Made to live aboard

Marine-grade laminated vinyl that shrugs off salt, sun and diesel. Clean and dry the surface, then press firmly from the centre out.

Replacement packs

Lost or damaged? Replacement packs are £14.95 and carry the same QR, so nothing on the boat needs re-linking.

What a scan shows

The professional who did the work can stamp it. Anyone else sees the public passport, if you've made it public. Your name, contact details, costs and notes are never shown.
