Moving from DockMaster: keep the ledger, change the front of the store.
BoaterOS runs the website, leads, calls and texts, deals, inventory record and reports. Accounting stays where it is. Here is what moves and what stays.
A dealership and marina management system.
As of September 2026, DockMaster describes its software as boat dealership management software, with modules for CRM, lead management, inventory, sales, service, financial management, point of sale, eSignature workflows and marina management. It is offered as desktop, web and mobile products.
Dealers who run their books, service billing and marina operations in DockMaster have a full back office in one place. That is the part of a dealership BoaterOS does not try to replace.
A DockMaster alternative for the sales and marketing side.
Most dealers who look at BoaterOS keep DockMaster for accounting, parts and service billing. Your website, leads, deals, customers, calls and texts, inventory record and reports run on one record in BoaterOS. Accounting and service billing stay where they are.
BoaterOS does not sync with DockMaster today. Connecting to a dealer management system is not built today. Your current system keeps running until each department has moved over. BoaterOS is the boat dealer management system for the front of the store: website, leads, CRM, marketing, inventory, deals, brokerage and service requests on one record. Your accounting system stays where it is, with accounting integration on the roadmap.
