Thanks form you sharing your Journeys. Tony is proud of you, Freja has a beautiful proportion - closer to the 55 than the others. Truly Tony created a beauty.
Well done, this is the first time I've seen the Fleming pilot House presented in the way that makes it appealing for me. I don't know what it is about Fleming, but it's definitely growing on me.
Please keep the videos coming. With the amazing land and seascapes, as well as showing us the Fleming, allows us for a short while to escape this mad world we line in……
Enjoyed the video. Philippines look lovely. Very well-fitted, well-thought out pilothouse. Your decision to install separate charting systems is very smart. I had a small cruiser with two different chartplotters and one chart system went down in a tight, complicated area with shallow water outside of narrow channels that I had never been in before. I was so glad to have a back-up system!
Experience dictates a lot for you and me both! Thanks for noticing the intricacy of the design and thinking process. Hoping for plain sailing but you never know.
For the record it's 26 meters overall length but 22 meters waterline length, means it avoids Large Yacht regulations for those who that might apply to.
I remember the Fleming video when you had your 55. (Great music choice, BTW). Congratulations on your new boat. In the future, I would love to hear about your solar set up and how you use it in your cruising adventures. Thanks, Darin
The solar contributes well and our current draw on the 24V system is very modest during the day, perhaps 25 amps per hour. We obviously have more fridges and other yacht management going on than the 55 and 65 so negative 25A is pretty good in my opinion. Will try to discuss on another video
I’m curious to hear about your power needs while anchored for extended periods. Do y’all run the generator often? Do you go without a/c? Does the battery bank allow y’all to run everything overnight without the generator running?
Really enjoyed your boat and video. I have been watching David Flemings videos of his journeys in Alaska and the pacific northwest. I love Fleming yachts and where i live in Dana Point California the home of Nordhavn i dream about seeing a Fleming yacht in the Marina one day. Cheers from the Brit in California safe travels.
Man I would love to be a boat like that. So relaxing, but with all the processing stuff, gets annoying I’m guessing but rewarding in the end. Just subscribed
Thanks for asking. I said to my wife that someone would. They are from the cradle in the yard. Not sure why because it is antifouled. They are not speed stripes!! Well spotted tho
I would love it if you did a video about your annual running costs. I would love to sail the world in a Fleming as well. The allure of sailing and saving money on diesel as always front of my mind though.
Actually the diesel cost is not the main driving factor. Sure it adds up over time but so does the cost of replacement sails and sheets. I haven't worked out which is cheaper - probably sailing but not by a huge margin. I spent many years on sailing yachts and loved every minute of it.
It's working well! The Simrad also gives a simple forward scan too. Next we leave in 3 days to go across the top of Borneo into Indonesia. Lots of diving but we won't bore everyone with that too much
@@cruisingfrejahaha never a bore, it’s all exciting to us! Especially for us that are working towards doing exactly what you guys are doing right now. My wife likes to dive, and that is one of our main interest to start a life of cruising. Safe travels!
Hi guys, I’m really enjoying your content, Freja looks a wonderful boat. We’d love to film a review of her for our channel when she gets to Europe. Please let me know if that’s something you’d be interested in. All the best and fair winds - Jack (Reviews Director)
They are left from when the boat was in the cradle at the yard where she was built. They probably shouldn't show but they do for now and will disappear when we antifoul her next year. Thanks for watching.
Hej! I'll reply in English - thanks. Yes we are happy with the Humphree stabilisers. The technology is good and performance also. Power consumption is low. Many good points them. Tack så mycket
Looks like you have avoided overhead displays and kept that “clean” . I disliked that configuration as a service engineer. Trying to install or repair equipment was far more difficult. It also added to fatigue under way as you were constantly having to look up and down.
Spot on! I am not a fan of overhead displays. If looking important means something to you then put them overhead. If functionality is important don't bother.
Impressive helm station - well thought out! Are those Furuno monitors equiped with the 'double tap' anywhere on the display to return to prior screen [meaning you don't have use the menu to go back]? Anyhoo...fair winds and following seas on your journey! Until the next video...be well - many blessings! Cheers...
No they don't double tap backwards. As it's Windows based software it runs more like a laptop with a touch screen. Very powerful tho!! Next video soon. Just need to get the wifey to film it!
Impressive video. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching
Thanks so much for the pilot house tour. We look forward to seeing more of your awesome Fleming in future posts. Love following you guys!
We appreciate the feedback and hope you enjoy the future posts too!
Love this Fleming iwthout that closed in flybridge.
Thanks. It works for us
For a boat with such gorgeous lines the enclosed fly bridge just looks odd to my eye.
Thanks form you sharing your Journeys. Tony is proud of you, Freja has a beautiful proportion - closer to the 55 than the others. Truly Tony created a beauty.
I agree with your comment 100%. Lovely lines!!
Love the pilot house.
Thanks Barry!
Six docking stations is insane. Love this boat.
Easy to look like a rock star with 6 stations and EJS on each one. But nothing beats slow and careful docking!
Can’t wait to see the rest of the boat! Thanks for sharing.
No too far away. What next?
That is an incredibly well appointed bridge, I am a smidge jealous.
Thanks for noticing. Means a lot as i put many many hours into the layout and equipment choices
Thank you for showing us around the inside of your boat. Very helpful.
There is more to come. Try to make it more interesting too
Thanks for sharing, love your videos. Can't wait for more content.
More coming soon from the top of Borneo

Thank you. We'll show the engine room soon!

Fantastic boat, really like the Fleming 85. So looking forward to more Freja boat tours.
More to come! Shortly we hope

If you win lotto go for it. You wont regret it
Stunning Yacht. I do hope i can have such kind of yacht in the future.
I hope you do too. It is a pleasure to enjoy.
Beautifully appointed pilot house and nave station. Love that the 2 of you are driving an over 24 meter yacht. Sets a great example for me. 🙌🏻
Thank you. We appreciate your comments. More interior videos to come
For the record it's 26 meters overall length but 22 meters waterline length, means it avoids Large Yacht regulations for those who that might apply to.
*nice layout..**many blessing's..🆒💙.
Thank you! You too!
Appreciate the walk through of your pilot house. Looking forward to seeing more of your MY.
More to come!

So great!! Thank you so much for sharing!! We are getting ready to purchase a boat next year, love your style 🎉
We wish you the absolute best. Purchase the boat that meets your needs and dont live with any regrets!
Thank you for sharing your beautiful Fleming 85 with me. May all your journeys be safe and wonderous.
Thank you so much!
Really well put together film. Beautiful islands too 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you. Always trying to improve without spending too many $$$ on gear

A Brit in California. This isn't Harry incognito haha
What a boat and what a voyage
Off around the top of Borneo in a couple of days
wow nice boat welcome to philippines
Loved the Philippines - we'll be back
Beautiful area beautiful boat!
It really is!
Love sailing boats.
So do I!! Classic shaped sailing yachts
I adore your boat, but………………………..you are perfectly suited. Enjoy.
Thank you! 😃
Man I would love to be a boat like that. So relaxing, but with all the processing stuff, gets annoying I’m guessing but rewarding in the end. Just subscribed
Haha, boat life is never annoying
Fair winds and tailwinds .
Love a good tailwind. Fingers crossed
Looking forward to a one hour walk thru of your new 85
I will let Johanna know. She'll have to open the cupboards also :)
Fabulous! what are the ribs going across the bottom of the hull?
Thanks for asking. I said to my wife that someone would. They are from the cradle in the yard. Not sure why because it is antifouled. They are not speed stripes!! Well spotted tho
Enroute to Kota Kinabalu at the mo .. whilst looking on MT
Good journeys n adventures
Wow! Unfortunatley we're on the other side of Sabah now but KK is such a great place, enjoy and thanks for watching!

Thank you for the video! Definitely a robust system lineup! A dream setup. What’s after the Philippines?
It's working well! The Simrad also gives a simple forward scan too.
Next we leave in 3 days to go across the top of Borneo into Indonesia. Lots of diving but we won't bore everyone with that too much

Thanks jack, absolutely. Perhaps DM Johanna on insta @freja_f85
We arrive Europe in April or May 2025
What are those strips running perpendicular to the keel?
They are left from when the boat was in the cradle at the yard where she was built. They probably shouldn't show but they do for now and will disappear when we antifoul her next year. Thanks for watching.
tqvmm
You're welcome
Fin brygga... Är ni nöjda med elektriska stabilisatorer?
Hej! I'll reply in English - thanks. Yes we are happy with the Humphree stabilisers. The technology is good and performance also. Power consumption is low. Many good points them.
Tack så mycket
Your boats bottom is immaculate. How do you keep it like that?
Easy when the water is warm and clear to jump in. But the growth does come quickly in the tropics
Great job you just need some work on your camera and editing quality - resolution and “jerkiness” when panning.
Thanks for the feedback, I agree the panning doesn't work - trying to shoot more from a still type of footage. Appreciate the comment

@@cruisingfreja Thank you. I'm a big fan of Furuno's technology. Not cheap...but the best never is! Cheers...
