How do I use my discounts codes?

The discounts available may be redeemed in differing ways dependent on the type of code they are. Some will be a written code that needs to be copy and pasted into the promotions box of the chosen website, usually during the checkout process. Other discounts can be redeemed by clicking on the URL link provided for that specific discount.

I want to change the news stories in my feed?

On the ‘News Articles’ page of MyBoat you can alter the type of news articles that you can see by changing the various drop down filters to return only specific news types, from select dates. If you are looking for a specific news article then you can also utilise the ‘keywords’ search field for a more focussed search.  

I want to turn my email alerts on / off?

You can alter your email alert settings in the ‘Personal Details’ section of MyBoat. Simply click on the ‘Email Options’ tab at the top of the page. Here you will be able to choose whether or not you receive email alerts, this can be changed at any time should you wish to revert your options at a later date.  

I’ve sold my boat can I delete my boat profile?

If you no longer own or simply don’t wish to display a boat in your list of vessels then the profile can be easily deleted from the list. All you need to do is find the boat profile you wish to remove, and click the delete boat icon on the right hand side of the profile.

How do I add a new boat to my list of vessels?

To add a new boat to your list all you need to do is complete a short information form, accessed by clicking on the ‘Add new boat’ button in the top right of the MyBoat frontpage. From there simply fill in the fields with the relevant information in relation to your boat and click ‘save’ at the bottom.

How can I upload and manage images of my boats?

Your gallery of images for each specific boat can be accessed by clicking the ‘View boat images’ link on the right hand side of each boat profile. To upload an image simply click ‘upload a vessel image’ and select your desired image from its relevant location. To delete an image from your gallery, click in the top right hand corner of the chosen image.
