Boat Club & Memberships

Boat Club Software That Runs Memberships and Dues on Autopilot

BluMarina gives boat clubs one system to define plans, enroll members, meter usage credits, and bill recurring dues. Mid-cycle upgrades prorate automatically, families share a single membership, and dues invoicing follows the rules you set — so your club runs itself between outings.

Managing a Boat Club with Spreadsheets Doesn’t Scale

Membership tiers, dues, and included credits live in spreadsheets that are easy to get wrong and hard to keep current.
Usage limits — how often a member can book, and when — are enforced by memory, leading to disputes and overuse.
Mid-cycle upgrades and downgrades require manual proration math that nobody wants to do.
Recurring dues are invoiced by hand each period, and it is hard to see who has paid and who is past due.
Families want to share one membership, but there is no clean way to give each person the right level of access.

Plans, Members, Credits, and Dues in One System

BluMarina replaces the membership spreadsheet with a structured club platform. You define plans with their own dues, credits, and booking rules; members are enrolled and tracked with clear statuses; plan changes prorate automatically; and dues invoicing runs on the grace-period and auto-pay policy you configure.

Membership Plans

Build plans on monthly, quarterly, annual, or seasonal billing, each with its own dues, initiation fee, and included usage credits.

Booking Caps & Access Rules

Set per-plan limits on monthly and concurrent reservations and on weekday and weekend trips, and restrict plans to weekday-only or weekend-only access.

Member Enrollment & Status

Enroll members and manage active, suspended, cancelled, and pending statuses, and issue usage credits with a reason code when needed.

Automatic Proration

When a member changes plans mid-cycle, BluMarina automatically prorates the dues difference for the rest of the current billing cycle.

Family & Crew Sub-Accounts

Add sub-accounts to a membership for family or crew, each with its own access level — view only, can book, or can manage.

Dues Invoicing & Policy

Generate and track dues invoices through open, paid, and void states, apply credits, and set a grace period and require-auto-pay policy.

Why Choose BluMarina

Proration Without the Math

Upgrades and downgrades are handled for you — BluMarina prorates the dues difference automatically, so plan changes never turn into a spreadsheet exercise.

Real Usage Controls

Per-plan booking caps and weekday/weekend access rules are enforced by the system, ending disputes about who can book what and when.

One Membership, One Family

Sub-accounts let a household or crew share a single membership while giving each person exactly the access they should have.

Connected to Payments and Records

Dues and credits live in the same platform as your customer records and embedded ValPay payments, so billing a member is part of one connected system.
