I just captained one of these from Midland Ontario to Toronto via Lake Huron, Lake St. Claire, Lake Erie, the Welland Canal, and Lake Ontario. These boats perform well for their size and shape. I agree they are not the best looking boat on the water, but, but... you will not find more space on the water for length than what is offered here. The fully enclosed upper area is a head ache, you are either making condensation on the outside or inside of windows all the time if you are operating on the Great Lakes. I prefer the Volvo Penta models over the models with Cummins, although the Cummins transmissions shift faster and have better control at low speeds. Great vessels... but look like Captin Kirk shoud be at the helm.
Thanks for your thoughtful comment- this boat is the most spacious and really great for people who liveaboard. Tons of storage and living space throughout.
Understand. We got requests for something other than silence. In our newer videos we give a brief description of the vessel at the beginning. We're working hard to represent these boats- thanks for your feedback.
Good Question. I was thinking probably the same reason most apartments and home interiors are painted whites and off whites. Does not mean one cannot change the color after acquisition.
I appreciate your energy and effort in giving a complete picture of a boat and its practicality, but the back and forth of the camera and that "vertigo- inducing" music is absolutely annoying. I'm exhausted by it and we aren't even off the aft deck. Please tone it down or turn it off because you have a good subject with great interest. Thanks
We appreciate the feedback Stephen. I can assure you that we do our very best to represent these boats well, and give potential buyers an initial walkthrough of the boat before they spend money to travel to see it. It is not meant to replace an actual showing for interested parties. Please know that we work hard and it is not our goal to upset anyone. Hope you have a great rest of your week. -Brent
Thank you for your feedback. This was one of our earlier videos and we're always striving to improve through everyone's feedback. This boat is gorgeous!
Give me a trawler style any day of the week. Oh sure, they don't have the European styling, and they're not as fast as other hull designs. But they're use of space with flush decks (for example) is so practical.
360p Resolution - Why? If you really want to show your product in all it's Splendor, upload your videos in 1080p or even 4K! Good God - 360p was TV resolution in 1980's! This is like being there, LIVE (in Person) while NOT wearing my Prescription glasses!
Thank you for the feedback. We are working diligently with each listing to showcase the boat in the best possible way and give you an idea of what it's like to be on the boat. In no way is this meant to replace an actual showing for those interested. Again, we appreciate your feedback.
I don't doubt that she is comfortable to be onboard. I just think boats of this type are awkward to bring alongside with multi-levels, narrow side-decks, and high freeboard.
@@greatloopyachtsales i think these are uber-practical boats. but they look like they have a screen room sitting on the back of a boat which is already about to tip over backwards. again - super useful and functional, but imbalanced. maybe some others will comment so we can help your yourtube analytics.
I think most aft cabin yachts look more like floating bars of soap and top heavy but you cannot beat the amount of liveable space. It's a lot of fiberglass for sure but for its time, this was a very popular model.

Why is the primary choice for yacht paint the color of toilets?
This is a question we've never gotten before. Not sure we can answer this one.

Thank you for mentioning that awful musuck. Great video though
Never mind. Turning the sound off only makes a bad dream seem more like a nightmare!
Nice boat ,BUT, ORDINARY LENS AND NO STUPID MUSIC REQUIRED

Seems like a nice baot stopped half way because of the annoying sound and mind twisting videographer, holly crap that was bad.

Voice overs really aren't that difficult. Also, the music has a lot to be desired. I'll pass.
Thanks so much for your feedback. We have begun doing intros on our newer videos.
Practical and functional but definitely in the top 5 ugliest boats available.
Respectfully disagree- she is absolutely gorgeous!
