Mobile fuel management<br />
Within days of launching a redesign of its websites<br />
www.scribblesoftware.com and www.marinaoffice.net,<br />
Scribble Software has launched marinaGO POS v2, its<br />
newest mobile point-of-sale app with integrated fuel<br />
management. Built for the iOS and Android platforms, the<br />
marinaGO point-of-sale is claimed to be the first native<br />
mobile app in the industry to offer real-time integrated fuel<br />
management and is available for the iPhone, iPad, iPod<br />
and Android devices.<br />
Described as the ‘mobile<br />
dockhand’, marinaGO POS<br />
frees marina operators<br />
from traditional countertop<br />
point-of-sale stations and<br />
fuel consoles by offering<br />
completely wireless<br />
integrated fuel dispenser<br />
control and sales register<br />
capabilities in the palm of<br />
the hand while out on the<br />
fuel dock. The app users will<br />
be able to easily control fuel<br />
dispensers, complete fuel<br />
transactions and tender any<br />
other type of sale with the<br />
use of merchant-supported<br />
payment methods including<br />
credit cards. A unique feature<br />
for the marina industry<br />
includes the ability to include<br />
any sale, including fuel<br />
transactions, on internal<br />
ticket charges.<br />
“The marinaGO POS<br />
fuel management app will<br />
revolutionise the marina<br />
industry,” says Vance Young,<br />
director of technology for<br />
Scribble Software. “<strong>Marina</strong><br />
staff are now able to devote<br />
their attention to providing<br />
better service at the fuel<br />
dock by offering start to<br />
finish fuelling activity without<br />
leaving the customer’s side.”<br />
The marinaGO POS app<br />
features a mobile sales<br />
register and integrated fuel<br />
management. It supports<br />
most fuel dispenser brands<br />
and types (gasoline/petrol,<br />
diesel, blended and other<br />
fuel types) and completes<br />
sales with cash, cheque and<br />
credit card payments. The<br />
product also supports mobile<br />
magnetic card readers (MSR)<br />
and synchronises sales to<br />
back office accounting.<br />
The app can be<br />
downloaded in the iOS<br />
iTunes app store or the<br />
Google Play app store.<br />

Taking control of ‘daily inspections’<br />
High tech learning and simulation training company Mymic Training Technologies has released a new smartphone<br />
app designed to help marinas and boatyards with equipment and facility inspections.<br />
Electronic Marine<br />
Equipment Checklist or<br />
eMEC is available on<br />
both Google Play and<br />
iTunes. Designed to help<br />
marinas complete OSHA<br />
required daily inspections<br />
for forklifts and travel lifts,<br />
eMEC allows the user to<br />
scan a barcode, complete<br />
a machine-specific safety<br />
check and upload the<br />
record to cloud storage for<br />
retrieval at a later date as<br />
needed.<br />
Mymic director of marina<br />
safety programmes, Robert<br />
Smith, explained: “Our<br />
goal is to help marinas and<br />
boatyards enhance safety<br />
programmes and OSHA<br />
compliance by leveraging<br />
technology. eMEC is a perfect<br />
tool to quickly and easily<br />
conduct the required OSHA<br />
daily inspection and create<br />
the records needed.”<br />
Rick Chapman, general<br />
manager at The Port of<br />
Sunnyside Club in Stillwater,<br />
Minnesota, one of the first<br />
to adopt the app, said it has<br />
made life much easier. “In<br />
the past I struggled with<br />
my travel lift and forklift<br />
operators to get them to fill<br />
out and maintain our daily,<br />
OSHA required, inspection<br />
log. Once I had the app<br />
installed on their smart<br />
phones, they took ownership<br />
of the daily inspections<br />
immediately and I can check<br />
to make sure the inspections<br />
have been submitted without<br />
ever leaving my desk,” he<br />
noted.<br />
The company has plans<br />
to continue expanding<br />
its marina safety training<br />
programme in the near<br />
future, adding new on-site<br />
instructor training such as<br />
the OSHA 10 course and<br />
CPR training.<br />
