Everything in one place

Built for how a marina actually runs

One system for the whole marina — the dock, the office, and your customer's phone. Shaped to how you work.

Live dispatch board

Every launch, retrieval, and service request the moment it comes in.

Assign a driver, tap to move it along, and the customer is notified automatically.

Maps on your satellite image

Your real marina, drawn on the aerial photo.

Tap a spot to find any boat. Flag blocked or maintenance spaces in a color.

Dry-stack grids

See what's in every storage building at a glance.

Lay out racks by floor and bay. Open vs. occupied, clear as day.

Online rental booking

Customers book a boat and pay online, day or night.

Your durations, times, and prices. Deposits, insurance, and guest checkout — never a double-booking.

Digital waivers

Customers sign your waiver online or on a tablet at the dock.

Your text and rules, reusable yearly, with a searchable record of every signature.

Your own boat club

Run a membership club under your name and keep the dues.

Set the tiers, share the fleet, and collect dues automatically.

A customer app they'll love

One tap to call for their boat. Nothing to download.

Branded to you, with messaging, alerts, rentals, slips, and club.

Tailored to your marina

Make it yours, top to bottom.

Storage, services, your rental program, branding, even the app's shortcuts — all yours to set.

Satellite storage mapping

See your whole yard at a glance

Map your marina right on its own satellite photo: every slip, lot, and dry-stack rack. Anyone on staff can see what's open, what's taken, and exactly where a boat sits in seconds.

  • Trace slips, lots and dry-stack buildings on the real aerial of your property
  • Color-code blocked, maintenance or reserved spots with your own legend
  • Open a dry-stack building to arrange racks by floor and bay, and watch active jobs glow
  • Tap any spot to see what's in it, assign a boat, or take a reservation

Map what's under the roof

A satellite can't see inside your storage buildings, so build a top-down grid of every rack. Drag the spots into place once, and your whole team sees the layout exactly the way it really is.

  • Drag-and-drop every rack into a grid that mirrors the real building
  • Spots numbered your way: 101, 102 on the first floor, 201 on the second
  • Open vs. occupied at a glance, in your blocked / maintenance / reserved colors
  • Active launches and services glow on the exact rack, so crew know right where to go
The customer app

An app your members actually want to use

This is exactly what your customers see, branded to your marina and hosted online. Scroll through it.

  • Request a launch or service in one tap, no phone calls
  • Watch their boat go rack to water in real time
  • Message the dock and get instant status updates
  • Book rentals and club trips from their phone
  • Reserve slips and manage their account

One price. Everything included.

No tiers, no per-seat fees, no add-ons to price out. The entire platform (dock, office, and your customers' phones) for one flat monthly price.

Limited-time launch pricing
$149/ month

Everything Dockhand does, bundled, and still cheaper than your current provider on day one.

  • Free setup: we migrate your roster and map your yard for you (limited time).
  • Your data is yours: export everything whenever you want.
  • Unlimited staff and member accounts, never priced by headcount.

Goes live in a day · runs alongside your current software

Everything included
  • Live launch & service dispatch, built for the dock
  • Customizable rack maps on your satellite image
  • Dry-stack grid configuration & live occupancy
  • Members, boats & storage: racks, lots & slips
  • A beautiful customer app, branded to your marina
  • Online rentals: customers book & pay 24/7
  • Your own boat club with recurring dues
  • Two-way “Message the Dock” + push & email alerts
  • Turnaround KPIs, full history & one-click roster import

Payments are your call. Let Dockhand collect rentals and dues through your own Stripe account (a 3% service fee, so we only earn when your fleet does), or switch online payments off and collect at the marina. Everything works the same either way.

Questions marina owners ask

How does this make me money?

Two ways, both high margin. You can launch an online boat rental program and start your own members club instead of franchising it away, keeping the recurring dues. Both add revenue from boats you already own, without adding staff. Dockhand hosts the customer interfaces and you manage everything from one console.

How much does it cost?

A flat $149 a month with everything included: live dispatch, satellite rack maps, the dry-stack grid, online rentals, your own boat club, and the customer app. Unlimited staff and members, no tiers or add-ons. For a limited time setup is free — we migrate your roster and map your yard for you.

Is there support if I get stuck?

Yes. Real, US-based support from the Dockhand team, not an outsourced call center. Reach us right inside the app from the Support button on any page, and we usually reply by email the same day.

Do I have to switch everything at once?

No. Run Dockhand alongside your current software and switch customers over at your own pace. Your data exports to a spreadsheet anytime, so there is no lock-in and you can always change course. You can start with a small pilot and expand when you're ready.

How long does it take to get started?

Usually the same day. Send us whatever member list you already have, even a spreadsheet, and we'll get you set up. There's nothing to install.

Can you import my current member list?

Yes. Import any CSV from a spreadsheet or your current system. You map your columns once, preview the changes, and import. Boats, storage spots and vacant slips come in too, and members without an email on file still import so your roster and storage map are complete from day one.

Do my members need to download anything?

No. Dockhand runs in any web browser on a phone or computer, so members can start right away. On a phone they can also add it to their home screen and it opens like an app, with nothing to download from an app store.

How do my members get updates?

By email and push notification. The moment their boat is ready or a request changes, members get an alert (like "your boat is in the water and ready"). New requests reach the manager or assigned staff by email and push too, and you choose which events notify your team. No more phone tag at the dock.

Can members and my dock crew message each other?

Yes. Every launch and service request has a built-in "Message the Dock" thread, so members and your crew chat in real time about that specific boat. Staff see a flashing alert on the dispatch board until they read and reply.

Can I track turnaround times and how my team is doing?

Yes. A History tab keeps every completed and cancelled job, and surfaces management KPIs like average response time, time from request to in the water, and service start to finish. It's an audit trail and a performance dashboard in one.

Is my marina's data safe and backed up?

Yes. Your data is private to your marina, encrypted in transit and at rest, and automatically backed up on a regular schedule (at least weekly). No other marina can ever see it, and you can export everything to a spreadsheet whenever you want, so you always have your own copy. It's your data.

Can it work the way my marina already runs?

Yes. We switch features on or off and shape the platform around how you operate, including any membership or club program you already run. We adapt to you, not the other way around.

Do I have to process payments through Dockhand?

No, it's entirely your call. Turn online payments on and Dockhand collects rental deposits and club dues automatically through your own connected Stripe account (we add a 3% service fee, so we only earn when your fleet does). Prefer to have customers pay at the marina? Switch online payments off and everything still works the same: members book and reserve online, and you collect however you like.

What can my members actually do?

Request a launch or service, book a rental boat by the hour, reserve a slip, join and book your boat club, and watch their boat move from the rack to the water in real time, all from a web app branded to your marina.

Can I take walk-in and call-in reservations?

Yes. Staff can add a reservation for anyone (members, walk-ins, or call-ins) right from the console, with the same live availability your customers see. Walk-ins are saved as prospects too, so you can follow up and convert them to members and storage later.
