This feature provides significant added value by allowing users to keep their boating life organised, accessible, and backed-up, contributing to improved safety, legal compliance, peace of mind, lower operational costs, and potentially a higher reselling price for their boat.

Register your boat, including all its technical characteristics and specifications. Have automatic marine ratios calculations, like displacement hull speed, displacement to length, sail-area to displacement, etc. Include customised elements and systems you have added, like bow-thruster, water maker, etc. Shortlist other boats and compare side to side.

Search & Explore

The Search & Explore feature is the gateway to TheBoatDB's massive, open database of boat specifications.

This feature adds significant value by simplifying the discovery process. Whether a user is searching for a specific model by name or exploring broad categories (such as sailing yachts, catamarans, or powerboats), the platform provides detailed specifications, metrics, and ratios. This transparency allows users to make data-driven decisions, moving beyond simple aesthetics to understand the technical capabilities and characteristics of different vessels. It effectively serves as the foundational research tool before moving into deeper analysis like comparing and benchmarking.

Find those boats satisfying your criteria and add them to your shortlist for later reference or further comparisons, being able to easily benchmark side-by-side any boat.
