Services · Website development · Yacht charter websites
Codeeo provides yacht charter website development UK charter companies, sailing schools that charter, broker networks and multi base operators can run from one platform. We build national fleet pages, base and region sections for the Solent, the West Country, Wales and the west coast of Scotland, compliant enquiry and pricing displays, and a CMS each base manages for itself. Customers anywhere in Britain find the right yacht in the right waters, and head office keeps the brand and the data consistent.
The website handles presence and enquiries rather than taking payment. It shows the fleet, ranks in every region you serve, explains qualifications and terms clearly and sends each lead to the base or broker that can answer it, whether that is a base manager on the Hamble or a broker in Edinburgh.

Platform capabilities
A charter company with one base can manage its website informally. Once you run boats from Hamble, Falmouth and Largs, or sell through brokers in several cities, the website becomes a platform with many editors, many audiences and a lot of regulated wording. Inconsistent prices, out of date certificates or a stray cookie script on one regional page become national problems.
Yacht charter website design UK operators need starts with governance: a shared design system, central fleet data and clear rules about who can publish what. On top of that sit region and base sections that feel local, written by the people who know the waters. The capabilities below are the ones national operators ask for most, and we decide the order of delivery with you in discovery, usually starting with fleet data and governance because everything else depends on them.
Each base gets its own section with sailing area guides, getting there information, the yachts kept there and the team. Templates are shared, so a new base launches by filling in content rather than designing pages, and every section stays on brand. Getting there pages cover rail, road and ferry links for customers travelling from cities far from the coast.
New bases go live quickly and look like part of one company.
One fleet record per yacht, holding specifications, photos, home base and coding status, feeding every page that shows that yacht. Where you already use a fleet or booking system, we import from it so the website never contradicts operations. Coding status under the MCA small commercial vessel rules can be recorded per yacht and shown where relevant.
One source of truth for every yacht, everywhere it appears.
Clear pages explaining what each charter type requires, such as RYA Day Skipper or an ICC for bareboat abroad, with links between bareboat yachts and skippered alternatives. Enquiry forms ask about qualifications in a friendly, plain way.
Customers understand requirements before they enquire.
Where you show prices, templates present the total a consumer will pay, with mandatory charges included rather than revealed later, in line with the drip pricing rules under the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024. VAT treatment is stated clearly for consumer and business visitors.
Headline prices that match what customers are asked to pay.
Structured pages for booking terms, weather policy and cancellation, written with your solicitor. They explain that dated leisure services generally fall outside the cancellation period in the Consumer Contracts Regulations, and set out your own policy instead. Scottish bases can carry wording reviewed under Scots law.
Fewer disputes because the rules were clear before booking.
Roles for head office, base managers and brokers, with approval steps for price and terms changes. Base teams update guides and news for their own waters, while central marketing controls navigation, design and national campaigns.
Local knowledge on the page without losing control of the brand.
A site structure that ranks for national phrases such as yacht charter UK and for regional searches like skippered charter Isle of Wight, backed by a Google Business Profile for each base, location schema and internal links between regions and yachts. Duplicate wording between bases is avoided so each section earns its own rankings.
Visibility across the country and around every marina you use.
A single consent platform across every section, compliant with PECR, plus privacy notices, retention rules and processor records under UK GDPR. If enquiries are shared with partner operators, the forms and notices say so clearly, as ICO guidance expects.
One compliant approach rather than a patchwork by region.
Components built to WCAG 2.2 AA, from filters to galleries to forms, so accessibility holds as editors add pages. Base pages can include boarding and facilities information for guests with mobility needs, which supports your duties under the Equality Act.
Accessibility that survives years of content updates.
Enquiries route by base, yacht or broker, into your CRM with source and campaign attached. Head office sees national reporting, while each base sees its own pipeline and the pages that feed it. Weekend and out of season rules keep enquiries moving when a base is closed.
Every lead has an owner and every campaign a measurable result.
Who this fits
The UK charter trade is spread around the coast, from the busy Solent marinas to quieter bases in Cornwall, Anglesey, the Clyde and the Hebrides, while many customers live far inland. A yacht charter web development company UK firms hire must therefore build for several audiences at once: local sailors, holidaymakers travelling across the country and overseas visitors. These are the businesses we usually build national sites for. Each starts from a different problem, so the first release and the order of work differ too.
Companies running fleets from two or more marinas often have a website that grew one base at a time, with mismatched pages and different enquiry forms. We bring every base into one structure with shared fleet data and region sections, then migrate the old pages with redirects so local rankings carry across. Base managers keep control of their local news and guides, while pricing and terms changes pass through head office before they go live.
One platform, many harbours.
Networks with brokers spread across UK cities need a site that presents the whole fleet, introduces each broker and sends enquiries to the right person by region, language or speciality. We build broker profiles, routing rules and reporting that shows which brokers convert which enquiries. Brokers working from home in Leeds, Bristol or Glasgow get the same professional presence as those in a city centre office.
UK companies selling flotillas and bareboat weeks overseas need strong destination content, qualification guidance and terms that reflect ATOL and the Package Travel Regulations where flights are included. We build those pages around a central fleet and destination model. Seasonal guidance for each area helps customers pick suitable weeks, and enquiry forms capture the departure airport so your team can quote properly.
Destination depth with compliant terms.
Platforms listing boats from many independent owners need operator profiles, listing pages, search filters and content governance. On the website side we build discovery, listing pages and enquiry handling; payments and payouts belong to a separate commerce project if you need them. Operator profiles show coding status and qualifications, maintained by owners through a controlled form and checked by your team before publishing.
Presence and discovery first, commerce kept separate and planned on its own.
Working with Codeeo
Codeeo has no UK office. Our 80+ people work from Dubai, Riyadh and Karachi and serve UK clients remotely, through video calls, shared project boards and staging sites. We have delivered 200+ projects across the UAE and the US and hold a 4.7 rating from 23 Google reviews. National operators typically start with a fixed scope build for the framework and pilot base, then move to a retainer or a dedicated team for regional rollout and ongoing search work. Whichever route you pick, scope, priorities and dates are written down before work starts.
A defined build with a deadline
We agree what the product has to do, write it down with a price and a date, and build exactly that. Changes are priced before they are made, not discovered on the invoice.
A product that keeps evolving
Named engineers who work your hours, join your standups and stay on the codebase. You direct the backlog; we own the quality of what ships.
Something live that needs looking after
A monthly block of hours for improvements, fixes and the small requests that otherwise wait months. Unused hours carry for a quarter.
Technology
National platforms usually run on a headless CMS with role based publishing and a Next.js front end, hosted in UK or European regions behind a CDN. The stack is chosen so your own team or another agency can maintain it later. Documentation covers templates, roles and integrations.

A shared framework, central fleet data and a section for every base.
We design one system of templates and components, connect it to a single source of fleet data and create region or base sections that local teams edit. Around that sit national pages for qualifications, terms, destinations and the company itself, plus consent, analytics and CRM routing. Old websites for individual bases are merged in, with every useful address redirected so search positions are not lost. Head office gets a dashboard that shows enquiries by base and by source.
