How it worksFour simple stepsReading time · 4 min

From a rough idea to a shortlist you can trust.

You should not have to know the perfect model before you start. Listings Port lets you begin with a goal, a budget, or a boat name, then helps you shape the search from there.

Say what you have in mind.

Step · Research

Open Research and describe the boat you need in the words you would use with a friend.

A stiff, beginner-friendly family cruiser under 35 ft that can handle a Great Lakes crossing.

We compare your words with 10,000+ boat writeups and the specs behind them. You get boats that seem suited to the job, not just listings that happen to repeat your keywords.

  • LOALength overall, ft or m
  • DRAFTMax depth at keel, ft or m
  • KEELFin, full, centerboard, swing
  • SA/DSail area to displacement ratio
  • RATIOComfort, capsize, ballast %

Outcomea helpful list of matching models

02

Compare models inline.

Step · Compare

Results open in a table you can scan quickly. Keep the columns you care about, switch between imperial and metric, and open the writeup for any boat without losing your place.

  • VERDICTPlain-language notes on where the model shines and where it does not
  • CHECKThings to check before a viewing trip
  • SORTComfort ratio, capsize screening, SA/D
  • UNITSOne click — imperial ↔ metric

It is built for comparison: one row per boat, with the numbers you want close at hand.

Outcomea narrowed shortlist of 3–8 models

03

Build your Collection.

Step · Shortlist

As you find contenders, save them to a Collection — your running list of boats worth another look.

Collections stay with your account, so you can leave and come back. Make one per trip, one per stage, or just one called "Still interested."

  • TRIPContenders for Mediterranean
  • STAGEShortlist after viewings
  • OPENStill interested

When it is time to talk it through, share a Collection with a partner or broker using one simple link.

Outcomea named shortlist, saved for later

04

Step · Market
