8:30 Capt. Paul gave a (in his way of being stern) hard command. Telling Steve to do his per drone planning. I worked on a boat with Captain Paul’s style of command. That was 35 years ago, when I was 17. Worked on that boat for 5 years. That Captain is still one of my best most respected friends.
Keep the great videos coming Steve. There all great. And I watch them all.
Keep Safe and Well, Loon Crew.
I’m hooked on this and Nina’s channel. I’m going back and watching the older ones I didn’t see. So interesting to see how the other half live. And seeing the life of the crew, what a great way to see the world
Steve you're doing great.
We think so to. Thanks for watching 🛥🤙
Definitely think they wanted to up their game on the videos....
Always love the scenes that include the crew doing their thing. It is the crew that makes Loon special!
Spat out my drink when that guy started meowing. Great work Steve, cheers Loon crew!
hahaha yea what was that! Maybe a little island fever? 😂
@@motoryachtloon I suspect he noticed you were filming, and decided to do something silly on camera 🤷♂
I have been a long time follower. Steve is doing a great job and keeping up the great quality we have all become used to. Bravo!
Hi Mitchell, Thanks for continuing to watch and for the support. Steve is finding his way nicely and will continue to improve so get ready 😎
STEVE! This video was EPIC! Those drone shots skimming the water with the music....Chef's kiss! Capt Paul's dive footage was amazing as always. Great save with landing the drone onboard. Pat yourself on the back for this one!
Steve got very lucky with this one. Let's see how long it will take until the next one. 🛥🥂
The way I jumped just as much as Steve did when the horn blasted at the end 😅
hahaha Capt Paul for the win 😏
good work Steve
Love the addition of music to the evening drone flyovers. Lovely job, Steve!
Probably your best video yet! Gorgeous shots
Thank you and Steve is just getting started 😎
@@motoryachtloon Steve is doing very well and he is happy doing this! Thank you!
Seeing more of the destinations with Steve is cool. And seeing Paul get out in the water is also nice. Glad to see the "next week video" preview at the end.
Super video. Great drone shots!
Best video yet. Steve has hit the ground running. Loving this content 👏
Thank you we think so also 🛥🥂
Easily your best one yet Steve!
We think so to. Thank you ☺️
Nicely done Steve and Congrats on NOT CRASHING THE DRONE!! Actually how many drones has Capt Paul lost?? Great finishing of video with the Horn blasting away thought you chiattt your shorts then lol.
The person meowing at Steve - like what hahah
That ending was great!!
Epic Dives, great video Steve!
Wow!
LOVE the Drone footage. EXCELLENT!
Love You Team Loon..❤❤
Awesome video
Stunning
Love these long-form, explanation-rich videos. Keep up the great work!
Always does my heart glad.
Thank you as always for your comments @panpiper 🛥🥂
Good footage and funky tunes... and always up beat commentary.
Awe the baby 🐋 🐳 🐋 so cute!!
Coming along nicely thank you for that!⚓️
I can’t wait for part 2
Us to.. 🤙
Best video yet Steve!! Really great pictures and videos!! That is one hell of a ship's horn eh' Steve!
Excellent video, thanks so muc!
Great ending ! Loving the content
Definitely your best work to date Steve. Great choice of music and awesome footage of the wales. I would like to know more about Loons deal with Necker Island / Sir Richard. Also further down the line it would be good to see a day in the life POV of the yacht videographer / content creator.
The Droooneee is doooown! In my worst Scottish Accent! But alas all was saved! Nice job Steve! And of course to Cap and all the awesome crew!
Great video Steve, loved the sunset shots as well as the low to the water drone shots.
Love watching what the crew are doing! Less so what the guests are up to.
Close call with the drone there LOL great video, you guys are ABSOLUTE legends!
Steve dodged a bullet on that one 😰
Enjoying your vids Steve... Lovely work 👏🏻
Epic whale chase indeed. Seeing the wildlife is one great aspect of your videos. Keep up the awesome content
Lovely place and great view of the areas,,nicely done,,thanks for sharing..😊
Good thing the crew don't wear white shorts :D Nice to see you so respectful of the whales and giving them distance. Really grinds my gears when people get too close.
This made me so happy to see this. Many thanks for every video that you post. Always warms my ❤ 🤗
Thank you for such a great comment 🛥🥂
Nice work with the drone whale shots!❤❤
Love that this video is longer!!
We're working on keeping them 20+ mins 😁
Sweet
So fun! Thanks guys!!❤
Breathtaking drone footage ❤ We will see you in Italy and about soon! Thank you
This makes me proper miss my Caribbean cruise, time to book another 😀
The Caribbean is the best. Definitely time to book another cruise. 😎
Found you through Lauren Landers tbh.. had to go back and catch up on what you are all about and was on the fence.. but then Capt Paul showed up and it all came together for me.. A truly personable crew set by his example.. Absolutely SMASHED the subscribe button.. Much love and Thanks so much for sharing
Hey Randy, welcome to the Channel. We love Lauren and the time we had with her. Thank you for the kind words.😁
Great video, look forward to the epic scenery in Europe and seeing all the crew especially the inside of the boat. I hope the crew on holidays have a good well earned rest. Enjoy the crossing LOON.
Not long now, crossing starts next week. 🛥🥂
Like your using the crew mote to explain what they are doing.
Nice filming in of the sunset with drone. Your settling in, and doing just fine Steve.
M/ Y Loon; Best in the Business!! More Nina svp 😏
The drone drama -- coming back for that!!
hopefully not too much more 🛥🥂
I love Loony Tuesdays! The Spotted Rays bring back memories made 25 years ago... thanks for bringing us along. Also, seems Steve may need some more Marine Horn exposure as evidenced in the closing scene lol... priceless.
Thanks as always Bubba. Sad that our Caribbean season is winding down but excited to get across the pond and back to the Mediterranean 🛥🥂
@@motoryachtloon I see you are already in Ft. Lauderdale, will there be transatlsantic vids along the way? Bon Voyage with fair winds and following seas...
Yep, we're in the process of stocking up and buying new camera equipment (drones) then on our way to the Med. 😎
Great video! I miss the more frequent interaction with the crew though
Great video, Stephen.
Not sure if there was a gear change but WOW the quality on this one is so much better!!! I'm so excited for more content! Love seeing the crew and the amazing things they do. Keep up the great work Loon! ♥
Thank you ☺️ We're working hard on upgrading and bringing the best quality video for you all 🛥🥂
great content. Keep up the good work!
Paigey is the best 😎🥰🥳
Steve rocked those whale views! Even if he wrecked a drone, we'd call it even...
I wish I could afford to sit at that beautiful beach set up 🙁
the views..WOW!
Isn't it the best? As this is our last Caribbean charter we're sad to be leaving but also excited to get over to the Med 🛥🥂
@@motoryachtloon Its already med season?! WHAT? I thought you guys hung around until hurricane season started and then made your escape?
Monaco GP at the end of May is the official start of the Med summer season
Steve, you will find that MY Loon being the number 1 charter YT channel that Captain Paul is hard task master with all crew, suggest you wear a few extra pairs of “Y Fronts” and be one step ahead of the Skipper. Great episode, great videography and a great crew. Take care all, be safe and God Bless 👍👍🙏🚢
Awesome vid Steve and crew! Oddly enough, when it's Loon vs Drone, the poor drone doesn't fair too well. Should keep a separate count of how many times Cpt Paul has to rescue the drone haha
I feel like having drones in the air so often really increases the probability of losing them, having them fall out of the sky etc.
Yea pretty much and luckily they’re insured. We just love to rub it in when they do crash. It’s just good banter 😁
Very cool video! Thank you for the wonderful insight view!
Can you show us sometime how you „normally“ land the drone on the ship?
To much screen time Steve, You need to have the crew on screen more then yourself. Like crew updates, what there up to and doing, Crew stories and just mucking around, You know fun stuff 😊
Looking forward to the vlog! Steve is really amping his game up!!
Quick question! Do you/other super yachts hire nurses on board?
bigger ones usually do but its more gigayacht size
👍👍
At least the drone was still dry :)
Like the video that you wrapped up with spirit animal and Lauren
They’re the best 😊
I am second ❤❤
better luck next time 😉🥈
If anyone is not watching these vids in 4K you are missing out big time 🤩
Good work Steve not dropping it in the water, but like the Capt said, research your flight zones. You are close to the airport, so you’ll always have that authorization zone. And DJI’s map does not always match the US FAA flight restrictions. For instance that whole area around Charlotte Amalie requires LAAANC authorization (maybe you did). I know we all want to get the shot, but if folks don’t start playing by the rules it’s only going to make the regulations that much worse, and we’ll probably end up loosing access to these amazing places to fly.
The camera quality is pretty good.... Like one of the few good ones on UA-cam. Within the Top 5 I think. Top 1 is MKBHD. Drone is like 25% of the other cameras quality... Nighttime seemed to be another camera...
much to research steve you have 🙃
Would love to see how we lands the drone on a moving boat. Ive done it and it’s not easy at all
Seaweed again this year
I’m first!
yeeew 🎉
The important question I think everyone may be thinking with the Caribbean season wrapping up is will we be getting an atlantic crossing series going the other way?
Yes! We’re currently in Florida preparing to cross 🛥️🤙
Can we get the dockhands to move Loon closer to the Florida Marina Cam?? Amadeus and Calypso are in the way...
I am another one hooked on this and Nina's channel.
Hahaha, sorry, next time we'll try harder. We'll post when we go through the bridge so you can all watch. 🛥🥂
Steve absolutely 💩 himself with the ship horn was the best, 2nd was meow man at the island haha
hahahaha 😹
And you get paid for this? I’m sure in between the diving and toys you deserve some fun. Well done lads and lasses!❤
Haha its a tough job but someones got to do it 😎
I was looking for y’all in st Thomas this past Wednesday. Didn’t see y’all. Hope to run into y’all one day in the bvi
We’re up in Florida now. Next time 🛥️😊
Capt. Paul, who sets the itinerary and the food menu? The charter broker or the Loon crew?
When guests go to dinner in a restaurant off the boat how are the cost covered? Is the visit part of the trip package or is it an additional cost that is payed as finish there trip before debarking?
I thought the table and chairs looked a little close to the bonfire 🙂
hahaha everyone had singed leg hairs that evening.. Captain Paul scooted the chairs back once he arrived on the beach. Franko got a little excited when given the instructions to build a small camp fire. 🔥😂
Question: have these videos helped you get your schedule for charters filled up?
I've gotta think it dosent hurt.
Great vid, as usual. I'm curious, question to Loon crew and, I guess yachties in general. If you had the opportunity to crew an expedition yacht, long passages, no tips, but getting to go places few see, would ya?
I guess that's a not a no, but f no 😆.
Maybe time to get custom software for the drones so you can fly anywhere and not hit nofly zones?
Steve is great, get the feeling Capt is being a bit hard on him. Butt from my perspective his work is brilliant!
Can someone explain or do a video on what is that boat you are towing around? What is its purpose and why tow it? Are there any people on it during towing. If not, what if it breaks loose from tow? Thanks
Great work Steve, thank you, I’m looking forward to seeing your content when you cross back over to Europe. Any idea when that will be? I know that a lot of the big cruise ships have already departed for the Med. Also, general question, I know Sean has moved on as has Blair, who else has gone and who else is new?
Thank you. We hope to depart Florida for the Mediterranean next week. Looking forward to getting to Europe and showing you our journey 🛥🥂
Need an emergency drone catcher net similar to an airvrat carrier!!
haha ok buying Steve a big butterfly net right now 😂
I love the Video but I would love it more if you Would Do a catch kill and eat Video.
We've been trying to, but unfortunately, we can't harvest Lobsters in the BVI. 😢
@@motoryachtloon Hint Lobsters are called Bugs where I am from. Lmao I am a Mainer. But non the less you guys do fish and it would make a great video of you guys doing a catch clean and cook fresh from the sea.
We'll try and get it done. 🤙
Thats why dji drones are no go.
Fantastic drone coverage of the whales, well done Steve your shots were awesome 😀
Come to st lucia
We're so bummed we didnt make it down there this winter. Hopefully next year 🛥🥂
What happened to the girls in this episode? Were they confined to barracks for bad behavior? They always make for entertaining content. Please bring them back ASAP.
Hi Captain Paul, how is it possible to avoid collisions with whales, containers or any debris?
Is it dangerous?
Could that damage a yacht and sink it?
