Built for 46 CFR Subchapter M

The daily boat log that fills itself — by voice.

TugLogs turns your Subchapter M paperwork into spoken words. Log while you drive. Wheelhouse and engine room logs, drills, meetings, inspections, payroll, and fuel tax — tracked, reminded, and audit-ready. Built by a towboat captain, not a software company.

No paperwork pile. No missed drills. No failed exam surprises.

Subchapter M buries small operators in paper.

Daily logs, drill records, safety meetings, inspections, crew hours — all by hand, all while you're running a boat. The big fleet software is expensive and built for the big fleets. TugLogs is built for the operators the big software ignores — and it lets your wheelman log by talking instead of typing.

Everything the Coast Guard asks for — in one place

Voice logging
Log entries by talking — TugLogs understands towing language (tow, starboard, mile markers) and reads each entry back before it saves.
Engine room logs
One daily engine log — hours, running readings, and machinery checks together — with out-of-range alerts on oil pressure and coolant temperature, plus the pre-underway examination record the Coast Guard requires (46 CFR 140.615).
Drills & meetings board
Every required drill, safety meeting, and inspection — tracked by month, quarter, and year, with reminders before anything is missed.
Auto payroll
Crew days come straight off the daily logs — full day, half day, boat-to-boat transfers, all totaled for the pay period.
Fuel tax, done
Intracoastal Waterway hours are computed automatically for your quarterly fuel-tax filing — no more hand math.
Every form, fillable
Daily boat log, daily engine log, engine room inspections, nav assessment, LOTO permit, drill and inspection records — fillable on any device, voice-enabled, and printable to clean PDFs.
Records that pass the exam
Everything is retained, organized, and exportable — so when an auditor asks 'show me,' it's one tap away.
Built by a towboat captain

TugLogs wasn't designed in an office. It was built by someone who runs the boats, knows the paperwork, and knows exactly where the day gets slowed down. It speaks your language because it comes from your world.

Voice-first, hands-busy

Your wheelman shouldn't stop running the boat to type into a form. TugLogs asks, he answers out loud, and it fills the log — patent-pending technology no other towing software offers.
