Case Study Houseboat Charter Australia

Why Hawkesbury Afloat Switched to Purpose-Built Marine Tracking

Discover how upgrading from a generic vehicle tracker to NeboFleet delivered vital Restricted Zone alerts, unmatched fleet oversight, and a better experience for their 20-vessel houseboat fleet.

Why Hawkesbury Afloat Switched to Purpose-Built Marine Tracking visual
"Swapping from a vehicle GPS system to NeboFleet was one of the best decisions we've made!"
THE CHALLENGE

Before NeboFleet, businesses like Hawkesbury Afloat had no option other than vehicle tracking systems that simply weren’t suitable for vessel tracking

Navigational Hazards

Renters getting lost in complex local waterways.

Vessel Groundings

Costly hull damage from boats entering shallow waters.

Late Returns

Late returns disrupting the daily booking schedule.

THE SOLUTION

Owner Paul Ritter needed a modern, marine focussed tracking solution for his 20+ fleet of house and dayboats. Now his customers are safer, and his vessels come back undamaged.

Fleet dashboard

Full fleet visibility makes it easy to assist guests, and to brief them before they head out

Restricted Areas

Customers see a live map with their boat location and restricted areas. Alerts are raised if they wander into a restricted area.

POI and turn-around locations

POI's and turn-around locations on the guest's map keeps them engaged and aware when they need to head back to base

THE OUTCOMES

Real world results achieved immediately after deployment.

Fully informed staff and guests

Safer operations for guests and boats

Fewer groundings and less vessel wear and tear

Significantly increased operational efficiencies

Improved customer experience

Guests love the live map and local info

"Nebo is clearly focused on tracking boats (not cars or trucks!) and their customer service is the best. We really value the Restricted Zone alerts, and our guests love scanning the Guest Map QR code to see their location and local info. Highly recommended!"
