Compare boats,
not adverts.

100 demonstration records across 14 countries, every one on the same page, with the same fields in the same order. Where a seller said nothing, you get a blank instead of a guess.

Listing is free and always in the seller’s own language. The one thing we sell is a registry check, and it buys a fact somebody else can verify. Never a place in the order.

Paste the advert you already wrote.

Any language. It comes back as fields, with the gaps left as gaps, and the panel then shows you every field it lifted and every one it could not.

The market

Every listing, right now

100 demonstration records · 14 countries

These are demonstration records: boats invented to show how the field grid, the completeness score and the em-dash grammar behave. None is for sale, and none is copied from any portal. The first real listing arrives when a seller brings one. List a real one →

Why this market

The old portals sell attention.
This one sells nothing but the truth.

A classifieds site is paid by sellers, so the thing it optimises is how good a boat looks. Change who pays and every decision downstream changes with it. Six of them, side by side.

A seller-funded portal

The listingSpecs typed by whoever wants the sale, the same boat on four sites.
Missing factsQuietly filled in, or the field disappears.
Who goes firstFeatured slots, bumps, refreshes. The order is partly a price list.
What it costsThe asking price. VAT and transport turn up later.
Price historyToday's number. Whatever it was in March, you cannot tell.
Who pays usSellers pay for attention, so attention is what gets sold.

On BoatMarkets

The listingOne page per boat. Same fields, same order, so two can be read side by side.
Missing factsA gap stays blank. Ask a question it cannot answer and it says so.
Who goes firstWhichever sort you picked. Newest, price, or how complete the record is.
What it costsWhat the stated facts total, with every unpriceable line named.
Price historyEvery move, dated, from the listing's own timeline.
Who pays usSellers can buy a fact someone else can check.

Sell yours

Three minutes, and nothing invented.

You wrote the advert once already. Paste it, read what the parser made of it, publish. Same shape as every other boat here, which is what makes them comparable.

01

Paste it, in any language

Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, German, French and Spanish are the ones we test on every build.

02

It goes up

Publishing is one step, and only the price can be changed afterwards. There is no draft to review first. Read the advert before you paste it.

03

Read what it found, and what it missed

The panel prints every field it lifted and every one it could not. Blanks stay blank. We will not guess a beam to round the page out. Every later change is a new dated version, so a price drop is something the listing says out loud.

My boat

The papers, kept
while you own her.

A boat is sold on its paperwork. Most of it is in a drawer, a folder of photos, and whatever the last owner remembered to say. The boat book is where it lives instead: dated, in one place, and yours whether or not you ever list her here.

Nothing in the book is public. There is no page for it, and every document download checks your session. When you do come to sell, the book can write the advert from the entries you already made: only stated facts, nothing filled in.

What is in it

  • The log. Engine hours, antifouling, winterisation, repairs. Dated, with cost. Never capped, on any tier.
  • The vault. Insurance, registration, VAT proof, surveys, receipts. No public page, and every download checks your session.
  • The grade. Scored from your own log, with every missing item printed rather than rounded away.

The grade is scored from what you entered, so it goes down when a service falls due. That is the point of it: a number that only ever went up would be a decoration.

The rules

Three rules, no exceptions.

01

One listing per boat

The same fields, every time, whoever wrote the advert and whatever language it was in.

02

Nothing is made up

If the seller did not state it, it shows a dash. We never fill a gap with a guess.

03

Nobody can pay to rank higher

There is no such setting in the system. Money buys one thing here: more checked facts about a boat.
