Boat Search Lab Measures the Trip Home
A boat-hunting service watches seven listing sites, merges duplicate adverts, preserves listing photographs, and sorts boats by how they could actually get home.
Field notes
The service combines scheduled collection with a personal research layer: users can keep notes and ratings on individual boats while the system collapses cross-posted adverts into one record. Its distinguishing calculation is the route home, with examples expressed in nautical miles and locks rather than ordinary road distance. The page names seven source sites and says photographs remain available after an advert is removed. A separate first-time-buyer guidance section is described as forthcoming.
