      How old are you hippy? What do you do for work? If you don't mind my asking... learn a trade friend... you'll have to start from the bottom but what you'll learn is invaluable and will save you thousands and thousands. Pays very well. I do hvacr. Started as an install helper. You might be poor but your only poor right now... chin up.

    Well done, first time I was on a paddle board I went right in the drink. Of course, I thought I could just walk on to it no problem and it rapidly taught me the respect I was .lacking. It never occured to me that I could go on my knees. Some really cool upgrades you've made, super happy for you. My wife and I just got our place ready for summer at the lake so we'll be out on the water soon too.

    You've done some wonderful work on the upgrades this winter, nick I'm very impressed with your navigational aids especially the new VHF set-up and your new Garman screen. The paddleboard is a great addition to 'Smuggler's Blues 2' and was inflated in double quick time by another new upgrade. The upgrades you've made to your boat will only add to the cost if you ever come to sell her nick,well done.

    Hi Nick.
    Enjoy watching how you work on the boat to upgrade. Intrigued about the integrated pump system. I just got a great external pump today, which is amazing in filling up my inflatables. But it is another thing lying around on the boat…
    My boat is a 2024 model, so many of the things you install are standard on mine at this time. But seeing you upgrade to same functionality holds promise about my boat too being able to age and add future features.
    Thank you for your authenticity, enjoyment and play. Boat on!

    Love the upgrades to Smugglers Blues Nick & nice paddleboard too!
    One bit of advice from a seasoned paddler: get a quick-release waist belt for the leash so you can wear it in flowing water with obstructions; you can easily free yourself if snagged but keeps the board close if you come off. You don’t want to lose that lovely board & it can be a lifesaver if you get cold water shock.

    • @AQUAHOLIC
      @AQUAHOLIC  8 місяців тому +1

      That's a good idea, although to be honest, I think it will mostly get used when we're anchored in bays along the coast.

    That is one well loved boat, and a credit to her owner! The work that Coastal Marine did on cleaning and waxing the GRP is superb, and looks even better now she's on the water! As for the upgrades, what a list! If I had to choose it would be between the Zipwake and the Fusion - probably the Fusion, because you can enjoy that on the plane and at anchor - but think like you I would just have ticked all the boxes! Have a great summer.

Needless to say it was a comedy moment as i lost my balance immediately and tumbled into the water losing an expensive pair of sunglasses at the same time. My wife just gave me one of those looks and went back to reading her book. My kids now use it...............

    For someone who will never own a boat I cannot tell you how much I enjoy your videos - it is clear how much you enjoy your boat- I very much enjoy your 'update' videos every year - I love how you always say "I'll edit that out" but then don't, we get to see the real you- thanks for another great video ( ps, even if I won the lottery I wouldn't buy a boat, perhaps charter one for a vacay (too old, somewhat disabled, my life is my dog ( that's where all my money goes lol)

    Lovely video.
    I'm not really in agreement with the "don't wear the leash" comment but i understand why.
    Having fallen off my paddleboard lots, knowing you still have it when you surface, for me that's priceless.
    With getting on it, the board is more stable when moving, so it best to push it and stand straight on it, not easy to do from a boat though.
    I have been swimming in shorts the last 3 weekends in a row, the water in Christchurch bay isn't tropical but it's definitely not freezing 😂

    Good upgrades, and the pump is so quick...even better it will suck the air back out for packing purposes.
    Funnily enough, I nearly asked you why Smugglers didn't sport an ensign!!
    The big question is.....did you fall in getting back onto the boat from the board?🤣
