How to Use the Boathouse Connect MCP in Windsurf
Manage your marina slips and equipment directly within Windsurf using Cascade to automate multi-step operations.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Boathouse Connect MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect Boathouse Connect to Windsurf and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Automate marina scheduling in Windsurf
Cascade reads your boat slip availability and chains `list_schedules` with `create_reservation` to book docks without extra prompts. It handles the logic for checking availability first. Your agent parses the output from `list_locations` to map out available slips. This allows you to plan complex maintenance windows or guest arrivals while staying inside your editor.
Sync member records with Boathouse Connect
Fetching member data becomes a background task when you use `get_user` or `list_users` through this MCP server. You get immediate access to contact info and status without leaving your workspace. Cascade updates your local context by pulling real-time records. Keeping your marina CRM synced with your code is now a hands-off process.
Track facility assets using Windsurf
Use `list_equipment` and `get_equipment` to pull hardware specs directly into your current session. You can cross-reference maintenance schedules with specific boat slip assets. This integration lets you verify connectivity via `check_boathouse_status` if you suspect data latency. It keeps your operational logs accurate and easily accessible.
