I thought my headphones where brocken, had to watch another video to check 🤣
This is it, this is the one. Bloody hell it's absolutely perfect. Beautifully designed and absolutely oozes class. I'm ordering one as soon as I win the euromillions. But seriously though, it would be perfect, I never thought I could look past a flybridge but you actually have it, only at sea level.
I like the lines of this boat and the utility of a huge rear deck. The interior layout plus range, speed, and quiet operation are all great features.
And of course the crew cabin which looks like a death trap. Oh... and did I hear the presenter say that it is 'expensive'?
10:25 looks like a small boat that's been super sized.
So nice to see different boats and layouts. So many manufacturers and boats are subtle variations on a standard layout.
Love this set up, very innovative. Great tour as well. 👍
what a beauty i can watch this all day
Lekker man lekker
Wow what a great find, I like that one a lot. 👍🇬🇧❤️
Thanks for the walkthrough and test. Super low volume though in the first part, but noticeably better during the Cannes sea trial.
I like the "X" versions of these with the galley in the (slightly extended) pilothouse and a physical separation between the master aft and the forward guest cabins.
That design looks like a great recipe for broaching in a steep following sea. No thank you very much.
That is a problem with a lot of new yachts. You'll notice it was too rough to get out of the river at first so they had to wait till Cannes. That was also part of the problem with the loss of Yacht Yogi - the rear beach club doors failed. It is classified B but I wouldn't trust it in any sort of weather.
I wouldn’t take her out of the harbor, she’s not meant for rough water.
nice video, thanks
Interesting, not my cup-of-tea, but can see it's appeal. Great tour - thanks!
Can't believe you cut the video as he's coming into berth lol.
9/10
Thanks for a great video, cant decide if I like it or not. The interior design is not to my liking and I would have liked to have seen the kitchen in greater detail as it seemed very small. Having a 3 cabin layout in that size boat is also a bit challenging. However if you could add another layer to the boat and have the master in what would be a sky lounge, or just a sky lounge and the master at the back would turn it into a 4 berth boat that would be very interesting to see. I love the placement of the engines and the easy of access. The helm position is great as well. A boat however very much suited to the med, not the UK
Ver cool. I had a 50 ft trawler for a few years and found it was too big to make use of in SF Bay Area. If you’re going to have a big boat, having outdoor space makes good sense.
Thumbs up from me, I could see myself enjoying the living space. I could also operate a mini sub from that work deck aft.
It’s an interesting concept, but not for me.
If I was looking to spend that kind of money on a boat, this would be very low down on my list.
Thanks for showing us around Jack 👍
What would you go with at this price?
Agree. For that money I'd rather buy a luxury yacht, not a tug boat with dungeons below.
I agree. Too plain. I'd go for an Expedition Explorer. Nice review, however.
Looks like a luxury trawler
Interesting concept. Could certainly see why someone would use this in the med. after all, the point of boating (when not living aboard) is to enjoy yourself on the water, and this clearly does that more so than any other boat I have seen in its class, and as such, interior volume does not matter.To all the traditionalists moaning about the design and it only being good in calmer waters and lack of engine room space and interior volume are completely missing the point, and need to chill tf out. I love a nordhavn, Bering, Grand Banks as much as the next person. But it is a completely different intended design. Also, a boat this size will always be able to take a good amount of seas anyway, don’t act like it cannot deal with any seas like one idiot already commenting in here.
Cabins are also decent enough to stay for a few days/weeks, and looks are there imo
love these big game boats.they are a swiss army knife of the motor yacht industry.technically you could drive your car from the dockside onto this.lol.thats if you wanted to.just genious with all that space.i have seen many sea trials of this from many countries.i totally get the concept.one will be itching to get this out.any excuse.lol.well done jack.;)
Sanlorezo's make some really interesting designed boats.
This is more like a 50 foot yacht + 20 foot swim platform. For the price tag and official length, it leaves a lot to be desired in terms of functionality and "yachtness". Interesting design; I'd be curious to see its market appeal.
And you still have more space than on other 70 feet yachts😂
@@fk4410 Except Cabin space, Salon space.
Interesting boat, but I’d guess it’s a very niche market, personally I wouldn’t have this, I’d have an absolute or prestige because I prefer that style of yacht. Looks amazing in the sea trial though. Thanks for sharing.
I'm kind of digging these newer yachts that almost seem like oversized center consoles.
AC DC services !!!! Always like a bit of rock n roll while I'm in my supa yacht
Perfect. All that space to park my Reliant Robin
Play it nice and cool, son, nice and cool... 😎
Ok, just found my boat, now gotta find the money lol!
Поцікавіше Зиландера!
The big sliding door that close to the water concerns me...a lot. Say you're moving at 25 knots and have to make a full emergency stop and that idiotic door is open. What happens...glub glub?
I think if you'd had that aft deck shown with loads of toys then people would have gotten the vibe even better. My main question is how well it runs when it's rough. I need something that's bulletproof, and does 30 knots in the 18-22 knots of wind kinda day in open ocean.
I think this boat was made for me
Always like your reviews Jack. However, I would advise your camera-man to get a better low-light level camera.
Even in the outdoor shots the shadow areas were unusually and un-necessarily darker giving too high contrast levels.
Definitely need a better low-level light camera and yes i appreciate the interior of the boat had darker wood stains.
The boat is very well appointed and luxurious. The design is unique.
I prefer the new Sunseeker 65 Sport Yacht. Your review there was also great.
Thanks.
Thank you for a proper tour…
My dreams
I love the concept, but don't quite understand the difference to the BGX72. The BG72 seems to have more open space, right? Any other major differences?
About the comments here on seaworthyness - is there any difference to a more traditional boat like a Princess or Sunseeker of that size?
👏🏼👏🏼
Even if i wasnt a pauper,nope, got disaster at sea written all over it. Form over function
Like the video, Not sure of the same for the Boat..
There were some technical issues that didn't prevent me from understanding the audio. Another quibble - I lost track of the tour for a bit, you should try harder to show exactly were you are when you change positions. On a typical yacht you could guess where you are, with this different layout not so much. I wouldn't trust it in any sort of sea, I would be worried in a Force 3.
Thank you for the tour but it looks like they tried to stand out so much they wound up with something impractical. Not a fan.
A real gin palace - party boat, not my thing but very interesting concept and design nonetheless.
I'd kit the top deck out with solar, I wonder what the capacity of the deck crane is?
There’s one in our marina. It never goes anywhere which is a shame as it looks like it’d like an adventure
Checked bank again .....
Maybe next month!
Great boat...not great bank account!
how does it compare to the VDV Beach club? similar design concept.
saw this in HK, its very unique
The one in HK is a slightly different sister, the BGX70.
Sound only comes from the left channel.
Interesting boat not impressed with the crew space. I suspect for me lighter interior colours would be better. I'll be honest she handles well at sea. But I'm not sure she for me. But interesting to see .
But hats off to the captain for his skillful edging the boat into its berth.
Excellent video Jack, you have lots of moaning subscribers 😂🤣😂
Just a heads up, audio seems broken on this video, only coming threw left audio
I really feel for the crew, who would have to put up with trying to sleep in that coffin-like 'cabin'. Why are the crews quarters always so absolutely horrible????
its not quite at all XD compair this to the berring yachts it makes ALOT of noice!
but still looks like a nice yacht
It’s an awesome boat but where is the Galley?
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
a nice boat and a lot of space but i think the makers have so much space they have struggled what to do with it ! my opinion
the crew cabin on this boat is just taking piss for the price tag of the boat
no Galley?
What about big aft waves, in my country they are called Køter or dogs
great video but the sound comes from the left ear only I couldn't watch the rest :(
Did i miss the galley?
Hmmm based on this review - though perfectly executed - we dont get to apreciate the added value of the huge deck during the conditions for which it was designed. I'd rather see a video of a family with kids or 2-3 couples spending a typical cruise-day in it. That would show better if this big space at the back is actually offering something to the owner or not.
We're sure Jack will make that point to Bluegame in time for the next test 😉
@@MotorBoatYachting and if you're looking for volunteers for that video I could make myself and family available for a week or two for the right cruising grounds.
You would need a crane, and load it up with water toys on the aft.
May I respectfully submit a request, when you are talking about a certain object - Master Cabin's on suite you mentioned the sinks hardware, but your cameraman was filming something completely different, I was interested in what you were describing but could not actually see it;(
Please have the Cameraman coordinate better with you in your future Ship Shows please.
Thank You, very nice vessel.
wonderfull layout but lost of lots of possible space...
Mono sound from the left. Strange choice... Nice boat though.
Why?
Id never stick any crew member in that holding tank😢
Ignore - wrong headphones
No sound
Shame about the audio quality
I cant hear a word.
Have you herd the Audio on this video.
The firstn2/3 the Sound are wery Low and bad. When you Cut to the sea test, the Audio g’et lowder and more clean.
But not good quality.
You have to do something abaut it.
Where is the galley?
Forward of the seating area in the main saloon on the port side
Where is the sound ??
In the left ear only lol
I bust out laughing when limeys call a grill bbq 😂😂😂😂
Too rough to take it out on the river, really, that's a poor advert for the boat. Don't like the saloon, looks very cramped. Also, can't agree about the engine access, on a 72 ft boat, I want to walk into the engine compartment, not go down a hatch. Sanlorenzo build a much better boat in this class, the SX76.
I found that odd also, so a bit of chop and your stuck at the dock?
To clarify, the issue was with the effect on depth at the mouth of the river, not the boat's ability to handle the sea state.
Not much for the crew. No galley? Somewhat large for an owner operator. Surprising for a yacht of that size.
So for 4 million I can either buy a mansion with 10 bedrooms etc. or I can buy this boat with a 4 x 4mtr salon and 3 tiny bedrooms. I wouldn't even buy thios for 500.000.
Don't tell me you have to climb in the engine bay to undo the 4 latches then climb out to open it bad design I'd say
Paint it grey and the toy area becomes HMS Fearless or Intrepid…….
Don't you know how to make your voice in the middle? You have +100k subscribers, I'm sure you can figure it out.
Video way way too dark
What's with the mono sound??? It's really annoying!! And very amateurish.
Why is your camera shaking? For $100 you can have stabilised camera how seriously do you take your work ?
you lost the sale for me..
Wow - what a shaky camera. Hardly watchable. Next time employ someone not suffering cold turkey
Couldn't listen to the whole thing. Half your audio channel was removed (one speaker operating, or only half of your input working). Looks like right channel is missing, at least until 75% through the video. Small recommendation; watch your video before uploading. Normally your content is much better than this
poor mans yacht for sure
Crew cabin? Disgusting, shouldn't be used for people. Just storage.
For a 3.8m € This is a joke.
meh
so much wasted space - a 72 at 3.8M... your money can buy you much better designed yachts
Beach club. is such a pathetically over used term for a aft deck
Utterly stupid. Why turn a 74ft yacht into a 50ft yacht?
whats the difference with the "x" version
