How It Works

1

Synthetic Data

2,000 realistic boat sales records generated with domain-informed pricing rules (manufacturer premiums, seasonal effects, condition multipliers).

2

XGBoost Model

Gradient-boosted trees trained on 10 features achieve R²=84.4% accuracy. Predictions are pre-computed for instant responses.

3

SHAP Explainability

TreeSHAP reveals which features drive each prediction — engine HP and condition matter most, while hull material has minimal impact.
