    The best presentation of an Arksen. In addition to the redundancy of important systems, the presence of passive safety systems at every step, the utility of things put before luxury makes the lackluster yacht one of the most beautiful ships ever presented and seen!

    Quite possibly my favorite Yacht that I've seen thus far. If you were to take an "off grid" property and put it on the water, this would be it, and on a serious scale. The builders of this know how to do it, and do it right!

  • @grey8ghost1
    @grey8ghost1 3 місяці тому +13

    Fantastic yacht complimented by your thoroughly enjoyable tour. What this tour says is, you have the chops to present the yacht in the best way possible, and you have earned the respect of the owners / builders to be given a 2 hour tour prior to making this video. Additionally I suspect the dozens of cutesy less serious pretend presenters would never be given access to a yacht of this caliber. Your years of hard work has put you in the pantheon of a very elite group of mariners who are invited to present these yachts. Bravo!

    The perfect all rounder, go anywhere transatlantic cruiser yacht, with an abundance of redundancy as standard built in to her hull. This is probably the best yacht you've featured on "Aquaholic " in a long time, it's an amazing concept nick. I wonder if they(arksen) will ever build a 24 metre yacht so that we can all have a chance of piloting this fantastic aluminium masterpiece nick.

    Flopper Stoppers brilliant. That is going to take some beating, will need to drop that into convo now.
    Wow 7,000 nautical miles. World cruise here I come. Just incredible. The idea of being able to fully customize the layout is a great feature. No two boats are the same interior wise. I was expecting to see more refrigeration and cold storage than we saw. I thought we would of seen a walk in one.
    Every system has back ups, the back ups have back ups. For distance this is going to take some beating.
    Thank you so much Nick for showing us around her. Every tour you bring us brightens my day . flopper stoppers and all

    The one thing that threw me was the wheel. Was I the only one expecting a big wooden wheel in the helm?
    7000 NM ! 7000 ! Holy smokes!
    What a beauty.
    Cozy not gaudy. Beautiful and tough. Just incredible. This may be my favorite of all of the ships/boats/yachts you have showed.

    An Arksen! I hoped to see one up close one day - and now I have (well second best thing really). Amazing concept and perfect execution. Sometimes you see a review of a house or a car or a yacht and think, who would spend so much on this? But not here. If I could I would happily spend 10 M pounds on it and more for what has to be the ultimate freedom machine.
    Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go re-watch this video.

    I do wiring on boats and cars etc and to just put it all on paper to be designed, every system is mind boggling! 😮
    Imagine doing the hand over to the customer….
    All I can say is I love the hard/commercial outside of it and then you go inside and it’s almost calming and soft interior welcomes you….

    I’ve had a “love it/hate it” attraction to this yacht ever since it was first announced some years back. Still do after seeing the finished product…I *want* to like this, and I generally do…but…for $10mil+, I don’t want to see weld seams and what looks like an interior from IKEA. I know it’s owner spec, but I think he went a bit overboard on “tuna trawler chic”. A lot of this, however, can be overlooked when I consider “New York to Buenos Aires with fuel left over”. Excellent tour as always!
    One question…given the range and potential time it mechanically be away from dock, can it carry enough provisions to support this?
    Thanks!

    As for this boat, as much as I love the super yachts and weekend pleasure craft, this is what really impresses me. A serious mini-ship with a more proper bridge than many supers, excellent creature comfort and facilities, a decent amount of leisure space, and surprisingly stylish, given it's no nonsense exterior finish, and almost any contingency covered.
    It had me at formal navigator station. Make it so, Lt...

    Very commercial, yet full of luxury. Amazing boat!!! My only issue, SCANNIA engines??? Not bashing SCANIA by any means, but, If you need world wide support I would choose CAT first, then MTU/VOLVO/Cummins/JD... Excellent review!!! Insane boat!!! Thx Nick!!!

    Truly a very capable and beautiful boat. The Arksen designers may not like to admit it, but it clearly draws inspiration from the pioneering designs of Steve Dashew and his FPB range of explorers.

      They are pretty silent about it, which is a shame, it's a good pedigree that would add value, but I guess they want someone else's credit.

      If by “draws inspiration from” you mean directly copy, then I agree with you. Unfortunately, this boat is not nearly as fast as the FPB’s.

    What a magnificent machine, top tier design
    That delivers incredible range and comfort.
    This has raised the technical bar for me and pushed the yachting frontier pleasantly forward. Like multiple wing stations and a passive stabilization system that does not consume power.
    I’d love to go on a Caribbean tour with this baby and maybe hit the top of South America
    Most excellent tour Nick

    What sood out to me was the single splash of color in each area, the yellow both, green sink, and the pink on the aft deck.

    Externally, it's not exactly a thing of beauty - opinions can be divisive, I know. In warmer climes, that unpainted aluminium is going to get hot.

    It's a lovely boat ruined by a lack of paint outside and some challenging colours on furniture and walls. What do I know though. The biggest boat I have owned fits in my bathtub.

      @ruk2023-- 3 місяці тому

      Indeed. The point I failed comprehensively to make with any clarity was that taste is subjective and just because I don't like it doesn't mean nobody likes it and if the owner likes it then that's all that matters.@@AQUAHOLIC

    It's almost like a "Vinson of Antarctica" without the sails. And for much more comfortable people. "Vinson" is an extreme Antarctic exploration yacht.

    Super spectacular and my kind of yacht. I don't need to have six bars doing 35 knots; I want a cozy space that will get me a quarter of the way around the planet! Thanks so much to you and Arksen for the wonderful tour!

    Sadly I've been too busy to allow time to watch, just finished £9.5 Million Explorer Yacht, really I think its absolutely perfect, great value for money, the owner has great taste, what a yacht to make a trip from St Katherine's Dock in London to say I dunno, Sydney in that beautiful country Australia with that range just three fuel stops, now that would be an expedition and a half, thank you to the owner and Aquaholic.

    At 3:30 you can see on the back of the frame, the 1958 built Brave Challenger yacht. It was built by Vosper Thornycroft and was the fastest yacht in the world at the time of its delivery.
    As always, thanks for the great review Nick!

    You knocked it out of the park with this one! Great content and very well done. Your enthusiasm for quirky and wonderful boats of all sizes and shapes make your channel so unique. As a boater, (not a yachtsman! - I run a 40' Boston Whaler in Naples, FL) I can really appreciate the technical aspects of your videos and what it takes operate larger boats.
