This is the perfect owner operator and/or liveaboard. Not too big, not too small. Well laid out. Big screens in the helm are super nice. Overhead clearance in the master is phenomenal. "with a boat like this, were going too far to be seen". Love it. Can't wait for the next video.
I was really impressed with the northern marine 57, although it would be nice to see a third cabin on this size of explorer yacht just so as to accommodate 2 single children or guests who are not a couple Steve.
On their website, it does show a 3rd berth with a single and a Pullman. Looks like from the virtual tour it’s an option that replaces the master bedroom with 2 cabins. The master is then swapped with the VIP at the front.
That was the first thing I noticed. A 57 foot full displacement boat with no room for the kids. They need to hire an interior designer to get away from the home improvement store look.
I was just in Anacortes, WA. two weeks ago and had lunch in the restaurant marina (seen in the video) and noticed this MV for sale. After lunch took my friends down to the dock, this vessel was certainly the nicest one that day, impressed all of my friends. What a surprise when this video arrived.
I took a tour of it. $4M. Nice heated bathroom floor tile, and was impressed by the sound proofing with the door between and the engine room and the master cabin.
Is it possible to have some kind of "pop up wall" between the galley and the pilot house? Just to connect both places but ready to be close in case of night navigation...Dream owner/operator yacht... In my opinion...Thank you for the video!
I used to be a nordhavn but now this boat took it to another level number 1 period and I own a gt 70 viking when I get tired of the smell of fish I'm going to this boat
Nice boat and all (except for those stone countertops everywhere which are a bit too much IMO), but placing those rectangular windows so close to the waterline on a boat that wants to be an "explorer" is asking for trouble and will be a pain in the ass in the long run.
Why? Commercial vessels only have one engine! 🙄 and you can fit a PTO from the generator if needed. One engine is fine. It's a myth amongst nervous twitchy boat owners (most of whom never go more than 30 miles from the coast) that you "need" two engines. Well, maybe you 'need' 3? What if the first two fail? Ridiculous...
Love this boat Butt as i mentioned before my concern is it's speed and rough waters in Alaska this nice boat would not make it rough waters great for parties though
I don’t know much about rough water rated boats. In your opinion, why doesn’t this cut it and what boat or yacht in the same size or Category is a better alternative?
@@EYE50MM I Believe its top speed is only 8 knots in calm waters 0_o in Alaskan waters that is not going to be enough i don't hate the boat so many are getting there panties all twisted up about my comments on it' speed, maybe when they start showing real world video's on deep open waters in mild to rough weather i could have a better opinion, until then ....
@@arcticthundergamer113 Oh, nice, thank for your insight. Yeah, 8 knots does seem pretty slow. I went back to watch the sea trial video and it tops out at 10.3 knots at 2150 rpm. It is still slow, however it only has a single 325HP John Deer engine. 14 knots and a steel hull would be great! Am I right? I know pretty much nothing about boats. They fascinate me though. As is, this comes with a Resin Infused Hull (learned from watching sea trial video). Personally, I absolutely love the design and features of the boat. Slow or not, I’d love to live on and own one, although I could never afford it.
@@EYE50MM i grew up in Alaskan waters and the sea can change in minutes and would hate to see the awesome yacht go down and your right a more powerful motor would be better most fishing boats i know of that chance the big seas have at least 15 knots of speed and are built for big open waters, still love this boat though
price on application, I can afford it and just want to know, not fill out a bunch of forms and wait for a call back. I hate these manufacturers who think they are special, Kadey Krogen, Nordhavn etc tell you their prices, no problem and probably better boats as well if they have nothing to hide.
Like the video but not the boat. The owner probably specified 2 staterooms with double beds leaving bunk space for only 2 couples, and the beds look a little small. That's a lot of boat with no room for family.
@@darthkek1953 Not safe enough for ocean crossings. Or exploring the coast of New Zealand - 6+ meter waves are not unusual. Fixing an Engine / Gearbox / shaft / prop problem is heavy weather is zero fun.
It uses the generator with a power takeoff as the backup. On the Northern Marine website and in BoatTEST's previous video about this boat, they talk about the pros and cons of Northern Marine's design versus a wing engine, like Nordhavn typically uses.
@@madpete6438 True, and that is one of the pros/cons that is discussed in the Northern Marine and BoatTEST vids. I think Northern Marine maintains that the design of their hull, keel, etc. protects the rudder and prop from logs and other hazards so that losing the rudder and/or prop would be very rare. Every design has advantages and disadvantages. Choose the one that you believe is best.
I don't know this one looks so cheap compared to the Nordhavn and Bearing explorer yachts. I actually thought nothing could look worse than a Fleming, yet this one does in my opinion

Captain Steve that laser tape measure is the best thing you've bought in a while.
😅
Nice to see Northern Marine making a comeback for sure.
Quite simply put, Stunning!
Thanks Captain Steve.
Let me start by saying the blazer is a nice touch. Lovely finishes, feels like a home.
I can see why this is an award winning yacht. Beautiful 😍
How refreshing to see all walnut rather then the typical teak.
Beautiful boat with great fit and finish.
I LOVE THIS BOAT and I LOVE THE PEOPLE WHO BUILT IT! What a fine piece of art!
Fantastic looking vessel.
Absolutely our new favorite sub 60 Trawler. Just beautiful.
Love to hear this!
Absolutely stunning
Great job with the walk through. I couldn't nit pick anything.

This is the one for me, thank you for your informative video.
SUPERB FINISHES !! WOW !!
OMG 😲 It's beautiful!
Perfect Size !

Very nice!
Capt Steve upgrading to the laser tape measure. I approve
Seems much nicer than a china-made Nordhavn
I used to be a nordhavn but now
this boat took it to another level
number 1 period
and I own a
gt 70
viking
when I get tired of the smell of fish I'm going to this boat
Great review, thanks!
Lovely boat
Would it be wrong be make accomodations for a first mate in the lazarette?
Wow… stunning indeed. Does this explorer have a steel hull?
Composite resin I believe
Wow, NM out Nordhavn'd Nordhavn!
Nice boat and all (except for those stone countertops everywhere which are a bit too much IMO), but placing those rectangular windows so close to the waterline on a boat that wants to be an "explorer" is asking for trouble and will be a pain in the ass in the long run.
Good point.
Nice but I would want 2 main engines.

The galley is in close proximity to?
🇿🇦 Lekker man lekker
👋👍👌👏
Price?
Why have i not subscribed before this?
Awesome video what material is the haul made out of ???????? Thank you🤫😃
It's a resin infused hull. Wish it was steel but, it is still an awesome lil yacht!

Rough waters? This is an ocean going vessel, much like a Nordhavn. It’s made to take any and all waters.

A 57 with two suites seems a bit disappointing.
I agree with you. If you own such a vessel you want to be able to take more than 2 others with you.
Only 2 cabins.....🤔
You don't need 4 cabins for a couple's cruiser...
@@darthkek1953 OK
