BluMarina
Transient Dockage & Reservations

Marina Reservation Software Built for Transient Dockage

BluMarina lets marinas book transient and guest dockage the way boaters expect: search real slip availability by dates and boat size, take a deposit, and manage every stay from confirmation through check-out. A live dashboard flags overstays before they cost you a slip.

Handling Transient Reservations by Phone and Paper Loses You Slips

Guest reservations are taken over the phone and written on paper, so nobody has a reliable picture of what is booked for the weekend.
Matching a boat to an open slip that actually fits — by length, beam, and draft — means walking the docks or guessing.
Deposits are collected inconsistently, and there is no clean record of what was charged or refunded on a cancellation.
Overstays go unnoticed until a reserved boat arrives to find its slip still occupied.
Reservation data lives apart from the rest of the marina, so guest bookings never connect to billing or customer records.

A Real Reservation Engine for Guest and Transient Slips

BluMarina turns transient dockage into a proper booking system. Staff search live availability by stay dates and boat dimensions, book a deposit-backed reservation against a specific slip, and move each stay through check-in and check-out — while a dashboard surfaces arrivals, departures, and overstays in real time.

Availability Search by Boat Size

Search open slips by stay dates and by length, beam, and draft, then filter by slip type and amenities so every booking fits the boat.

Deposit-Backed Bookings

Reserve a specific slip with a deposit, collected through the same embedded ValPay processing used across BluMarina.

Check-In and Check-Out

Move each reservation through its full lifecycle — confirm, check in, and check out — so the front desk always knows who is arriving and who has left.

Overstay Dashboard

A live dashboard shows today’s arrivals, departures, and checked-in counts, with a dedicated overstay panel and one-click check-out.

Cancellations with Refund Tracking

Cancel a reservation and record whether the deposit is refunded or forfeited, keeping your books accurate.

List and Calendar Views

See reservations as a filterable list or on a calendar, so staff can plan the dock face however they work best.

Why Choose BluMarina

Right Boat, Right Slip

Availability search matches stays to slips by length, beam, and draft plus amenities, so you never book a boat into a slip that does not fit.

Overstays You Catch Early

The overstay panel surfaces boats past their departure date before a reserved arrival finds its slip occupied.

Deposits and Refunds on the Record

Every reservation is deposit-backed, and cancellations track refunds versus forfeits, so your revenue reflects reality.

Connected to Your Whole Marina

Reservations share the same slips, customer records, and ValPay payments as the rest of BluMarina — and pair with the visual marina map for a picture of the entire dock face.
