vessel’s basic info, for example:

If you didn’t check the ‘Show on top of the vessel page’ box for any contacts, no names will show here.

Scroll down to the Vessel Contacts section:
