@@JCrook1028 I was thinking the same thing, there were no side view footage , from a distance to see just how large the yacht was in comparison to the crane lifting it.
Another large advantage being inside if you are in a cold climate you could be in a heated shed so you don't have to winterize system and re commissioning cost in spring! Cheers Warren
This would be a great time to explain why they are tapping on the hull. The type of bottom paint and how t work’s. And the stabilizers. And why they are there.
can you please make a video showing all the technical bits underneath the boat such as the propellers, rudders, bow thruster, and intakes, transducers etc?
Have they repaired the damage that was done earlier this year? I know fiberglass repairs may be kind of boring to watch, but it would be interesting to see that.
Not that this matters one bit but I was on a cruise in the Med in November & just checked my diary. On the 6th November I was on a bus tour to the Leaning Tower of Pisa from the cruise Port at Livorno & recall seeing Yachts on the left from the bus. I thought at the time, how did they get so far from the coast to be there. Now I know, up a canal. Not only that but now I also know who was there. If I'd known then I would have waved.
Hi Tristan. I remember how happy you was the last reveal ' 10 million pound boat' and as mentioned in the canal transfer, Awol 8s already sleek and gleaming so it will be beter than new at the beginning of next season. Antifoul looks great.
You have to face your camera while you are narrating - either that or do voice over while editing. Second, you did not explain the rattatting. The guy was soulnding the hull for voids and blisters which occur in FRP vessels. Remember that when speaking to your camera you must face it or get a mike clipped to your shirt or some place that will give consistent sound. These electronic cameras are convenient but brainless. You have to consider sun angle and the light/dark ratios when filming. and Auto iris jumps around when face on to the sun, reflections or other bright lights. Thanks for the vids, nice job. That must have been a tedious trip up that canal. The bridge was a real "Nail Biter". Good Job, Tristan.
Tristan, just because you are talking doesn't mean the camera has to be on you. For viewers, they want to see what's happening and every time you turn, or turn the camera, the picture is all over the place. Give us a steady shot and talk in the background with ocassional shots of you if you think it necessary.
In your down time and for a future post, information on the flags and procedures with the Q flag and arriving at port would be very interesting, many know about flying the respectful flag upon entering waters but with crew and guests on board, it will be interesting to know the process of arriving at port and international rules.
Tristan at 7:22 behind your finger and next Slav's head... What is that opening? Top secret Silent Caterpillar propulsion system (The Hunt for Red October Movie- reference) or something else?
Tristan, it would be helpful if you procured a wireless microphone for recording; everytime you turn your head away from the camera the volume of your voice drops appreciably. I have noticed this before like when you are maneuvering into a mooring, just a suggestion to improve the quality of your interesting videos.
I'm a yacht detailer and I coat lots of yachts in storage units very similar to those. You should do the Super Structure as well. Or let me and my guys come do it for you. I'd love to put my name on Awol.
Hello Tristan, You should know I have watched your entire vlog with much pleasure and I think you are doing a super job. I have been a guest aboard a (not quite super-, 26m) yacht for many years. Your recommendations on treatment of the boat are generous, in the video there is no visible barnacle-contamination and yet you have it cleaned and ceramic-coated. What do you charge guests in order to keep this up? You never seem to worry about costs, which, even for me, is hard to swallow. Let this not deviate you from your great work, it seems the owner can afford it. Please let it not be a Russian or an Arab.
Thanks for the ongoing videos. What is the life expectancy of the ceramic coating ? What's involved in removing it at the end of its life ? What brand of coating is used ?
Can you do a video explaining how to become a superyacht captain such as you? Also what's your opinion on Warsash's superyacht cadetship? Thanks in advance
@@SuperYachtCaptain right, just watched them, very interesting but probably a bit of an unusual career path? What do you recommend doing if someone wants to become a captain as well and is there a possibility to get job experience to see if one wants to pursue this path? I appreciate your help
You should tell people what the guy was doing with the hammer when he was tapping on the hull.I know because I work around Marinas and it's for finding delamination or soft spots in the fiberglass.
They have a lot of work to do on the yacht. They work monday to Friday ordinary work hours, and sleep at their own homes. I dont know in detail what they do. The chief engineer working in the engineroom and make uppdates and so on. The stewards maby make plans for next season.
@@tjenare7605 I saw the videos from last winter with the major overhaul of the ship, but I think it was only the captain who was involved. This year I think it is only the matter of putting the ship in garage. And of cause a couple of weeks in the springtime to make everything shine and working for the next season. ?
He's said before the entire crew is employed full time, including off season. Off season is a great time for continuing education courses and planning/maintenance in their respective divisions.
Form the USA, East Coast, been watching. Like the vids!!! One thing Cap. You have to stop turning your head when recording. Surprised you ain't caught this yet. Everytime you turn your head sounds goes out!!! On deck, engine room, on dock! Now this vid? Awesome visual vid! But you were turning your head alot and still talking. Sound quality👎👎👎. Boat looks great!!! 👍👍👍 Stop turning your head!!! Lmao!!! Thanks for sharing!!! 👍👍👍
Is that a 500 MT Travelift? It reminds me of the Travelift in Newport, RI, USA. (16 wheels) It's fun to watch the operator walking around with his Remote Control Box hanging around his neck looking for things that might not be to his liking. I live on a lake and the biggest Travelift we have is about 40 tons and the operator rides on the Travelift.
Hi Tristan You either need a body mic or you need to do your piece direct to camera. Turning your head causes the volume of your voice to drop and is distracting. Otherwise well done.
It looks like the bottom paint held up pretty well. How often do you paint the bottom of AWOL? I could get away with 2 season on Lake Erie. Does the entire crew work on AWOL , Deck, Interior , and Engineering , during the off season . Great video.
I know others have said it below, but just to let you know, you are turning away from the mike while presenting. Perhaps you could get a tie clip mike? I also find the new promotional animations very annoying. But comments a side keep up the good work love your vlogs. I would love to see a detailed bridge tour of the radars and more talk of the radio procedures. Pass on good wishes to the rest of the crew and have a good break.
What is the biggest yacht that you could take out of the water and store like this? If you don't get the shadow vessel and get a bigger yacht instead could you still do this?
good vid but each time you turn away from camera, it is a struggle to hear you. suggest you invest in a separate microphone. other than that-most enjoyable
Hi when it is dry docked do you and the crew go to the boat and spend time working there doing jobs full time and also when do you actually holiday and rest ?
Great video. Interesting to see what happens to a superyacht when its season is over. Isn't the insurance on the yacht cheaper when the yacht is undercover in storage on dry land as opposed to in the water at a berth for the winter?
It will vary depending on the yard (and nearby competition) but an average fee will be $25-30 per metre to lift and move to hard standing. Then storage or work fees on top.
Many owners will bot wrap and store in a shed to reduce effect of condensation from cold wet winter air, wrapping fee will vary based on location and size but expect ABOUT $40 PLUS $1.50 per metre.
I’ve seen boats hauled out after being in the water for a month with more growth. Goes to show, use top grade products and actually enjoying the vessel is the way to go.
Where a vessel is moored & operated has a bearing on how much marine? growth it accumulates. A vessel moored in brackish water or less warm ambient water tends to have less growth.
Таких видео о яхтах очень мало. Уже неделю смотрю Ваши записи на одном дыхании :) !
I knew they came out to be cleaned, but I never knew that boats that large were dry stored! Impressive.
That's not a really large boat...

This is a very good video. The shots of AWOL as her hull was going over the camera that was fantastic.
Thnx Commander! Really Cool! Absolutely Fantastic! CJ
I’m super excited to see what goes on during the winter months? What’s the daily like. Etc..
This would be a great time to explain why they are tapping on the hull. The type of bottom paint and how t work’s. And the stabilizers. And why they are there.
All your questions are answered in the vlogs posted during the last yard period.
I think the hull looks amazing after 6 months.
can you please make a video showing all the technical bits underneath the boat such as the propellers, rudders, bow thruster, and intakes, transducers etc?
always interesting mate, please keep on showing the real inside of yachting
Yes... the condition of the hull is amazing.
Perfect! At the beginning of the next season, you can restock a lot of IKEA hotdogs.
lol. These are probably made from the same stuff their furniture is.

Please tell me you show the process of moving it into the shed.
at 6:56 is he tapping the hull to figure out where the bulkheads are? That would probably be the best points to place the blocks.
he is tapping to check for any osmosis or de-laminating of the hull
he's tapping to find the frames. you're not far away

This weekend our 34 footer is getting hauled for the winter with a travelift that is a weeeeee bit smaller. Only a 30 ton capacity.
Fascinating,,, wow.

Time to investigate Sharrow Engineering loop propellers. 15% more efficient. Great video.

Captain - what was the guy checking with his hammer the whole length of the hull?
Its probably a surveyor doing a Hull survey. Checking for soft spots
Propspeed is epic stuff, lasted 3 seasons on my Azimut, whereas a boatyard convinced me to use Velox and it is crap.
Like to see a video on the qualifications and training need to drive a super yacht
Check out the “Super Yacht School” Video
Pretty cool !

What are the tapping along the hull for?

Tristan does AWOL have stern thrusters also ?

Appears to be up for sale again.
At 4:21 it looks like the starboard prop got dinged. or is that just the way the prop is designed?
4" Shafts ? Don't forget to change out the cutless bearings, and maybe some prop speed.
a bit different from winterising my boat 😂😂

Just wondering. Is Jason related to giv?
Giv and Tristan are a couple for quite some years.
@@berndhaverkock6070 What's that got to do with the question Thomas asked?
@@JCrook1028 understood his question that way if they are a couple, might got it wrong...
Do they have lots of hangers for boats or is there a wait list? Why’s he hammering on the yacht and has anyone ever knocked back?
Why do you not go to the Caribbean and do charters there for the Winter?
When AWOL is in the water.... do you sometimes dive under AWOL do see and check for example the props etc.?
A tonne of money, ... but it's worth...
Not so keen on the tacky graphics and audio, but really interesting to see them lifting AWOL out the water and checking the GRP hull too.
Looks like a bent blade on Stbd prop (4:34)
Is that a 500 MT Travelift? It reminds me of the Travelift in Newport, RI, USA.

I thought it stayed in all year as you would take the vessel to warmer climates 🤔
Hope that was part 1 of the move??
What antifoul do you use ? That looks amazing for 6 months in the water..
Will they be repairing the damage from the accident earlier or has that already been done?
So is that it for the winter. Do you guys not see or work together until next spring/summer. Let me know very interesting. Thanks.
We haul out yachts everyday at Jarrett Bay!
Why don't you ship the boat across on a carrier vessel and continue to charter in the Caribbean?
And your close to an IKEA store.
Given AWOL is for sale what happens if a prospective buyer wants sea trials, and what happens to any advance charters if it sells ?

Hi,
what are you doing in winter season while AWOL is out of the water?
What is the "normal" job in this part of the year?
How do you and your guests deal with Customs when you dock in different countries?
Kristen awol needs to be owned by you the owner should let you pay monthly payments nobody takes care of that yacht the way you do nobody
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
4:25 when did you last get the antifouling done because it looks very good
Was done during last Winters repaint/refit
The yacht is cool and all that but let's talk about the IKEA in the background 👀
Captain, which Marina can you recommend for 200 million super yacht .
I know others have said it below, but just to let you know, you are turning away from the mike while presenting. Perhaps you could get a tie clip mike?

So what happens with the chase boat and the captain of the chase boat, when AWOL is stored for the winter.
He showed the chase boat following them to the same marina for over winter storage...
They are put to sleep, it's more humane that way!
What is the biggest yacht that you could take out of the water and store like this? If you don't get the shadow vessel and get a bigger yacht instead could you still do this?
The limits are length and vessel weight, the one shown in this video is about 700 Tons. (635,000 Kilo)
Why was that worker tapping on the hull with a hammer?
Hi Tristan, does the entire crew stay on during the winter (i.e keep getting paid) or just a bare crew?
good vid but each time you turn away from camera, it is a struggle to hear you. suggest you invest in a separate microphone. other than that-most enjoyable
Hi when it is dry docked do you and the crew go to the boat and spend time working there doing jobs full time and also when do you actually holiday and rest ?

How much does a travel lift cost? Enjoy the Chanel
It will vary depending on the yard (and nearby competition) but an average fee will be $25-30 per metre to lift and move to hard standing. Then storage or work fees on top.
Hey Tristan have you ever had the yacht shrink wrapped? if so how does the price compare to the shed?
Many owners will bot wrap and store in a shed to reduce effect of condensation from cold wet winter air, wrapping fee will vary based on location and size but expect ABOUT $40 PLUS $1.50 per metre.
