Obato

Ask Bo, Obato's AI boat expert, any question about boats, watersports or the European boat market. Returns a cited answer grounded in Obato's live market data. Rate-limited (5 req/min/IP).

Compare two boat brands head-to-head on Obato: listing counts, avg/median price, avg length, year range. Brand matching is case-insensitive substring matching, identical to search_boats. Powers 'X vs Y' answer-engine queries (e.g. 'Bavaria vs Beneteau').

Find European marinas (jachthavens) that match a set of amenities: electricity, water, fuel, wifi. Optional country/province filters. Returns up to 25 marinas. Country names are accepted in Dutch or English; province spelling variants (Friesland/Fryslan, Niedersachsen/Lower Saxony) are matched together. Note: `fuel` is very rare in the current dataset (almost no marina records it), so electricity/water/wifi are the useful filters; combining fuel with other amenities usually yields 0 results. The response includes `amenity_availability` with, per amenity, how many marinas in the selection have it and how many recorded it at all — a missing record does not mean the amenity is absent.
