Watersports
Everything a watersports centre needs in one unified system.
The challenge
Running a watersports centre isn’t easy. You’re dealing with wind, tides, kit, staff, and customers, often all changing by the hour.
Courses and hires that depend on the weather or tide
Instructors with different qualifications and limited availability
Kit and safety ratios that change every session
Refunds, reschedules and phone calls taking up time
Different prices for groups, members, and walk-ins
Managing thousands of bookings without losing oversight
How Sailia helps
