One of the best yacht walk throughs that I've seen. The tour guide isn't afraid to get right down on the deck to show you something. Very knowledgeable about the whole boat.
What shines thru in all of this guys video walkthroughs is he really knows what he's talking about, you can tell he has lived and worked on these boats for years and really knows how it all works. The complexity of these boats is much to much for most people, i suspect people like him are hard to find..
Wish all the presenters of Nordhavn boats could be this good. Very informative, small but important information. Well done James , thoroughly enjoyed, and love the idea of cutting out the hole for improving the view out of the STBD FWD windows
As fascinating as the boat and the tour of it was....I was more fascinated with how the tour guide was always standing on one leg when the camera wasn't on him for long periods of time. I used to do that as a kid to relieve stress on my back and hips when standing for a long time. I remember seeing Australian Aboriginies doing that in National Geographic magazines and on TV long ago and one day I tried it when my back was getting tired and it worked. I'm not sure if that's why they, or he, did it but it sure helped me. As for the boat....that is a fine boat. In the past I could never get behind a "trawler" style yacht over the more traditional designs but Nordhavn really forces a person to rethink that. When the funds are finally available...it's going to be a really tough choice.
Great review, but I was thinking that perhaps James has a bad back which I suffer from as well. I am going to try this trick , a very informative video on all levels .
Followed this boat and all its adventures - sad to see it up for sale, I really hope the existing owner is safe and well and wish him all the best for the future.
In my head, I've already decided to sail my Nordhavn from Australia, over to the US - especially for this dude to give it the once over. That is, if I ever get a Nordhavn.
If you have the money for a Nordhavn you would fly him over to Australia for the pre purchase inspection & a couple of training days for you to learn the ropes.
@@peterwaugh9416 You're spot on there. Perhaps he would be part of the initial purchase process. But what if he suggests redoing the roof panels, upgrading systems, etc? We'd need his workshop and staff. My daydream still sees me sailing to the US, with following winds and sea, miraculously bypassing Covid quarantine, staying in Florida for a couple of months, while he completely overhauls the boat as he sees fit. I also tend to daydream my cheque book has a cape and wears it's underwear on the outside...
A fantastic tour. This guy is great. He's like a friend showing you his new boat. Nordhavns aren't just boats, they're works of art, and engineering marvels.
You are one of the most "down to Earth" contributors I have ever watched, UA-cam or otherwise. I am also a Nordhavn dreamer (I'll never be able to afford one, but I have come to learn they are the best of the best). Thank you for this tour, it made my day. I'll be in FMB in February, if you're anywhere near there, the drinks are on me, my friend :). Cheers!
Love watching James do these videos. So informative and knowledgeable about these boats and he is the guy we all want to listen to when you are wanting to buy or learn more about a boat. He is Awesome. Thank you James for such a great job.
Love the engine room! Never been in it, but I can spot and recognize every part in easy immaculate access. The ship as a whole is the best I've seen. You could live on this comfortably and never want for a house on land. This is the first boat I've seen that actually makes me want to motor yacht. If I had the money.
Thank you so much for sharing this. I've worked for Carlisle & Finch for 31 years and I've never seen a yacht in person. This was special...and wow, what a beautiful yacht. Chrissy Banks
I was watching this during my lunch time... Man... You are the mix of Mark Anthony and Charlie Sheen... it was very very entertaining and of course very knowledgeable... full of good information... I enjoyed it... my favourite was the Gin clear water on the Bahamas...🍸🌊🏖🏝🛥😂 and I am not a big drinker... but I would enjoy to sit with You on the bar chair... drinking the rum and coke... 🥃🥃You mentioned, and watch the chef... and of course listening Your story more...😂 Thank You 🙏❤
If you want to grow your channel keep it 25-35 mins a walk through, then do a separate extended video called extended version. Also add a rough price in the title as it draws viewers in. See Aquaholic channel for example.
@@HarveyPaul007 Thanks for the tip Harvey. You can’t please everyone but this might be a good way to cover all bases. I could probably do a 3 hr walkthrough and talk about many more systems but I’m afraid I’ll gather too many thumbs down for doing it !
@@jamesknight9922 No worries James. Just make sure you put a link to the extended version in the description each time and vice versa. Also adding the price seems to definitely pull in the hits on other yachting channels. All the best from England UK . Happy New year in advance ✨
James Knight. You are a breath of fresh air when it comes to your walkthroughs, because your unbiased descriptions come from a passion of sailing and engineering. Warts and all.
I really appreciate the humor behind the walk through. It is very nice. I am really liking these yacht's more and more. They are very much like a real home on the water. Especially the galley. No, really, especially the galley. I could spend serious prep time in there. That glass drop was extra fun. Thank you.
Best used Nordhavn I have ever seen! Thank you so much for the walkthrough. Camera work is the best so far. The ideal length for a comfortable viewing. Your videos are so honest, informative and interesting. Please keep it up I am loving it. 👍
Fantastic video and a beautiful boat!! If I win the euromillions lottery, I might have to buy the N76 Spirit of Ulysses and travel to Florida for some expert advice and craftsmanship! :) Thank you
Stunning. If I was circumnavigating the world over the deep oceans, I dont think Id want to be in any other boat. This thing is a Sherman tank for the open sea. You wont get there in record time, but you WILL get there.
this was actually incredibly laid back & interesting... my only criticism would be the cabins & general lounge area seemed very dark to view. However its very rare to see issues with design being pointed out "also nabbing a cold drink lol" no, overall brilliant review.. pity the boat wasn't taken out to display how the boat handles the open oceans, & general cruising comfort etc well done!
What a great walk through, this man knows his stuff and the way he approached everything is amazing, "there is a drink fridge here, oh I will have one of those" 😂😂love it. Now that's the way to sell, no bullshit, just honest information
Very stylish yacht built out with many extra features that make it very comfortable. If not for Covid this would make a nice charter with it fitted all the necessary safety hardware.
Love this boat, please make a longer video the haters are just wrong your in-depth videos are not only great but useful in understanding what path to take in a future purchase.
Most modern mirror don't fog hve great storage & light up around from behind. Nice touch if no vanity deck for lady room in design, in bath vanity or desk in room.
I love the Nordhavns, they look like they were designed for harsher conditions than most motoryachts, they’re classy, they are typically more efficient but, most importantly they look like they could better handle a fat clumsy person such as myself and my fat clumsy malamute.
It’s as good as I’ve come to expect from you , outstanding however it seemed a little rushed as mentioned in a previous comment don’t listen to the haters your hour long videos are so involved and interesting they feel like half that. Thanks for another great video
Brilliant as always, Pinch Me could use one of your vids. A Yacht presenter with your knowledge and manner could represent any brand. BTW.. The sound worked fine for me.
I Am a high railing guy as long as u can open u to get fish on every 10ft or so, the higher the better I say. The 2 rear benches need the fancy RV table tops too.

This guy should do all of your walkthroughs. He is amazing.
Yes, if he invest in a separate microphone. The sound is terrible
I will watch every single walkthrough of Ammonite. It’s the most perfect Nordhavn in the fleet.
One of the best yacht walk throughs that I've seen. The tour guide isn't afraid to get right down on the deck to show you something. Very knowledgeable about the whole boat.
Among the best yacht reviews I’ve ever watched
What shines thru in all of this guys video walkthroughs is he really knows what he's talking about, you can tell he has lived and worked on these boats for years and really knows how it all works. The complexity of these boats is much to much for most people, i suspect people like him are hard to find..
This guys marketing skills, coupled with his wits and charisma is so good he'll be able to sell ice Eskimos.
Wish all the presenters of Nordhavn boats could be this good. Very informative, small but important information. Well done James , thoroughly enjoyed, and love the idea of cutting out the hole for improving the view out of the STBD FWD windows
How about speed, range, fuel capacity?
@@jeffrobdine Hi ,Jsee, not owning the vessel I believe it will be MAX 9 Kts, approx 3,500NM - 4000NM and sorry but the fuel capacity I'm unsure of
@@roycej.spencer3493 Thank you Royce
Best Walktrough of any Vessel EVER!!! This guy was awesome!
I have to agree .. This guy is awesome
I love how you have no issues of showing what you also DON'T like. So many walkthroughs is just the "likes".
As fascinating as the boat and the tour of it was....I was more fascinated with how the tour guide was always standing on one leg when the camera wasn't on him for long periods of time.

Great review, but I was thinking that perhaps James has a bad back which I suffer from as well. I am going to try this trick , a very informative video on all levels .
1) I really want one of these. Can I pay over 1000/2000 years?
2) The presenter's deep knowledge of these boats really comes through.
Followed this boat and all its adventures - sad to see it up for sale, I really hope the existing owner is safe and well and wish him all the best for the future.
Makes a cameo around 15:50
I love the 4 pullout pantry that is better than any house w/out a butler & pantry.
Loved your straight up no bullshit tour was bloody refreshing. Hope there’s more to watch.
Top job 👌🏼🇦🇺
In my head, I've already decided to sail my Nordhavn from Australia, over to the US - especially for this dude to give it the once over. That is, if I ever get a Nordhavn.

@@damienquinn you have similar dreams. Just wish my bank balance could keep up
You are worse than me, good one man 😂😂😂😂😂
Dream boat. Excellent tour. His knowledge of Nordhavn’s is unparalleled.
Fantastic presentation. Mesmerizing. Lots of integrity and product knowledge. Nice that no-bullshit still happens. Please keep up the great work.

Incredibly impressive and interesting to watch someone who knows so much about the details of a vessel!
Nordhavn has set the gold standard for pilot houses.
Love watching James do these videos. So informative and knowledgeable about these boats and he is the guy we all want to listen to when you are wanting to buy or learn more about a boat. He is Awesome. Thank you James for such a great job.
Thank you Terry. That means a lot :)
Oh mate! I was hoping to see a proper one hour in depth review on this one as well..
Incredibly beautiful yacht 🛥! This particular yacht by Nordhavn is ☝️of my absolute favorite 🤩! Great video!
That’s what I call a honest down to earth review, fantastic job well done.
This is one of the finest designed nordhavn i ever seen.
Love the engine room! Never been in it, but I can spot and recognize every part in easy immaculate access. The ship as a whole is the best I've seen. You could live on this comfortably and never want for a house on land. This is the first boat I've seen that actually makes me want to motor yacht. If I had the money.
You are so fantastic, I wish I knew why there have not been any videos in the last four months. Thank you so much 😊
Well.... now you have a new one to watch ;)
Praise Odin! You’re back! Thanks for uploading again. Your true fans are patient. These take time lol.
Haha, thank you! They are indeed quite time consuming and we will keep them coming!
Subscribed! I watched the other videos too. I wish every boat/yacht reviewer was so knowledgeable and thorough!
The windows by the walkway that don’t have any view, are fantastic for airing out the boat in bad weather.
Well done video. Nice to see the detail ! Ammonite is a beauty, and very much enjoyed her tour. We will miss her in BC Canada.
the captain's head /helm head & office is a great feature.
My man came with one liners for days
Yes, this guy is good... thank you , I'll watch more of your vids

I’d love to see a 2 hour plus walkthrough on this one .
This is most relaxing yacht review I have ever seen! Well done !
if I ever start drinking again, it's gonna be with this guy! Great vibe
Best used Nordhavn I have ever seen! Thank you so much for the walkthrough. Camera work is the best so far. The ideal length for a comfortable viewing. Your videos are so honest, informative and interesting. Please keep it up I am loving it. 👍
Thank you! Your comments mean a great deal to us, we will continuously improve with every video!
@@yachttechinc1754 what's the asking price for this?? And what's the range on a full tank bro?
Very nice walk-through of Kajs boat. Wish I had taken the chance to visit when I was asked to.
This walkthrough was.....so cool. 😂
Seriously though....OUTSTANDING job. Thank you! 👊🏻👌🏻
Great walkthrough , a no nonsense practical look by a knowledgeable guide.
Wow, that's a really honest and refreshing review in simple language from someone who obviously knows what he's talking about! Really enjoyed it...
Off all the walkthrough's on Nordhavn's i've seen, this is by far the best. Keep them coming please.
JC this yacht is beautiful! Well done James! We will meet someday when I buy my 62 with your help. 😉
Fantastic video and a beautiful boat!! If I win the euromillions lottery, I might have to buy the N76 Spirit of Ulysses and travel to Florida for some expert advice and craftsmanship! :) Thank you
Can you do a standard length version? It felt rushed. Maybe 78 minutes long, minute per foot! My new Nordhavn dreamboat!
We are likely to make an "In Depth Review" on the Nordhavn 76, thanks for your thoughts!
Stunning. If I was circumnavigating the world over the deep oceans, I dont think Id want to be in any other boat. This thing is a Sherman tank for the open sea. You wont get there in record time, but you WILL get there.
this was actually incredibly laid back & interesting... my only criticism would be the cabins & general lounge area seemed very dark to view. However its very rare to see issues with design being pointed out "also nabbing a cold drink lol"
no, overall brilliant review.. pity the boat wasn't taken out to display how the boat handles the open oceans, & general cruising comfort etc
well done!
What a great walk through, this man knows his stuff and the way he approached everything is amazing, "there is a drink fridge here, oh I will have one of those" 😂😂love it. Now that's the way to sell, no bullshit, just honest information
Great video, hopefully there's an 86 coming!
I love your videos, James! The longer ones are the best. Keep up the great work.
all the old table tops can b made into seating or bench or tanning bed super chunky sturdy stuff, secure any weather.
Masterful walk-through as always.
Love your crane stance at around 5 minutes into the video. It's sort of a karate kid maneuver 😂
This was a terrific video that presented this yacht in a really frank and straightforward manner. Enjoyed it enormously. Thanks.
Alot of boat here to see. Good tour and good to see you back to sending us video to watch.👍👍👍
The only mistake you made was not using a wireless lapel mic, otherwise a fantastic walkthrough.
Well it’s official, this is definitely more boat than I could handle. Great walkthrough.
I can’t decide if this boat is my favorite or SIMBIL. We’ll I have a very long time to decide. Lol. Keep up the great videos.
Very stylish yacht built out with many extra features that make it very comfortable. If not for Covid this would make a nice charter with it fitted all the necessary safety hardware.
Love this boat, please make a longer video the haters are just wrong your in-depth videos are not only great but useful in understanding what path to take in a future purchase.
This guy has a great job and what is more inspiring is the passion he has for it. Bravo sir bravo!
I'd buy a boat from this guy.
Oh, yeah.
The electronics make me feel right at home being a retired pilot!
Why do the helm stations not have high def cameras showing the full ship from above on both sides at least?
Haha, this is the most succint walkthrough you ever did on this channel. But I wish it's longer!
Lovely video! More great information. Thanks for doing this!
Thank you! ;)
I want it!!! Beautiful boat, only in my dreams!!!! Waiting for part 2 on Ammonite ;)
Most modern mirror don't fog hve great storage & light up around from behind. Nice touch if no vanity deck for lady room in design, in bath vanity or desk in room.

Just prescribed to you,another great video.👍👍👍💯
Ammonite, N78-14, she is the best by one of the finest boat building companies in the world.
This is a very good, in depth, fun, interesting walk around.
Do a full in depth review of this one too!
I don’t want to go to a pub with this guy, I’d lose.
Brilliant as always, Pinch Me could use one of your vids. A Yacht presenter with your knowledge and manner could represent any brand. BTW.. The sound worked fine for me.
those fancy RV tables that move in all direction for the 2 tables in a U shape area behind the helm seat.
What an awesome guy :)
This was one of the best "Walkthroughs" I have ever seen.
Thank you sir!
I Am a high railing guy as long as u can open u to get fish on every 10ft or so, the higher the better I say. The 2 rear benches need the fancy RV table tops too.
Well done. I want that pantry in my next house.
There's something special about exploration yachts.
James the boats a salt amplifier. Great for the coral reefs.
Cool as a cucumber as usual James!!! "bit short though mate" would be my only criticism. Keep them coming though.
I like the heated towel bar 😀👍
Wow I love that vessel I would buy it direct but I am just à poorly truck driver but I like your vidéos and i keep dreaming
I feel the video was cut short , but excellent walk through .
I am studying up to buy a starter yacht like this but I won't be online to buy till after 2025 I just want to get all the research I can
Might be my favorite boat.
Great job with the Video James .
One hell of a yacht ‼️🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Hello, did you ever share what your favorite Nordhavn list looks like? f not, would you please share and give a short explanation for the list order?
Absolutely Love this yacht.
Has to be dark always?
Too dark for me, enjoy ,!!
Gorgeous yatch!
