The $300/hour problem.
Most captains do crew share math in Excel. Some use a notebook. When a crew member disputes their cut, there's no paper trail. When the IRS asks about 1099 classification, there's no documentation. When your CPA asks for settlement records at tax time, you spend two hours recreating them from memory. MarineBookkeeper eliminates all of it - for $97, once.
Three steps. One settlement sheet.
