Marina location, span and aerial or brochure plan
Confirm the real latitude, longitude and metre span in Studio, or upload an existing harbour diagram to frame your pontoons and quays.
Getting started / For marina owners
Bring your marina online at your own pace.
Save a private draft first. Build the berth inventory, add the information visiting crews need and finish payment setup before publishing.

What to have beside you.
An aerial image or existing plan is a useful starting point. Bring your berth codes, owner-verified vessel limits, nightly rates and the name of the business operating the marina.
You will also need public contact details, photos, office and arrival information, local check-in times, marina rules and cancellation arrangements. In Settings, these become the practical information behind your public listing.
The setup sequence
Prepare privately.
Publish deliberately.
- 01
Save the starting point
Add the marina name and real map location, then save a draft. You can do this before you have completed photos, the description or booking inventory. The draft stays out of public search.
- 02
Make the map useful
Open Studio, confirm the frame and arrange the berth objects. Review detection suggestions, align the icons and add the dimensions and prices your team can stand behind.
How Marina Studio works - 03
Complete the operating details
Use Settings for the business identity, public contacts, arrival instructions and policies. Set the marina currency, rates and seasons. Check that the listing describes the marina's actual facilities and restrictions.
- 04
Configure payments and review
Complete the connected payment account requirements, inspect the public presentation and resolve the publication checks. Publish once the marina details and approved inventory are ready for guests.
Publication readiness
Four records that complete a marina profile.
Before a marina goes live in the public directory, Berth Manager checks that the map geometry, berth limits, arrival briefing and payment configuration are ready for visiting skippers.
Berth codes, maximum LOA, beam and safe draft
Record owner-verified length, beam and draft capacities alongside pontoon amenities and base nightly rates for every bookable space.
Office hours, VHF channel and arrival rules
Provide your marina time zone, VHF working channel, check-in and check-out windows, approach notes and cancellation policy.
Legal issuer details and payment onboarding
Add your registered company name, tax or VAT identifier and invoice branding, and complete Stripe Connect verification before taking paid bookings.
Listing & booking payments
Know the terms before you publish.
How are booking payments handled?
The online payment workflow uses Stripe Connect when it is configured and the marina has completed onboarding. Platform and payment-provider charges apply to the booking flow. Confirm the current fee arrangements before making the listing bookable.
When will money reach the marina's bank?
A successful checkout, confirmed booking and bank payout are different events. Settlement and payout timing depend on the connected payment account and the provider's arrangements; the platform does not promise an immediate bank transfer.
What if our marina needs a wider system?
Describe any annual leases, utility metering, point of sale or accounting integrations you require. The current feature guide focuses on mapped inventory, nightly reservations and booking invoices. Contact support before assuming a separate workflow is included.
Can we save a marina draft and finish mapping later?
Yes. Once you enter the marina name and map coordinates, your draft is saved privately. You can return to Studio and Settings across multiple sessions without exposing incomplete berths or rates in the public directory.
Can we update berth statuses, prices or arrival notes after publishing?
Yes. Published marinas can update berth availability, maintenance holds, seasonal rates and arrival instructions at any time from the dashboard. Existing bookings keep their stored quote while new searches use your updated settings.
Start with the layout you already have.
