About the template
What this boat repair invoice template covers and why owners pay on collection
Marine invoices stall when slip, parts, and labour are bundled. The template below shows slip days, marine-rated parts by brand, labour hours, antifoul application, sacrificial anode count, and re-launch.
Marine warranty (12-month workmanship, manufacturer warranty per part) is stated explicitly. Vessel registration always on the invoice for the owner's records.
What to include
Every boat repair invoice should have these lines

Avoid these
Common mistakes on boat repair invoices
The patterns that quietly lose jobs, get queried at payment time, or leave money on the table.
Mistake: Parts not marine-rated
Better: Saltwater destroys non-marine parts. State marine-rated parts on every line for warranty trail.
Mistake: Antifoul brand not named
Better: Hempel, International, Jotun differ in service life. Name the brand and area applied.
Mistake: Anode count silent
Better: Sacrificial zincs replaced is critical for corrosion protection. State count on invoice.
Mistake: Slip days bundled into labour
Better: Slip is a daily fixed cost. Show as own line so owner can plan future hardstand time.
Mistake: Re-launch fee hidden
Better: Re-launching the boat is real labour. State the fee separately.
Mistake: No vessel registration on invoice
Better: Always state registration. Required for marina records and insurance claims.
