Watercraft share-ride system, a watercraft share-ride method, and a computer for a watercraft

A computer for a watercraft used to invite a user to share a ride on an owner's watercraft, the computer comprising:

• an information receiver to acquire watercraft information of an owner and first share-ride condition information of the owner from an owner terminal and second share-ride condition information of the user from a user terminal, the watercraft information including watercraft-body information, engine information, and equipment information;
• an information provider to provide the watercraft information, the first share-ride condition information, and the second share-ride condition information to the owner terminal and the user terminal;
• and
• processor circuitry to process the watercraft information, the first share-ride condition information, and the second share-ride condition information acquired by the information receiver, the processor circuitry being configured or programmed to:
• provide the watercraft information to the user terminal when the first share-ride condition information acquired from the owner terminal by the information receiver and the second share-ride condition information acquired from the user terminal by the information receiver match;
• and
• acquire share-ride request information that is used as data for the user terminal to request a user's share-ride to the owner when the watercraft information is selected by the user terminal.

A watercraft share-ride method performed by a computer to invite a user to share a ride on an owner's watercraft, the method comprising:
