Available tools 11

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

boat

get_boat_details

Fetch detail of one boat listing by seo_slug or id.

get_boat_pricing_stats

Pricing statistics (count, avg, median, p25, p75, min, max) for a boat category, with optional region (province, country or city) and length range. Prices always match the requested scope; `price_scope` states whether they are provincial, per country, per place or national.

market

get_market_stats

Aggregate market stats (count, avg/median/min/max price) for a category and optional region. English/German/French category and country names are normalised. When `regio` is a Dutch province, counts AND prices are computed over that province only (price_scope='province').

market_snapshot

Real-time snapshot of the European boat market on Obato — total listings, average prices by boat type, and regional distribution. Cached ~5 minutes.

ask

ask_bo

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).

boats

search_boats

Search Obato's public marketplace for boats. Filters: free-text query, category (type_boot), region, brand, price range. English/German/French input is accepted and normalised (e.g. 'sailboat' -> zeilboot, 'Germany' -> land Duitsland); `regio` may be a Dutch province, a country or a city. Returns up to 25 listings plus an exact total_matches; on 0 results a suggestion with a relaxed filter is included.

brand

get_brand_info

Knowledge-graph info about a specific boat brand or manufacturer on Obato: description, expert facts, authority score, active listing count.

compare

compare_brands

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').

facts

get_facts

Citable facts about boats and watersports from Obato's knowledge graph, ranked by authority score. Each fact includes a source citation suitable for grounded LLM answers.

marina

find_marina_with_amenities

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.

rentals

search_rentals

Search Obato's rental fleet (verhuur) for boats available to rent. Filters: free-text query, boat type, region/country, capacity, max price per day, optional date (YYYY-MM-DD) to filter on available days. English/German/French type and country names are normalised. Returns up to 25 rental boats with default daily price plus an exact total_matches after price and date filtering.

Obato — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Obato do?

It exposes 11 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: ask_bo, compare_brands, find_marina_with_amenities, get_boat_details, get_boat_pricing_stats, get_brand_info and 5 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

What is Obato mostly used for?

Its tools cluster around boat and market. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.

Is Obato working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 375 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Obato?

Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does Obato need an API key?

No. Obato completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 11 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Obato?

It answers our handshake in 375 ms on average, which is faster than 35% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
