  • Decent... lots of potential with bugs

    I really enjoy BoatTrader’s website because it allows me to search the whole country or Southeast unlike Facebook marketplace that forces me to look locally. I primarily do this on my phone so that app was a blessing when I found it.

    However, you can only search for one make/model at a time unlike on the website where I can select multiple different boats to search for and then scroll through them all. This wouldn’t be that big of a deal if once you searched one you could search another but once you search... it won’t let you reset to select another make/model. You have to close the app and search for the next one and close it each time.

    It can also be finicky when looking at pictures. When you try to zoom in, it may cut off the picture and not allow you to pan and you may not be able to zoom out or exit the photo sometimes... again forcing you to close the app and reset.

    Overall a good app that allows me to do what I want to do, shop for boats, but it could use some work on the development side.

  • Terrible Search Functionality

    Search and advance search function is trash. When searching by make and selecting a model, you can’t go back and choose a different model. Clearing the search doesn’t help because as soon as you select the same make, it filters to the last model you chose and you can’t select a different model yet again.

  • Awesome

    Can’t say enough this is the best way to look for a boat . New and used alike. Puts the boating world at your fingertips and your bank account. If you’re serious about buying the ship of your dreams check this application it won’t steer you wrong.
  • The place for boats

    By far the best app available. Easy to use
  • Sort by price

    Love that it does that automatically
  • Antiquated app that needs help

    This app seems to be stuck in the early app developments. It gets stuck when you look up make/models (it won’t let you search for a new make/model) without having to start over. If you are looking at a picture of a boat and turn your phone sideways so that you can see a larger view of it, the app gets stuck and you can’t click out of the add without closing the entire app down and starting all over again. You would think that a site like Autotrader/ boat trader would have the means to build a top quality app. They have severely dropped the ball on this one.

  • Great Virtual Market

    II recently purchased a boat through a private seller on BT. The experience was great and the platform let me compare many boats from across the country so that I could purchase the right one for our family.
  • App has bugs

    I like this app but there is one big in paticular that is a deal breaker. After viewing a few boats, images suddenly stop loading for the entire app. So if you haven't found something in about 8 boats, you'll have to shut down the app and restart. But not immediately, you'll have to wait a few minutes. Then Prince and repeat with the new session. This had been happening for quite a while now.. Obviously it's part of the design and they like it. Good luck!
