Built for the way marinas actually run

Slips live in a spreadsheet

When slip assignments, owners, and boats are scattered across tabs, every transfer and waitlist question is a hunt. Put slips, members, and vessels in one connected roster.

COIs expire silently

A member’s hull insurance lapses and you find out after a storm. Track every certificate of insurance with renewal dates and the document attached to the member and vessel.

Shared amenities, no system

Day docks, the pavilion, the boat ramp, the work slip — booked by text and sticky note. Give members a real amenity-booking calendar the board can see and approve.
Every feature, on every plan

Every SoShiny feature, tuned for marinas

Vessel & vehicle registry

Register each member’s boat and vehicle — make, length, registration, trailer, and slip — so the office and dockhands always know whose is whose.

Insurance & COI tracker

Log hull policies and liability certificates with renewal dates and the actual PDF attached, so nothing lapses without a flag.

Amenity booking

Members reserve day docks, the pavilion, or the work slip; the board approves and the reservation shows on the community calendar and lobby TV.

Who’s Away

Members traveling or hauling out for the season can flag dates, an emergency contact, and key location — encrypted and visible only to management.

Documents & leases

Slip leases, dockage agreements, rules, and registrations — versioned, access-controlled, and scoped per member or slip.

Free marina website

A public page with amenities, photos, events, area attractions, and a contact form — perfect for a marina that wants a real web presence without a designer.
In practice

How a real marina uses SoShiny

A 180-slip marina retires its spreadsheet and stands up SoShiny. The dockmaster imports the member roster, then registers each vessel with its slip, length, and registration so the office finally has one source of truth for who owns what and where it floats.

Every member’s hull insurance certificate goes into the COI tracker with a renewal date and the PDF attached. When a policy is about to lapse, it’s flagged before storm season — not discovered after a claim. Members reserve the work slip and the pavilion through amenity booking instead of texting the office.

Seasonal members flag their haul-out dates in Who’s Away with an emergency contact, and the marina’s public page shows prospective boaters the amenities and waitlist contact without anyone building a website. Slip leases live in Documents, scoped to each member.

FAQ

Marina questions, answered

Can SoShiny track slips and vessels, not just units?

Yes. SoShiny’s unit model maps cleanly to slips, and the vessel & vehicle registry records each member’s boat — make, length, registration, trailer, and slip assignment.

Does it track certificates of insurance?

Yes. The insurance and COI tracker logs hull and liability policies with renewal dates and the document attached to the member and vessel, so coverage never lapses unnoticed.

Can members book the work slip or pavilion?

Yes. Amenity booking lets members request shared spaces; the board approves, and the reservation appears on the community calendar and the lobby TV display.

Is SoShiny only for marinas in one state?

No. SoShiny works for marinas, yacht clubs, and boating communities anywhere. Features like statute references are optional and region-specific where they apply.
