This is a LOT of boat for a 57 footer. Perfect size for an owner-operator and It's very nicely spec'd. Just as impressive is the aesthetics and color scheme although I do prefer high gloss rather than satin finishes. Excellent walkthrough thanks!
Thanks Jon!
Excellent walk round that is really nice unit and well looked after
Glad you enjoyed it
Great walkthrough! Stunning boat, just need a lottery win now!
Thanks and Good luck!
Beautiful boat. The owner and myself got the same taste it seems. Cheers
Very nice! Current owner has a good taste in design!
Good comprehensive walk through James, with VAT paid, a winner!
Thanks Steve, hopefully she will be back in the water soon with a new owner!
Beautiful boat great tour
Another very informative video, congrats
James, lovely boat and a great tour, many thanks! One quick question, do people/owners sail their own boats to and from the Med, or do they rely on third party transport ships and/or ferry crew?
very nice boat
If you can just nudge the decimal point a couple of places to the left, I think we have a deal.
I have what is potentially a daft question but So far I do all my cruising on rivers in 44 foot boats but have always wondered if I won the lottery would I be able to buy something like this and how easily would it be to cruise it myself if need be? Or would I be better off looking at something smaller for my first coastal boat?
Hi, that's definitely not a daft question! To be honest, if you can drive a single screw hire boat, you can pretty much drive anything! (I grew up boating on the Thames and the close quarters manoeuvring on inland waterways is often more challenging than sea boating). We have owners that start out with small ribs and work up, similarly owners that start at 90ft and throw all their energy at learning how to operate in a safe fashion.
Up to a point, once you have confidence, boats get easier to drive as they get bigger (for me the end sweet spot is around 86ft - as a still doable owner-operator), the wind and tide has less effect on a larger boat, so you have more time to conduct operations.
Something like the Pred57 with twin shaft engines and typically a bow/stern thruster, is very simple to handle. You can see all the 'corners' from the helm, docking cameras, joysticks, proportional thrusters, cockpit controls etc all make life even easier.
Changing up from one boat to the next can be an expensive exercise, so I would always try to find the right boat to suit what a client intends to do with it, always a balance of budget, expectations, location of usage and number of persons staying onboard etc.
If you're ever in the lucky position to turn the dream into a reality, fix your budget including annual expenditure and then let your heart rule your head. The 'right' boat gives you a tingle inside every time you walk up and step onboard, owning a boat is a slightly crazy thing to do (just ask any accountant!), but that's what makes it so special.
How do you clean the inside of the windows, {the ones located above the galley? And to the Starboard side of the helm!}
Hi Gordon, we use an extendable mop pole with a cloth on the end (you can buy in good hardware stores for laminate flooring), works really well.
Can you clear something up for me, please, James? You said the boat has dps, great, but the spec determines the engines to be d13 900 hp. I was under the impression the dps was only available on d13 1000 hp. Am I wrong?
Hi Rik, we can fit DPS to pretty much any Volvo. It was launched originally with IPS drives as the pods can hold station in all weathers, but with the advent of proportional electric thrusters, can now be made to work on a shaft boat.
It still has some limitations as the electric thrusters will eventually kick the thermal cutout in and knock the system out, but it’s good enough for most typical scenarios that you’d use it in.
Doing things like lining boat up head to wind/tide prior to activating the system will mean the computer is using the props to keep boat centralised (with minor tweaks from the thrusters), then it will last a lot longer.
Hope that makes sense. James
The Virtual Yacht Broker Ah, my mind never stops playing me up until I get an answer. I appreciate you sorting it out for me, thank you.
