5 Steps to
Set up a self-operating rental business that runs on your terms
Define your offer
Let's Book helps you set up what boats, when available, for whom. Choose which boats to rent, set your operating hours and seasons. Define your target customers - families, fishing enthusiasts, or day cruisers. Let's Book's dashboard makes it simple to configure your entire fleet and availability in minutes.
Set your rules
Let's Book automates time slots, pricing, booking limits. Create flexible time slots (hourly, half-day, full-day). Set dynamic pricing for peak times and seasons. Define booking rules - minimum rental periods, advance booking requirements, and capacity limits. Let's Book enforces all your rules automatically.
Guide your customers
Let's Book sends automated emails, instructions, and provides digital access. Customers receive automated booking confirmations, safety instructions, and boat location details. During their booked time slot, they use their phone to unlock and start your boats directly through Let's Book's connected hardware - no waiting for staff, no key handovers.
Automate payments
Handles deposits, full payments, refunds. Customers pay automatically when they book. Set security deposits that are held and released automatically. Handle cancellations and without manual processing. Let's Book processes all payments in the background through Stripe or Mollie.

Welcome to the new wave of boat rental
Customer Experience
Before departure, you will receive an SMS with a link to your booking detail page. On the booking detail page the customer can pick an available boat.
When the customer is ready for departure and the boat is also allowed to leave according to your rental settings, the customer can start the boat with the click of a button.
Once returned, they switch the boat off and with it they end their trip. As a tenant you can see the entire timeline of the trip on the booking detail page.
Benefits for you
Perfect overview
With this trip registration by the customer, you always have a perfect overview of how your rental is progressing at the moment. See who is late, who is sailing, and who is about to leave.
You also have remote access to your boats
Is there suddenly someone on your jetty who wants to sail? With the hardware connection you can also turn on the boat remotely, which can save you a lot of time and effort.
Customers have their freedom, you keep control
Registering your customers’ pickup and return times provides an accurate record of the rental duration so you can charge them correctly.
Less staff required
Checking customers in and out is your opportunity for personalized customer service, allowing you to build strong customer relationships and enhance the overall quality of service. However, when it is very busy on the jetty, or if you would like to have unmanned jetties, using Connected Fleet is a great solution.
Frequently asked questions
What does “fully automated boat rental” mean?
It means your customers can book, pay, receive instructions, unlock the boat, and return it — all without your physical presence. Let's Book handles the full process: from real-time availability to payments and access control.
How do customers get access to the boat?
Customers automatically receive access instructions via email or SMS based on their booking. At the start of their booked time slot, they can activate the boat themselves — thanks to the hardware integration with Trackunit or Qondor.
Let’s Book ensures the boat can only be started during the booked period. You’re responsible for installing the hardware, but we’re happy to assist remotely during setup and testing.
Can I manage multiple boats and locations?
Yes. Let's Book supports multi-boat and multi-location setups. You’ll have a real-time overview of each boat's status, including battery voltage, motor hours, and upcoming bookings.
How do I block out time for maintenance or private use?
You can easily block any boat manually or set up automated maintenance buffers after a certain number of hours or bookings. This ensures availability is always accurate and manageable.
What insights will I get from the system?
You’ll see clear reports on booking trends, fleet performance, customer behavior, and revenue. Live fleet data (like battery levels or usage hours) helps you make smart decisions.
What kind of rentals can I offer?
You can configure Let’s Book for anything from self-drive boats to multi-day charters or private cruises. Time slots, pricing, extras — everything is flexible and under your control.
What happens if a customer is late or causes damage?
Customers receive automatic reminders to return on time. If needed, you can manually charge fees, deduct from deposits, or schedule follow-up maintenance. You stay in control.
Can I get help setting this up?
Yes — we offer full onboarding support. While you’re responsible for the physical setup, our team can guide you remotely to make sure everything connects smoothly.
What payment methods are supported?
Customers can pay with credit card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, iDEAL, Bancontact, and many other local methods via Stripe or Mollie. You control whether they pay in full or just a deposit.
Can I integrate Let’s Book into my own website?
Absolutely. You can embed our booking widget on any website — WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, custom-built — and customize its look to match your brand’s style.
