Blue Wave Charters & Tours — Give It a Glow
For this challenge, I chose Blue Wave Charters & Tours, a real private boat charter company based in Jolly Harbour, Antigua.
They already offer a premium experience: private trips aboard an Axopar 37, coastal tours, snorkeling stops, onboard dining, and excursions to Barbuda.
But their existing website does not fully reflect the quality of the service, and the booking process still depends heavily on email, phone calls, and WhatsApp messages.
I wanted to turn that into something easier for both the guest and the business owner.
- What I built
I created a live, mobile-responsive charter website and booking app in Base44.
- The new experience lets visitors:
Explore four charter options Compare routes and itineraries View animated trip paths Explore the Axopar 37 Choose dining and drink preferences Select a preferred date Add group size, occasion, activities, and special requests Complete a guided multi-step charter request Ask questions through an AI assistant
The goal was to make the experience feel like a premium digital concierge, not a standard contact form.
Instead of browsing through long sections and then sending a vague message, guests can now plan the full shape of their day before submitting an inquiry.
- The automation:
The main automation starts when a guest submits a charter request. The system automatically: Saves the request in a private Charter Desk dashboard Generates a unique reference number Creates an AI quick-glance summary for the owner Produces a suggested reply for email or WhatsApp Sends the guest a branded confirmation email Sends the owner a structured notification Organizes the inquiry by status
The owner receives the guest’s preferred charter, date, group size, dining choices, activities, occasion, and contact details in one place.
That reduces the usual back-and-forth and makes each inquiry much easier to review and respond to.
- Why this matters:
This is more than a visual redesign. The new product helps Blue Wave: Present the business at the level of the experience they sell Capture more complete and qualified inquiries Respond faster Keep leads organized Reduce repetitive customer questions Move guests from interest to booking request more easily
For me, the challenge was to build something that looked strong enough for a luxury charter company while also solving a real operational problem behind the scenes.
