Boat Helper

Project Overview
Connecting boat owners with trusted marine repair professionals
Boat Helper is a mobile marketplace designed to bridge the gap between boat owners and qualified marine craftsmen. Whether it's routine maintenance, emergency repairs, or specialised services, Boat Helper provides a seamless way to discover, evaluate, and book trusted professionals.
Challenges
Boat owners often struggle to find reliable professionals for repair and maintenance work. Traditional methods rely on personal recommendations, offline contacts, or fragmented communication channels, making the process inefficient and stressful.
Key challenges included:
Difficulty finding trusted service professionals
Lack of transparency in pricing
No structured way to compare offers
Communication happening outside organized systems
Limited visibility into provider credibility
This created friction, uncertainty, and trust issues throughout the maintenance journey.
Solution
BoatHelper was designed as a task-based service marketplace specifically for boat maintenance.
The solution creates a centralized platform where boat owners can:
Register and manage their boats
Create detailed service requests with photos and timelines
Receive multiple competitive offers from craftsmen
Compare pricing and provider profiles
Chat directly before making a decision
Approve the most suitable offer
Track task progress from start to completion
Complete payment securely
Leave reviews to build ecosystem trust
User Journey Mapping
To better understand emotional highs, pain points, and decision moments, I mapped the complete user journey from identifying a repair need to task completion.

User Flow
The user journey was translated into structured flows to ensure logical navigation, reduce friction, and create a seamless task-based experience.

Visual Foundation
A cohesive design system ensures consistency across every screen, built on clean typography, purposeful color, and systematic spacing.

The Finished Product
High-fidelity screens that bring the Boat Helper experience to life with polished visuals and thoughtful interactions.
