Nothing over the rail but fish.
Nobody climbs across at midnight in a ripping current for a signature. The fishing captain's trip is on your Deck before they tie up, and every lift goes straight onto the ticket as it comes aboard. When the last bag is over, each of you signs on your own device, with paper if anyone wants it.
Any iPhone or iPad. Works with no signal. Your cannery connects its eLandings login; you weigh.
Every fishing boat's info shows up already filled in.
The fisherman fills in the trip on their own phone and sends it to your tender. It lands on your Deck with the permits, stat area and chill already in place, nothing to type and nothing to ask. One tap, and the crew is adding weights straight to the ticket, more than one boat at a time, while the skipper watches the live weights and the room left in the tanks.
No math when the last bag is over.
Tare comes off and bags are counted as you go, so the total is ready the moment the boat is empty. The fishing captain watches every lift land on their own phone, so the number you both sign is one you've both already seen.
Wrong bag? Fix it in place.The original stays in the history with who changed it and when.
Fish counts the State asks for.Weigh ten when the cannery wants a sample, and the counts fill themselves in.
Weighing on the iPad. Every lift, with its tank, as it came aboard.
No QC card to retype.
QC probes the fish on their own phone, and every temp lands on the ticket as it's taken. The average becomes the ticket's chill temp, ready before the last bag is over.
QC's own phone. Every probe goes straight to the ticket.
Everyone signs on their own device.
You sign on the iPad, and the fishing captain signs on their own phone from their own deck. No wet paperwork, no pen passed across. The ticket prints if anyone wants paper, and it files with eLandings under the cannery's login the next time you have signal.
Two permits, one ticket.Both permit holders sign, each on their own phone.
Phone dead?The captain signs on your iPad, and your crew signs as witness.
The captain signs on their own phone. Print or send the PDF if anyone wants paper.
When the holds are full.
Every tank keeps its count by species as the bags go in. Pump a tank across to another tender and both boats sign for it. Offload at the cannery and the dock weight sits beside your tally.
One iPad, the whole crew.
Everyone has their own account and a four-digit PIN. Hand the iPad over at shift change and every weight, temp and signature after that carries the next person's name.
No signal, no problem.
Weigh, sign and close a ticket with no signal at all. Every device keeps its own copy, and it all catches up the moment Starlink comes back.
Next on the tender.
Weights straight from the crane scale over Bluetooth. Scanning a permit card for a boat's first delivery. Fuel and grocery tickets on the same run as the fish ticket. Ask us which comes first.
How a tender gets started.
Set up once before the season, by the skipper.
