Inland towing compliance software - Sub M first, cyber only if Subpart F applies

Two jobs, one workspace. Subchapter M TSMS is job one. USCG cybersecurity (33 CFR 101 Subpart F) is job two, only if Subpart F actually applies. Each module $500 per vessel per month. Dry inland on Sub M plus AWO RCP is usually out of cyber. Coastal and harbor are usually in. Pick and choose what you need.

Not a TPO. Not a class society. Not a SOC. Modules are pick-and-choose.

The modules

Pick and choose what you need

Each module is priced separately. You can run Sub M alone. You can run USCG cyber alone. You can run both. Shoreside ISO 27001 is a third option, $500 per month organization-wide, not day one for most inland shops.

Subchapter M TSMS

Run your TSMS here. Plain-English controls, hashed write-once evidence, one-click inspection packet. We do not write it, certify it, or file it. You run the system. We keep the record defensible.

$500/mo

Who owes what

Subchapter M is not the same as USCG cybersecurity

Subchapter M is Subchapter M. USCG cybersecurity (33 CFR 101 Subpart F) is a separate MTSA-scoped obligation. They are not the same. Subpart F is 33 CFR 101.605: if you already owe a 104, 105, or 106 plan, you now owe a Cybersecurity Plan. If you do not, you do not.

Towing trigger is 33 CFR 104.105(a)(11): greater than 8 meters towing a Part 104 tank or CDC barge, with fleeting, lock, and assist exceptions. Dry inland on Sub M plus AWO RCP is usually out. Coastal and harbor towing with tank or CDC barges are usually in.

Dry inland (usually out of cyber)

  • ✓ Sub M TSMS applies
  • ✗ USCG cyber usually does not (Subpart F out)
  • ✓ One module: $500/vessel/mo

Coastal / harbor (usually in)

  • ✓ Sub M TSMS applies
  • ✓ USCG cyber usually applies (Subpart F in)
  • ✓ Two modules: $500/vessel/mo each

Read 33 CFR 101.605 and 33 CFR 104.105(a)(11) for the full applicability test. If unsure, ask your MSC or COTP/OCMI.

How it works

You do the work. We keep the record defensible.

VesselMark breaks down Sub M and Subpart F obligations into plain-English controls. You see what is outstanding, close the gap, and attach evidence. Documents are content-hashed and held in write-once storage, so your evidence trail stands up to scrutiny. When inspection or filing time comes, export a one-click packet: your posture and evidence index, defensible and point-in-time.

Plain-English controls

See what is outstanding without a cybersecurity degree. Every control has a plain-language title and guidance.

Write-once evidence

Documents are content-hashed and held in write-once storage. Your evidence trail is tamper-evident.

One-click inspection packet

Export your posture and evidence index for a USCG or class review. A defensible point-in-time snapshot.

Renewal reminders

Drills, log refreshes, annual reviews. We schedule them, track what is due, and email before anything slips.

Unlimited users

No per-user tax. Add every captain, port engineer, and office admin who touches the system.

Sits beside existing ops

Not a replacement for Helm CONNECT, TBS, Mobile Ops, or ABS NS. Compliance-first, operations-adjacent.

What this is not

We are not your TPO. We do not replace your TSMS or ops software.

VesselMark is compliance management software. We are not a Third-Party Organization, not a class society, not a Statement of Compliance issuer, not a CySO, not a filing service. You run your TSMS and cybersecurity program here. We do not write them, certify them, or file them. We give you a workspace where the controls stay current and the evidence trail is defensible.
