User Reviews for YachtWorld - Yachts for Sale

Blanked out photos

It starts off fine, but if you’re looking through more than a small amount of bits, it feels like it needs a refresh button, because the pictures I was looking at turn to gray blank pages. Exit out to the next boat only to find 99% of those I haven’t viewed are now grayed out. It feels like the app is losing its data retention. I’ve tried going back and researching the same content through the filter button but no change. I need to exit the app and come back. Exiting, swiping up, reopening immediately doesn’t update it. It is frustrating because as others have said, this IS one, if not the most comprehensive list of boats to look at. But if you’re slow with looking, you may lose you’re ability to look altogether.

It's close to being useful

This app has potential, but cannot do it's most essential jobs correctly. It only works in portrait on my iPad, which is in a keyboard case in landscape, so I have to remove it from the case to use. The images load but if you tap on them it will switch the images to landscape, but inexplicably crop the top and bottom off the pictures. Given that the value in an app selling boats is mainly in the pictures and it's handling of them, I can't understand why this simple functionality, show pictures, rotate the device as needed, display the entire image, is a bridge too far for the developers. Please fix image handling, please allow the app to rotate. I am typing this review with the app rotated 90 degrees and me tilting my head to see how many typos I have made. The saving grace for this app is mainly that compared to the website, which has the single worst image handling I have ever seen on a site specializing in selling million dollar boats, is even worse.

Overall Good App

You can quickly find the boats you’re interested in. Good filters, overall good layout. That said, after viewing several postings (on an iPad), pictures freeze up and you no longer can see pictures of the boat you’re looking at, nor pictures of other posts. Close down the app app and restart….everything is good. This until it happens again within just a couple minutes.

Decent source

I wish you could filter out certain things. Such as time share boats / fractional ownership or other items not interested in. Also some listings are really vague or have limited information about the boat they wish to sell. This is a loss to those trying to sell and not a fault to the developer. But what if the the developer could add fields to help encourage customers to add more data about there boats at the time they write up their ads (something to get better info). It seems weird that someone who wants to sell an expensive yacht but doesn’t make the effort to add as much detail as possible.Update: Dropping to 1 star. Perhaps not the fault of the app but I emailed Lelievre / Alize Marine from within the app. Shortly after i started getting really bad spam. I never ever had spam mail on that email before. I also never got a reply from that marine company either. Not sure why they would post an add with pictures that were clearly not the pictures of that boat or older pics. The description said the boat was hurricane damaged but the pictures were of a new boat. If i am wrong let me know and i will either update or delete my review.

Crashes all the time

I have a recent iPhone and keep software up to date. This app is frankly as bad as the website. It crashes all the time; after about 5 minutes of browsing, all listing pictures disappear and you have to completely shut down app and often phone as well to reset them. The video ads of course, always work even when the app has frozen. Some of the advanced filters on the website are not available on the app. The interface is functional but kind of clunky and dated. Unless this app was purpose built to replicate the random frustrations of boat ownership, there is a lot of room for improvement. I don’t know what the parent company’s status is or if they are continuing to make investments in the app but if they are, both corporate and software developers should take note that YW is no longer the global monopoly they once were and curating brokerage listings in an accessible and clean way is not a particularly difficult programming task.

Crashed when viewing favorites!

i’m not sure for how many versions we still need to suffer through the crashes. But every time I click on one of my favorite boats, it just crashes. So click on a liked boat, click on a boat, and crashes. my second grime is with the pictures. Viewing images of boats is terrible. Accidentally, you always click on the picture eventually. Then it blows up a little bit and navigation turns into a nightmare. The pictures are cropped incorrectly and are not shown in the full original size. The loading Times are crazy high, independent of Internet connection quality. I really hope they fix this at some point. The website, even the mobile website, works so much better! I only wish I could login and actually save favorites. But there’s no account option.

New format is clunky and awkward—go back to the old way!

I used to LOVE searching for boats on the Yachtworld website. The changes to the web version implemented about a year ago (?) and the poor functionality of this lame app are so disappointing. Hard to search for more than one model of boat at the same time. Filters are clunky and don’t always work, hence the 3-star review. However, it is still the most comprehensive compendium of yachts for sale, so you won’t be able to find what you are looking for if you don’t make this your foundation to anchor (no pun intended) your search and ability to compare boats of similar makes and models.

Superior app to boat trader

I used the boat trader app exclusively but once I used this app, I haven’t gone back to boat trader. This app is not glitchy and I love the way you can constantly scroll down even after swiping through pictures of listings. I would like a mileage radius feature though - unless I’m missing something I can only choose my location, (unknown distance???) or I must choose a single state. Choosing a single state seems silly to me as I’m in the northeast and want to see several states inventory at a time. If these selections exists then I’m missing them or it’s not intuitive- but over all, I do love the app.

Lots of room for improvement

Be sure to put in a price range. If you leave the low end open, it brings in boats that are clearly too expensive, but has “Call for Price” If a boat does not have a stated price then it should not show up in searches. Also, if you put in a 40 foot size it will return results bigger than 40 foot…so why even bother? It gives results outside of the search parameters. There should be a minimum requirement of decent photos before allowing a boat to be listed. Some listings have just a few terrible photos.Also, there is no ability to exclude certain parameters such as certain makes from the search.

Unusable on iPhone 8 — Updated: just Unusable

Update: They have updated the search functionality, so that it’s now not a software bug, but just not an option at all. So... worse. You can now not even put in a location anymore regardless of screen size. It’s not an option. You can only search within a distance of your current location. So, whereas it was unusable on smaller phones due to a bug, it is now unusable for everyone who wants to browse boats that are not near where they live. ————————-Original Review:Seems fine when you first open it, but if you want to search by any location that isn’t your Current Location, you are completely unable. It the keyboard completely covers the drop down for selecting your country with no way to scroll down to see it. If that’s your use-case, just use the web app. It’s far superior. It got 2 stars rather than 1 because it seems like this might not be an issue on larger phones. Also, the saved searches seem useful, but only if I can actually search for what I want.
