Great points about depreciation. Frankly most yachts this old suffer from design choices that have been clearly eclipsed by more modern yachts. This one by contrast feels much newer, not just because of how well maintained and upgraded she is, but because her design does not have many of the failings I see on other similar-aged yachts.
Enjoyable video. The lack of stabilizers was really noticed. I wonder how difficult it would be to add them? Aside from those, there's very little I would consider changing; she looks great for her age!
A good addition to the video with Tristan Mortlock. With a 35 year old yacht you clearly need to understand when full overhauls of the engines and generators will be required. The accommodations are attractive and in excellent condition.
So much to like about this yacht, clearly age is not a limitation of a quality yacht builder. I love the bar it looks a lovely space to chat and watch the world go by.
She's gorgeous many more yachts of today do not even come close. It was built of premium quality. I love it . If I had a chance, I wouldn't think twice of buying it.
It’s wonderful how this yacht does not look or feel like your living inside a tree!!!!….I think it is the interior design choices that make it look and feel so up to date….
What a beauty! Best part about it is that it does not have a dated interior. Clearly all the owners have taken great care of her. Nice to hear about it just completing the survey. I’ve often wondered about these surveys, is it just a check on maintenance paperwork, or is it an actual survey similar to one does when buying a yacht?
David, I'm sorry to say but, I was getting sea sick on this yacht. Was the stabilization not working or wasn't it equipped with any kind of stabilization? Thanks for showing us around this 35-year old beauty of the sea.
Made 30 crossings on it's own hull, has noticeable speed, well laid out,...yeah I would say this is a good yacht to buy amd it just went through it's ABS which is so expensive and detailed. This is an awesome yacht. And it dispenses SPARKLING WATER!!! LOL. That was one of the weirdest things I heard for people choosing a charter yacht.
Interesting how Kristen and I share the same area code of (727), which indicates that she hails from Pinellas County as I did before moving to the Space Coast (Cape Canaveral area) 6-1/2 years ago. Missed seeing the galley though. This is definitely a worth-while investment yacht that is worth owning in my opinion. As always, thank you. I do wonder if there is a stabilizer onboard as the water line in the beginning of the video showed what appeared to be a wave height of around 2-3', lasting 4-5 seconds each?
It looks 80s more from inside than outside. I've always like this kind of hull design, sort of conservative perhaps. It looks very stable when navigating. I would enjoy seeing it break waves on a its way to Bahamas... I've never been too crazy about the 70's or 80's designing trends (a little insipid, I guess) even though I had a lot of fun then; I prefer the 60s or 90's on. This yacht is in really good condition, though. Very well distributed inside areas. Yes, the upper decks are glorious. The advantage of buying a yacht this old is, of course, size / price.... ⛵
Great video again David. I noticed a lot of roll in this video...has Lion Share no stabilisers? I was amazed to see how much they have squeezed in to the main deck and still have room for the owners cabin and crew quarters on that one deck, where the crew are normally downstairs and f'ward. Interesting to say the least. I agree with your assessment in terms of investment with respect to older yachts. The only downside I see of an older yacht is that you just don't get the larger windows now seen on new yachts, as evidenced by the port lights in the 2nd main cabin - which I would have preferred as a owners cabin, except for that very fact. It is a bit more claustrophobic than the main cabin above and than that of other yachts today. Still, a smashing yacht nonetheless!!! 👍
No, they do it like we always used to do in the 80's: everyone runs from side to side, with the captain calling out the timing. That's why those yachts have really strong railings. The yacht stays stable and everyone stays fit. Nowadays they have those new-fangled electric stabilisers and everyone is fat.
@5:50 he shows you the door to crew quarters and an overlay showing they are clearly on the lower deck. CQ's on the main deck - that "would" be fancy - but neigh, that isn't where they are.
Yes indeed, I have noticed older yachts are like older cars in that, at a certain point in their lifespan they sell based on what they are, what you are getting for your money, and not the year they were built. Also, like a car, if you put lots of money into something older to do an extensive rebuild, you aren't going to get much of that money back when it's time to sell. After all, it's still a 30 year old design. I have seen a few classic (30 to 40yo) yachts that have had 15 or 20 million dollar refits that are still selling in the same price range as well cared for originals. A yacht with an expensive refit will be at the top of that range but whoever spent those big bucks rebuilding an older yacht is only getting a small % of that money back on resale. Anyways, the point he is making here is, there are boats out there that you could buy, enjoy as is, for a few years and then sell it for what you paid, or close to what you paid. If you do your research and buy the right boat, you could enjoy it for 4 or 5 years and, in the end, only pay for maintenance/operating costs. Lets face it, any large yacht will cost big money to own but, if you buy the right boat and make good decisions while you own it, you can minimize, or possibly even eliminate, the depreciation factor and that is huge.
In getting an older yacht you don't get some of the modern tech, like zero speed stabilizers. They could be retro-fitted but at what cost? Sadly I am subject to seasickness, so this boat is off my list. I am old enough that the 80's design feels comfortable.
Good afternoon all your videos are so well done everything is perfect the only thing is that went somebody is in the camera have to move with the boat if you see the boat that is rocking the boat is moving that guy that he's taking that video he should move also in the vocal lessons you go left with the rocking of the boat because in the video it look like at everything this moment for such a big boat it doesn't have the stabilizer
Would be great if you share the used music names / track IDs in all your Videos. They are realy good in underlining the positive moods, not only in this once again inspiring and professional video. Greetings to the video crew aswell from Germany. :)
Wow. I was waiting for you tell us when it was totally refurbished and how many millions it cost. But it's just been maintained that way?!! With just new equipment added? Again, wow.
Not that I'm ever going to buy one... but I think the only thing she's missing IS a bow area for relaxing. But seating and lounging - especially when berthed stern to and wanting some privacy. Whether it's early morning coffee or an evening cigar it might be the ONE thing I think it's lacking - along with Zero Speed stabilizers. 😐😐
I guess they have spent exactly what they feel is the correct amount for a boat of its age etc. but interior doesn’t feel very exclusive in most areas. New and fresh, yes, but not luxurious. I would expect the charter price to be lower than some other similar size boats
It still narks me off when tenders are removed from the boat deck. Having that silly bar on the aft deck makes no sense either, waste of space. I remember when she was launched and how special she was compared to the stuff Italy was pumping out at the time.
Lionshare is a lovely yacht but the interior is far too sterile being just white, gray and black for my personal taste. She would require a refit to bring life back into her décor if I was to use the yacht solely for personal use. The yacht is at an attractive asking price and worth considering as a charter business opportunity.

Ya… I also noticed the yacht tilting left and right rather obviously 😨
Got seasick looking at the video
First yacht I've seen in a long time that has a real comfortable home feel.
LIONSHARE being built in the 80s is just amazing. It is in such amazing shape. I wish I had the means of buying her. I'd be a proud owner.
Were the stabilizers turned off? It looks really rocky.

Hi David. Awesome yacht. Stylish interior design, especially the atrium staircase mirrors and bright colours. Great walkthrough video tour thanks 😊
There are lots of beautiful yachts and lots of great presenters, and I don't know what it is, David, but I like your videos more than most.
Thank you very much!
She's gorgeous many more yachts of today do not even come close. It was built of premium quality. I love it . If I had a chance, I wouldn't think twice of buying it.
David, it's another one of those classic timeless builds.
It’s wonderful how this yacht does not look or feel like your living inside a tree!!!!….I think it is the interior design choices that make it look and feel so up to date….
Looks like it moves around a lot under anchor
Is it my imagination, or is the boat rocking more than I see in other videos? Stabilizers?
My thoughts too would make me sea sick 🤢🤮
I don't think they had them for yachts back then, probably not added. It was definitely noticeable. Fortunately, I don't get sea sick.
I must admit, it was quite choppy out there while we were filming…at least I was able to share the authentic “life at sea” experience!
@@Yachtsforsaleblog lovely yacht though 😍
@@Yachtsforsaleblog Amazing yacht regardless. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Really Nice Yacht. 1980's Build , but looks Modern/new. Nice owners suite.
3:59 I love how David always does his own stunts.

@2:40 I was getting seasick and could see the boat rocking
she looks like a proper yacht. beautiful profile.
I kept looking for Crockett and Tubbs to show up.
It looks 80s more from inside than outside. I've always like this kind of hull design, sort of conservative perhaps. It looks very stable when navigating.

I love the motion of the yacht!
Only this guy could try and convince you that a walk thru day head is somehow a desirable feature 😊
Thank you David... that is a lot of Super Yacht for the $$$
Very tastefully decorated,not too OTT.
Hi David! What would be the positions of a 7 person crew? I'm guessing: Captain, First Officer, Cook, Engineer, Bos'un, Two Interior/Deck combo?
Can you explain how much would be to add heli pad on older boat?
They better pay you when it sells...that was very persuasive.

Also - ua-cam.com/video/MV8J96UR9tw/v-deo.html (11:58 & 12:01) ... for sure shows in below deck.
I almost missed this video because it did not feature an obvious yacht in the thumbnail.
Hi Peter, thought I’d try something different for a change!

Like adding heli pad above deck on back as not to lose space on boat
You never showed the galley. Not in this video or the other one
one of my new fav. channels : )
The lack of stabilizers really shows on video. Is it difficult to retrofit them?
Tristan is alright, but your style is uniquely appreciated.
I am surprised she was built in the 80s. She looks much newer - classy lady!
Nice size island hopping. Buy 100m if open seas and no worries of land be seen in two -3 week’s

Love this yacht. A lot for the money. Why no zero. stab?
Stabilizers???

why you not show the engine room?
Wow. I was waiting for you tell us when it was totally refurbished and how many millions it cost. But it's just been maintained that way?!! With just new equipment added? Again, wow.
No zero speed stabiliser though.
I can't understand why he didn't help himself to a cold beer🍺

You have too many annoying commercial interruptions making your video unwatchable.
