    A super boat, and seems pretty good value (as far as boats go). Lots to love about it - the central helm, good cabin space, tons of room in the cockpit together with the airy lower galley/saloon. Having a wet heads is a bit of a shame, but a reasonable compromise. I guess where the outboard is stored would be room enough for a small genset. If it was my boat you wouldn't be touring it on such a nice day, We'd be out on the sea!

    Great boat and I love the style. The dealer could have 'tarted' it up a bit, wood deck has got green discoloring and looks weathered, seals in storage lockers and transom shower have gunk in them. Maybe all this helps the price..

It's a lovely boat...I love these small boats, they are infinitely more interesting than the multi million £ yachts...And I love to see dials, round dials instead of digital read-outs.

    From late Spring, through Summer with a fun early Fall, this boat is both capable and comfortable. Not over equipped, yet well designed. If Utility had a Beauty Mark it would rival this boat (make sense?).

    I stumbled across Aquaholics by accident the other week and I am now addicted to your channels. You should cross promote your other channels, i.e., motoholics for a few seconds at the end of your outtakes or intro at start or end of the video via graphics as again only realised you have more than one channel 😉 by accident..... Well edited great videos and great walthroughs on the boats. I love your technical insights re electronics and insights into the engines, especially. I think you have one on cars now too... 🤔 keep up the awesome work 👏 🙌

      @AQUAHOLIC thanks for your personal comment.. bless you. What a nice bloke. I would really welcome 🙏 a little 3 or 4 part mini series on buying a boat that the average man in the street can afford, not ones that cost the same as an average house in the UK! For example, your boat is absolutely awesome. Do a little mini series for boating for dummies! How to buy a 30k boat. Your top 10 30k boats for example. What to look out for in buying a 30k boat. I loved the one you did with the costs of running your boat for example. Maybe you have done one, but I haven't come across it yet , for example, a 30k boat to buy for the average Joe to insure it, store it in winter and licences needed, etc... vhf marine licences does the boat need a licence or registration with authorities, etc... like a boating for newbies. How far out should you venture without RYA training for example. What do you do of it gets really misty or weather changes and you don't know how to navigate or have no radar etc. Just a rough idea for boating newbies. That would make a great little series. Like add ons to your how to fuel a boat etc. loved them. Very informative and great narration and editing as mentioned. You can see your passion for boating coming through and clearly your baby. I really enjoyed your mini weekend away series too, and you meet the owners fantastic too 😀 thanks again. Maybe as an idea 💡 add a top 5 things I like about this boat and 5 things that could be better... A bit like carwow. It's great! You are the carwow for boats!

    • @BillWalkerSD
      @BillWalkerSD 2 роки тому

      @@snoopydogg1 "How far out should you venture without RYA training for example." No farther than you can swim. The world has far too many ignorant boaters, and they're always getting into or causing trouble. Search UA-cam for boat fails if you want examples. Seriously, training in almost any complex endeavor is worth its weight in gold. Operating a boat is much more complicated than driving a car, but a bit less so than flying an airplane.
      Likewise, "if you don't know how to navigate" you shouldn't be going offshore.
      There are tons of good books on these subjects, but as I'm based in the US, perhaps Nick or someone could recommend some that are specific to UK conditions (and to the fact that buoy colors are swapped to opposite sides of the channel!).
      I love some of your ideas, though! I'm not sure they're quite in Nick's remit, but videos on those topics are out there, and his monthly used boat column in MBY covers lower-cost boats from time to time. Oh, and have you watched Nick's videos of Marianne going through her RYA training?

    You mentioned "Let's get nautical" in the video - I'd buy that shirt.
