Boat rental
Ask a boat rental operator what breaks and the answer is never the booking form. The constraint here is a cancelled slot re-opening itself in time to be re-sold.
NO MONTHLY FEE · 4.5% AT CHECKOUT · PAID BY YOUR CUSTOMER
Boat rentals combine long booking windows, weather cancellations, and a compliance load nothing else in the category carries. Sobriety checks, licensed operator records, fuel reconciliation and slip assignment all have to hold together. A cancellation on Thursday has to re-open Saturday's slot by itself or the slot sits empty.
What the platform does here is narrow and specific. Rates by date range, day of week and length of stay, edited by the operator directly with no support ticket and no vendor lead time.
The problem it removes: peak weeks priced like shoulder weeks because changing a rate took a phone call. The number to watch is revenue per available unit through the peak weeks.
Rates sit against date ranges, so peak, shoulder and off-season are separate rather than one price with manual overrides on top. Day-of-week rules layer over that, because a Saturday in July prices differently from a Tuesday in July.

Bodhisys charges no monthly fee. The platform takes 4.5%, added to each reservation and paid by your customer rather than by you.
Bodhisys is rental operations software for companies that rent things, vehicles and experiences. It was built for rental inventory rather than adapted from a ticketing system, and it has been in market since 2023.
For boat rental companies, rates by date range, day of week and length of stay, edited by the operator directly with no support ticket and no vendor lead time.
There is no monthly fee. A 4.5% charge is added to each reservation and paid by your customer at checkout.
Bodhisys is younger than FareHarbor and Peek Pro and has a smaller install base. An operator whose revenue is mostly timed tours, or who needs a long list of third-party integrations today, is better served by an incumbent.
A tour flow sells a seat at a time. A rental flow has to capture what leaves, where it goes, when it comes back and who is responsible for it in between.
There is no monthly fee. A 4.5% charge is added to each reservation and paid by your customer at checkout.
Yes. Customers, future reservations and booking history migrate from FareHarbor, Peek Pro and Bike Rental Manager.
