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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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. 🍀
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.
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.
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.
A much more practical, sturdier and more seaworthy vessel than the glitzy, boring, over-the-top yachts of the super rich that look as though they'd capsize in a light breeze.
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.
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
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.
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.
The day I hit the lottery, my first purchase would be a ship like that to go to Paris, and the Mediterranean, then Alaska! And put a crab equipment, just to fish for some Alasken crabs! Would add extra freezers, and refrigerators for those long voyages!😊😊
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🇬🇧.
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.
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.
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.
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 👍
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.
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.
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.
Very Nice the only thing I would change is the smaller lifeboat and inflatable I would change to the upper deck behind the basic cabin and add 1 winch and mast & boom to lower and load them that would free up all of the cargo area for loading and unloading
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.
Good looking rugged Yacht. However, I would never go to deep see without backup propulsion, so, I was glad to see the backup motor. I have seen long range Yachts with a single motor, but I would never consider one with a single motor as safe. I saw a video of a couple of guys delivering a long range Yacht with a single motor and no backup and the motor died. They were almost in a world of hurt, but were able to figure out the problem after several hours and got back on track. I did see a walk through on a long range Yacht that had a single motor, but the heavy generator was it's back up propulsion system. My only criticism for this one is it needs a bigger and stronger main motor. Slightly under powered and slow in my opinion. Also, aluminum framing for the front windows would be a concern. Seen windows blown out on videos in heavy seas. The plus of this one is all that space up front! A lot someone could do with that. Thanks for the walk through!
Thanks John. The boat looks good. It just appears to need a woman's touch to make it more desirable with more bedding and cushions. It seems like sparse grass at the moment. It looks perfectly functional and seawprthy. I just wondered what is that large empty space before the engine room being used for. Perhaps it should be converted into a crew area?
She's a lovely Girl, I could see myself in Alaska, The Caribbean, down the coast of Chile, over to Hawaii, then the leisurely sail from the Marshall Islands (lol,...leisurely) down to New Zealand and then to Australia. Then on Day 2,.......All kidding aside, she's a beautiful and capable looking Boat that would suit pretty much all my wants. I agree that adding a couple dive tank compressors would be a must, and possibly even converting that one tank into another fuel tank however I think I would leave the cargo hold alone. Perhaps add some pallet shelving along the sides for durable and safe storage but leave the rest open for a couple of Dual Purpose Adventure Bikes and enough area to carry 6-9 pallets of goods. Handy for if the World gets really crazy or even just as a cargo hold for goods bound to another Island or place withing the range of this Lady.
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 ⚓⚓
Thanks for watching! Don't forget to check out my website: yacht-buoy.com/
Nice video:) so the main engine must run to get stability at anchor ?
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.🇨🇮👏
Beautiful! This is a boat as I imagine it to be. I am sure it can withstand any conditions
If I ever won the Lottery, this is exactly the kind of ship I'd invest in.
True 👍

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.

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.
This is a wonderful explore motor yacht, I am surprise she has been for sale for so long.

If only these boats go up in value just like houses do. What a marvel of a boat.

That's how some rural communities feel about their houses as well...

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 :)
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.

18:09 = straight to the best refit company i could source. The boat has potential.

get a sailboat
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.
Gosh it has beautiful lines.
A real classic.
Now this is a classy looking boat!! Very nice!! 👍

Good many possible upgrades ,with extra budget to do so……Nice. 👍
Now that's a great 'bug out' vehicle.
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.
Electric bikes, paddle boards, provisions, hammocks for extra passengers, exercise machine,
Beauty! The colour of the hull really fits!!
same thing... if i won the lotto...i would buy this boat in the heartbeat. Perfect boat for everything and anything

That's a cracking piece of kit. I'd love it😊
Thank you for this video. I love long range steel explorer yachts and long range steel trawlers!🎉🎉🎉
Thanks for watching! I think you will like my next video :-)
A working man's vessel...I love it..pity they didn't cost £5000..😅..I'm a ex shipyard welder and the quality of this is spot on..
I wish I had the money. I wouldnt mind to buy the vessel. She looking beautiful
Line Cutter on the Prop Shaft is smart.
Perfect for my dream.. Capetown - Rio..with lots of space to carry a few mini containers..
Fantastic ship, reminds me about my childhood hero, Tintin and the ship Sirius.
I'd turn that storage room into an office / home theater.

This thing as a motorsailor and you got my boat.....like that "serious work boat" design a lot.

Thanks 👍
A ketch rig on a motoryacht?
If I were lucky enough to be able to afford this boat, i would keep its exactly how it is.
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...
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 👍

Don't think that it has stabilisation.
Yo ships. This lady is dying for her own theme song. Summer, by bensound. As always, great works and thank you.
