We looked at the new Boat.gr website the way your clients and AI assistants will meet it: the first screen, the words, the path to an enquiry, and what AI crawlers can read.
Shows “To use reCAPTCHA you must enter the API keys…” to visitors. Add the keys and send a test from each form.
GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot get “Unauthorized Access”. Confirm the rule is staging-only, or allow them.
“I agree to the Privacy Policy” is white on a light background, but must be ticked to send.

“Charter a yacht” and “Buy a yacht” are thin outlines with 10px text, in the corner after a divider. The eye never reaches them.
Seconds of an empty navy block while it loads; then a close-up of a superstructure with little sea, under a headline about the sea.
One solid primary button under the headline, a still image that shows instantly, and a first screen that asks: charter or buy?

Names in two different cases (O’PARI, Christina O), 8px “Weekly charter rate” labels and 11px grey specs.
The jump from huge headlines to tiny text looks elegant on a large screen and is hard to read everywhere else, especially on phones.
A type scale with nothing under 14px and body text at 16–17px. One case style for yacht names.



Labels on a solid strip or a stronger gradient, white arrows on photos, and the white logo in the header.


Four short proof points, shown once, after the yachts, where visitors start asking “can I trust them?”. The full history moves to the Company page.

Shows “To use reCAPTCHA you must enter the API keys on the Quform settings page.” The required consent line is invisible. Two headings compete.
This is where a €740,000-a-week charter starts. A visitor who sees an error at the last step leaves, and nobody hears about it.
An internal label (“Sales central agency”), two specs, an empty cell and no price or “price on request”. Buyers need length, engines, location and a broker to talk to.


The first screen is an empty block until the video loads, and “Charter a yacht” breaks onto two lines. The homepage is 16 phone screens long, with three full-width yacht cards one under another, and no button that stays in reach.
A still image that loads instantly, yachts in a swipeable row, and a pinned bar with “Charter” and “Buy” (or “Enquire” and WhatsApp) on every page.

Two paths side by side on one horizon.

The yacht on stage, in Boat.gr navy and gold.

Say what you want; the site finds the yachts.

“What brings you to the sea?” and one switch.
| Company | First screen | Charter / Buy choice | Search on first screen | Prices before scrolling |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fraser | Lifestyle video, “First & Foremost” | Menu only | No | No |
| Burgess | Lifestyle video, “Discover the difference” | Menu only | No | No |
| Camper & Nicholsons | Lifestyle video, slogan | Menu only | No | No |
| Northrop & Johnson | Aerial photo, headline | Two buttons | No | No |
| IYC | “It’s your choice”, bright photo | Two buttons | No | No |
| Greek company A | Booking bar, discount banner | Charter only | Charter | No |
| Greek company B | Lifestyle video, headline | Menu only | No | No |
| Boat.gr staging | Yacht video, headline | Two small buttons | No | No |
The gap Boat.gr can take: a first screen where charter clients and buyers each get their own search, with real yachts and prices before scrolling. All four directions do this.




In our audit of the live site (16 Oct), Boat.gr was named in 3 of 84 answers from ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity. The new site fixes some of the reasons.
| Check | Result | What we found |
|---|---|---|
| AI crawler access | Blocked | GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot get “Unauthorized Access” (403); our IP was banned after ~15 requests |
| Content without JS | Good | Yacht names, prices and descriptions are in the page HTML |
| Yacht pages | Good | Each yacht has its own title, description and share image |
| llms.txt | Partial | 183 entries led by old blog posts; yachts and services buried |
| Sitemap | Partial | ~130 yacht pages, incl. test pages (“cant-remember”, “option-b”) |
| Structured data | Weak | Homepage marked as an article by “admin”; nothing on yachts or services |
