"Ribbe is an essential part of our rental operation."
"As a rental-first POS system, it makes it easy to book, process, and track rentals from start to finish. The system is intuitive, so seasonal staff can learn it quickly and use it correctly from day one. Ribbe also helps us maximize revenue with flexible pricing plans, add-ons, and late-return tracking, giving us more control over every rental."

Marina software, in depth
A marina is several businesses sharing one shoreline. The dock office handles transient arrivals and seasonal tenants, the fuel dock runs its own register, the ship's store sells ice and bait, and someone is renting boats off the end of B dock. Too often each of those runs on its own spreadsheet or register. Ribbe is marina management software that puts slips, fuel, retail, rentals, and billing in one connected platform, so the boater's whole relationship with your marina lives in one record.
With Ribbe as your marina reservation software, boaters can request slips and dock space online from your website, with live availability, through the Ribbe booking widget or a branded booking site. The same availability drives the dock office screen, so a slip assigned over the radio is not still showing as open online.
Transient, monthly, and seasonal stays. Sell short stays and longer contracts from the same slip inventory.
Slip and mooring reservations. Manage both from one calendar, with slip assignments your dock staff can see.
Boater check-in and radio calls. Check arriving boaters in and keep the day's arrivals organized at the dock office.
Confirmations and reminders. Email and SMS confirmations go out automatically, so boaters arrive knowing their slip.
Seasonal tenants are the base of most marinas, and they are also where paperwork piles up. Ribbe tracks slip assignments, seasonal contracts, renewals, and waitlists in one place. When a seasonal slip opens up, the waitlist is right there instead of in a binder. Recurring billing handles monthly and seasonal charges, and deposits are collected in the same system.
Billing is where marina management software earns its keep. Instead of re-keying charges from three systems into an invoice, Ribbe keeps reservations, services, and payments connected.
Recurring billing. Monthly and seasonal slip charges on a schedule, with card-on-file payments.
Utilities metering. Electric and water metering for slips that need it.
Boater services. Launches, pump-outs, storage, maintenance, and service requests, tracked and charged through the same system.
Deposits and secure payments. Online and in-person payments through Ribbe's integrated payments, including tap-to-pay devices.
The fuel dock and the store both run on the Ribbe point of sale. The fuel dock POS supports pump integration, pump tracking, and customer billing for fuel sales. The ship's store sells ice, bait, food, beverages, and merchandise, and staff can take payments on a tablet or phone out on the dock. End-of-day reports reconcile the drawer, tips, and card batches without a separate tally for each register.
Operators searching for a marina CRM usually want one thing: every boater's slips, fuel, purchases, and rentals in one record. In Ribbe, signed waivers, bookings, and payments attach to the customer profile, and you can send segmented email campaigns and SMS messages to past and current boaters. If you run boat rentals, they use the same platform, with digital waivers, security deposits, and fleet tracking. Real-time reports cover occupancy, revenue, and fuel sales.
Many marinas run slips in a spreadsheet, the store on a retail register, and rentals on a third app. That works until a boater asks for one statement, or until two people assign the same slip on a holiday weekend. A marina booking system that also runs the fuel dock and the store removes the double entry.
One availability picture. Online reservations, dock office bookings, and slip assignments draw from the same live inventory.
One register. Fuel, ice, bait, merchandise, rentals, and slip charges go through one point of sale.
One set of reports. Occupancy, revenue, and fuel sales come from the same data instead of three exports.
Runs on your hardware. Ribbe works on Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android, so the dock office PC and a tablet on the fuel dock both work.
If you are comparing marina management software options, start with the full feature list, then line it up against what your dock office does on a busy Saturday.
Marina software FAQ
Marina management software runs the daily business of a marina from one system: slip and mooring reservations, seasonal contracts and renewals, waitlists, fuel dock sales, ship's store retail, boater services, and billing. Ribbe combines all of these with online reservations, boat rentals, and payments, so the dock office, fuel dock, and store share the same customer and availability data.
Yes. Ribbe lets boaters reserve slips and dock space online with live availability, either through a booking widget on your website or a branded Ribbe booking site. Reservations land on the same calendar your dock office uses, and email and SMS confirmations go out automatically, so transient boaters arrive with a confirmed slip.
Yes. Ribbe manages seasonal, monthly, and transient contracts, along with slip assignments, renewals, and waitlists. Recurring billing covers monthly and seasonal charges, and deposits are collected in the same system. When a seasonal slip opens, the waitlist is right there, so you can offer the slip without digging through paper files.
Yes. The fuel dock POS covers fuel sales, pump tracking, and customer billing, and Ribbe supports electric and water metering. Launches, pump-outs, storage, maintenance, and service requests are handled as boater services. Payments can be taken online, at the counter, or on a mobile device, and they stay connected to the boater's reservations and purchases.
Ribbe is marina management software rather than a standalone CRM, but it keeps the boater record most marinas need. Bookings, signed waivers, payments, and purchases attach to the customer profile, and built-in email campaigns and SMS let you reach past and current boaters by segment. Real-time reports add occupancy, revenue, and fuel sales.
Yes. Boat rentals run on the same platform as slips and the fuel dock. You get online booking with live availability, digital waivers, security deposits, captain scheduling, and fleet tracking for fuel, maintenance, and damage. Rentals, slip charges, and store sales all run through the same point of sale.
Ribbe offers Starter, Pro, and Multi-Location plans, and the main difference is the number of locations, terminals, kiosks, and waivers you need. There are no required upfront software costs, and pricing is transaction-based with a monthly minimum that keeps the account active in the off-season. See the pricing page for current plans.
