The Story
It started because
no one was telling the
whole truth.
"Brokers chase commissions. Builders chase quotas. The buyer is left guessing — and usually regrets it."
I grew up around boats in Egypt — first as a passenger, then an owner, and eventually the person friends would call before making a decision.
Before that, I was on the water early. My father took me fishing in the Red Sea when I was two. Long days, big fish, and a lot of time just reading the sea. It stays with you.
Fishing became more than a hobby. I later joined the Fish Hunters — a professional angling team in Egypt — and went on to win multiple national tournaments.
Years in branding and working with marine clients gave me a different view of the market — how boats are positioned, how they're sold, and where things don't always add up.
In 2025, I started sharing honest video reviews of the boats people were actually considering.
The response was immediate. People started reaching out — asking questions and comparing options — and brands began seeing more serious conversations, not just views.
That's how TheBoatfinder® took shape.
Today, it sits between content, advice, and transactions — without compromising any of them.
"I don't list everything I come across. Most boats don't make it through. If it's here, it's been looked at properly — and I'd stand behind it for someone close to me."
Based in Barcelona, working across Egypt and the UAE, I stay close to both sides of the market — the boats, and the people around them.
If you understand how this space works, you'll feel the difference. If you don't, that's exactly where this helps.
The Platform
What isTheBoatfinder®
Between you & the right boat
TheBoatfinder® is an independent platform that helps buyers and sellers navigate the boat market more clearly.
For buyers, it offers unbiased guidance, real walkthroughs, and access to selected opportunities — including stock and lightly used boats that aren't always visible. The goal is simple: help you understand, avoid mistakes, and make better decisions. You don't pay extra for that — and in many cases, you get better outcomes.
For dealers and manufacturers, it creates direct access to serious buyers — through content, positioning, and real conversations that lead to actual demand. Commission is only paid when a deal is made.
"It sits between content, advice, and transactions — without the bias of any one of them."
The Gap
There is interest.
There is inventory.
There is no bridge.
Manufacturers

- No market-entry guidance
Dealers
- Slow-moving inventory
- Inconsistent content
- Limited qualified demand
Buyers
- Too many options

- Confusion between brands
This is the gap TheBoatfinder® fills.
