Software research for yacht finance teams
Sealogical review: accounting scope and cost
Sealogical now documents a dedicated accounting module alongside yacht management. Evaluate its finance workflow and separate module cost before deciding whether it can replace your existing accounting tools.
Evidence checked 10 September 2026. This is desk research from the linked vendor documentation, not hands-on product testing. Capabilities and prices are vendor statements; suitability is our interpretation. No numerical rating is assigned to this comparison. Read our affiliate disclosure.
What the accounting module covers
The vendor describes receipt-backed expenses, supplier invoice approvals, charter APA records, crew payroll, gratuities and budgets. It also documents period locks and approval thresholds. This supersedes our earlier description of Sealogical as offering only basic finance features without invoicing. Read the accounting documentation.
For a finance buyer, the useful question is how these records flow through to the accounts you actually need. Ask for a demonstration from an expense through approval to reporting, including a correction after period close.
Pricing: accounting costs extra
The vendor’s GBP pricing page lists £280 per vessel per month for the base plan, with Accounting & Payroll at an additional £120. That makes £400 per vessel per month for both, excluding VAT, at the prices checked on 24 September 2026. Pricing is per vessel rather than per user.
The same page says support, onboarding and updates are included, and offers a trial without a credit card or fixed time limit. Confirm trial module access and your currency before signing up. Check the current price and trial terms.
What remains to verify
- Bank reconciliation: ask to match a statement against recorded transactions, including fees and currency differences. We have not verified the supported bank connections.
- QuickBooks, Xero and other integrations: obtain the name and scope of any connector. The pages checked do not establish a native integration.
- Offline work: ask which finance actions remain available without a connection and how changes synchronise.
- Accounting outputs: have your accountant inspect a sample ledger, owner report and export. Confirm migration and access to records after cancellation.
Who should put it on a shortlist?
Our reading of the documentation is that Sealogical merits a demo when a yacht team wants finance alongside its operational records. A team seeking only standalone accounting should compare the combined subscription and workflow against dedicated finance options. We have not tested performance, ease of use or support, so the earlier numerical score is withdrawn from this review.
Compare Voly’s payment-linked approach and Latitude365’s offline approach before choosing. Their documentation describes different starting points; it does not establish a universal winner.
