James, as per the comment below, you have a special talent for being able to honestly discuss the issues with a vessel, without discouraging someone from wanting to own the yacht you are presenting. If I was in the market, and I will be eventually, I would not hesitate to buy a boat from you.
If I ever found myself with enough money to own and maintain a Nordhavn, I would go to nobody but you for my purchase. You are the most educated person when it comes to these beautiful works of art. Your videos are the most in-depth and educational of any videos out there. You always take the time to show the pros and cons of each boat. Your workmanship of the headliners you have replaced and the other things you have done to a lot of these boats, shows the quality you expect is like no other! Thank you for the hard work you do to bring us these videos, if not for you many of us would never see these boats, let alone get such a great detailed tour of the interior and how the systems all operate!
NO ONE shows a Nordhavn like James! I truly love the way you do things James. The good, the bad, the fuzzy and the great, thank you! Be happy, be safe.
I love your honesty James! Like the hatch hitting the door in the cockpit... I appreciate how you will be walking through a yacht and point something out and say "They weren't using their head when they built that!" Even the people that purchase boats from you will appreciate your honesty because salesmen don't have a reputation for being honest! You're the only person I would ever buy a yacht from.... And I will have one some day! ;)
James, thanks for this! I’m taking delivery of a new 68FPH in a few weeks and so much of your commentary was relevant and reassuring. I look forward to meeting someday!
James your reviews are the best on You Tube. I love the detail bring to light that is so important, yet skipped by most all other reviewers. If I ever buy a Nordhavn you will be my first call.
Why…why have I watched everyone of your walk-through Nordhavn videos knowing damn well that I’ll never be able to afford such a vessel? Because the knowledge, passion, and commitment that you’ve exhibited, not only to the owners of these boats but to your family and employees of your company is refreshing. Hats off to you and if you ever float out into the desert there’s a beer (or cocktail of your choice) waiting for you, cheers!
I almost never comment, love these boats…..but this technical tour is exactly what this old engineer loves. Great job, spot on. Give me a couple years and we will be in Florida looking for something in this range.
Love this video, I personally liked the music and didn’t think it was too loud in the intro and understand the effect Matthew was going for . Keep them coming please and you are a great father and son team 😊
I have to say, that was one of the most informative walk-throughs I've seen yet. I'm a future Nordhavn owner at some point and the description/applications of all the systems you went over were enlightening to say the least. But, it also follows across any other brand someone might be interested in. Very useful for anyone looking at purchasing a boat. That being said, I couldn't be more sold on the Nordhavn brand thanks to your matter-of-fact, no bs approach to educating someone in the market for one. Every boat has pluses/minuses but its so helpful to know them up front rather than sugarcoating to make the sale. Great job, subscribed!
Completely unrelated to Nordhavn yachts or boats for that matter - you are very good at explaining things in an articulate way and a natural in front of the camera. Enjoy watching your videos sir!
James, I thought all yacht videos were the same. Yours are so complete and wildly entertaining. After watching I often think to myself “Why the hell would you buy another trawler?” By the time I start my search, You’ll have taught me what to look for in each and every system. Thanks!
It's great to finally get an actual objective review of these yachts. Most are simply sales pitches that tell us how great everything is, with little explanation of how good or poor things function in actual conditions. Prop's to you James for a thoughtful and insightful review.
One thing that seems to get missed on everyone’s Nordhavn walkthroughs is practical storage of bulky items. Pantries and cupboards are always mentioned but: after seeing Mermaid Monster clear the decks in preparation for a Hurricane, I’m not so impressed with the storage space. They filled the Captain’s cabin to the overhead with seat/deck pads and other items, making it otherwise unusable. It would be great if you could address this in one of your videos. Thanks a lot for the great videos!
I own a Krogen 39 I only carry what I can stow, It’s too easy to “clutter” a boat up I tell guest before they come if you want something soft to sit on bring your own cause my butt pad is only for me
Good Morning James, This has been one of the very best in depth, detailed boat videos that I've ever had the pleasure of watching. Excellently done. I appreciate your honesty and clear integrity. We're predominantly a private charter family. We don't have the time nor applied knowledge to own one, though after watching you and subscribing to your awesome channel, anything is quite possible. Loved the video ! Warmest Regards from Arizona
I will never come close to a Nordhavn or even a motorboat. But this walkthrough I’ve seen now for the 5-6th time. Its like ballet you have no interest in on paper but that you can not stop watching. Best work in biz
GREAT TOUR. I love that you jump on the bed, and get into the areas. It gives PERSPECTIVE on the size of objects and spaces that we CANNOT get from the more casual tours.! GREAT JOB.
Best Nordhavn review I’ve seen! Thank you! The tips you mentioned are so well thought out, like the A/C water lines! We want to get a 76 when I finally retire!
Brother; as a retired since '04' high speed production equipment electro mechanical tech, I learn more watching these vids of James going through a nautical set-up than I would spending a month reading the nomenclature. Guru Status!
Watching your videos I’m on the threshold of wanting a rowboat, which I could expertly maintain and operate, and a Nordhavn. But the more I watch your presentations, my confidence in learning to operate a trawler grows. I would love this little ship if it topped at 14 knots like the newer larger Nordhavn models. Thanks for the great walkthrough videos.
yayyyy...... youre back. awesome video again. i learn more about a boat watching 1 of your videos compared to a dozen of other videos. also the 64 is a nicer boat than i was expecting it to be. looking forward to the 55. thank you james.
Thanks for yet another fabulous in depth review of a Nordhavn. The only thing I would like to see you do is take these boats out and show them in their element. Thanks again and I will give you a call when I am looking to buy.
Thank you for taking the time to make another stunning, in depth videos. I have worked with LIon systems in data centers. Some used a gyro to stabilise current and hold for brief outages from switching to alternate power. Not stab gyro weights required. Supercap is an exciting and potentially dangerous thing. The short protection is normally strong and redundant so it dosent make big bad boom. These were tested as warheads and found to be something not quite ready with weight to blast ratio.
It may take a lottery win to buy a Nordhavn, so there is doubt that I'll own one. But there is no doubt who I would have service it. That would be Yacht Tech. Fantastic videos. It is nice to listen to someone that knows their stuff and communicates it clearly and without any boasting or bravado. Big thanks to Mathew for following you around and doing the edits. Very good work.
Thank you for spending the time to create these videos for those who have interest in these boats but cannot afford to buy them, and to inform potential buyers
Your in depth Knowledge of Nord Havn's is simply amazing. Transporting boats most of my life i thought i was fairly well versed.You have just showed me how little i really know.I really like the way you discuss the pro and cons of each model. When the time come for me to pull the trigger and buy the boat of my dreams you will certainly be my first call.Informative is a understatement!!!!!!
These videos are simply outstanding, thank you for your honesty, pointing out what is good and what isn’t, whether intentional or not it’s the best way to act in sales. I know it’s the competition but any thoughts on Bering and how their boats compare? Pros and cons?
Thank you for what would have to be one of the most comprehensive boat tours I have taken the time to watch very informative and knowledgable thanks Guys you deserve a wee jimandtomic. Cheers.
James, love your in depth videos and the breadth of your knowledge and openness of what does and does not work. On behalf of my wife and myself, we would like to put 2 votes in for a review of a N68 aft pilot house. This is our dream boat and we would love to hear your comments and cautions for this vessel. Thanks so much for all that you do. Cheers
my favorite part is the little nook sleeping area in the pilot house - i can sleep there, the kids can sleep there, its perfect hangout with the seating area infant of it.
@@zorbalight3933 yeah I just realized I had a loose connection on my tv setup that was affecting the audio. I’ve since edited my comment to remove the reference.
James...your walk through are amazing. Its obvious you know EVERYTHING there is to know about these boats and you LOVE what you do! I would really enjoy more posts from you....I love your input. Do you plan to do more with this channel or can we find you doing these kind of reviews on other channels? Also, it's obv your expertise is the Nordhaven but I would love to see you do product and system reviews regardless of the boat they are on! Please let us know if we can see more of you out there somewhere!
Thanks a lot! We will continue to do trawler reviews and in the future expand our horizon to other manufacturers. We hope to include Selene, Marlow, Kadey Krogen, Fleming, and maybe more. At some point there will be separate videos covering individual systems such as hydraulics, stabilizers, batteries, electrical, air conditioning, generators, thrusters, etc...
Awesome video! As always full of energy and informative! Looking forward to more videos. Unfortunately your videos give my husband dreams larger Nordhavns! 😉 Great work James and Matthew!
Great to see you reviewing a boat again! What's your opinion on the venerable N46. Her low profile? What do you consider the smallest size for a 2 man/woman crewed boat for extended stays still giving enough privacy to both guests and crew? 76?
Hi James and Mathew, great honest down to earth reviews guys, have watched everything I can find on the N55 and please James can you you do a three hour or three day review on them as I am seriously keen on them.. Please include your thoughts on the pros and cons on Single versus the twin engines.
Thankyou James for the lesson in helium 3 and 4 with 63 and 64 foot boats. I've been busy using the helium against the radiation in Europe which isn't going anywhere quickly
Very enjoyable hour and half looking at this yacht. Thanks to James and Matthew. Love your video's .. A request:- have you got any 60's you can do a video on?
YOUR favorite might not be mine because I can not "single" as deftly as you guys because I hear an alarm and I'm looking for the manual while you already donned your scuba gear, replaced the sky hook, and had a cupa'! Very interesting videos, from an Alaskan living in Kazakhstan.
Thankyou James for the 63 64 thing. I am into helium 3 and 4 that impregnates boats from the moon and the bmx v racer difference is just one of those things. I understand the $1 mill difference. I had this thing between V8 cars and 6 and 4 cylinders.
I’m most definitely buying my nordhavn from you. I have no experience but I’m in love with the 60. Can a customer fly you or your technicians out to them if they need emergency repairs?
its nice the customers know, when they get their boats back after the vessel was serviced, it was done properly buy highly skilled individuals, love the videos, stay safe!!!
I think if you really want to know which model James likes the best, you need to sit across from him at a large table, with your millions in hand and say. “James, let’s order a brand new Nordhavn, and spec it out with every system the exact make and model, you would install if it were for your own boat”
Great walk-through. On the Hydraulic Alternators - I am not understanding where they fit in to the operation of the boat. Is there a hydraulic pump running from the Main engine? I see that the wing engine is required for thrusters/windlass etc when manoeuvring. A very power-hungry/expensive solution to use hydraulic alternators - 'clumsy'. Belt-drive alternators mounted direct to the main engine HAS to be the way to go. All in all - a great vessel and very detailed run-through.
I like the idea of having two engines/screws for ease of maneuverability and redundancy while on the ocean. Would you suggest a Nordhavn with that fitting?
James, as per the comment below, you have a special talent for being able to honestly discuss the issues with a vessel, without discouraging someone from wanting to own the yacht you are presenting. If I was in the market, and I will be eventually, I would not hesitate to buy a boat from you.
Thank you AntBear :) I’ll be waiting for your call !
If I ever found myself with enough money to own and maintain a Nordhavn, I would go to nobody but you for my purchase. You are the most educated person when it comes to these beautiful works of art. Your videos are the most in-depth and educational of any videos out there. You always take the time to show the pros and cons of each boat. Your workmanship of the headliners you have replaced and the other things you have done to a lot of these boats, shows the quality you expect is like no other! Thank you for the hard work you do to bring us these videos, if not for you many of us would never see these boats, let alone get such a great detailed tour of the interior and how the systems all operate!

Good luck with nordhavn ownership, The 68 appears to be a solid boat
Looking forward to doing a walkthrough with you on your 68 one day John :)
James your reviews are the best on You Tube. I love the detail bring to light that is so important, yet skipped by most all other reviewers. If I ever buy a Nordhavn you will be my first call.
Thank you Philip. I look forward to that first call ;)

Your favorite is the one that works for you and your needs. Love your in depth showing of a boat.
Great stuff, James. When Mama says we can sell the house and buy a Nordhavn I will give you a call.
Thank you for sharing these amazing boats. While I have yet seen on of these beauties in person, I am absolutely in love with them.
happy your back !
Praise Odin! The wait is over. James at it again dropping knowledge on his loyal subscribers!

Id be really interested in seeing some in depth reviews of the smaller boats like the 47/52.
Finally!! Man I’ve been looking forward to another video. Awesome content love it
Sorry it took so long…. Glad you had the time to watch it ;)
I thoroughly enjoyed this video, Very informative , answered lots of my questions !
Thank you for that brilliant tour.
i love this guy, amaizng saleman/showmanship hes just chilled and doesn't try to sell anything just honest opinion
Thank you for what would have to be one of the most comprehensive boat tours I have taken the time to watch very informative and knowledgable thanks Guys you deserve a wee jimandtomic. Cheers.
The first video that I’ve watched. Absolutely loved it, especially the honesty. Incredibly informative and now I get to watch all that preceded it 👍🏻
Thanks for your support and we're happy to have earned a new follower ♥️ we hope you enjoy our other videos!
A great review. Looking forward to more in the future.
Thanks a lot for long awaited review!
N60 review - and we get a full-house!
Excellent Excellent Excellent video never have enough watching your videos.
keep them coming
Great job
It must be Christmas, and Saint Knight has a special gift for all of us. :)
What a great walk through. Very knowledgeable host!
I’m preparing for my adventure around the world. I am 34 now and I want to start my trip around the the world in 6-7 years. It has to be a Nordhavn!
That would be amazing! I’ll be a deckhand/cook/bodyguard on the trip! Lol
I can’t believe how quiet the engine was at 1000 rpm it was a great demonstration 😊
James, love your in depth videos and the breadth of your knowledge and openness of what does and does not work.

Apologies for the delay
@@yachttechinc1754 An apology was never needed.
Another fantastic video!
my favorite part is the little nook sleeping area in the pilot house - i can sleep there, the kids can sleep there, its perfect hangout with the seating area infant of it.
That’s my boat I want it ....thank you for the tour really great and cemented my views on Nordhaven 👍👍👍
Great detailed tour, warts and all, from a guy who knows his boats. Need to get James to comb over an Allseas 92 or Bering yacht
As always 👌👌👌👌👍👍
All the best from Germany
Thank you James Knight finally the wait is over.
Now the N64 is my favorite Nordhavn.
thanks for your honesty
Praise be to the pantheon of gods he's back yes he's back James is back 😂🙏
Great video. Love the Lithium Ion setup.
Only time I couldn't hear James was when we opened the Engine room door otherwise fine for me and I have average hearing for 70+ yrs.

Thank you...very educational and informative, as always. Overall, mind boggling., yet necessary honesty.
Stunning yacht, and excellent walkthrough. I'm curious of the difference in gross tonnage between the 64 and 63/62. Thanks, James.
Great to see you reviewing a boat again! What's your opinion on the venerable N46. Her low profile? What do you consider the smallest size for a 2 man/woman crewed boat for extended stays still giving enough privacy to both guests and crew? 76?
Hi James and Mathew, great honest down to earth reviews guys, have watched everything I can find on the N55 and please James can you you do a three hour or three day review on them as I am seriously keen on them.. Please include your thoughts on the pros and cons on Single versus the twin engines.
What a boat this is! Just incredible. Tnx for sharing:)
Thankyou James for the lesson in helium 3 and 4 with 63 and 64 foot boats. I've been busy using the helium against the radiation in Europe which isn't going anywhere quickly
got anymore video reviews coming up? miss the Nordhavn walkthroughs
Another Long video......and I loved it !!

We go where our customers need us!

Super wide salon.
I agree that the shallow
cupboards probably
contribute to the wide
feel, and that's what I would choose.
fantastic indepth video, well done
its nice the customers know, when they get their boats back after the vessel was serviced, it was done properly buy highly skilled individuals, love the videos, stay safe!!!
What a boat! What a tour! 👍
Loved every second of this. 😎👍🏼
Appreciate the feedback
hi... thanks for your show... i'm interested to hear about your thoughts on the Starlink satelite internet provider for boat use ...
I think if you really want to know which model James likes the best, you need to sit across from him at a large table, with your millions in hand and say. “James, let’s order a brand new Nordhavn, and spec it out with every system the exact make and model, you would install if it were for your own boat”
I say the 10% is conservative. Yes it will cost less, Bank the excess. When a failure occurs or an upgrade is needed, those funds will drain quickly.
FIVE MONTHS NO NEW VIDEO LETS GO! Coastal Pilot walk through please.
Great walk-through. On the Hydraulic Alternators - I am not understanding where they fit in to the operation of the boat. Is there a hydraulic pump running from the Main engine? I see that the wing engine is required for thrusters/windlass etc when manoeuvring. A very power-hungry/expensive solution to use hydraulic alternators - 'clumsy'. Belt-drive alternators mounted direct to the main engine HAS to be the way to go. All in all - a great vessel and very detailed run-through.
I thought it was a lot of pumps and cooling and smoke detectors, jeez. What is wrong with a belt, or a electric motor/generator in the drive line.
I am declaring this my dream boat after watching the first rew seconds!
I like the idea of having two engines/screws for ease of maneuverability and redundancy while on the ocean. Would you suggest a Nordhavn with that fitting?
