Run a poll

Ask the group a question and collect votes by text.

Sail ProUpdated

Polls let the group decide things like where to eat or which day to leave. Travelers vote by replying to a text, so nobody needs to sign in.

Step 1 of 2
Make an event a poll

Open an event in your itinerary, set its type to Poll, and add the options. Then send it to your travelers.

How travelers vote

  • For up to 9 plain options, the text lists them numbered and travelers reply with a number.
  • When options are places, or there are more than 9, the text leads with a link to vote on the web.
  • Sail confirms each vote by naming the option and the poll, so a mistaken reply is easy to spot.
  • If you change a poll after sending it, travelers are told it changed and shown the current options.
