Probably the first tour I’ve seen where you can actually see the speed of the boat. Wow that looked fast. A smile that makes your face ache for a week. Classic!
Agree, I thought the addition of going out on the boat at speed & the drone footage made Nicks report soooo much better 😀👍👏👏👏
With the galley in the low-ceilinged cabin, I hope one of the kids knows how to cook!
maybe a folding stool/chair might help
Hi Nick and John. A fantastic boat with plenty cockpit space. A proper V8 flying machine. Great video thanks 😊
Glad you enjoyed it
I had a grin on my face just watching this Nick! Thanks for cheering me up on an otherwise miserable drizzly day.
You're very welcome! 🙂
Just imagine skiing behind that beast. Whoop whoop. Great time. Thank you Nick.
It always tickles me how you folks across the pond are impressed with 45 knots. My 26 Proline will hit 70 mph with a light load and the right props. My bass boat will top that! We just have a faster pace of life over here. Lover your videos. Thanks
Its about money and weather in the end, not really the faster life part as such. Few in europe can afford to burn the amount of fuel it takes to push a relatively big boat fast. The weather also means the market for boats that are only pleasurable to use in great weather is small compared to more all weather boats. Lastly there are cultural and geographical reasons. So thats the answer as to why.
It always tickles me how your minivans need atleast 300 hp, just to be stuck in traffic 🤣
What a turn of speed! For the boater who just wants fun and thrills - this is an amazing machine!
We're glad you enjoyed yourself Nick! Thank you for visiting us at Salterns Marina, it was great to spend the day with you.
It was a pleasure, thank you for looking after me (and taking me out in a fast boat!) 🙂
Thanks to John for having us aboard this very cool machine.
What an experience it must be in person!
The sound says it all. Very good docking setup. Awesome !
Well that was a bit of fun, nice wee boat and a terrific lick of speed.
Nick thanks for this one - I really enjoy your video's when you get to take the boats out, and I have to say you do seem to "Love a Windy" you seem to have an enthusiasm in your voice whenever you tour them, and I completely understand why.
There is a reason why you get the ratios on likes vs dislikes that you get, thank you nick
You're very welcome! 🙂
and who gives a thumbs down to these anyway? i bet it’s some jealous rival that is a Karen… just sayin
I heard the dislike button is being done away with soon, will only be visible to the uploader.
Norwegian - Scandinavia is not a country
@@geirleirvik1478 huh?
Fantastic!!! Turns more like a motorcycle that a boat!!! Great job Nick, buckets of fun!!! 😃👍🏻
So that was a speedy intro, And thank you Nick for this nice show of this very quick Windy 29 Coho lovely day/weekender in a harbour with good company of a Marex on the side and a smaller Botnia Targa when I am right thanks again,
That certainly shifts. Great machine for loads of fun. That turning circle is unbelievable. Thanks for showing this one to us Nick
Our pleasure!
This video is 1 of the many reasons I subscribe to this channel. I first started watching Nick do MB&Y (I think) vids for years and then I was 1 of the first subscribers to Aquaholic. I love this unique boat. It would be perfect for where I live.
Bravo!
Yes please, a real boys toy with the V8 roar to top it all off, brilliant.
V8 roar nice, empty wallet not so nice
Once took a ride in a Formula sportsboat, from memory, it was 31 ft, and very, very fast. At full chat the skipper said it was using about a gallon a minute of fuel.
Would have been around 1994 I guess?
Most impressed I've been in a boat was on lake Windermere when we were aksed aboard a Mastercraft ski boat, again, early 90's - the bought would have been a late 1980's model.
Full beans down the lake, we were travelling - and the owner pulled hard on the wheel and spun it on its own length. It dug a hole then powered it's way out of it. Incredible.
Great machine, that's some serious tilt when turning, looks like you both had some tremendous fun. Nice little video Nick thanks for bringing some fun into our lives.
Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
If you had a stuffy head before hand after a fast ride in this speedy Lady you'll have a clear head from the sea area when you get off. Looks like you had fun Nick.
Awesome. Always very nice to see how the boat goes out on the water.
Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Marvellous stuff, 45 knots on a boat is such a smiler.
Brilliant!!
Really enjoyable review and great to see a sea trial in addition to the tour.
Looks like a lot of fun if all you need is fun! 😁
Fantastic video Nick. That boat looks so much fun.
Super exciting to see this boat in action . Sheer joy just watching . Clean classic looks & quality make it look almost new . With you . Mark (Toronto) 👍
Love Windy boats, build quality and the handling is stunning…..
Nick you looked like a you were almost enjoying it too much… and who could blame you! 👍🏻👍🏻❤️
Nick, you know what to do. There is no choice. Buy it! =)
We all need a "Need For Speed" from time to time. Thanks Nick. 👌👍🚤
Got a big grin, just watching it... Love the sea trials. Keep them coming 😀😀😀
Will do!
My Regal Commodore 2660 will do 35k top end, but because of the stepped hull, I can’t do high-speed tight turns. On the other hand, I can cruise at 28k @ 75% power. Guests are usually impressed by the performance of a petrol powered single-engined boat. It’s great to see these types of affordable sport cruisers in your videos.
What a brilliant video (again) lol!
Have to say that the 29 Coho is THE boat I would buy that's under the £250K price tag. That's assuming I had the money of course!
Looking forward to the next one Nick.
Same as some others.
I realised that I was smiling through the video myself. Just enjoying co-experiencing through you Nick. Loved it.
Nice to see various boat styles and benefits, especially when considering getting a boat for family and friends fun.
Glad you enjoyed it
More like this love the speed of it.
Great.
very cool. and yes you are right. canopies are a nightmare. way to go is a bog standard bimini top and press stud mooring cover. if you want a large enclosed space it would make more sense to just stay home when the weather is bad or get a yacht (if you can afford).
This is the The 3rd Smuggler blue!
more of these testdrives please. thanks for the ride along..
well done nick.i was missing your sea trials and then hey presto.lol.i know what you mean about a constant grin on ones face.;)
Wow, I just might have to buy that one. Top video as usual 👍
Thanks for the short tour
The Coho is lovely and was our intended next boat. But then we saw the Parker 850 at the Southampton Boat Show this year. We loved it so much that we placed an order there and then. It arrives in December 🤞
You are bang on, Nick, the Coho is like a two seater sports car whereas we wanted a 4 seater cabriolet. If that makes sense. The beam, layout and fittings of the Parker simply blew the Windy away, in our opinion.
Absolutely awesome.. Very cute and well organized space.. Crisp tour too.. Thank you for sharing!!
Thanks for watching!
I fail to see what’s not to like about your channel, Nick. It’s fun, lighthearted and informative. 😊👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😊
Awesome! Thank you!
@@AQUAHOLIC would be great to see a clear video of using outboard/sterndrive trims alongside trim tabs.
Personally, I like to get up to speed, trim the engine a little and then just use the trim tabs for lateral, port/starboard levelling.
But there’s a lot of confusing stuff out there which doubles up, etc.
@@garryrobson That is exactly right. Tabs add drag, so far better to trim with the engine and only use as little tab as possible to correct roll. The only exception is planing at very low speed, where tabs can help by giving more stern lift.
It's not often that I boat reviews thinking 'give it the full beans' ;-)
I think that has a stainless steel chain 😲😲😲 I think that’s the first I’ve seen. Wow. Awesome job Nick. Thank you!
Beautiful and stylish boat!
i've always loved windy boats, superb conditions but price is outrageous for what is, especially with single petrol engine.
@Biggest Dongle yes, i had the Little volvo Brother. Remains a daycruiser with an Emergency bed and Need to bend inside. Greta fin boat .... Overpriced
Your enthusiasm is infectious Nick .... Thank you so much for the vid....!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Aloha; BRILLIANT! Now to find that super-yacht to match it to. Mahalo
As an american, i'd like to say, what a bloody brilliant boat! SB3 Perhaps?
Windy make some fantastic boats - fast, fun to drive and gorgeous. Only competitor is the Cormate T27/T28 in my view
The Cormate is gorgeous and a great hull, but no seperate loo and only seating for 4 in the cockpit which has always struck me as a shame.
Love the Cormate style but agree with Nick.
@@AQUAHOLIC have you checked out the revised T28 - more seats and wider sun pad - gorgeous
@@andrewhales6344 Looks promising! I wonder whether it has a seperate heads?
@@AQUAHOLIC No unfortunately not but the quality of the boat has been taken up a notch and with teak decks all around, more seating, 52 knots top speed, very safe deep bow area for sunbathing, it is a great boat which will make you grin all week long. I recently tested one and fell in love!! Fun, Fun, Fun
Well wasn't that fun! Thanks for taking us a long, Nick. Could almost feel the windburn on my face!
Glad you enjoyed it
Nick, thanks for another great video, however it would have been nice to see the boat out beyond the confines of Poole Harbour in a bit of chop.
Yes it would, but time sadly didn't allow.
Your boat or your watch collection what one could you not live without? 😂😂😂
Boat, every time! 😄
That one looks great fun!
That looks seriously quick!
Great Review, but comparing a Jenneau 805 with a Windy Coho is more like comparing a Volkswagen Passat (the practical one) with a Bentley Continental GT (the Gentleman cruiser).
That was fun! Thanks Nick!
Glad you enjoyed it!
A dose of pure joy, it´s fantastic :D
Great video, thank you! Also thanks for not adding music.
Glad you liked it!
Another great video. Salute my friend.
Much appreciated
Awesome boat.
Great video of a fantastic brand. You tempted nick for your new boat lol
Would love one!
Great video.....it's always a joy to see these boats. I'll always choose space and comfort over speed but each to their own. My dream boat has a cruising speed of 8 knots!! Did you say that was Poole harbour? You're in my back yard! Loving these videos...
Yes, Poole Harbour
Considering the size, the separate toilet is very nice. I wonder if you can pull the faucet off the sink to use as a shower? Make it into a wet head to rinse the salt water off, would make it perfect.
I was grinning just watching, Amazing Nick.
Excellent nice boat and great turning capacity
Nice Wrist Watch Nick , Great Video.
Thanks! 👍
That engine noise! Worth the buy in price
Awesome…. Just needs a set of Stainless headers & straight through Pipes ….then it Really would be a piece of kit !!👍😎❤️
You ought to buy it Nick
Nice boat, and great footage and narration as usual. I like additional drone footage, nice idea.
Thank you very much!
Ho ho ho .... whaaaat a toy !
It is just proper to move your friends & your self from one part to another on the Riviera ... just to be on time at a poker tournament.......Isn.t that so, Nick ?!!?!
Over all a fantastic flying-water machine.As everytime, great presentation Nick. Especialy those magnificent images from drone.
Well done ! To the next one ....
RESPECT !!
Nice looking speed boat. 🚤🚤🚤🚤🚤🚤
Wow what a machine and I agree, love the sound of a V8.
What a fast boat brilliant video nick 🚤🚤👍👍👍👍👍👍
That was a tight turn! Fantastic. Great video.
Glad you enjoyed it
I always hankered after a Windy Mirage but never got there. Lovely boat: 400 hp and 45 knots - I bet she's got a bit of a thirst....
Smugglers Blues 3?
Also that canopy tensioner is brilliant, the worst part of dealing with boats in my experience is the damn snaps on the plastic windshield inserts
I wish!
Probably not practical enough
Another great video Nick
That boat had me smiling just watching you both
Great toy
Glad you enjoyed it
For some reason I am always comparing price-wise Nick's videos on boats this range with luxury cars and I would always choose a...let's say a top shelf Range Rover. I guess I'm not that much into floating on water 😂
From my experience, people spending circa £140K on a high performance boat like this aren't usually having to decide between one or the other... 🙂
I’ve said it many times but I do love a Windy.
It is a real grin machine. Of course, you could drive to the marina in a Caterham and really give your face a workout!!
So smooooth at speed too
Sweet boat for fun.
I like that, I like it a lot. Bit of fun for a couple of days, bit of fishing, blast along the coast to see friends, or even cruising up a river.
That’s my kind of boat.
Might need a bigger engine though. 45 knots is a bit slow 😉
Hi great boats WINDY and built to a high standard and sea keeping . Skip around the South coast , with a smile on your face . If the suns out lets go . Thank you both for the trip . Food for thought ?
That was cool... :)
If someone falls overboard how do they get the ladder out they should design it like the 2010 formula 40ss
Not the boat for me, but boy, the sound of that V8...I can see how this would be a fantastic laugh start to finish!
That engine is the same size and power as my Maserati engine! 😳😳😳
Lot of fun to be had Awesome👍👍
I got some serious deja vu vibes from the Miami Vice boat videos with this one. Although not quite as brutal/raw (probably a good thing) this seems like a really nice option and damn it really does corner!
I know exactly the episode you mean! 😃
@@AQUAHOLIC I tried to deafen myself by cranking up the speakers on that one 😂
Magnificent boat!
Great video as always, keep it up 👍
Thanks, will do!
I think if you have the cash this sort of boat is definitely the most bang for your buck. I feel I would definitely love this for the money than the long distance cruiser types
Needs twins ! LOL
You guys are having too much fun! 😎
Nice video Nick what I find funny is that I haven’t got a boat but I seem to have adopted a snobby attitude towards the smaller ones.
That looked like lots of fun
