This is my favorite interior design I've seen on motor yacht of this size.
My new favourite 'if I won the lottery ' boat! Perfik for exploring the Mediterranean.
Might have to win twice!
Well that is definitely different to the norm, The below deck area is definitely reminiscent of a sailing yacht and the whole yacht gives the impression of a Catamaran, Really nice colours and finishes and a great layout. I think this yacht will sell well. Great tour Hugo thank you.
Thanks Sean
The design of this boat is incredible.
She's beautiful... Congratulations!!!
Good "out of the box" thinking for this design. I really like it. Great for touring the Med.
Absolutely sublime. the interior spaces are cavernous for this size of boat
What do you need more like this one? The best of a sailing yacht & motoryacht compromised in one beautiful ship. I love it!
I do agree with your comment, this is truly a new concept. Hugo, i can feel your enthusiam and I love it. Thank you for taking the time to do the video.
Really, thank you for this great video.
A very very attractive boat. I like speed, Azimut Atlantis 51 or a Princess V58, but such fuell efficiency saves a big pile of money in 8, 10 years, sailing a 50 days per year or more.
The gangways could have been less side providing more inside space. Although its spacy enough. A wunderfull pragmatic kitchen and dining table in a atrium.
A nice fast tender and a jetski for fun and speed and there you have it.
There is definitely something to be said about fuel efficiency. I just couldn’t buy a guzzler even if I had the money.
i love love love it. thank you for your great work!
love to have that, next life
Fantastic boat, my new favourite. Great tour as well, Hugo, well done, love it.
It's absolutely stunning
Brilliant tour Hugo.
Interesting boat with a very obviously sailing heritage.
I love the efficiency, seriously impressive. Nearly as cheap as sail power!
Thanks Nic, nice to see something genuinely different for a change
Thanks Hugo! Shout out from the Coastal South Carolina Lowcountry! 😊
Absolutely beautiful boat!!
Very impressive!
WOW....very impressed!
Excellent - love everything but the price. Another great video Hugo!!
Thanks Jay
The cushion lifts up, so you can flip it over and not have a tray and cupholders in the centre of your sofa.
Beautiful
1.6M? Where do they get the interiors from? IKEA? Other than that, the layout is spot on.
I think I'd get 1 massive master cabin, instead of 2 cabins across the beam...this and the new Grand Banks boat sounds like they save a arm and a leg on fuel, due to design.
Great !!! Thank you !!!
Great boat and different
Its an interesting boat with some nice features it just seems small for a 60 footer. The saloon and master look more like a 40 footer.
I'd take that portside berth and make it a laundry, LARGE freezer/fridge, and misc storage and live on that sucker!
Beautiful boat. 8:19 I believe that the center piece lifts up so that it can be reversed.
I am not, however, a fan of molded-in windows so close to the waterline.
Gorgeous 🥰
Very livable boat. Not a go-anywhere explorer, but perfect for many of the popular cruising sites. If I were rich, I'd get two and put one in the Caribbean and the other in the Med and jet between the two. While aboard you'd live very comfortably for extended periods of time parked in scenic areas of the world.
Very interesting vessel and very well presented
Thanks Billy
there is a reason that motor yachts have a different form factor than sailing yachts. side decks are unnecessarily wide and i would like to see someone lean against dymeema side rails when the boat is rolling. that massive chunky side board in the starboard saloon really gobbles up 1/3 of the upper saloon where people will be when cruising. yes the galley and dining is below but there is no proper lounging area and the dining area seats only 3 without packing in. the upper saloon seats only 2 on the setee. applause for the efficiency but it needs more tankage and more refrigeration. all in all this seems like a sailing vessel converted to a motor vessel rather than a new design from the keel up. experience with catamarans has shown that this conversion of design does not work well. perhaps this will be different but i expect this vessel will have to go through many revisions if it is to catch on.
Very Interesting. Made me think of the Nordhavn 41 - though that is smaller.
8:24 - it lifts up so you can turn it around and make seating for 3 or 4
Thanks for that
wow … what a boat perfect for the Med.
Very interesting! I think I'd rather have a steel hulled displacement yacht for distance cruising. I'm not as much of the split-level living and sailboat feel in the cabins. Does it offer a crew cabin for pastime crewing?
This is a cool design and a bit more mass market appeal compared to the FPB Deshew Designs. One to watch - thanks
Great boat! I wonder if this consept would work even better in 50footer range. I find maybe little too much space/size to handlle.
Very nice, but I think it's a bit of a niche yacht. For a 60' foot boat there is I'd say half the space of it's competitors. The fuel costs may be what sells this yacht, but I think it needs a flybridge for more space, maybe the next model. 👍😎✌🗽
I'm sure that when it runs aground the propellers will be a nice kickstand for the 'keel'
@DisposableEgo I thought he said the keel was designed to prevent that happening? Not good audio so I may be incorrect.
1,000 nm is now "long range"? Times have changed.
that would be a good coastel boat, distance for a 60 see if you can find an elling e6.
Really cool boat. Wish it was faster though. For a big boat I wonder if it is actually too light 🤔
The style looks like the Axopar or Saxdor. Seems like it would benefit from bigger engines.
Not so....Only 40 BTC enough to buy it . 😄 Nice boat nice video 👍👍👍
Love this boat. 1.6 is very reasonable considering it’s amenities and economy. Curious about the range and speed with the upgraded 250 Yanmar engines. It seems this boat is fitted with the 150’s, or is it?
Also curious about heating and air conditioning. Is there one big generator or one big and one small? Seems like a lithium ion battery set with enough juice to run the a/c and other electric powered items for at least 12 hours would be in order as well.
Hi Hugo, And thank you for this great show of this Omikron OT60 a beautiful long range yacht with a nice interior that light wood great choice the only thing i miss are electric engines
Hi Manuel, glad you enjoyed it
you missed the storage or crew cabin under the hatches in the bow.
That part of cushion lifts up incase you dont want cup holder u can flip it to other side so more people can sit down
CategoryA? Surprised.
Me too.
Curious - what range does a yacht need to have to qualify as 'long range?'
Weekend boat at tops more of an economical billionaires day boat
Great boat ane presentation. Any news about the price?
Thank you. It costs around €1.65m ex taxes
That roof sun bed is a big design error, why not solar panels all the way and more batteries?
My guess is that the "VIP" cabin is actually the Master ... slightly irritating though that it's not full beam. Unusual on a 60 footer ...
It is like a bigger Seafaring 44 with some nicer features
Does it have a water maker and seakeeper?
It does have a water maker and you can spec stabiliser fins but I’m told a Seakeeper wouldn’t work well due to the very flat stern which gives a lot of natural stability
Any Engine options for a little more power?
200hp
It's called Omikron (not Oikron) and it only has 1000 nm range. I am not sure what you call long range tbh. :-)
To be fair, that’s a much longer range than similar sized boats
Noice...
Bow and hull design not for rough water.
Yes, and he said it has a category A rating.
Cool concept, and the interior is an interesting take on a 60'er. Unfortunately, "Long Range" apparently means something very different to Europeans than folks who live on the Pacific coast of the Americas.
Interesting yacht. But that hulldesign is definitely not for rough seas.
Sales collapsed after covid😂 great ship
Ok if it's the 'ultimate long range motor yacht' a couple of issues here. From the brochure, range = 1000nm. A Fleming 65 has a range in excess of 2500nm. Fresh water capacity = 600litres. Fleming 65 - 1500 litres. My Trader at 'only' 47ft holds 1000litres and you do want a good capacity. It's also a light displacement boat of just 18.5 tonnes as opposed to say the Fleming 65, 46.5 tonnes!! For fuel efficiency and coastal cruising the light displacement may be great. Take this boat into serious seas and she'll be bobbing up and down like like Churchill dog. This is no doubt a great boat but 'ultimate'? Is this about realistic expectation or generating 'clicks'?
I really have to agree with you. A nice weekend cruiser but not long range live aboard. That tiny saloon compared to that huge cockpit. Doesn't make sense to me. Who puts controls in the cockpit forward facing? Also that super light weight scares me a little. A long range cruiser for me should be overbuilt.
very difficult to dock one up - you cannot step from the helm outside you have two walk all the way back - not a short sailing boat at all you need at least 2 to dock
Why not a motorsailer?
Almost zero reserve buoyancy and no skegs to protect the props. No a shallow keel won't do it. :)
What is the practical use of a tender in real life. Like, how do yacht owners use them
Usually to get to the shore when you’re anchored in a bay rather than on a marina pontoon
@@hugoandreae3785 Thank you.
Beautiful. What a phenomenal job. Obviously it seems to need a little bit of fitment refinements. Does remind me of Lazzara in some aspects. No crew cabins obviously because it's meant for an owner operator, but I almost wander if they couldn't have found a way to put in a crew cabin by taking the forward master suite and dividing it by 2, but with 2 bunk beds. Woukd make an interesting famiky med cruiser or a great boat to cruise around Australia with.
It's a horrible layout, look at an outter reaf yacht or a Fleming yacht of the same size., They are far better
There actually is a crew cabin under the foredeck, under the forward most hatch. (Bunk beds+heads)
The boat is great but the clock on screen is super annoying.
Nice layout and wood work. But unfortunately it looks like a small modern apartment inside
That’s what a lot of people want….
lol why you got mins and seconds on the video
For a long range cruiser, I would prefer a Nordhavn, or a FPB or GB. However, displacement or semi displacement (like this) boats are surely the way forward, with their lower purchase and running costs.
The beam seems excessive, and will incur double marina berthing costs like a cat.
I wonder how that beam will affect handling in a typical Solent chop or out in the Channel ?
The wheelhouse seems the least well thought through area, with sadly no helm or port side door for easy mooring.
And a rather weird sofa/bed opposite the helm.
The price of £1.7m + tax for a 16 kt boat is also excessive.
What's up with the counter in the top left corner?
Ha, I spent 5 minutes trying to turn that off myself - thinking that I had messed up a YT setting, until I realized it was part of the video. :/
Not sure why that’s popped up. Just checking to see if we can delete it this end.
Your HD is max a 480 or ur cam is junk
Very nice, but not my thing.
Might be allright for cruising the Med or some sheltered waterways - but doesn't have the look / robustness of a serious ocean passagemaker. All that external blond wood is going to be a nightmare to maintain.
1,000 nm is not the ultimate long range cruiser.. This concept of a sailboat hull is not new.. the ultimate Long range cruisers are the aluminum hull FPB's created by the Dashew's quite some time ago.
Ditch the annoying timer in the upper left corner.
lovely boat but for 2 million though .... 🤔
Long range.!!!!!???? 1100 at 8knots. Long range is over 3000.
What?!? No balconies? Missed opportunity. Not interested.
It's not remarkable headroom, it's an atrium.
"The ultimate long range motor yacht? " NO - with a range UP TO just *1,000 Nautical Miles* this is NOT a long range motor yacht FFS.
$2 million us
You left the timer running in the corner. Very distracting.
Sorry about that, seeing if it’s too late to get rid of it now.
Urgh. Just deal with it.
I'm afraid it was an error in the editing process. We can't now undo it without losing all our views. It won't happen again
Didn’t notice until you pointed it out - thank you😊
Please research what "long range" means. This video comes off as a poorly-disguised puff-piece. Regrettable all around. Do better.
60 ft of wasted space, not impressed
