Dry Stack & Rack Storage

Dry Stack Management Software That Keeps the Ramp Moving

BluMarina replaces the launch clipboard and radio chatter with a live dispatch board. Dock staff advance every launch and retrieval in a click, a configurable scheduler caps how many boats hit the water at once, and every move is logged — so nothing gets lost between the rack and the ramp.

Managing Dry Stack Launches by Radio and Whiteboard Slows Everyone Down

Launch requests come in by phone, text, and walk-up, and there is no single list showing what is queued, scheduled, or already on the water.
The ramp backs up on busy mornings because nothing limits how many launches are booked into the same window.
Dock staff and the front desk are out of sync — a boat gets splashed twice, or an owner waits while a request falls through the cracks.
There is no record of who moved which boat and when, so questions about a missed or late launch are impossible to answer.
Retrievals and launches are tracked the same way, making it hard to see what is coming off the water versus going on.

One Dispatch Board for Every Launch and Haul-Out

BluMarina gives dry stack operations a purpose-built dispatch board and launch scheduler. Requests flow through clear stages, capacity is controlled by the windows you define, and every status change is stamped with the staff member who made it — so the whole team works from the same picture.

Live Dispatch Board

Every request appears on a Kanban board with requested, scheduled, in-progress, and completed-today columns and live counts, so staff see the entire day at a glance.

Launch and Retrieval Requests

Each request is clearly a launch or a retrieval, so you always know what is going on the water and what is coming off it.

One-Click Status Changes

Schedule, start, complete, or cancel any request in a single click, with instant confirmation — no re-keying or separate logs to update.

Configurable Launch Windows

Set slot length, the maximum number of launches per slot, your open and close hours, and which weekdays are closed, so the ramp never gets overbooked.

Movement Audit Trail

A movement history records each status change and the staff member who made it, giving you a complete record of every boat that moved.

Role-Based Permissions

Control who can create and update dry stack requests with granular, role-based permissions that fit how your dock team is organized.

Why Choose BluMarina

Built for the Ramp, Not Bolted On

The dispatch board and launch-window scheduler are designed around how dry stack actually runs — queued requests, capacity limits, and quick status changes dock staff can make on the move.

Part of One Marina Platform

Dry stack lives alongside customer and vessel records, service, billing, and payments in BluMarina, so a launch request is tied to the same boat and owner your whole operation already uses.

Capacity You Actually Control

Instead of hoping the morning does not overload, you define exactly how many launches fit in each window and which days and hours are open.

A Full Record of Every Move

The movement history answers "who moved this boat, and when" without anyone reconstructing the day from memory.
