In this episode of Captain’s Chat , Captain Liam Devlin speaks with Jack Haworth, Co-Founder of Digital Sea Service , about how DSS is helping yacht crew, captains, and vessels manage sea time, verification, reports, and career progression more efficiently. This is a practical conversation about one of the most common admin problems in yachting: crew losing valuable sea time because records are still too manual, too fragmented, or left until they become urgent. Jack explains how Digital Sea Service was created, why sea time needs to be protected from day one, and how digital records, automated testimonials, PDFs, verification support, career tracking, and achievement-based features can help both crew and vessels save time. The conversation also looks at vessel responsibility, free access for junior crew, technology onboard, AI, drones, and why better digital tools should free captains and officers to focus more on training, leadership, people, and guest experience. Key topics include: • Why yacht crew lose valuable sea time • How Digital Sea Service helps record and manage sea time • Why captains and chief officers need better admin tools • Automated reports, PDFs, and crew testimonials • Verification, digital signatures, and vessel data • Career tracking and achievement-based crew progression • Why free access matters for junior crew • How technology is changing yacht operations Guest: Jack Haworth, Co-Founder of Digital Sea Service Host: Captain Liam Devlin Prefer to read?
