Better yard requests start with better vessel information.

Practical guidance for owners, captains and managers preparing a haul-out, storage or service request.

What measurements matter before a haul-out request?

LOA, beam, draft and vessel weight are core physical-fit inputs because yard lifts, access lanes and hardstand arrangements have limits.

Why lift capacity is only one part of compatibility

A yard may have enough rated lift capacity but still be constrained by beam, draft, blocking setup, access or service policy.

Confirmed scope vs estimated repair work

Some work can be quoted before haul-out. Other repair scopes cannot be finalized until the vessel is inspected. YardSlot keeps confirmed charges separate from estimates.

How YardSlot fees are structured

Submitting a sourcing or quote request is free. When a customer moves forward with a sourced option, YardSlot charges its sourcing fee when applicable plus a booking fee calculated from the provider’s pre-tax accepted agreement. Provider billing and provider-side taxes remain separate from YardSlot fees.
