Your boat deserves
a home that fits.

HarborNest traces the water route from a home to open water: every bridge and its clearance, the shallowest charted depth and the tides. Then it checks the dock against your boat, before you book a showing.

Built for boaters

Every search starts with the question:
"Can my boat get out?"

HarborNest answers it before you book a showing, for any address on the coast from Jupiter Inlet to Coconut Grove.

Route to Open Water

Type an address or drop a pin. HarborNest traces the water route to the nearest inlet and lists every fixed and opening bridge with its charted clearance.

Boat Fit

Compare your boat's length, beam, draft and air draft with a listing's dock and the bridges on its way out. Missing details show as unknown, never as a pass.

Depths and Tides

The shallowest charted depth at low water along the route, plus tide predictions from the nearest NOAA station.

Waterfront Listings

Dock length, water depth at low tide, boat lift and shore power on every listing, with the seller or agent a message away.

Free to Browse

Search listings and run route checks without an account. Sign up free to save homes, add your boats and message sellers.

Honest About the Charts

When the chart and the bridge inventory disagree, HarborNest uses the lower clearance. Not for navigation: charts can be out of date, so check locally before you buy.

Inside the app

Every screen built for boaters.

Real screens from the app: a route check from Las Olas Isles, Fort Lauderdale, for a boat with a 14 ft air draft and 4 ft draft.

A straight answer to a real question.
