GetMyBoat Scraper

GetMyBoat Scraper

Scrape boat rental listings from GetMyBoat for any destination, up to a million per run. Each listing comes with its title, price, capacity, rating, and boat type. Filter by category, price range, and guest count. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.

GetMyBoat is the world's largest boat rental marketplace, but manually browsing thousands of listings for market analysis or lead generation is slow. This Actor reads the public search results directly, letting you collect boat listings from any destination with the filters you need. No API key or browser automation required.

Troubleshooting

I am getting no results for my custom location.

Check that your custom slug matches the format exactly: City--State--Country, with spaces replaced by hyphens. For example, New-Orleans--LA--United-States. Also verify that GetMyBoat has listings in that location by searching the site manually.

The Actor is running slowly with detail pages enabled.

This is expected because each listing requires a separate page request. Reduce the maximum number of boats, or run without detail pages first to identify the listings you want, then scrape only those specific URLs with details enabled.

Some listings are missing prices or ratings.

Not all boat owners fill in every field on GetMyBoat. If a listing does not show a price or rating on the public search page, the Actor cannot collect it. These fields will be empty in your output.

My price filter is not returning the listings I expect.

The price filter uses the base price displayed on the search card, which may be an hourly rate for some boats and a daily rate for others. Try widening your price range or removing the filter to see all available listings first.

I am hitting the maximum items limit but want more data.

Increase the Maximum boats setting up to 1,000,000. If you need even more, split your scrape by running multiple smaller location or category combinations and merging the datasets afterward.

FAQ

Question	Answer
Can I scrape listings from any city worldwide?	Yes. The preset dropdown covers 20 popular destinations, and the Custom Location option lets you enter any city slug in the format City--State--Country, such as Boston--MA--United-States.
How do I find the correct slug for a custom location?	Search for your destination on GetMyBoat.com and copy the city, state, and country from the URL. The slug uses double hyphens between each part, with spaces replaced by hyphens.
Does this Actor require a GetMyBoat account or API key?	No. It reads the publicly available search pages, so you do not need to register an app, handle OAuth, or manage rate limits.
What extra fields do I get when I enable Include Full Details?	The detail page adds the boat's make, model, year, full text description, listed features, detailed pricing breakdowns, and an AI-generated summary of the listing.
Can I filter by boat type?	Yes. The Category dropdown lets you select from yacht rentals, sailboats, pontoons, fishing charters, jet skis, houseboats, catamarans, speedboats, kayaks, and party boats.
How many listings can I scrape in one run?	You can set the maximum up to 1,000,000 listings. The Actor will stop when it reaches your limit or when no more listings match your filters.
Does the price filter use the hourly rate or the total trip price?	The price filter applies to the base listing price shown on the search results page, which is typically the starting hourly or daily rate depending on the boat owner's settings.
Can I combine multiple filters in one run?	Yes. You can set a location, category, price range, and minimum guest capacity all in the same run to narrow results to exactly the listings you need.
Is this Actor faster with detail pages turned off?	Yes. Without detail pages, the Actor only reads the search results list, which is much faster. Enabling detail pages makes a separate request for each listing, so it takes longer but returns richer data.
What output formats are supported?	You can export your dataset to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML directly from the Apify platform.
