Running a Boatyard on Paper and Spreadsheets Is Holding You Back

Haul-out and launch schedules tracked on whiteboards or shared calendars create bottlenecks and miscommunication between yard staff, crane operators, and customers.
Work orders scribbled on clipboards get lost, duplicated, or forgotten — leading to missed revenue, unhappy customers, and technicians standing idle waiting for direction.
Parts and materials are ordered reactively because there's no inventory system tied to active work orders, causing delays that extend job completion times.
Estimating and invoicing happen in separate systems (or on paper), making it nearly impossible to track job profitability or ensure every billable hour is captured.
Customers call repeatedly for status updates because they have no visibility into where their vessel stands in the service queue.
Scheduling technicians across multiple concurrent jobs relies on tribal knowledge, resulting in uneven workloads, overtime costs, and missed deadlines.

A Complete Digital Platform for Modern Boatyards

BluMarina transforms boatyard operations by connecting every step — from the initial estimate to the final invoice — in one cloud-based system. Your service writers, technicians, parts department, and front office all work from the same real-time data, eliminating miscommunication and unlocking the efficiency your yard needs to grow.

Work Order Lifecycle Management

Create detailed work orders with labor, parts, and subcontractor line items. Track each job through customizable status stages from estimate approval to completion, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.

AI-Powered Technician Scheduling

Automatically optimize technician assignments based on skill sets, availability, and job priority. BluMarina's AI scheduling engine balances workloads across your team and reduces idle time between tasks.

Estimates & Approvals

Build professional estimates with pre-configured labor rates and parts pricing. Send estimates to customers for electronic approval, then convert approved estimates to active work orders with a single click.

Parts & Inventory Tracking

Maintain a parts catalog with real-time stock levels. Automatically deduct inventory when parts are added to work orders, set reorder alerts, and track costs to maintain accurate job profitability.

Integrated Billing & Payment Collection

Generate invoices directly from completed work orders with accurate labor and parts totals. Accept credit card, debit, and ACH payments through ValPay and Stripe, and send customers secure payment links.

Customer Portal & Communication

Give boat owners a self-service portal to view work order status, approve estimates, review invoices, and make payments online. Reduce inbound phone calls and keep customers informed automatically via SMS and email.

Why Choose BluMarina

Designed for Marine Service, Not Adapted from Auto Repair

End-to-End Job Profitability Tracking

Track every dollar of labor, parts, and subcontractor cost against each work order. Know your actual margins in real time, identify unprofitable job types, and make data-driven pricing decisions.

Paperless from Estimate to Invoice

Estimates, approvals, work orders, time entries, parts usage, and invoices all flow through one digital system. No more re-keying data between applications or chasing paper through the yard.

Cloud Access for Yard and Office

Technicians update job status from a tablet in the yard. Service writers manage the queue from the office. Owners review dashboards from anywhere. Everyone works from the same live data with no syncing required.
