Jokes aside, thank you for your brilliant tours. A truest professional contribution to the UA-cam content!
Also... “a lot of ground to cover”
Superb
Awesome
Not to mention “great little”...
Proper little ship
This reviewer is simply the best in reviewing yachts. What a pleasure to listen to.
You're very kind :)
Yes I agree
Aquaholic makes for easy viewing and listening because you really don't need a degree in mechanical and electrical engineering to appreciate the tour. Merely an interest in all the possible options for enjoying life on the water.
I got majorly anxious when he walked into everyone just sat there, it felt like we all had just walked in and started disturbing them
Bro
Most of them looked like shonky car salesmen...
He said they knew we were all coming; one of the chaps was boss of Nordhavn Its a brill promo, and thorough. Lots of inlaid cabinet-making and class!
For that price i Hope i get the Humans too!
@@izziebon the boss is oblivious. That totally turned me off. He should have made an effort. this was tantamount to walking into some janky used car sales office. the 'boss' has less capacity for self reflection than dracula. NOT a good look!
Hands down this is the best engine room I’ve ever seen.
Look at Lady Sheridan, Mine Games, Cloud 9, etc.
NO CAP
Obviously a smaller class of ship, but I like the Allseas 92's engine room.
no, it could've been so much better ie it seems very cramped especially since there's a separate side passage way stealing necessary space from the engine room. it would've benefitted so much having the E/room going from either side & having a central walk-way leading to the rear of the boat, that would've given much needed space to access components within the E/room.
I'm also saying this as the original buyer who had a independent inspection carried out on the boat also noted access to components for routine maintenance an issue due to machinery tightly packed together. This is one of the reason's the original buyer actually begun legal proceedings with Nordhavn & yes years later its out of his hands up for sale etc.. go search utube for multiple legal recordings covering the case & you'll see yourself.
overall its a nice boat but it has got some poor design floors/choices the above being one of them, then having 2 bathrooms in the master suit "wtf" anyway the engine room really needs more space for easy access... not to mention cables & pipework requires labelling (another fault found) as again knowing what each cable & pipe does on this actual boat is pretty difficult due to the lack of labels.... which is odd for Nordhavn.
@@malp6280 The engine room is full beam on the upper level. The passageway you're referring to is port side of the aft staterooms taking you aft to the lazarrette. Also, to keep a fire boundary I also would of designed the engine room the same way. I have seen the prints for all the decks.
The legal problems were the guy couldn't afford the taxes on the boat. It was seized almost immediately after delivery to the boathouse. Customs came over and he couldn't pay the import fees. The lawsuit was about trying to say he never took delivery of the boat so Nordhavn would be responsible for the taxes. That's why all the nitpicking every lil detail or flaw to say the boat was not delivered satisfactory. Everything would of gotten taken care of, it was a delivery shakedown cruise. You take delivery and make a punch list for the builder and it gets fixed after a 30 to 60 day shakedown. This is nothing new in super/mega yachts.
What I don't know how the buyers math was so far off? As he received a credit for the taxes paid on his last boat he traded in. All that was due was the difference between his trade and purchase price. He knew the taxes were due. It's embarrassing in my opinion to try to blame Nordhavn when he clearly didn't have the money to buy the boat.
The ladies all get weak at the knees when Nick mentions Miele and thrust controllers.
Remarkable. Simply the best boat reviews on UA-cam. No one else is even close. Smooth camera handling, decent pacing, no music distraction, and super knowledgeable commentary.
You're very kind 🙂
Totally agree.
Nice to see they have the grain of the wood going in the correct up and down direction
Not even 100k subscribers and you're getting VIP treatment and allowed to do full tours with no interference! Waaaaay to go!
Well it's not really how many subscribers which matter, but how many are actually on the market for such a boat, I guess.
Jean Roch if only 1% want a boat and then only 1 or 2 people buy one it would still be worth it for the companies probably.
And 4 months later, he's at 184,000 subscribers. :)
@@bosgaurus1 now 237k
I love it when the captain gets his own cabin separate from the crew!
Always liked a Nordhaven but that is just insane.No wonder you had a smile on your face getting on there.Brilliant job thanks for sharing.
The way Nick is able to transport us into the entire lifestyle of yachting is excellent. Great review.
Nice one! Love the fact that the designers clearly had some good thoughts about the crew. Finally a boat where the crew does not have to live like animals.
It'd be worth every penny just to play Hide and Seek on this boat. I swear i'm an adult.
In body, maybe. Not like me. I'm the real adult here.
By the way, you're it!!!
(Runs off giggling...)
First place I'd hide is at 14:13 :) Awesome storage/hiding spot.
@@tecwzrd Too obvious. First place he'll look. I'm hiding behind that door in the hallway he didn't open.
@@realitycheck3363 In the crew galley? That just leads to one of the guest rooms, you'll be totally exposed!
I’d be under the dining room table hanging on...like in “Matilda”
Super yacht, super tour! This might be the best yacht I have seen yet. EVERYTHING was big! Engine room, crew area, VIP cabins, even the extra cabins. Amazing! This might be the best boat yet!
Great boat, good crew areas with good space and facilities. The owner/passengers have pure indulgence. Nicks tour was his normal excited commentry , great tour, thanks.
The yacht is just lovely and gorgeous inside! Everthing just feels cosy . I imagine myself walking around on this ship during the evening when the windows are covered and all the lights are on inside. The mastercabine is also beautiful and not just a big bed in the middle of the room.
One of your best yacht tours so far. Very thorough and comprehensive. And what a boat, the biggest Nordhavn yet.
I really appreciate that you go into the engine rooms etc and talk about all the mechanicals
The 120 definitely seems to be the adult in the room. Crew and Captain accommadations on the boat are really magnificent as compared to boats twice three and four times their size.
Truly a staggering vessel by all means. Range, comfort, safety, and adventure. Everything a yacht needs to satisfy its adventurer. I replaced the Princess X95 with this yacht. Not only because it has 3 times the range of a Princess X95 but because it can go through rough waters and stay comfortable. This yacht is so beautiful and my style that when I get it, I'm just gonna spend an hour in silence admiring it. I think I would never fall in love with this yacht if not for you. Thanks for the great vid Nick!
Amazing! You can see the care the crew have taken in looking after every inch of her. Not only the public areas but wow! That engine room!! Launched in 2014 & it’s still surgically clean!
Cant wait to see the Nordhavn 140, hope you do a tour of that one when it comes out. Love you work, keep it up. Hopefully owning one soon
I love Nordhavn yachts... and I love these long, detailed tours. Great job Nick!
Thanks so much Nick! I really appreciate your affection for boats.
An absolutely stunning boat. really love the interior - not too old school, not too modern, just right!
Amazing. Ten tours like that and you'd get fit. All those stairs! The ironing board was good, you know, for when you have more pressing matters to deal with.
Wow, that boat is huge. I was lost most of the time. But beautiful boat and excellent video as always. Thanks for making videos and welcome to America
I spent three years as a radio/navigator of a 120' research vessel and the engine room/work space sounds brought me back. I loved life at sea; away from most everything. Such a unique feeling. I'll bet you spent some time planning your tour route; it was seamless. You are the best at video yacht tours on UA-cam. Thank you.
I love how knowledgeable you are. Like you've spent hours looking at the set up and the specs. Planning your route to explore it. You're brilliant at this!
Thank you! :)
I noticed the same. His flow isn't random.
OMG I love that Engine Room. Navy mechanic and we could only wish we had an engine room that clean and tidy. Love this boat, love the content and love Aquaholic. Well done my friend, well done indeed.
Hands down the most spectacular ship you've featured to date. What an absolutely brilliant design, and what a truly vast ship. I cannot believe just how huge the interior space is.
Not a ship...Its a yacht or boat.
What a wonderful ship. As always, a great tour. You set the standard Nick. The engine room blew me away. All of the accommodations are great. I think however, for me, it is the more than adequate crew area. The crew live here, for the most part. There is no reason they should be housed like cord wood. I have absolutely no experience in this area. I do have experience in customer relations. I worked for twenty years in Las Vegas Nevada. Your employees determine your success. A happy worker is a must. I think the owner or this ship is very smart. Thanks Nick, for letting me babble on, Jerry
The crew mess area is nicer than some guest accommodations you've shown.
Top job Nick, respect. Holding up well for a 6-year-old boat.
probably hardly used i'm guessing.
I believe there was a big argument over tax and finance when it was delivered to the customer in Canada from China. I'm not sure he ever got to use it, I love Nordhavn boats but I do find their interiors just too woody for my liking.
@@nothingsurprisesmeanymore It was nothing to do with tax and finance as far as I'm aware. There was a court case and it's on UA-cam.
@Asim Ayyubi No the builders cocked up. Read the surveys.
I've been monitored this N120 M/Y Aurora since her delivery date back in 2014 from Hong Kong to Canada. I hope that I could find a great video to explore her in details. Well thank you Nick for doing this.
Dhany Bangert +1
Yet this is the exact same yacht that was at the heart of that dispute between Nordhavn and Gianciollo(?) about fit and finish on delivery.
Where the owner signed and accepted delivery then refused final payment due to "problems" that were present at delivery.
Me too
Magnificent. I was totally lost on the tour. So many ins and outs and various stairwells. Like a little ocean liner.
Ok watched this video at least 2 or 3 times and have decided that this is the greatest boat ever made to date! I am just amazed at the space on this boat! From the crew area to engine room its UNBELIEVABLE. Best yacht ever!
Ha ha, 1 year later... and STILL the best yacht I have ever seen!
I agree totally 100%.
What makes your tour videos the best are the one long continuous shot. You always know where you are and what your orientation is. It gives you a real idea of the layout of the boat.
Now that is a boat..what a stunner..real ship feel with all that wood..lots of thought gone into it
The engine room is just amazing... I was expecting something impressive because its a Nordhavn, but I didn't expect that! Just spectacular!
What a treat!!! Nordhvn is the ONE boat designer that keeps on point with the seafairing way of things. The wood is a reminder that you're on a bonified vessel, as opposed to an apartment set on a hull. Their nack for quiet opulence is large part of its sweet beauty.
There have been several walkthroughs of this N120 and none of which compares to yours Nick. Well done chap!!!
Nick, always look forward to seeing your tours. Your skills and preparation show your passion for the best of water life. No other presenter ever makes a viewer feel like they are right along side as the tour progresses but you make us feel like we are right there on the ships with you
for a personal walk through. As always, well done. Very proud to see your channel progression and to see you getting to enjoy your labours. Cheers.
Stunningly beautiful interior with the best practical use of space I have seen so far. What incredible engineering and design. Just an amazing yacht.
I ❤️ how the Owner & his Crew went All Out for this Video. They provided Transport, meals & the Opportunity to Enjoy the Fun...Well done 💯💯💯👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Oh Nick I've been meaning to say thank you so much for always getting straight to the point at the start of your videos. We don't first have to sit or skip through ten minutes of shout outs and reminders to "Hit that subscribe button" blah blah blah haha. It's such a treat, your approach is really appreciated.
As all Nordhavns, a beautiful boat (slash ship). Absolutely unaffordable to purchase, run or maintain, but I'm not watching to make a final purchase decision, so that's okay. Love the way you narrate your videos. So calm, so detailed. Thanks for this tour!
Nothing better than a 20 minute plus video that is unedited and awesome! Very nice work!
Glad you enjoyed it!
The woodwork is exceptional. What a gorgeous ship!
It's got a bloody engineering deck! An engineering deck on a yacht! Words fail me so this will have to suffice: It's bloody amazing! Love every tiny bit of it!
I’m gonna be honest, I love watching your videos because it makes me want to strive harder so one day I can afford a those boats (the smaller ones ofcourse) brilliant Nick!
Gorgeous interior. This is pretty much exactly what I'd look for in a boat. That engine room is amazing. Thanks for the video!
Been avoiding watching this video because this ship is beyond my dreams.This model is amazing. I could only imagine what it would be like to own this home one day. Nordhavn is the best.
Saw Nordhavn and clicked like before I watched! The only thing that would make me click like faster is Palmer Johnson!
Edit: Having now watched, this is the best boat you have ever done. What a gem.
Thank you. Been wanting to see the 120 for a few years.
Awesome surprise, as usual 👍
The Princess/Sunseekers are really nice and all, but this ship is simply perfection
Nordhavn builds the most solid yachts I have ever seen and Aquaholic does the best tour of anything that floats!
Yep very clever design to allow all of that dedicated crew routing. Thanks Nick.
I've been waiting since the Nordhavn 60 seven months ago. Wow Nick, this completely exceeded my expectations. Worth every penny. It ticks all the boxes. Captain cabin behind the wheel house, plenty of very nice crew space, and a complete Tardis effect. If I were on board, I would take the cabin with the bathtub that has the shower fixture in it. That way, I could fill the bathtub half way up with water, turn the shower on and pretend I'm in a submarine thats been hit. Z
Love the videos, for some reason I find it so relaxing to watch these yacht tours. Great content 👍🏻
Glad you like them!
There is so much to this boat! Defenetly the best
Super yacht I have ever seen
The dream. If I owned something like this it would be my full time house. I wouldn’t bother with anything more than an apartment on land.
same here, unfo I am too short on cash to make this come true
@@squishysqish7974 not sure what you meant to say. It sounded like your only achievement thus far in your life is being born into a rich family. News flash: this is not an achievement it is a coincidence.
Squishy Sqish - You are just an asshat.
@@squishysqish7974 I am not, believe me. Wealth that you haven't earned by yourself is worth nothing... and in some ways I think I am richer than you are.
@@squishysqish7974 you realize that your only argument in this exchange so far is that I am poor in your eyes. Guess what: all I own is mine. Not my daddy's and not the bank's. You to the contrary seem to own nothing.... you keep telling that it is your dad's money and his yacht. Which means you and I own the same amount of yachts: zero. And it shows also that all the money in the world cannot buy character or manners. You are apparently living from someone else's pockets. Like a social welfare case. Enjoy your super rich live; I do not want to swap with you and this is god's honest truth.
This guy LOVES his boats, and it shows. Nick is the definition of turning your passion into a business. Congrats on all the success so far, been following since 8k subs. Your tours are second to none
Best tour yet good job. I like how you showed all the mechanical equipment and how serviceable they were.
Wow now that's a ship worthy of traveling the world in!!! That engine room is insane for a 120 foot boat its compared to one of 200 feet or bigger I'd say and the view from both helms is the best I've ever seen in any yacht, what a great tour Nick, showed us every inch of this massive vessel as if we were there with you thank you so much this thing is perfect in every way truly amazing
WHAT DO I THINK OF IT? WWWWOOOOOOWWWW That is an incredible SHIP, not a yacht, not a boat, it is a SHIP.
Yea, it will suffice. I can use it as a tender for my yacht. You know, so people arrive at the yacht well rested etc. Then park it in my yacht's tender garage, and off we go for the real cruise...
Please, don't wake me up!! I'm enjoying my dream here!! Shhhttt!!!
I have become incredibly jaded and snobby watching this channel. Oh no an 80 foot yacht will not do! it must be at least 120. Ha ha. Kidding Nordhavn 45 to 63 is perfect size for owner operator.
@@gmcjetpilot Boats get so dirty underway, and they rot if you don't clean them. A 30' boat is a pain enough to clean, I'd definitely need full time crew for a 120.
@@andrew20195 I agree. I'm going to staff my yacht with super models... Ha ha. 120 ft boat crew is a Captain (liscenced req), engineer (liscenced req), 1st mate (knowledge experience), Steward/ess, Deck hand, and Chef would be a min.
It's a beautiful home.
That’s a wonderful tour Nick,, that’s immaculate for a 2014 , that’s a great example of how to service and maintain a super yacht,hopefully you aren’t overwhelmed by the situation with all the yachts 😂😂😂⚓️👌🏻😎👍🏻🍺
Well done! I watched the video of this ship on it's delivery from Xiamen, China to Vancouver, Canada, from 2014. It is well worth your time. They experienced some heavy seas enroute and the ship performed admirably. But the only interior shots were brief. So it was nice to see the interior in all it's glory.
Carl look up this same boat after it was delivered and the horrendous amount of faults. And the interviews with those concerned for the court case.
Nick is the best in the business! Love this guy and his content!
You're very kind 🙂
What a fantastic, outstanding yacht!! Thank you for showing the tour of this beauty. For a moment I was getting lost for going through all the rooms and I thought I was going to get sea sick for a second lol. Easy to get lost in there and take a while to find your way out. If I had the money to buy a yacht, it would definitely be absolutely nothing but a Nordhavn!!!
" We have a lot of ground to cover all of it fantastic!" never a truer word, what a beautiful vessel. For me the only thing missing is mention of the lack of a wheel in the wheelhouse, I'm guessing it's a thing nowadays but it's the first boat review I've seen from you without a wheel so probably worth mentioning. But all in all another great video...
Most new ships use that instead of the usual large wheel.
i'll take it....... dont worry about gift wraping it. seriously i have watched this must be 20 times already. you have done a great job showing this boat off. one suggestion if i may, when you do these larger vessels i would be happier to see longer videos. there were a lot of areas and doors you never opened. you could double the length of this video and it would not get boring. once again thank you for all your efforts. keep em coming. kindest regards
Wow this is really taking the "little ship" ethos to another level! What a impressive and comprehensive design. Great tour as always!
Loving the layout and the access to everything.
Of all the yachts you have featured on your channel this is my absolute favourite, by a country mile. What a truly beautiful boat. And to see crew accommodations like that almost makes me want to sign on (I can be a fender or something). Attention to detail, perfect. Engine room, warms my mechanic heart. Fantastic boat. Excellent presentation Nick, Cheers
P.S what bellend pressed the dislike button?
It always amazes me how much content and space Nordhavn makes of ships!!!
Just watched this one again and what a fantastic boat she is with such a fantastic range too. This blows me away.
Sell the house, I’d happily live on this beauty
That yatch just kept going on and on. Man that was awesome!
Nick you have out done yourself with this tour!! No doubt your professionalism gets you access to these beauties. Outstanding content mate
Thank you 🙂
The woodwork and cabinetry are so beautiful as is everything else. This decor is exactly the style I would just love. I’m just not interested in the yachts that are super modern but you would never know you were on a yacht. Yachts with interiors that could be identical to a Miami luxury condo just do nothing for me.
I’m a big fan of Bering yachts, but I think I’m now an equally a fan of Nordhaven. This yacht is more than a person like me would know what to do with, having no yachting experience. I must say, I’m hooked on these Explorer yachts, they’re so much like tiny ships, capable of taking you right around the world and built for the open sea. So much more exciting than fancy fibreglass yachts that are more like floating party rooms that rarely go anywhere.
This is an amazing yacht. The layout is so complex and very functional. The crew cabin area is far nicer than any that I’ve seen before and the engine room is one of the nicest I’ve ever seen. I need to watch this video again. 😅👍
This is by far the best yaucht on your channel .
Excellent review......
This has to be the nicest boat on the channel so far
This boat is one of the finest yachts I think I've ever seen for its class, and I've seen a lot of yachts. It is stunning in every way! I've seen some that perhaps are a bit more opulent, having more bling, like being in some designer's showroom, but this boat is both beauty and function. It is unpretentious and yet so elegant. This is the boat I would want to spend serious time aboard. The overall design is, I think, brilliant! The accessibility of every part of the boat, especially by the crew, is so well thought out. And that engine room: Wow! It is an engineer's dream. Just over-the-top wonderful in every way. Thank you, Nick, for a really fun tour!
Thank you for watching! :)
Thumbs up. I have to say that I've watched/critiqued a lot of yacht tour videos and for a 36m yacht (120') this one punches significantly above its weight. Very well laid out, the guest cabins aren't cramped (it helps that the designer didn't feel the need to force them all amidships) and the engineering spaces are incredible. On top of that it's a true tri-deck. It's actually a bit difficult to believe that this yacht is only 120' long.
This was absolutely stunning tour ever till date. I am wondering how fascinating your skill of reviewing is! Really your video gives pleasure Nick.
I'm glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Of all the boats I have seen via yours and others videos, this has to be my favorite boat. Thanks again, Nick.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Magnificent! My kind of yacht. I’ve seen a couple of tours of Aurora before but none as complete or as detailed as this one. Well done Nick! You must be chuffed having been on board this one.
Very much 🙂
13:18 "Remember your yesterdays, dream your tomorrows and LIVE your todays! Great quote.
Just watched it again. I absolutely love this yacht. What a layout!
Nordhavn has the most beautiful yachts. The classic design and build quality is just awesome
Absolutely super tour.
I didn't think you could better what you have achieved in the past, however, you've left your past 'standing' with this tour.
This is without doubt, (in my view) the BEST yacht you have ever presented.
If ever I could afford one, THIS is now top of the list, Thank you for presenting it to us.
Amazing yacht, a lot of boat for the price. As always another great review!👍
Nordhavn have just got my number 1 spot after seeing this exquisite architecture. I love the multiple passage ways.
Magnificent vessel ! Amazing interior routing. Thanks for another fantastic tour, Nick !
Glad you enjoyed it!
Ahh here it is. The video iv´e been waiting for.
Wow,from the get go a breathtaking vessel,typically Nordhavn in style and finish with exceptional attention to detail(love the cabin blinds).
Every aspect of this is carefully done with an eye for quality.
The cres quarters are magnificent and some are guest quality on other boats.
Simply the most desirable boat you have featured and perhaps your best tour yet...well done!
Nobody does tours like you! Awesome, as usual!
This kind of “ship” is just so cool. Livable luxury with just about anything you could want with real range. As always, the video is fantastic!
I’ve never reaaaaaally been a fan of Nordhavn, but this one is really nice. Also nice to see a cameo from the president of a yacht company. Also.... at first I was like “only room for 6 guests on a yacht this large? Then boom, there’s more hidden away! Loved this one
Nordhavn's interior finishes are unbelievable. Can't wait for you to do a tour of the upcoming 148.
You are the best tour guide my friend of the sweetest yachts. Thank you.
Third time watching and I find something new every time. Well done. I love a beautiful Nordhavn
