    An amazing tour of a wonderful vessel! We especially love the fact that the VIP and Owners cabin are pretty much equivalent.
    If, somehow, I hit the MegaMillions $600M+ jackpot this week I swear THIS VESSEL WILL BE MINE!
    Jeff, as always you do an amazing job showing these vessels to everyone. I know the editing and tech work (like the You Are Here graphic) take time and effort and I appreciate them very much.

      John: Thank you very much. The JMYS team has been on a lot of airplanes doing a lot of surveys and listings with clients. The videos are fun, but they are by no means our primary business so we don't post to a schedule like channels featuring people out cruising, we try to post when we have something new to share. Could be three weeks in a row, then nothing for two months. Thank you for hanging with me! Nordhavn is a great brand, but not the only choice, perhaps the best resale, but not everyone needs the capability of a Nordhavn for the type of cruising they want to do.

      Anthony: Great comment, thank you. She is really in wonderful condition, actively operated and carefully maintained. The purchase price always is a starting point on the spending, but I don't think there is anything missing on Island Greeter, but if there is and you need it, would probably not be too expensive to add. She is "ready to go".

    Another fabulous tour by Jeff! I've been patiently waiting (sort of) for this tour since you posted the listing on your site! As always I appreciate you including dimensions in your reviews, very helpful. This is by far the best laid out and optioned N62 I've come across. Thanks also for the look at the forward machinery spaces, something I've noticed that you focus on on other boats.

Some lucky lucky people are owning and enjoying these magnificent boats. What an absolute privilege!! God damn....Nordhavn, Kadey Krogen, Flemming.....just wonderful wonderful boats. The thing is, the people who own and often live on these boats seem to totally NOT take them for granted....they ADORE their boats and know how fortunate they are. Which is a wonderful thing.

      Stephen: The Nordhavn 62 is ocean crossing capable and shares the good rugged looks of traditional fishing trawlers, but the Ta Shing yard in Taiwan does an extraordinary job with the interior - from the gorgeous woodwork to the careful systems installations. Agree, this is a wonderful thing for those fortunate enough to take on ownership of a beautiful recreational trawler

    • @JeffMerrillYachts
      @JeffMerrillYachts  2 роки тому

      Frank: The aft pilothouse has many advantages. They moved from sail to Nordhavn and run almost exclusively as a couple. I have clients on much larger trawlers who are also owner operators - you have to slowly learn and build up confidence, it's not a step aboard and take off unless you have the experience. The Nordhavn 62 is truly a classic.

    Could the great loop be done in 2 parts on this boat by going both directions to the middle where the limited height bridge exists? I have looked at Kadey Krogan, Nordhavn and Selene. I have looked at semi displacement and full. I always, always come back to Nordhavn. I've boated for 50 years inland on small boats, but a big water boat is a big decision. If one wanted just one boat for their retirement which would it be?

    • @JeffMerrillYachts
      @JeffMerrillYachts  2 роки тому +1

      Will: The dry stack fiberglass stack is not easy to disassemble and I don't know what the pilothouse roof height is from the waterline. I was told years ago that a 62 had done the Loop, but it seems like it would be an expensive modification, and frankly, this design would rather cross oceans than duck bridges. If you want a Nordhavn, what about a coastal pilot? 35 and 59 - both worth looking into. There are only 30 or so good brands to consider to it's such a huge inventory of sizes and layouts to draw from that I can't possibly answer your question via a YT comment.

    Does having only a walkway on one side cause any big issues with docking or handling?
    I'm looking to charter one in a few years. Possibly buy one if finances work out.

    • @JeffMerrillYachts
      @JeffMerrillYachts  Рік тому

      Reno: With hydraulic bow and stern thrusters you almost don't need any side decks! Kidding of course, but it does make it very easy to position. Two side decks was an option, but the majority of the time starboard to is preferred and the interior volume gained by pushing the saloon out the extra walkway distance provides better interior accommodations. It's a preference, a choice, but I believe most 62's are widebody (one walking side deck). Feel free to direct call or email me if you want to discuss further.

    • @JeffMerrillYachts
      @JeffMerrillYachts  2 роки тому +1

      J. Davids: The bustle hatch is dogged and gasketed. It is not "waterproof" but does a very good job of keeping the area dry (and there is an automatic bilge pump in the bustle chamber as well). The deck part of the bustle can become covered with water, but it isn't trapped so slides back over the sides. Thank you for your question and for watching.

    • @JeffMerrillYachts
      @JeffMerrillYachts  Рік тому

      Myron: I think the people to ask are the owners of the trawlers and I'm sure you will find a unanimous endorsement for stabilization underway. Choices are another part - passive like bilge keels or paravanes or, active using fins, gyros, water ballast, rotors, and maybe I have missed some alternatives. They are worth every penny and, like any system, require attention and maintenance.

      Tom: My first reply was in the wrong place, thought you were commenting on our new Kadey Krogen 58 video. Nordhavn is the leader in this category. The contemporary styling on newer boats does not have the same feel as those that highlight the deep wood finishes. This 62, Island Greeter has a gorgeous interior.

    • @JeffMerrillYachts
      @JeffMerrillYachts  Рік тому +1

      Martin: The rule of thumb is 10% of the purchase cost annually. No definitive way to generalize, "it depends". So many variables and levels of care. That is a safe number for budgeting, but it is normally much less annually once you get the boat caught up with maintenance. And, by the way, Island Greeter is available for much less than $3 million

One 62 circumnavigated, most have crossed an ocean or two. It's personal taste, like the high gloss cherry - gorgeous in person, hard to photograph and perfectly fine underway at night, not as shiny as in the day. Kadey's are fine boats too, and provide a great alternative option to a Nordhavn.

      RK: Noted and this is the format I use for all of my videos so I'm not going to change. However, if you just want to see Island Greeter, without my face or voice, you are in luck! Please go to TrawlerSpin.com and take the virtual tour = 360trawlerspin.com/tours/islandgreeter/ All Nordhavn 62!
