Crew Portal

Getting in

Type the email address your timesheets come to. An 8-digit code arrives by email; type it in and you are in. No password, ever. The code works once and dies after 10 minutes — if it goes stale, just ask for a fresh one.

Nothing arriving? Check junk once, then tell the admin which address you use.

Finding your way

Five places along the bottom: Home (everything new since your last visit), Documents (the project and your timesheets), Where we were (the boat’s track, made for tax paperwork), News (news and rumours) and Crew (who is on board, and everyone).

Your circle, top right, is You: your details, photo, messages, timesheets, certificates, and sign out. A yellow dot means something is waiting.

Things worth trying

Add a photo. The crew list with faces is how people learn who is who. Drag your face into the circle; the original picture is never changed.

Put up a rumour. Heard something about the next job or the demob date? The crew votes sounds right or not true. Two a day each.

Vote diver of the day. One vote a day for somebody on board who made the day better. Writing why is optional and usually the best part. Wins turn into bronze, silver and gold stars.

Use the shopping list. Running out of coffee? Write it up, and whoever is coming out taps I will bring it.

Put in your birthday. Day and month only, no year. The crew sees it the day before and on the day; you never see your own.

Turn on your certificates. Your own list with expiry dates and a warning when one runs out. Off until you switch it on, and visible to you alone.

What the portal will never do

Show your contact details. Your email and phone go to nobody. If somebody wants your number they tap an envelope, you get asked, and you decide what to share, with that one person. You can take it back any time.

Show who you voted for on diver of the day. That never leaves the database, not even for the admin. Rumours are different, because the crew asked for it: your name is shown next to sounds right or not true, so everyone can see who backs what.

Leak what is sealed. Certificates, phone numbers and the DMT / Inspection marks are encrypted in the database; the key never leaves the server.

Make anything mandatory. Name, photo, phone, birthday, certificates — all optional. The portal works fine if you never fill in a thing, and your timesheets still come by email like always.

Something broken or missing? Tell the admin — half of what is here exists because somebody asked for it.

Diver of the day

Nice to have, so the crew knows who is who. Location data is stripped before it is saved.

Drag the photo until your face sits in the circle.

Timesheets for the whole crew

Send the one PDF that has everybody in it. It is not shared with anyone here: it waits to be split and put in each person’s folder.

Certificates from the crew matrix

Send the file that tools/import_certs.py makes. The portal seals every person’s list before it is stored, so the key never leaves here.

Seal what is still in the clear

Phone numbers, DMT and Inspection are sealed as soon as anybody saves their details. This does the same for everyone who has not saved since.

Optional

What the crew actually calls you. Shown next to your name on board.

Optional

Your job is what the crew sees on the board, so a change is checked before it goes up.

Optional
Optional

Only the day and month. The year is never asked for and never stored. The crew sees it the day before and on the day, so they can wish you well; you do not see your own.

Optional

Only you see this page. Leave anything blank — nothing here is required, and none of it replaces the contact details already held for you.

Text size

Only changes how this portal looks, on this phone. Nothing is sent anywhere.

These are your copies only. The original still arrives by email.

Write to the crew
Optional

Everyone who signs in sees it on their home page. “Edit” corrects a post, “Remove” takes it down.

Add to the project
Optional

Everyone who signs in can read this. Photos and PDFs are added to each part once it is here.

Anyone on board can post here. Nothing on this page is official until it is marked confirmed.

It goes up with your name on it. You can take your own down any time.

Ask —

“Could you share your contact details with me?”

That is the whole message, nothing to write. It stays in the portal, no email goes out, and they decide whether to share anything.

Anyone can be asked, and the message is always the same one line. Your email and phone are never shown unless you share them yourself, and you can stop sharing any time.

Crew change
Optional
not set

With a date set, the switches below say who is joining and who is going home. The board itself changes the day after.

Everyone in the crew database. Names, jobs and photos only. No contact details are shown here, ever. People fill in their own details, so some are still blank.

How this is kept

Your list is sealed in the database with AES-GCM, a 256-bit key that exists only inside the portal itself. Nobody carries it around.

Each record is tied to your own address, so it cannot be opened as anybody else’s. Your phone number, DMT and Inspection are kept the same way.

Anyone holding a copy of the database would see sealed text and nothing else: no certificate names, no dates.

Lightning risk
not set
not set

Both empty means there is no lightning risk. While it is on, the crew sees: no diving activities and no CTV transfers.

Waiting on weather
not set

Empty means the work is running.

Forecast

Everyone who signs in sees this, on the home screen. Times are ship's local time.

Write what you need brought out. Anyone joining the boat sees it and can say they will bring it.

Take it off once you have it, so nobody carries it twice.

Today
How it works

Anyone on board gets one vote a day, for somebody else on the boat. You can change your mind until midnight, ship's time. Writing why is optional, and it is usually the best part.

Everyone signed in sees how many votes each person got and what was written about them. Nobody ever sees who voted for whom here.

The award is for the diving team, so Topside, RA and the vessel’s own crew are not on the list to be voted for.

What you can earn

Win a day and a star appears next to your name on the crew list. Each level takes three times as many days as the one before.

Tap anyone with a star on the crew list to read everything the crew wrote about them.

Where the vessel was, day by day, from the daily position reports. Crew often need this for a tax return.

The track

Taken from the vessel’s own daily reports, exactly as written. Each day is written at midnight and sent the next morning, so the newest day here is always a day or two behind. Days with no report are shown as gaps, not filled in.

Names, roles and photos only. No contact details are shown here, ever.
