      Nice to see the original colours of the teak decking and her paintwork are also meticulously maintained in her present form. It gives her that timeless charm.

      Your enthusiasm for all things Bond gave me a chuckle. Beautiful boat. Thanks for posting the clip from the movie too. Believe it or not I never saw the movie but now I'm going to have to watch it.

    Your excitement to tour this one its infectious. Thank you Nick. Stay safe out there.

    The beauty of planked wood laid down upon laminated ribs.All made stronger through the function of interlocking joinery. The precision of clockworks provide function while assuring each piece and segment is held firm in its place. The space below decks is a nod to an era long passed, yet brought to life once more by the hands and tools of loving labour. The boat is awe inspiring even sitting proud upon her stand, teased at the water's edge. Daniel, er, I mean Nick (so easily mistaken) this is a true work of art. Thank you for the tour.

  • @nattieo
    @nattieo 3 роки тому +54

    That boat, much like Nick himself, is beautiful inside and out. Full of class.
    Thank you for these videos, absolutely makes my day when I see Aquaholic pop up in my feed.

    This beauty was also the first sailboat to sail through Venice in over 300 years. That’s also very cool. I’m so jealous of you Nick. What an amazing boat

  • @o0bananaman0o

  • @sadenuttie2234

    Beautiful classic yacht. Looks like it was built in the 50s with that styling and woodwork. What a stunner

  • @gordonsimpson3235
    @gordonsimpson3235 3 роки тому +10

    Excellent Nick. I share your enthusiasm.
    This is a boat for style - not for long vacations on board. In the style of the conspicuous consumption 1920's-30's elite.
    I think I saw this boat on the Spirit pontoon at SBS a few years ago.....it is heart achingly beautiful, and I hope it gains an owner who will love and cherish it.
    That amount of varnish needs deep pockets or infinite patience!

    @dnmurphy48 3 роки тому +11

    Don't care about bond, but the boat is so beautiful and the tour was a great enjoyment. You obviously loved what you were doing and had real fun and that carried back to us i think. Spirit make the most beautiful sailing yachts, but they are real sailor's yachts.

  • @neilhaslam4068

    Spirit Yachts are timeless, the skill of craftmanship and love that goes into their boats is phenomenal. I hope that Spirit keeps going as a business for many many years, and no doubt there will always be buyer looking for a new Spirit yacht! Terrific UK success story.

  • @SP-ut5wc
    @SP-ut5wc 3 роки тому +11

    To be honest the Oyster 675 with a carbon rig next to the Spirit, is a better boat and even "cheaper", but pretty beats everything in the end.
    Thank you mr Burnham, that was a real treat! (hopefully we'll see a Spirit 63 in the futur)

    I can see why it was chosen for a bond film. It has everything you would have in your dreams within your ultimate sailing boat. I wouldn't want to take it out to sea and get it dirty. It is pure boat art at its very best. It shows in the UK we can still find boat yards that can build such beauty without resorting to a fibreglass hull.

    @AntonKramer 3 роки тому +2

    What a classic beauty clearly maintained with a lot of love!
    There is currently one in my home port with a rich racing history as well. Sadly completely neglected and in a state of disrepair, it has had several owners over the past few decades without doing anything about its state of disrepair.
    recently this ship has been re-sold, with the intention of returning it to its original condition.
    Ships like this classic beauty can apparently no longer be built, good to see that they are still cared for with love

    I love this yacht. I once photoshopped a picture of my boat in the background of one of the Bond stills with Soufriere in the foreground and told my friends that I would have been in the film but, unfortunately, they decided to edit me out at the last moment. One of them believed me... I never let on.

    @HakureiReimuOfficial 3 роки тому +1

    I normally dislike "modern classic" boats that try hard to recreate the look of classics but pile up modern features like hydraulics and yadayada, but this one hits the spot incredibly well. Looks like a true sailor's boat, despite and on top of the luxury.

    Well Sir you've echoed everything I was thinking when watching this fabulous clip right down to the geeky bond person I am. Wow what a buzz that must have been and thanks for sharing.
    Lastly for me the ignorant one.
    I grew up in Cape Town and had an uncle who single handedly built his yacht probably half the size and moored it for decades at the Royal Cape Yacht club in Table Bay. Spent childhood learning to sail on it but that's another story.
    I always thought a yacht has sails and a motorboat has an engine please clarify this point and put me out of my misery lol

    An example of wood crafted and sculptured to create an incredibly beautiful machine. A lot of other more modern styled boats you show could learn a few lessons from it.
    No space wasted, functional and full of class. I think I prefer the style to many of the larger luxury types.
