When I was 6 years old had Polio wore leg braces lived in Florida cleaned a neighbor's Pool cause it was green cause just wanted help him keep it clean turned out he was the Captain for Frank Sinatra I believe that very boat he took to see Frank Sinatra but he wasn't there that day as kid I was hurt but went home crying I guess Frank heard about it a limousine came by the next morning picked me up took me to that boat there's Frank Sinatra and Me and the Captain and Frank Sinatra went fishing the whole Day!! It's hard not to forget a moment that made unforgettable's memories in my life!!!; )
WOW! Good for you mate!
Great memories for sure!
Congrats,🤗👍✌️
How are you doing now? I hope all is well. Thank you for sharing.
I love old yachts like this, so much class and style.
Wow! A tribute to the old girl!!! Wonderful that the new owner had the grit to go the extra mile and make her whole again, (with extras!). Thank you for a great video!
Back in '69' on arriving in Monaco, where Malahne was based, my mate John and I ended up as crew members after traveling around Europe for months in our mini van, she was owned then by Sam Spiegel of Columbia Films, Great times , lots of fun good food , wine and Girl's , she was a lovely Yacht , crewing on her was one of the best times in our travels, Great crew from 1st mate down , Fantastic memories of all the people we met ' La Chatham.' better known as Rosie's Bar , was the place to meet all your friends, still remember them all. Richard.
Fascinating. I did not want to see the video end. Great history. Glad it was restored and modernized with bow thrusters.
What a kerfuffle disassembling the gang plank! As expensive as they are this great video amply demonstrated why modern, automated passarelles are worth every penny. IMHO one of your finest vlogs!
I couldn't believe what I was seeing, it was like something out of `Monty Python' or `Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em'...
Excuse me for asking, but what is kerfuffle?
The crew seems a bit green. It could be done in just 30 sec if needed 😎
@@asafaust8869 A load of prattling about so they dont scratch the paint work!
All about period detailing, how they did it in the 30’s
What an awesome and well researched video. One of your best. 👏👏👏. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks.
Wow that was relaxing and informative!! It is nice to see some classic style old time vintage yachts still appreciated.
I love your channel. Thank you for the great work
My god if I would be a crew member this Gangway would really f*** me up🤪😂😉🤣
Lol exactly what I was thinking smh
I bet those bits have taken a dunk more than once
@@visionist7 lol yeah very high podibility 👌🤣
My uncle crewed on her in the film star days, the movie "last of Sheila" was set on board.
Extremely well done my Friend! The history on this vessel is very interesting to know. Your sources of knowledge take your channel well above the rest. Nice job!
Thank you!
For real! Includes and does many other knowledgeable subjects that other similar channels do not. Thank you!
I love these vids giving an insight to the day to day processes on board. Many thanks!
Such a cool video and such a beautiful yacht! Thanks for taking the time to point out all of the little details. That is exactly why I appreciate your channel! Thank you so much!!!
What a beautiful piece of history this ole girl is. Ever thankful that people have the means and carry out restoring these amazing vessels. Well done. Well done. Could’ve watched this for hours.. thank you for explaining exactly what was taking place as well. Greeting from East Tennessee in the U.S..
She's 1/2 the size, but she has 2x the class and style of the newer yachts.
Just like a fine wine a beauty like that gets better with time......................!
I agree. Way more class.
Surely they can come up with a better way of deploying/shipping the gangway. Even with the narrow stern.
@@gordonsimpson3235 at least give the line catcher a friggen pole with a hook and sure woulda liked to see the inside of that beauty
She has a shit ton more class than the hideous (in my opinion) sunseekers and Azimuts.
I respect your take of it and totally agree that she's very classy and carries her size with immense dignity. Though, I don't agree that the newer yachts are inherently unclassy. There's a valid interest in claiming products of the latest and most exploratory design concepts. Personally, as someone who's interested in both kitsch art and modern architecture, I don't like all the new designs, but still can appreciate even the most aggressive deviations from classical designs, e.g; MY and SY "A."
Very informative on both levels.
I'd have forsaken the cumbersome gangplank for a more discrete Passerelle.
Great video and wonderful history of that amazing yacht!
Just watched the video all through if that crew on board her now, was back in ' 69' the 1st mate would be saying if they did not improve by the time of the next destination they would be Keel hauled , What a sloppy lot. Sorry Guy's.
What happens if you don’t put the flag out or don’t put it out at that time, do they make you walk the plank? lol
You are banished from the harbour
Very Interesting - Wish you were able to show the interior
Thanks
Here is a video of the interior from the company that did the lighting. ua-cam.com/video/EtgRrronixY/v-deo.html
And not a single mention that this yacht was the star of 1973 film "The last of Sheila" with Rachel Welsch, Anthony Perkins, James Mason, James Coburn etc etc?? Unbelievable...
Wow, just imagine being in a position to have and live aboard a boat like that... Man, what a bummer... ;-}
One huge Flag there. Love the post, almost emotional with history, progress and the great film work as usual. Tks a lot.
What a lovely craft, and a fascinating story - really enjoyed this submission, thanks :)
Bad form dropping the line into the water...cant have a wet deck...
Loved this. What a magnificent restoration.
Awsome! One again you were in the right place at the right time! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks you for posting this video. I really like how you inform us of the what and why of everything they are doing. Stowing that boarding ramp appears to be a real nightmare. I would have thought a temporary jib hoist could have been set up to ease that pain, ;-)
Amazing insight, you are the Yacht Sensei!!! Thank you!
Superb and also fascinating. Well done Sir!
Sam Spiegels yacht / hotel / production office in the Gulf of Aqaba while filming Lawrence of Arabia ??? Life well lived, Sir, well lived.
Can't toss that 6 inch mooring line military vessel
I just love the older style yachts Malahne has very similar line to Blue Bird the ex Sir Malcomb Campbell yacht which I had the pleasure to go on board several time. She has also had a recent refit by her new owners who are part of the Getty family.
I owned a small 10m wooden family motor cruise that was built in 1930 and also went to Dunkirk in 1940 and then saw service in the Royal Navy. She was on The Thames Estuary mine patrol. I kept her for 15 years and sold her in 2010, now sadly missed but needs must. Do check out other Dunkirk Little Ship on the ADLS web channel.
Thank you for posting and will check out your site in due course, big thumb's up.
Beautiful Classic Yatch!
Do you happen to know if, I think it was 1920’s or30’s, large SV ‘La Vagabond ‘ as she was called in the 1980’s is still sailing the Med?
I think she was built for and owned by rhe King of Greece ( if my memory serves me well) once under a different name I would think
Beautifull yacht. Great video. Well done.
Now that's a PROPER motoryacht - Camper & Nicholson build, seen all the great movie legends and been a Dunkirk veteran as well. That's pedigree...
Totally agree
Lots of bits you could drop in water while bringing in the passerelle!
Including me, if I was there! "Ahoy guys. Ooooops!!"
Such an elegant yacht, such an inelegant gangway! Hmmm.... Perhaps a little like Sam Spiegel, a mixture of impulses (the most polite way I can describe him; what you, ESys, might term Marmite®). Regards. Good video.
Nice yacht. Would you believe a friend had a similar yacht, however his was steam !! In this modern world you can imagine how much those gleaming white plastic yachts loved his boat. About 90 minutes to raise steam. With some interesting smoke... Lovely ..character building sailing
Lovely boat. Do you suppose she might be ready for a new hydraulic passarelle?
Old yachts are so majestic and rich in mystique.... Recently watching the Monaco Formula 1 race, there was this older yacht, kind of an off-white/ light coffee color, in camera view every now and then and it was so pretty, pretty sure it was near turn 12. I'm still trying to find out who owns it so as to get more pictures and history. If anyone knows it give me a shout please. I'm not a sea fairing guy but I love classic anything, and classic yachts are the coolest. Thanks
The sheik's idea was terrible. The yacht lost all its appeal. Amazing that someone would return her to original look. was looking forward to seeing onboard as I imagined a similar design to Onassis' yacht.
Wonderful history (providence) and video Thank you to you and of course, the Owner for the restoration and preservation. Having watched Ian Pickerings internal imagery together now with this is a superb piece of maritime history I have watched many of your Vlogs and not particularly in any order - great work
I know the NEW YACHATS are Very nice and pretty ,BUT a ole wooden boat is a BOAT wood is more pleasing
I'm ready to book passage! Notice the Skyscraper Cruise Ship....Blah!
The most ridiculous gangway I have ever seen. Also, not a smart looking crew at all...they move like snails...were they all hungover?
Glorious insight, thanks for the great videos mate.
What a brilliant video! Many thanks and keep up the great work - the combination of explaining the operations and history of the yacht is spot on.
crew activity is moderately interesting, but interior shots would've been more so!
Love the old yachts of yesteryear. So many stories behind them. Would love to see a full tour.
What an awful gangplank. Looks good but pity we did not get a good close up view on board.
Reminds me very much of our Queen's yacht Dannebrog.
I bet it's a shot list of yachts that have a WW2 history, that's incredible!!!
All that money and the most inefficient gangway ! A beautiful boat.
why do yachts not shift colors while underway like military vessels do?
Leave it to some Sheik to bastardize a beautiful boat, such classic lines.
why all the exact timing for raising a flag thats not even your flag but just one of convenience? I understand it for a navy vessel but this is just a dumb tradition.
It’s tradition and who are we to argue with that?
@@YachtReport said every sheep if they could talk.
Galilla Sinatra approved as well. Except for that passerelle, it's a no go for heels!
Fascinating, the main propulsion units are whisper quiet.
Somebody please give me an idea of what this is worth?
That was one fantastic looking boat
I hope the owner enjoys it every day
What a shitty gangway design. It's a beautiful and old vessel but that gangway...
Thanks for showing the history of this beauty
3:14 overseas means on the other side of the sea. Oversees means to watch over to ensure correctness.
she looks great and I would like t sail her world the world with my family
That gangway looks like an absolute pain!
Thanks for researching and producing such a good video.
Continue to love these "everyday" yacht videos....m
Beautiful yacht... love the old ones.
I am guilty of dropping the line in the drink too.
My Scottish grandfather was a retired Merchant Master [following WW2] and he was very picky about wet lines on his private boat. He usually ran a small crew, being a Scotsman! As I was about 13 yrs at the time, and agile if I came along I always helped out being the last handling the lines, then scampering aboard. Well one day we were going out for a day out so so docked Portside with Stern-out , yes as the gangway was on the side, and lots of tide in the area. I undid the stern lines throwing them up over the rails on the deck... then the final forward line did not quite make it and I reached to catch it before it hit the water. I got it just with my hand and arm down to pick up the line, down between the wooden floating dock and the hull. Being impatient to get going he had begun walking the stern out from the dock, and I was slow getting my hand up before the hull touched the dock... not real hard but even a gentle rolling push from a 100 ton boat was easily hard enough to break my forearm... in a crushing action... it contused the skin between my radius bone and the dock where I could see the bone... instant agonizing pain... not one drop of blood! Now with my grandfather you did not do stupid things... and get yourself hurt... so I held back my screams. Luckily the wound was just above the wrist below the sleeve, as it pulled up when I had stretched down to grab the line, on my favorite orange anorak saving it. But now I was in agony and after the hull rolled over and off I pulled the hand up grabbed the edge of the dock and pulled to make sure the bone was straight... which I could check in the opening... just little crack showing after that in the bone. Pulled the sleeve over it and then of course the gang was not down and I had to jump and pull myself up mainly one handed. The wound was clean and I got some alcohol poured over it. Covered it up all day... in intense agony. Got a bitch about the wet rope... and deck but managed to dry it off. My arm swoll up tight into the jacket sleeve which sort of formed a tensile fabric structure acting as a splint. This is like 5 am just as dawn was coming up. Spent the day out but he came back in about 3PM or so he could get a nap before dinner. As soon as we got back my mom took me to the doctor and he x-rayed and determined it set very well .... thank heavens. He told mom, he could not really cast or splint that as it is too swollen... but it is together very close almost like a crack and I'd be in so much pain and not move it. In a 4 days it was as predicted well started knitted together, so it was not set or cast... . So with that some antiseptic and a bandaid over the wound, got released. Yes, for the next week it was so intensely painful, just very gradually simmering down, and I kept it straight setting it carefully to rest on any flat surface I could. Later after dinner my mother let him have it... he said, "I never knew, he said nothing!"
But this is the thing, the dropped wet line on deck was not to be tolerated happily. No matter, if I could have prevented it with a broken arm probably would try, again!
Great story, thanks for sharing.
What a stupig gangway and the lines may not get wet. Its a boat.
What is the name of that humongous cruise ship in the left rear?
There must be a better way than that surely why take it apart
Lovely yacht, the gangway is pathetic.
I like the Adel XII but why use a yacht from 1937 as your base?
Because it’s awesome
You can see that the tech is old and it's a stylish boat.
Funny looking boat. It has only a stern !
The gang plank system is rubbish.
Frank Sinatra was a disgusting human being. I wouldn't use him as any kind of reference.
Even a factual one?
An exquisite reminder of a more elegant time.
Beautiful! Not a giant plastic bucket
You would think when they refitted it at the newest refit, they would have asked for a proper passerelle and a quieter bow thruster. LOL
netspectre101
“A quieter bow thruster”... what the hell is that?? Sorry... I’m stumped on how you make churning water quieter.
Also, for a boat built in the 30’s or 40’s... it probably has the “proper passerelle”. I doubt they had electric over hydraulic controls folding gangways back then.
@@caseybhargraves3696 they actually did, but it would have been a novelty "concept" feature, not yet for production. Lots of interesting yacht and ship concepts from back then. Check out Norman Bel Geddes designs
eSysman This Ship reminds me the Yacht in the movie IT HAPPENED ONE NIGHT , and PALM BEACH STORY , and also SOME LIKE IT HOT . thanks for a great video of of a Fine lady .
Hello. Recently I started watching your channel, I really like your videos. I have a question. Tell us about the strange deeds of wealthy people.
-I myself work in a bank. One client founded his own small company, earned $ 50,000 in one year, and bought a new Porsche Panamera car worth $ 100,000 on credit. In fact, he spent all his money and took a loan from a bank to buy an expensive car.
-Another client`s financial condition was estimated at $ 2 million, he was 50 years old and refused to buy a new iPhone because he thought that $ 700 for a smartphone was too expensive.
Do you have any examples of strange behaviors of rich people?
Thank you
5:49 WOW one of those two crews are a bunch of amateurs..."has to untangle the line as the neighbouring boat's line is also on the cleat." There are no acceptable reasons for this to happen; it means you don't know what you're doing. When a line is already on a cleat you pass the eye of your line up through and put it over the cleat, that way either vessel can slip easily with no problems. Regardless of which crew was responsible for such poor seamanship, the mate should have seen this and had it corrected.
What a lovely yacht. I can understand why Sinatra and the others liked her. Classic design. I’m glad she was restored to her original design.
It’s comical to me that the wealthy of today think you need a mini cruise ship to enjoy life more than you could in this grand old lady. Money for many makes them think bigger is better when in fact it’s class, style and heritage that is what matters.
I love the care the crew take - not banging the gangway against the hull as they bring it on board, not getting the ropes salty wet (almost). What a beautiful boat and video. Thanks!
Fantastic ship 🚢 love this type of video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 storing that gangplank is a bit of a palaver needs updating in my opinion 🤷🏼♂️
Ugh...looking at the picture of her when the Saudi Sheikh ruined her lines proved that money doesn't buy class.
As the ultimate contrast, if you are ever in Egypt, pop over to Luxur and see the 100s of boats moored up there due to lack of tourists. There is the wooden steamer from Death of the Nile, old and new Darabihyas, the National Ferry (which I steered across the Nile once) plus all kinds of craft commercial and other. On the walls of Hapshepsut's temple there are depictions of ancient boats/ships used on the Red Sea, we know this because of the pictures of the fish underneath. In antiquity, wooden ships would be dismantled on the Red Sea Port of El Quseir portered via the Wadi Hammamat across the desert, reassembled in the Nile at Luxor and sailed down to Cairo and the Med. In ancient Egyptian history they recount journeys lasting 4 years, which will take them way past Aden. This boat reminded me of boats on the Nile.
Great video as always, I asked you this in a previous video about the extra bow lines, do you know what the type of connection to the harbor bottom is, do they just tied onto a ring sunk into a cement block or do they use a shackle to a bight type rope similar to a docking line?
Take us inside....let us see the interior
My blazer is at the dry cleaners
RD100 😂
I had this dream in my head:
I want to build a custom 25m luxury yacht. If I would build it in europe with Vripack or Feadship it would be extremly luxurious and extremly expensive. But what if I only want to have around 6 kts of cruise speed and a 500nm range. And only basic furniture inside (Ikea for example). I do not need all these luxuries to feel cozy. And I could build it in a shipyard in Africa ore Asia. Would it be less expensive?
Thank you for your help :)
I worked on this Yacht for Sam Spiegel in 1978 .It was the best time ever for a 19 year old ! ,super hedonistic and very decadent. . We used to go out and tie one on with the Crew of the Calypso and have competitions picking up girls. ( we used to tie one on every day )The Yacht docked next to us was the Atlantis , the biggest private yacht in the world then at 365 feet owned by Stavros Niarchos and crewed by the Greek Navy ... Everything was kicking off in the South of France in those days. It was all disco the Bee Gees, Robert Stigwood, Donna Summer ...Blake Edwards filming the pink Panther. we had Bianca Jagger and Brigitte Bardot and the Kennedy's on board .and I had pals working on Harold Robbins and Norman Wisdoms boat. I even met Ringo in the Loews Casino !. If you worked for Speigel you could get in anywhere in Monaco just by dropping his name ( I was told he was godfather to one of princess Graces children ).. We always went to San Tropez and he insisted docking along side rather than stern in . We used to have to do gangway watches there to stop tourists just walking on board ( it didn't happen in Monaco).We went to Italy and moored right outside St Marks Square. Nearly got arrested in Yugoslavia for entering a military zone . The crew were really rough and ready and would take on anyone who gave them trouble but they were great lads and all great at their jobs . The guy who really ran the boat was the chief Engineer called Stan a brilliant character like an English John Wayne who would light Speigel up even in front of the guests if he had the skipper work the engines to hard. The Yacht was so lovely we had so much fun getting it ready for the season spending all day painting and varnishing in the sunshine. What a life ! Heady and Fun times. Lovely to see Malahne looking so lovely and elegant again thank you for posting
Great stories. That’s what I love about the old boats. They have such a great history.
Harold Robbins yacht was' Gracara' built by esterel.
@@michaelmather7352 and jam packed full of drugs and sex toys !
I went on that boat! A distant relative of mine is the owner!
Lucky boy!
Megayacht topaz renamed A+, could you snap picture of yacht eith new name?
That monstrosity in the background is a cruise ship! How horrifying!
I was wondering why it took him so long to engage the port engine along with the bow thruster to port to make to the boat go to the port away from the other vessel on the starboard side
Fantastic coverage. What MSC ship is that in the background please?
