Know which hull repair leads deserve inspection time
The intake captures damage type, hull material, and whether the boat is taking on water, plus photos of the damage, so you can tell a slow osmosis job from an active flooding emergency before you commit yard time.
The exact intake your hull repair leads complete
This is the real 5-question guided intake for Hull Repair — the same flow your customers finish before you ever pick up the phone.
What a qualified hull repair lead should tell you
Assessment and structural repair of a boat's hull, covering cracks, holes, osmosis, blistering, corrosion, or gelcoat damage, and requiring the intake to establish material, damage type, and whether the vessel is actively taking on water.
- Hull Damage Experiencing
- Hull Material
- Boat Taking On Water
- Boat Located
- Owner Or Authorized Approve
The questions your team needs answered
Every hull repair intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| What type of hull damage are you experiencing? | Damage type carries the widest weight spread in the catalog, letting you rank structural cracks and osmosis above surface gelcoat scratches at a glance. |
| What is the hull material? | Segments the lead so you can route, price, and prioritize it correctly. |
| Is the boat currently taking on water? | This is the single highest-urgency signal in the catalog, since a boat taking on water needs a response timeline that a cosmetic repair does not. |
| Where is the boat currently located? | A boat still in the water combined with active water intake identifies the exact urgent scenario your team needs to see before anything else. |
| Are you the owner or authorized to approve repairs on this boat? | Confirming authorization to approve repairs prevents your yard from scheduling time against a boat the caller doesn't actually control. |

Built for hull repair workflows
| Cliont capability | Hull Repair application |
|---|---|
| Conditional urgency flagging | When a lead answers yes to currently taking on water while the boat is in the water, Cliont marks it for immediate follow-up instead of routing it into standard scheduling. |
| Photo and document capture | Owners upload images of the crack, blister, or corrosion alongside their hull material and damage-type answers, so your team can pre-assess severity before the inspection. |
| Authorization gating | The ownership/authorization question is weighted lower when the caller can't approve repairs, helping you avoid quoting or scheduling yard time for a boat the caller doesn't control. |
| Weighted lead scoring | Damage type answers like crack, osmosis, or corrosion carry distinct weights, so structural hull failures naturally outscore cosmetic gelcoat requests without manual triage. |
Common hull repair lead scenarios
Active water intake, boat afloat
The owner reports the boat is currently taking on water while still in the water, the highest-urgency combination in the catalog, so this lead routes straight to CRM with priority flagging instead of sitting in a queue.
Slow osmosis job on a trailer
Blistering or osmosis on a hauled-out, trailered boat carries value weight but no urgency, letting you schedule it around active leaks rather than dropping other work for it.
Caller isn't the boat owner
Someone inquires on behalf of a boat but isn't authorized to approve repairs, a lower-scoring answer that flags the lead for an ownership check before yard time gets committed.
Unsure of damage or material
An owner selects 'not sure' for both damage type and hull material, so the lead still scores reasonably but is marked for a visual inspection rather than a same-day repair quote.
Cosmetic gelcoat scratches only
Surface gelcoat damage with no water intake scores lowest among the value options, helping you separate cosmetic requests from structural repair jobs that need faster attention.

Hull Repair lead-intake FAQs
How does the intake handle a boat that's actively taking on water?
The 'currently taking on water' question carries the highest urgency weight in the catalog, and when combined with an 'in the water' location it flags the lead so you can respond before scheduling yard time for a lower-priority job.
Does the form ask about hull material, and does it matter for fiberglass, aluminum, or wood boats?
Yes, the intake captures hull material separately from damage type, so a crack on an aluminum hull and osmosis on a fiberglass hull come through with the material already documented for your team.
What happens if the person filling out the intake isn't the boat's owner?
The authorization question is scored lower when the answer is no, so those leads still come through but are marked for an ownership check before you commit shop time.
Can the intake tell me if the boat is in the water, on a trailer, or in a storage yard?
Yes, boat location is a required field, and an in-water boat combined with active water intake is the specific combination the intake flags as urgent.
How does the intake score a lead when the owner selects 'not sure' for damage type?
A 'not sure' answer still carries meaningful weight, since it typically means the owner knows something is wrong but needs your inspection to identify it, rather than indicating a low-value or cosmetic request.
Can I route hull repair leads separately from engine or electrical leads I also get?
Yes, hull repair intakes are their own qualification path, so a hull crack lead doesn't get mixed into your Boat Engine Repair or Boat Electrical Repair queues.
