Dry-Stack Storage: The Smarter Way to Store Your Boat on the Mississippi

Why More Boaters Are Choosing Dry-Stack Storage — and Why Grace Marine is the Perfect Place

When you're done chasing the bass bite or enjoying a long weekend on the water, the last thing you want to worry about is what happens to your boat when it's not in use. That’s where Dry-Stack Storage comes in — a modern, convenient, and secure way to store your vessel out of the water, off the trailer, and out of harm’s way.

At Grace Marine, located in LeClaire, Iowa, right on the mighty Mississippi River, dry-stack storage isn't just a smart solution — it’s the ideal one. Our Captain’s Quarters DryStack facility is purpose-built for convenience, security, and longevity of your watercraft. Whether you’re a local boat owner or traveling through the Quad Cities region, dry-stacking your boat with Grace Marine means peace of mind — and easier river access than ever.


🏆 Benefits of Dry-Stack Storage

Dry-Stack Storage offers boaters several key advantages over traditional in-water slips or trailer storage:

  • Protects your investment: No prolonged hull exposure to water = less algae, corrosion, and maintenance

  • Minimizes weather damage: Stored indoors or under cover, safe from hail, snow, and harsh sun

  • No need for trailers or ramps: We launch and recover for you — just call ahead and we’ll have your boat ready

  • Secure: Locked facility with controlled access

  • Saves you money: Fewer repairs, less cleaning, lower maintenance costs


📍 Grace Marine’s Prime Location on the Mississippi River

Conveniently situated in LeClaire, IA, Grace Marine’s Captain’s Quarters DryStack & Marina offers easy access to one of America’s most scenic and storied waterways — the Upper Mississippi River.

➤ Ideal Launch Point for River Cruising

Dry-stack customers can be on the water within minutes of arriving. From our docks, you can:

  • Cruise upriver to Dubuque or Guttenberg for beautiful bluffside views

  • Head downstream toward Quad Cities hotspots, including Davenport, Bettendorf, and Rock Island

  • Dock at riverside restaurants, breweries, and parks for weekend fun
