Very nice ship with fine lines. I like ships that are built as professional ships without a cocktail atmosphere. Nice engine room. I would build a sauna in the hold. Thumbs up for this ship. Thanks for showing it and greetings from Sweden.
I would love living on a boat like this with my wife. That cargo hold looks like it could hold a Kei truck, which would be a decent runabout vehicle when in port. Good for getting supplies.
Absolutely love the schematic that flashes up as we enter a space onboard, giving us a clear view of where we are. I’ve not seen that on any other videos and can’t imagine why not.
Why not just buy it with what you have ? That's what banks are for. Work out an investment/ return plan and make the ship pay for itself. Money is there plentiful, time isn't.
Billions of Blue Blistering Barnacles! Capt. Haddock here. She be a lovely ship mates! Price seems reasonable too. I hope it would include a full day of detailed instructional information on all the systems and machinery. Smooth water ahead!
Great tour! Yacht Bouy was already one of my favorite channels; I enjoy the type of boats you choose, and there’s something about your voice, delivery and attitude that make your tours extremely enjoyable. All of that said, you moved straight to top of my ‘favorite channels’ list when you said you’d keep a couple of Harleys in the cargo space. That, and the “escaping from humanity for months or even years at a time” comment. Now I KNOW you’re my kind of guy. What say you get half a million, I’ll get half a million, we’ll put in those dive compressors you mentioned, grab our scuba gear, load up our Harleys, fill that 13.8K liter fuel tank, and head out on the high seas!
I would absolutely leave those two areas as dry storage and a workshop. I'm often surprised how few long range boats have spare parts visible on board. I would think that either one of those areas would have some heavy duty shelving for spare parts along with oil change equipment, etc. I would hate to be out in the north Atlantic and be stranded because I didn't bring an extra part that is easily changed by the owner. Especially one that is not readily available in any port like spark plugs or filters. Just my 2 cents....Greetings from Texas....John B.
Just spotted this video pop up and thought, I like the look of that. Never having sailed before except for a ferries I would need to learn a lot upon buying that great boat. Then load it with plenty of food supplies, welder generator for emergencies, push bike and my trusty loyal German Shepherd and depart on a journey around the world over as many years as I could healthily manage from the age I am today at 57.
A really great no nonsense long range cruser. However for long Atlantic crossings and Pacific ones she definitely needs that extra fuel capacity. As you suggested you'd also need to fit sola panels. Suprised about the lack of fiddle rails and pan clamps on the cooker. All that storage space would be needed for long distance travelling. Makes a nice change to see a proper boat and not a gin palace with a flying bridge etc.
Great boat . . That big room . . Extra freezer space . Dry goods , flour etc . And to add to the autonomy of the ship .a black water treatment system . . Love it . . 👍🍻🇳🇿twa
This is a wonderful explore motor yacht, I am surprise she has been for sale for so long. If I won the National Lottery, I would snap up this vessel straight away.
Amazing boat! The little inset floorplan showing filming locations within the boat was awesome!! Really enjoyed this video, thank you for posting it! Best regards from Brasilia, Brazil.
Awesome boat mate, I would take it on a circumnavigation of Antarctica, use that forward utility area as food storage,and perhaps another reserve Fuel tank. I remember when you had 3000 subs,your exceptional presenting style and knowledge has deservedly seen your numbers grow, keep going mate,stay well.
Boat deck should be on top of the coach roof. Leave that bow wide open for other things. I absolutely love the looks of steel trawlers and tugs as M/Y.
Love the versatility of this craft and the spud pole is a great idea something I had never come across before but see the advantages. Love its lines and simple interior styling.
That engine-room alone has more space than some condos lol For the large cargo/storage area, maybe add a couple multi-exercise machines/benches or just a rower/bike, and maybe use the rest of it for bulk dry/can goods stowage.
Thanks for this tour! I really love the practical nature of this design with a cargo hold! What an interesting boat to cruise home to Australia in! Watching again now as I didn’t catch if she had active stabilisation - keep up the good work 👍
As a mechanical engineer with a love for machine tools and metalwork, the space would be perfect to put a machine shop. Milling machine and lathe. Maybe a blacksmiths and welding set-up. That would probably make the most unusual private Yacht in the world lol.
We'd family cruise the west of Ireland and the Scottish west coast and hebrides too. Plus a winter sail north. Then a re-fit in Iceland and onto the north west passage as the Pacific northwest beckons... Well, thats what we'd do..😊
Thanks John, needed this video. Have been looking at this boat for ages and could not fathom the layout of cabins. Yes, split the heads, crazy. I'd keep 4 dirt bikes in the hold for motorcycle charters in South America.
Though far from austere it is definitely lacking in some areas. It needs a larger and better equipped galley and it has too much unused space. A covered upper deck would be a nice touch also. Yes, I understand this is an explorer trawler built for sea-worthiness and distance but unless you're Fridtjof Nansen you would probably appreciate a few more amenities.
electrician did a great job. Much easier when labor hours is NOT a factor; this gives a true technician the ability to do their best. Good electrical work takes ALOT of time.
Love it! I would have to convert the cargo area into a play room for my crew. They get feisty if they don't get enough play time with the Captain. Be happy, be safe
So wise , Thank You . Looks like a fine seaworthy design . I like the Storage space , the Spud pole is interesting . Bridge looks well designed and operational. I do consiter a work bench and work area vital. i do like the engine room and the access to the stearing . Access to every thing looks well maintained , accessable , and usable. Thank You.
Excellent work. I have a 30 Dory cutter. All electric. Been in crypto for quite a while, now. Planning on a Nordhavn 56 motorsailer in 2 - 3 years.. With what's going on in the world right now.. Everyone fighting. I'm sailing away. Thanks again for all the work you do. And good luck everyone. 🍀
Very nice ship. I have seen her before. Nice and clean solutions, not so many places for insects to hide. Easy to maintain clean outside. I only miss a ketch rig for stability and safety then this ship is perfect. Great job sir!
If I remember right the cargo hold was used before as a garage for a Land Rover Defender. An extra cabin would be my choice as 3 cabins is not a lot for such a big boat.
Fantastic boat! I would not do a thing to the cargo space. In fact, I wouldn't mind if it were a feet or two longer! I would use it for supplies and also keep a ATV, a scooter or a snowmobile there depending on location and time of year.
Im not a sailor, but i would absolutely die for a no-nonsense all electric boat in almost this exact format designed for long-term liveaboard. Slap on a starlink, get a small office, and make money on the ocean traveling the world.
This boat is an absolut beauty. Cosy and functionnal, and not looking like Floating night club. A real Boat. I would be curious how many crew you need to sail it and how much maintenance cost per year you should expect...
I was at the Southampton boat show a couple of weeks ago looking at those multi million pound Sunseekers and feeling no interest in them at all. My wife thinks they're amazing. The cargo hold and the workshop space on this, a proper workable boat would be so much better for me.
Hi, I love this boats clean practical lines,nothing flash like some floating gin palaces.If I were young enough with the means I would definitely be interested. The for’d hold I would use for provisions,maybe some canvas to rig as aux.sails to assist the engine.A great tour,cheers.Roly🇬🇧.
I love the blend of old-world charm and modern interior design. Im not a big fan of Battleship Gray, so a trip to Drydock for a paint job would be in order. I'd install a Black water treatment system as well while she was there. I can see a pair of Ducati Multistrada's in the cargo hold. If I were going to liveaboard full-time, I'd also install a hydroponic farming system. Lovely, go anywhere vessel.
I saw some drawing on the listing for crew quarters in the cargo hold area that I would use as a guide. Probably update the electrical with solar and more or better batteries so you could at least have enough energy storage to turn the generator off for awhile. I would also look at putting an induction stove and electric oven so you could get rid of the propane. I would love this boat if I had the money and time.
With that hold, you can become a "mission" ship. Switch between scientific or dive support equipment for instance. Built sturdy enough to go anywhere except deep artics.
Re: the front cargo hold area , I would enlarge the opening hatch to fit the Ford Troller T4 4x4 , or an old 1960's LR-1-LR-2 Land Rover. Having a crane setup for in/out And a pair of Honda Africa Twin Dual Sport bikes. On the other spectrum a Robinson R22 Helicopter with removable blades/tail would also fit nicely in there. With imagination and money , your options are vast. I like the " Working " class of this vessel as its Purposeful for true Exploration and the Northwest Passage is calling her name ......
That's a nice boat or should I say ship John! Last time I saw a ship called Sirius was a Leander class frigate F40 back in the 70's/80's. A bit big for me but if I was minted I'd have a skipper and crew of course haha. Cheers shipmate ⚓⚓
Very nice lines and very nice angles. Any possibility of moving the bridge superstructure forward and building out the back with a saloon and dining area opening onto the back teak deck and swim platform either the Rigid Inflatable (cabined) and davot both located on the roof ?
I would add a walk in refrigerator with a freezer inside it for more food storage. I didn't see a dinning room so I would add that. Crew quarters were lacking.
It's perfect for my tastes. At first it seemed not very luxurious (given the price) but based upon the way it is set up, it is designed for practical uses and I'm okay with that.
Myself.... wining the lotto. I'd dock it in Miami. Explore the Caribbean, go to Cancun. See the Islands. Brazil. Id love that soo much. Id feel like Jaque Cousteau on the Calypso.
Very nice and thank you. I would want this as a “bug out” boat, stocked for a lengthy stay in a relatively out of the way anchorage. Packed with food stuffs and a few extra barrels of drinking water in the hold. Did I mention a Ma Deuce with several thousand rounds of ammo, mounted topside when danger approaches?
I've never see so much functionality and conservative elegance in a boat, not even in a trawler yacht. Money can't buy good taste if you don't already have it.

I love the no nonsense functionality of this boat
🫡
Yeah, definitely looks to have the capability of an expedition vessel. I’d feel confident taking that to some unknown, remote region of the world.
Dishwasher was a head scratcher
Showing the map of the ship with the spaces marked as we tour them is a great idea

The blue position dot is extremely helpful. It’s too easy get lost during tours and I have made this point to another TH-camr. Well done.🇨🇮👏
Great walkaround. The map insert for the location is a great touch too. Makes it easier to know were you are in the video. Thanks.
Thanks for the tips!

I really like the interior of this vessel. It's comfortable, without being ostentatious.
100%
A bit sad and non-functional on my taste
@@io_metre Non-functional?? You must be thinking of a different video. Or I guess you could have a very weird life.

M/Y Sirius my favorite ship,,,,hello from Finland
18:09 = straight to the best refit company i could source. The boat has potential.
Which company would you choose?
@@YachtBuoy Worth a look. Burger Boat Company Manitowoc, WI
Stunning woodwork John, beautifully done and finished, what a diamond, Thank you!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it 🫡
Sirius is the name of Captain Haddock ship in the Tintin series of books, look’s very similar also
That was my first thought. Calculus is sleeping in the life boat. 🤣
its why i clicked to watch :)

Glad you enjoyed it!
Don't think that it has stabilisation.
Beautiful! This is a boat as I imagine it to be. I am sure it can withstand any conditions
Beauty! The colour of the hull really fits!!

Absolutely a great vessel. I'll take it. I would have to install a Cummins diesel for a second engine
Would also add solar power
If only these boats go up in value just like houses do. What a marvel of a boat.
@@imilliemedina666
That's how some rural communities feel about their houses as well...
Gosh it has beautiful lines.
A real classic.

electrician did a great job. Much easier when labor hours is NOT a factor; this gives a true technician the ability to do their best. Good electrical work takes ALOT of time.
That's a cracking piece of kit. I'd love it😊
Nice boat, great for cruising the canals in Europe and see new places.
With broadcast equipment being so much smaller that it was this would make an excellent pirate radio station.
Pirate stations don’t exist anymore.
We have internet.
A very functional and classic ship , good for long range sailing …suitable in sea of my country .
Greeting from Indonesia….🇮🇩🇱🇺…

This is a very nicely appointed vessel indeed!

Where won’t I go !! Beautiful !
Probably the most apocalypse ready vessel yet. Lend me that cool mill
Great ship! Has much potential for simple refits!
Neat boat, lots of room, I really like the chine configuration
Now that's a great 'bug out' vehicle.
Stunning wood panelled interior !!
Very nice ship. I have seen her before. Nice and clean solutions, not so many places for insects to hide. Easy to maintain clean outside. I only miss a ketch rig for stability and safety then this ship is perfect. Great job sir!
Thanks 👍
A ketch rig on a motoryacht?
Yo ships. This lady is dying for her own theme song. Summer, by bensound. As always, great works and thank you.
If I remember right the cargo hold was used before as a garage for a Land Rover Defender. An extra cabin would be my choice as 3 cabins is not a lot for such a big boat.
You don't remember right
That was the m/v andros
Although they've removed the land rover now and she's been for sale for several years now...
Fantastic boat! I would not do a thing to the cargo space. In fact, I wouldn't mind if it were a feet or two longer! I would use it for supplies and also keep a ATV, a scooter or a snowmobile there depending on location and time of year.
This would be perfect for off grid cruising!
same thing... if i won the lotto...i would buy this boat in the heartbeat. Perfect boat for everything and anything

Perfect for my dream.. Capetown - Rio..with lots of space to carry a few mini containers..

Personally I would set the storage area up as a micro brewery, making good use of that watermaker.
nice! 🙌🫡
Never run out of beer!
I like the way you think….lol 🍻😁

Yes, absolutely
