It IS a very beautiful yacht. But, it's so expensive and out of reach of even UA-cam and TicToc Influencers that I suspect that not many actually get built and those who can afford them want to keep them Totally Private. God Bless the Hardy Yachts and their magnificantly skilled craftspeople for turning out these pieces of Art and state of the art engineering and marine engineering. NEXT time you watch this video, consider the skills and experience of the people who build them and the owners and the sales team trying so hard to keep everyone fed and this fantastic company solvent. I Salute everyone at Hardy Yachts and hope that you all survive for another 100 years because your skills and knowledge and your YACHTS should be a national, security priority. Except that you aren't. Hardy build beautiful yachts and employ fantastically skilled artisans and world-class engineers. Let's pray the 1% admire them and BUY them!😢
Nice to see a proper test of a boat. No passing through the wake of the camera boat here. Good to see Hardy has taken on board the thoughts and comments of reviews from Hull no. 1, I thought that boat looked too dark and had the feeling of being cramped. A nice design of saloon etc with comfortable live aboard style sofa's and a very well laid out master. Good job all round.
I know you didn't anticipate the nasty part of the weather, but she rose to the challenge of the sea and wind conditions and kept you all safe. She just keeps going on, on, on and on. A gusty Lady of the Sea.
Thank you for the great review. Love Hardy boats - great design details, but can not get past fiberglass hulls. Thinking rocky shores of Minnesota's lakes and rivers
I believe that it would be very good if you would be able to make your usual test drive with Azimut Magellano 25M as it is superb very modern design trawler style boat. However as always it was pleasure to see you testing this boat on rough seas.
@@MotorBoatYachting something we never find out is the thickness of hulls on boats, GRP ones in particular. Would it be possible to mention them in your videos, and compare stringers between brands?
@@michaellui74 Certainly, we always like to test proper offshore boats when we can! Here are a few more you might like: ua-cam.com/video/7t-3u9Bse_o/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/BfEvpp4rwZQ/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/4jAdVnGfGNw/v-deo.html Enjoy!
Can I point out something if my memory is correct? The Prestige 580, 630? Bigger engines, with a SEA-KEEPER GYRO and I think I'm right in saying cheaper? Be great if this boat has bigger engines against its competitors.
The bigger the engine the more fuel it burns. You get a higher speed and a higher burn rate but the ROI isn't worth it. 5 to 10 knots extra per hour but double the fuel costs. Personally I'd stick with the smaller engines and keep the fuel savings in my pocket.
I've seen catamarins take force 10 wind conditions without any problems. And also Nordhavans. Whats the CE rating on this one? Whats the max range going between 8 & 10 knots?
Beautiful motor yacht of super expensive size. You will need six times the sales price plus tax in your bank today to ever enjoy this yacht for as little as a year... Truly beautiful boat from a fantastically safe boat builder. As for the presenter.... I've seen bigger waves inside harbours than I've ever seen him broadcast on a Rough Seas Test. (YES, I understand Marine Insurance and what etc, but, YOU are doing these boat builders Damage by NEVER actually taking them into ROUGHT WEATHER. Having watched many of your videos, I might prefer Dale Yachts for sea worthiness alone. (AND I totally understand the constraints of Borrowing and Insurance.) Don't pe e e us off with misleading Headlines. Please.
I honestly thought this boat would have took this weather I'm sure disappointed that you could not try as this says to me she cannot handle any kind of weather.not a good start to tell me oh yes it can stay the coarse so for that reason I would not even think of trying or buying this boat brand
Your audio is all over the place, i.e. not consistent. You speak soft sometimes and louder other times and sometimes trail off. Wear a wireless mic and it will be consistent. Outside, you blast and inside you're soft.
A darn Shame they just went bankrupt April 2020 . Boat deserved to be a success but I don’t think they had the money to really promote it , outside of Southampton boat show it never appeared at the big European shows .
I wish there was more clips of the Hardy 65, but there aren't so I have to keep coming back to this one. It's a beautiful boat.

well done, nice to see a real test in those conditions, no calm seas like we always see

Hope to see more out of season tests, hopefully the builders will be up for it.
Now that's what I call a proper test...
Love the layout! Dining in the galley is perfect, well done!👍✌️
I'm no captain but that really seems to be a well thought out boat.... Head height in the engine room is just one that springs to mind....
Love these videos. Please consider doing a "24 hours with the Aquila 44".
It is a beast of a ship and have beautiful classic lines
Thank you for the great review. Love Hardy boats - great design details, but can not get past fiberglass hulls. Thinking rocky shores of Minnesota's lakes and rivers
Hardy really do seem to have come up with a stunningly capable and stylish boat. Could maybe do with underfloor heating on the flybridge though?
This is a beast of a boat - great stuff
I liked this boat alot.
I believe that it would be very good if you would be able to make your usual test drive with Azimut Magellano 25M as it is superb very modern design trawler style boat. However as always it was pleasure to see you testing this boat on rough seas.
buy it
Well done.. this is my fav boat test.. I get a trip for free
You went on the flybridge in your socks..☃️❄️
I hope he tidied up the lines and stowed the fenders properly!
Great video watching you from san Fransico:-):-):-):-)
Long Island NY
Nice boat. 20 knots cruise and it would be a great boat.
What kind of range are we talking about?
Should've come to Guernsey, much better and nicer sailing than to bloody Poole! That boat could've easily done that trip
Brits and snow! Best combination for entertainment
Wow!
Fantastic video and boat
Great video:-):-) what material is the hardy 65 hull made out of?? Thank you
Thanks! She's GRP.

Thanks Michael! Hardy boats are built in Norfolk, UK

How would you compare this to Nelson Dale or Aquastar? especially the hull is little different from the other two..
Can I point out something if my memory is correct? The Prestige 580, 630? Bigger engines, with a SEA-KEEPER GYRO and I think I'm right in saying cheaper?
Be great if this boat has bigger engines against its competitors.
are you comparing sport yachts with a cruising boat? Hardy is designed to cross rough waters, sport yachts aren't really meant to do that.
The bigger the engine the more fuel it burns. You get a higher speed and a higher burn rate but the ROI isn't worth it. 5 to 10 knots extra per hour but double the fuel costs. Personally I'd stick with the smaller engines and keep the fuel savings in my pocket.

Hardy were one of the victims of COVID-19, sadly - they went bust a few months ago 😞
Very nice yaught 😁😎
Review the boat in the summer time

When was this filmed?
March of this year.
that is a good looking boat! This is 2018, any update for 2020/21?
They nearly went bust earlier this year, but have been bought out by Cockwells: cockwells.co.uk/cockwells-acquire-hardy-marine/
Tell me what material is the body made of? Could not find the information.
You clearly don't know anything about boats

better to be on land wishing you were out at sea, than out at sea wishing you were on land . if was force 8 in freezing conditions

Hardy Marine was sold in 2013 to Windboats, have they gone bust too Mr Diavel?
Drew O’roirden yes last month they folded again , but i think it was was a pre pack job and now back in ownership with the same people.
