Welcome to Zeil
What Zeil is, who it's for, and how to find your way around this help center.
Zeil is the platform sailing schools and yacht clubs use to run day-to-day life on the water. Members reserve boats, assemble crews, keep their certifications current, read club announcements, and receive an AI-written Sail Brief for each outing. Administrators manage the fleet, decide who is cleared to skipper, open the calendar, and keep everyone informed.
Each club is its own space, reached at its own web address —
yourclub.zeilapp.com. You sign in once and can belong to as many clubs as you
like.

If you've just been invited to a club — or you're about to be — start with Getting started. It covers signing in, joining a club, and setting up your profile. From there, the Member guide walks through everything you'll do day to day.
Running a club? Head to the Admin guide for fleet setup, certifications, availability, and member management.
A note on the Sail Brief
Zeil generates a short, AI-written sailing advisory for upcoming reservations. It's a helpful summary of conditions and considerations — not a substitute for the skipper's own judgement, an official forecast, or local knowledge. Always make your own go/no-go call.
