World’s first maritime blockchain tracking credentials, sea time and experience launched globally

Charter Rode delivers the first ever globally accessible sailing CV – a secure, transparent, efficient and tamper-proof maritime CV system enabled by blockchain technology.
Recreational and professional sailors log and track credentials, sea time and experience, and create a sailing CV. Banks, insurance companies, charter companies, identification agencies, captains and commercial vessel operators require this documentation to establish the seaworthiness of individuals.
Traditionally, the recording and sharing of maritime experience has been ineffective and unreliable. Until now, it has been impractical, if not impossible, for third parties to verify every logbook entry in a sailing CV.
Using blockchain, Charter Rode solves this problem with the first and only maritime CV system that provides proof of authenticity for each logbook entry.
Together with logbook entry verification standards, recreational and professional mariners can mathematically prove that the logbook and sailing resume are authentic and unaltered.
All data on this Seil-CV blockchain is public, so any individual, business or organization can view all logbook entries anonymously. This first ever public and open database allows individuals, developers, companies or organizations to build their own solutions using data from the Sailing Resume Blockchain.
“Today’s launch is notable because unlike many web3 and blockchain companies, we are not announcing a roadmap or ambitious goals. We are launching a complete ecosystem of tools and apps for the maritime industry to solve problems that have plagued seafarers for decades, ” said Jason Burns, founder and president of Charter Rode.
The global launch of the ecosystem includes:
- Public web3 immutable maritime resume database.
- Charter Rode Wallet manages users’ identity and privacy.
- App to log sea time, operating experience and earned maritime credentials.
- Refer to sail resume view and block explorer apps.
“We envision individuals, developers and companies building thousands of apps and services leveraging the Sailing Resume Blockchain as the primary data source and the Charter Rode Wallet to protect the privacy and identity of users on the network,” said Burns. “Developers can deliver immediate value by simply authenticating a user’s wallet. There is no need for a user to enter data as it is freely available on the blockchain – it’s a game changer for the industry.”
Sailing Resume Blockchain accepts all boating experiences. Powerboats, sailboats, 100 meter plus megayachts and commercial supertanker experience can all be logged on the system. Charter Rode can also be used by professional mariners working through their licenses and ratings.
