I bought this boat only because of your video. Today it is after a great refresh, we installed solar panels with an energy bank. The boat is beautiful. Of course, the entrance to the engine room is from the outside today. And the washing machine has found a new place. Regards and thank you Maciej from Poland.
Enjoy!
The two guys on the aft - "You aren't buying. I can't see you."
That sundeck is one of the nicest areas I've seen on a boat... the rest is a little dated for me. Hopefully they have children on board to do the laundry. Thanks Nick!
Thats what I was thinking.
What an awful placement for the washing machines
@@BerlinBLR that was a crazy place for laundry. Also, I thought only 4 bunks for the captain and crew might not be enough.
@@BerlinBLR At least it's not in the dayheads!
You can probably employ a couple of chinese 7 year olds for the laundry.
Aquaholic: "over here on the left, this is the.."
me (predicting him to say): "Dayhead"
Aquaholic: "LIFT."
me: 🤯
Hahaha
As you`d NOT expect 😅
I want a Lift demo please! (Careful, Sterling Moss broke his ankles in his small Lift)
He still says "dayheads" in plural for some reason.
@@phillip3330 In olden days the Toilet was at the HEAD (Bow) of a Ship. Usually x2
I love this Nick. When we chatted was this the one that a disabled person would like. The lift is great for a 35M, prefer it outside the main cabin. So no visiting mates keep pressing the lift lol. For a vessel built in 2000, with a 2017 upgrade for €2,450, 000 (with a unique lift layout, and that cool touch adding an upper helm deck (upper deck from sun deck.). The layout of this vessel is beautiful. The 2017 overhall has been done to an amazing standard. Great workshop with fridge in the engine room. 32knots is a nice speed for 35m with good head height (your 6'2" and easy for you). Shes a mean looking vessel. How much would a new equivalent be built for. If you saw this whilst looking for a similar class. You'd have a fantastic bargain. I think if I had one built, or any sized yaght. Id make sure the crew quarters were just slightly smaller than a twin guest with 3rd or 4th pullman and en suite etc. Good sized crew lounge and a home from home.
Certainly unique layout with a private lift down to the master suite, and the extra deck for upper helm. Both nice touches.
Great video as always Sir..
I'm not sure what new boats in this size range do that speed today. There are a fair few Mangusta styled "poweryachts" but this is more of a serious cruiser
Glad you liked it, and yes, absolutely ideal for someone of reduced mobility (note the wider passerelle too). The lift has to be where it is in order to access the upper deck. Any further forward and it would end up where the helm is, or in front of it!
@@visionist7 I watched a video recently with a huge power yaght speedster doing over 42knots. Probably a Mangusta style?. I did mean to add for a cruiser yaght. I know you and everyone knew what I meant. Its a lot of vessel for a 2000 (2017 overhauled) worth under €3 million. I love it personally. I do love the Princess 30m £6.1 million, and the Sunseeker 131 at £17million, also the Spada and Andrea yaghts that Nick has featured on his channel. Very much to my taste. Ive only been watching superyaght videos for a few months with many hundreds of videos in my private folder. Being disabled Im laid up most the time. Id love to work at sea again. But the next best thing is documentaries on many thing maritime orientated. My bucket list would be to have a trip on a Superyaght, or win lottery lol. I'd love to do walkthroughs in person. No need to make videos, as I'll leave that to Nick, and some of the other great walkthrough channels. They do such a great job, and the way they plan and execute their walkthroughs, are second to none. Some channels have strange formats. Others have it spot on. Me personally - I feel they should all watch Aquaholic videos, and they would see how perfection personified is achieved. Long may you make great videos Sir.
@@AQUAHOLIC Very well concieved design Nick, esp the Paseraille. Of course my apologies, I got disoriented as you came down from the main deck to the lower deck. Didnt picture the lift where it actually was sited. I still wouldve hoped the designers of this yaght placed the lift like other vessel place their lifts (then again at 35m Im in agreement it had to be placed where it is). Although Id prefer a lift, to the specs like on a yaght - I recently viewed on a video on Denison Yaghts channel. The vessel was a 164 Codecasa superyaght call 'Invader'. The lift went from the lower deck situated inside the guest Foyer, and stairwell area. The lift came to the main deck aft of the main deck Foyer, as the Main deck Foyer stairwell - started further forward. The lift and stairwells were on the starboard side. Ahead of the main foyer was the day head, then finally the main deck master suite (office starboard side enrty, into main bedroom, shared bathroom furthest forward on the main deck (Im sure you know what Im meaning Nick. You've seen this design. Im just not very eloquent in my descriptive narrative). The lift then went upto the bridge deck, to a beautiful layout. Coming aft from the Helm, lead to the radio room, out the radio room, pass the stairwell. Then passing the powder room and Captains quaters, it lead to a pantry. Next to the pantry with full galley, and well aft from the helm, area was the lift. Coming further aft out of the lift, lead to the Sun lounge and aft deck dining. The best thing about this Invader yaght, was that on the Sun deck, the owner requested a rare feature. He wanted the lift to access this deck also. So had an enclosure built around the mast area and crows nest to fit the lift. Now accessing all decks. Ive not seen this in any other yaght I've seen. I'm sure you have many times Nick. I think this 35m Guy Couach has placed the lift in the best place possible for her size. Clever design feature. Just wanted to describe my favourite lift layout. I love this Invader yaght, cause she was spec built by owner, designer, shipyard input. I believe shes about the same age as this yaght. I think its why I love her and this yaght along with Spada and the Andrea yaght. Older vessels with a fresh update. You get so much more bang for your buck.
Sorry for long description, I should've just typed have a look at the Invader video walkthrough. But I just love the lift layout, esp in the Sun deck. Im mainly apologising for my lack of skill in decscribing what Im trying to convey, not giving justice to the real beauty of the yaght. Thsts why we have you kind sir. To show us how its done. You Keep posting - I'll keep watching, liking, commenting.
Great video as I mentioned.
@@didgerb72 Thanks David, I'll take a look at that video. :)
Nothing better than aquaholic pausing for a proper glimpse.....and then he utters “that’s fantastic” as if he just discovered fire.
This is a 35m boat, the ship currently got stuck in suez canal is 400m long, It gives you a pretty good idea how massive that ship is.
that’s a lot of boat for that price
It is!
Shoot, only just saw the price, that's nothing for a used superyacht. Maybe she needs an overhaul?
@@visionist7 He said she's had an refit. Do you mean an engine overhaul?
@@farzana6676 ah, didn't hear him mention it.
I reckon it was cheap too, someone will be stoked with that. Already sold by now.
I am a huge fan of your content, giving clear tours of boats we would never get to access otherwise. I realised it was a Turkish owned boat at the very end with the engine room signs which are in Turkish :) All the best from Istanbul :)
Hey there Istanbul! 🙂
7:14 something you don't see often, especially on a boat you're showing to prospective buyers, ashtrays for the smokers.
What a convenient place to put the laundy facilities...said no one ever
I thought the same thing.
Yup! If like 3 feet tall. I wonder where "they" hire their crew... ;-)
I imagine someone getting out of lift whilst I'm in the bath......comedy gold ensues !
Or worse.... On the loo.
The bath is big enough for two, so no bother.
If you're in the bath then I'd assume that you're the owner.Just don't have anyone else use the lift. Owner only. :-)
That’s how the owner secretly meets with the crew!
I scrolled down just to find a comment abou this haha, you're the first, Im sure theres more though
I love the ones that look bigger on the inside than it does on the outside. It looks more like a building and home than a lot of boats out there. And I love the clear railings, steps and tables. You've toured a lot of more expensive boats with a lot less style. This one is a beautiful gem!
I can’t believe you didn’t take a ride on the lift!
I know right
DISGOUSTING! (how do you write that lol)
I bet it doesn't work. Lifts at sea usually break, imagine being stuck in one and the lift engineer is half a world away.
@@sirmalus5153 really?
I know it's difficult to get a side angle view of the exterior in a marina, but is it possible you could flash up a stock photo at the beginning of the tour just so we can see the lines of the boat?
strange lee you could just search it up
+1 please look them up yourselves. Showing stills in the beginning was already dated in 1999
Hmm, interior looks like it was designed in 1984, and the layout is very weird. But thanks for the vid, love to see more weird yachts :)
I agree, the layout is weird. I wonder how many times someome has been taking a shower or sitting on the toilet in the owners master bath, and received a visitor via the elevator?
This obviously was designed with the "El Chapo" floorplan. No matter how many Los Federales board your yacht, they'll never find you in any of the 4,000 awkward passage ways that comprise this hamster maze of a ship.
Gives a whole new meaning to "lost at sea". Especially with only an 800 mile range at cruising speed?! Better keep the Coast Guard on speed-dial.
Although I will say - from the front at 8:05 it does look quite imposing!
Probably why it’s so cheap
Layout is weird, but the light design is way prettier then the all wood design.
I dont agree, I usually prefer marble, granite tops, light interiors with plenty of stainless steel/ chrome etc. but this looks stylish and bright, I like it and dont agree it's from 1984 or dated at all.the white cabinetry is chic and modern.
That bathroom was larger than one of the flats that I lived in several years ago. Not crazy about the white and gold, but interestingly the more I watch the more it grows on me. The very top deck with the controls offers amazing views. I could just sit up there and watch out over the water. Another excellent tour, getting in all the nooks and crannies.
I wouldn’t want to be having a poo in the master en-suite when someone comes down in the lift
I'm guessing the elevator is reserved for the owner's use only. They could be in a wheelchair, which would explain why the elevator takes them directly to a large (wheelchair capable) heads. Would be interesting to know if this was part of the original design or the retrofit.
Except for the bizarre washer dryer location, this is a nice spacious, welcoming, comfortable and competent boat that is absent any signs of garish opulence and needless expense. And hence the exceptional price ! 🙂👍
I love to crawl into a metal cave with hurdles to wash my clothes, but it seems inappropriate for a workspace? I guess it is the crew washer and dryer, but that's one of the most old school design flaws out of any new super yacht.
Beautiful yacht, reminds me of those super yachts from 1988 in Boat International magazine. Beautifully restored with clear handrails and staircase. Thanks Nick. For bringing back a classic. 👍
Greetings - This has to be my pick of 2019. Super custom, long-term ownership. Yes, the elevator is an eclectic feature, but that’s not even in the top five aspects of note. 800nm range but food storage capacity for much longer at sea. 32kn top speed. Satellite on aft upper deck, retrofit perhaps, but shorter height advantages.
But what I really see is something entirely different. If you are open to it, you can feel how a vessel, or place, was lived in. That’s the best way to describe it. And a remodel won’t hide it. You know the saying, if these walls could talk.. Well it’s not just a saying for some. And that ship speaks volumes to me.
Or I just have an overactive imagination. Either way, the story I see is sordid, grim and sad, but sprinkled with moments of joy. It’s a deep feeling, touching, and mean at the same time. This ship gives me a bad feeling, but an intriguing one, and that’s why it’s my pick of 2019.
Man, if i had the time i would completely cut up the walkthrough video and dub over the narration with my vision of the vessels past life. Oh man that would be dark. Mabey at some point I’ll have the time. With your permission of course. :-)
HL
32 knots!
I like the separate dining area. Seems almost all boats have the dining area and saloon together, I prefer it this way instead. Eclectic choice of cabins. Rare to see a single cabin. I can see why the main deck cabin isn't the master, as the deckhead plunges down sharply. The master head is ginormous and the big bathtub is most welcome. The lift seems to be an owner only perk since guests can't use it to access their cabins below. Interesting choice that.
I'm not keen on the plastic fantastic handrails and interior stairs (what are stairs called on a boat again? I know a corridor is called a companionway). Maybe they light up at night though and look disco cool. Saves weight too I guess.
Nice to see a full workshop area in the engineering spaces. Very cool to have a flybridge helm on a boat this size (you're miles in the air above everything) although teak would be nice up there. The bridge is a good hangout spot too; two sofas and a fridge.
All in all, a very worthy superyacht.
I didn’t see any wheel on the upper deck. Washer n dryer abit hard to get too
The owner really loved counter tops ;) I've never seen so many counters on a yacht. It strikes me as not a well thought out design. A lot of good ideas in odd places. The engine room access, the lift to the bathroom (great if you are just the owner), crawl spaces with washing machines and a very basic galley. Just very odd. Thanks for sharing. Your videos are fab!
That's the only place a lift could go and reach all decks, so if you need to install a lift, that's why it goes there.
@@AQUAHOLIC thank you. :)
I have almost all ( well a lot anyway) your video's on the Yachting world, a huge fan of yours, so a massive thank you for your coverage of some of the most beautiful and interesting Yachts out there. Of all the Yachts I've seen you cover, this yacht just took my breath away with is old school layout (ship design) and modern conveniences if I'm saying this correctly. if one had the kind of wealth it would take to own and run such a glorious yacht this would be the one I would choose. Thank you again for the wonderful work you do in covering the yachting world as only the special way you do, informative with graces and dignity.
The Yacht is loaded with lots of nice features without feeling cramped. My concerns are the washer and dryer are in an impractical location, and when coming up from the engine room your shoes better be clean before stepping onto the carpet. Maybe the lift should be converted into a washer/dryer space. Oh, and what size are the fuel, fresh water and gray/black water tanks?
I have a muscular dystrophy I can walk but only on flat ground and I can’t do stairs some of the boats I could manage just staying on the main deck this one is perfect for accessing all areas
The lift on this boat is a really good feature for handicapped or elderly people.
Yes, I'm agreeing with so many of the comments. Here's my question - how does the Engineer get from the crew quarters and into the engine room without interacting with the carpets, door handles or people? Secret passage in the bilge? Could this be why the previous owner is selling so low? No kidding. As a former maritime engineer, no matter how hard "we" tried the smell of petroleum and the residue of internal combustion is always tracked around. Only way is a changing / shower room in the area.
Thank you, Nick, for sharing...
This is fast becoming my favourite UA-cam channel. Well done!
Good to hear, thank you! :)
Recently “discovered” your channel and love indulging myself in the totally unrealistic potential of owning such a beautiful boat and the lifestyle associated with it. I guess that’s what motivates us. Are you looking to review a Wider 150 or 165 anytime soon? Keep up the good work.
as i and most of his viewers........
Think that was the largest bathroom I've ever seen on a private yacht to date! 😳😳😳
So much potential! Biggest master ensuite I've seen. The way the carpet snaps makes it look dirty on the video. Love the entertainment areas, very welcoming and warm.
No cabin for the captain? Washing machines look tricky to access.
An elevator on this size is rare, the original owner clearly had a specific need, that maindeck VIP should be the Master!
9:05 There is a Turkish language warning sign on the entrance to the engine room. So possibly the ship had a Turkish owner.
yeah i realized same think and suprized a lot to see my native language in aquaholic video :D
@@furkanbicer154 bende şaşırdım 😂
Working in Canne, France. Beautiful weather and impressive ships. What a life mate!
How the heck did they get a generator and washer + dryer in that tiny space?!? 10:28
"Well Jim the deckhand you drew the short straw and now you have to crawl into that tunnel and do all of the laundry today on your hands and knees"
mega claustrophobic and inconvenient tho
With a good running start and a lot of swearing is my guess!
@@Kennethah81 Hahaha! Looks like they woul have had to take the whole things apart and reassemble inside... Yikes...
They seem to have a fridge obsession where you could fit laundrette facilities - maybe the boat is so clean it hardly goes anywhere which would explain the crawl space to the laundry facility. Don’t get me started on the tiny shower in the master cabin, or the lift into the bathroom while in use conundrums - you pay your money and have it as you want I guess
The poor crew member that has to do the washing.
You'd have to be an oompa loompa in order to get back there to do laundry.
I would prefer to think that those are spare units or in storage or something. They seem completely inaccessible for use. A bit of a joke really.
I did it 6000 for 10 weeks
@@josefigueroa1043 Dollars?
@@peterjonas1545 didn't see any others ....
What a strange boat, no crew mess, main staircase that goes to the wheelhouse washing machines tucked away in a craw in engineering space and the master suite with only small portlights. Apart from the massive engines, it has very little going for it..
Have to agree with this completely, the washing machine location made me guffaw out loud!
I didn't see captain's cabin anywhere either.
Apart from replacing the bright blue carpet, this is almost exactly the interior the boat was launched with in 2000 when it was known as Liselott. Crew spaces are ridiculous, imagine long term living aboard, trying to care for 9 guests with no mess area, no captains cabin, and then crawling on your hands and knees dragging the washing out of a crawl space... your crew are going to love you should you buy this relic ;)
Rob Spears When I saw the entryway I thought it was just emergency access to a mechanical area that rarely needed serviced. Definitely wasn't expecting a washer and dryer to be tucked down there.
Another great video Nick. Fabulous Job Sir!!
Great price even if it is 19 years old. I guess the running costs haven't depreciated as much though!! Another quality video, Nick.
Great refit. The on deck V.I.P. ought to be a real crowd pleaser.
I love how light and airy it iss. I am sick of the dark and wood all the time.
Another excellent tour to a very competitive (price) yacht, in a great condition, that also give us an idea of how is the market.
Great video and, as ever, really good presentation by Nick. Enthousiasm, authenticity and professionalism rolled into one! Not sure about this vessels' interiour choices. The shiny gold and transparent elements to me make it look a bit like a toy Barbie-boat from the 80's. But that's just an opinion of someone who couldn't even afford one of the pillows on one of the beds of this boat.
Raise your hand if youre an aquaholic!

Do I put my hand down? As I’m from down under! Love from the beautiful Blue mountains in Australia 🇦🇺

Sohail Sayeed 🙌🏻
Watching this channel has made me realise two things: My taste and 90% of boat designers are not even in the same ballpark. And I don't understand pricing at all.
Im watching 500k euro boats and 1.5m euro boats pretty much be similar in most ways. Then you jump to this and it seems SO much larger. But not that much smaller than like a 5-10m boat.
Also even on the smaller boats i'd rather have a jacuzzi than a sunbathing spot. Also I don't even get why the boats have like room for 01220120 people to sunbathe/sit around when the boat can only host like 10 guests.
This yacht is 20 years old, that's why it's so 'cheap' in comparison
because theyre vanity products
Agree 500%. Especially with the design critique and the too many places to sit issue. I tend to spend half the videos imagining how I could either redecorate or else turn various sitting areas into other types of spaces: home offices, gyms, art spaces... with these bigger yachts I tend to run out of ideas before the boat runs out of spare seating areas
Well about sunbathing areas in excess of 'carrying capacity' I have an explanation for it (I am not a yacht owner, nor ever been on one): not every guest who spends some time during the day on your boat is invited for a sleepover... and if you are anchored and the sun wanders it is probably easier if you move your tanning session from bow to stern rather then raising anchor reposition the boat and anchor again, just to repeat the process in 6 or so hours... just my 2 cents of wisdom... imagine you have a garden party... you can host a dozen or a score people for the BBQ but would be hardpressed to offer accommodation for half of them...
But not that much smaller than like a 5-10m boat... did you mean 50 to 100 because this yacht is 35 Meters not feet
Really like the saloon and the layout, plus the light airy feeling. Love the lift! Great tour as always and love to see the sunshine in cold grey Blighty.
Richie you are so busted
It's called Blightys in the UK
But there is like nothing in the saloon? Did I miss something?
WHY WOULD YOU PUT THE WHASHING MACHINE THERE ...why why why
Washer & dryer couldn’t be any more inconvenient.
"Would you like to star in the next Indiana Jones movie?'"
Sure they could. Put them up front inside the chain locker.
Did knowbody else notice that the ensuite of the second guest room was gutted and left a mess that's why he walked out so fast and even barely showed the rest after that so I'm sure this boat has alot to fix still but besides that its definitely a beauty for its age and a great deal for the money it's just a prime example of how much these boats changed over the years, which makes me anxious to see what yachts will look like in the years to come nice tour Nick I love how you give such a broad range of different types of boats lately Thanks
It's really nice to see a different manufacturer and how they do things. Love the colours and finishing on this one, a real beauty! And those transparent stairs. Not to mention an elevator on a boat like this, wow. The only thing I found a bit odd is that the washer/dryer doesn't seem very easily accessible. It seems you practically need to crawl to it.
My thoughts too considering the space on this yacht
definitely a unique boat. Never saw a lift that goes directly to the bathroom before.
Don's Decorative Pillow Review: They refitted it in 2017, but they didn't refit the pillows. There are barely any pillows I would even call "decorative". Cabin #4 had some vaguely "decorative" pillows, but even that's a stretch. C-.
Donald Johnston bruh, fuck you and your fucking pillows. Wanker!!
Having binge watched just to catch up, I must say that while the level of detail you go into is for the most part excellent, there's one vital detail that you tend to overlook, and that is water.
How much is carried, id there a water-maker on board, now that information would fully complete your tours.
Whinge over keep on producing, because one day I'm going to follow up on one.
Wow lovely ship there nick, am I correct in saying you may have missed a great little touch aboard that ship, the hand rails through out the decks and stair cases are back lit, I guess at night they would provide a lovely feature and great safety aboard. Very nice nick....
This is the first disabled enabled yacht I have ever seen having that lift.
The glass stairways are a good idea because they don’t hinder the flow of light.
Nice yacht for that price for sure! But that elevator (lift) into the master bathroom seems weird as hell... I imagine someone accidentally taking it down right as you're taking a 💩. LOL
Nick has answered a question I was almost afraid to ask - how would my disabled - wheel-chair bound wife manage if I could afford one of these super yachts. This is the very first yacht that I have ever seen that could be the answer with the built-in elevators. Thank you Nick - much appreciated information.
the inerior designer in 2017 .... " remember miami vice ? " .... " hold my latte " ....
With the lift and the single cabin next to the master it seems like a boat setup for a disabled owner with a nurse. Interior style is a little dated with the gold and clear railings but it looks like a comfortable boat
Aquaholic... if you ever get the opportunity, please do a tour of the Couach 5000 Fly (La Pellegrina or Belongers)!? I have only seen computer generated renderings of the interior of these ships; it would be nice to see some live footage! Thanks in advance...
The lift and the decor choice probably indicative of the owners age more than anything else.
My
Still a touch of class IMO
Fantastic tour yet again, I love this boat, it’s a great looking piece of art with an old school feel to it, yet it doesn’t seem of look dated in any way. You always bring great content and I’m looking forward to all your new videos and projects! One thing though, if you can ever make it to Monaco or New York, there are some absolutely massive super yachts I’d love to see you bring to UA-cam if you ever get the chance, it’s not too often we get to see the insides of those giant boats.
Thank you. I was at the Monaco Yacht Show and there are a couple of yachts from that show on my channel.
Hi Nick. Thats an unusual interior. Very white and bright. The lift on aboat this size . . . Different and a glass staircase. Laundry in a crawl space. Great video.
That is a beautiful boat. Thanks for the tour Nick.
I love these Yachts that actually have a couple desks
“Right people, Nick is coming onboard today so could we have a little tidy up and put the dishes away please?”
“Oh and if we could all step off for 20 minutes that would be great too!”
Nice decor and best design of crew cabins I have seen so far
wow, it is the odd one out i would say but what an astonishing yacht. Loved this tour!
Under 2.5 million with a lift. Even though it 2000 yaght with a 2017 refit. It's got so much for the price. If they closed the bridge deck off, it could be a tri-deck. Not a very big space, but big enough, esp as the upper deck has it's own upper helm, giving plenty of space. Beautiful boat. Still can't believe a lift access for that money. One lucky owner.
Watching this again, that washer & dryer could _easily_ be moved to the adjacent workshop and give the crew some dignity when doing the laundry. There's a fridge in the workshop which would have to go and stack the washer & dryer in its place. First thing I would do.
I'd also get some teak, a seat and a nice stainless steel wheel to the helm topside. And scrap all the grey carpets and go for grey teak throughout the interior. Would look very cool.
I think Aquaholic missed other laundry facilities. The machines in engine room would be for soiled boiler suits. You don't wash engineers oily PPE and then put the owners wife's Gucci blouses in.
@@Irishandtired good point
I assume there's a way to prevent the lift from stopping on the lower deck, the door is between the bedroom and the bathroom...
Very spacious. I noticed a lot of cupboard space on the main deck down each side.
Also, I assume with all the cupboard space in the en-suite master, that doubled up as a walk-in wardrobe?
On the upper helm, it looked like it only had the single function of docking/undocking in a tight space and maybe being lookout post for whale watching or something.
Finally, when you walked back from the bow of the ship, did I notice a much larger sun bathing ares higher up? (Edit: Just looked again, yes, as seen from the front)
As usual, another good video Nick, thank you.
Thank for great job, Aquaholic.
I love the look of this beautiful yacht but I’m not sure about the interior design seems like this the interior was made in the 80s
What a boat! That lift is wonderful for disabled or elderly guests, parents or owners. Absolutely stunning light interior. Wow!
Her age certainly shows in parts of her layout (God help the poor sod doing the laundry...) but she has the looks of the boat belonging to a Bond-villain and pure monsters for engines so I think I could manage to live with that! :) The bridge was, however, superior to many newer yachts. Sure, far less space for screens, but the visibility with those huuuge windows must be amazing compared to the pillbox that is pretending to be a bridge on many more modern yachts.
If I were the captain of that thing, I'd beg the owner for a wheel, some electronics and a chair on the top driving position and never ever get down from there again. :D
And as always, excellent video! Keep 'em coming and we'll keep watching! 😁
Stuff the captain, as the owner I'd be up there all the time at the wheel with a cigar
The glass steps are awesome
Nice tour. Thanks a lot again !
But one question, i am wondering about long time now, pls: what brings the range per speed ... if i dont know the fuel tank capacity ? I would be more interested kn the "max range at 22 mph is 600 nm with .... liters of fuel". I would be more interested in a bot with a bit less speed and double of range with same fuel capacity.
You'll usually double (or even triple) the range by travelling at displacement speeds rather than going fast on this type of boat.
@@AQUAHOLIC i miswrote my question a bit. Sorry. What i want to know during most of your tours is the capacity of the fuel tanks ... ergo: how much costs "all in pls" for the boats.
@@futhaiter366 I always put a link in the description for the dealer or broker web site, you'll normally find all the technical info there. :)
Seems very cheap for the size and features. Are we missing something?
nbookie 19 years old, perhaps?
@@mitchmillett9214 still a relevant design and well cared for. Would need a full interior update for living areas to bring top value but 4 million all in and it seems like a vessel worth 50% or more than that.
nbookie Problem is the yacht is 19 years old. That’s engines, seals, water filtration systems, electronics, plumbing.....
Many of these areas are not economically viable to update. I’m not saying there is anything wrong with that, but you can’t bring a 20 year old yacht up to date with its peers of today.
For me, the styling is just too dated and things have moved on too far. I would rather a newer, smaller yacht from Princess. But each to their own.
The elevator into the master bathroom is a major horror though.
Carpets on a boat = mold and mildew. This boat looks worn out. Two thumbs down.
@@nbookie the thing is even though the purchase price is this low, maintenance is still going to be for a yacht of this size. So you're looking at well over a million dollars a year
9:55 WOW! The size of those turbos!
Or someone coming out and saying: "I'd give it a couple of minutes if I was you".
Social spaces look good (maybe I little outdated) but some weird layout. Washer and dryer location? crew accommodations only way out is thru the guest area? elevator at the lower deck opens into the main cabin bathroom? I'm going to have to pass on this one
Nice tour! Please tell me there is a better way to gain access to the laundry facilities than crawling through the engine room. Bravo!
Beautiful ship. Must have a lift on a super yacht with three levels. I was a bit surprised to see that they had a washer and dryer in what I would consider a crawl space. A bit perplexing. Perhaps an afterthought?
Tons of space and stylish decor.
That is a LOT of real estate for 2.5M. Those engines are massive. I would hate to be in charge of laundry on that yacht though , looks like nothing more than crawl space in there. Great video as always Nick. Cheers (looking forward to the next door Princess video)
First thing i'd do is have steering and captain's chair installed up on the top deck. Got to have my fly bridge. ( Owner / operator) The lift is nice as well, my knees would get tired of those stairs real fast. Lol The 2 opposing workbenches are a nice touch as well to maintain and fix things while you're out at sea
The location of the laundry facilities is just a bit wonky....
Nick, what a beautiful craft, so elegant, and 32 knots! WOW!
A question I have been meaning to ask is, why do some boats have a bell close to the anchor system?
Keep safe.

All that space and that's where they put the washer and dryer LoL 😂
Great video as always! I loved the lift and the upper sun deck.
Not my favourite interior but very spacious indeed. Another excellent tour! Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it
Well this one became my favorite. It has a lab with tools and stuff Like an engeneering place! Awsome
I liked the giant axe (ax for the Americans) in case you have to break your way out of below decks....? I'm not really sure what its purpose is since you wouldn't really have room to swing it in the boat lol possibly for chopping firewood on beaches?
@@Nilboggen The axe (ax) is so you can clear your way to the laundry machines after the owner has thrown a painting party
I kinda like how the interior is deliberately not boaty. Just look like a regular rooms
@cornskid a lightweight interior ;-)
“Regular rooms” if you live in a tacky mid-90s McMansion. Of the vids I’ve seen on AH’s channel, this is by far the ugliest interior. The gold trim and plexiglass finishes are just awful.
Great video as always. It’s odd though, everything seemed a little more “cramped” that other yachts of the same size that you have reviewed, perhaps the lift steals more space than you think. It always confuses me (not hard!) where you stick the captain and engineer in such small crew areas. Maybe the stewards sleep two to a bed .... they have to be tiny if you want to get any washing done!!!
Much better than my house - what a great design!! Terrific video thank you 👍
Great layout..love the lift..superb view of Cannes harbour..great boat..top video
Nice clean vessel. Thanks for the tour Nick.
That's some boat .and those engines fantastic...ps great video...cheers Phil
