What it does

Six things, one app.

Career logbook for life

Every joining, every contract, every voyage, every port — recorded automatically while on APRON, editable when not. The professional record that follows the seafarer across an entire career.

Expiry tracker

Every certificate, visa, medical, and training course. Countdown on the home screen, push notification before anything lapses. No more renewals slipping through the cracks.

SOP guidance

Read-only access to the current vessel's SOPs — departmental procedures, safety, drills, emergency response. The reference manual lives in the seafarer's pocket.

Notice acknowledgment

Captain or HOD posts a notice; crew see it in the app and acknowledge with a tap. No more chasing the notice board, no more lost paper trails.

Duty, rest & wellness

Daily work-and-rest entry, mood and wellness check-ins, fatigue index. Private to the seafarer, aggregated to the captain — risk surfaces before an incident, not after one.

References & sea-service letters

At off-boarding the captain generates them in a few clicks. They live in the TouchBase profile forever — shareable to future employers, crewing agents, yacht managers, training centres.

Stays with you. Across vessels. For life.

When the seafarer joins a non-APRON vessel, TouchBase still holds the record — they just lose the live yacht-side automation. Their career data is theirs. On their phone. Always.

In plain language: it's LinkedIn for the maritime world, lived through one app.

Shore-side management dashboard
One system, every direction

How it connects.

TouchBase doesn't live in isolation. Every document uploaded, every task completed, every certificate renewed flows directly into APRON — and syncs to the vessel's NAS.

Shore-side management sees the same data in the cloud. One system, every direction.
