Every reply has to hold them all.

Subject: Croatia charter — July 2026, 8 guests

Date: Today, 9:14 AM

"Hi, looking at a 10-day crewed charter in Croatia next July, 8 guests (6 adults + 2 teens). Prefer a sailing yacht around 60-70ft with a chef. Budget approx $100k all-in for charter + APA."

Quick one — can you send photos of SY Vagabond's master cabin and the tender? Does the chef do Japanese?

Dear Marcus,

Thank you for the enquiry. For Croatia (Split → Dubrovnik) July 5–15 I have SY Vagabond (68ft sloop, 4 cabins, crew of 4 incl. chef) at €72,000 charter + 30% APA (~€21,600) + 13% VAT in Croatian waters. Chef has strong sushi background — sample menu linked. Tender is a 4.5m RIB with 60hp...

The WhatsApp blind spot

Charter clients decide on photos. Contract goes by email.

Your first reply is a PDF proposal. The negotiation happens on WhatsApp — "send me the galley," "kids' cabin?", "gluten-free menu?". Contract, APA wire, and provisioning questionnaire come back to email.

ReplyArk reads both channels and merges them per charter. Every photo sent, every preference mentioned, visible to your whole team.

Team visibility

See every charter proposal, every hold, every captain briefing — across your brokers.

Which proposals are sitting? Which boat is on hold for two families? Which broker hasn't replied in a week?

ReplyArk reads every broker's conversations — email and WhatsApp — and surfaces stalled charters, lapsing operator holds, and incomplete specs per person.

One picture per charter

Open any proposal, see the boat, the APA, and the itinerary in five seconds.

A client emails about Croatia. They WhatsApp about the master cabin. They email about VAT. A different broker handles availability.

ReplyArk shows the latest state every time. Boat, cruising ground, dates, pax, crew, APA + VAT breakdown, what's still missing.

Drafts that know the fleet

Every reply reads like your most senior broker wrote it.

ReplyArk grounds every draft in your fleet specs, cruising ground guides, chef menus, APA + VAT rules, past charters. Not the internet.

A new broker's proposal reads as confident as your veteran's — right boat, right numbers, right preferences remembered.

Business memory

Every preference, every past charter, every guest quirk — remembered.

The family that always wants a Laser dinghy on board. The principal who only drinks a specific champagne. The group that booked Vagabond two summers running. ReplyArk captures every detail, no data entry.

When they plan next summer, your team already knows how to brief the captain.

Don't let holds slip

Every silent proposal is a charter booked elsewhere.

A client holds Vagabond for two weeks. Another family makes an offer. If your broker doesn't follow up, the boat is gone.

ReplyArk surfaces every hold expiring, every proposal with no reply, every WhatsApp thread quiet longer than 5 days — with a nudge ready.
