Fine tour, looks at all aspects of the Absolute. It is a very cleverly designed boat, and I really appreciate the access to technical spaces in the small guest stateroom. There is a ton of accommodation packed into the boat, very roomy galley/salon and owner/VIP staterooms, but there are tradeoffs for that. The bow is quite plump, and I would be surprised if the ride doesn't become "sporty" when running into a head sea over one or two foot high. The side decks are a bit cramped, and the engine room is decidedly cramped by placing the gen set between the Volvo's. But those tradeoffs will be acceptable to many buyers.
Thanks. Though believe it or not, one of those herberts in the cockpit, doing his very best to scupper my video, was actually MBY's very own News Editor, Phil Draper!
Why don't you ever test 40 to 50 foot semi displacement boats, would make a change from planning boats. It's also about time all builders put fuel fillers on one side of the boats, it's common sense.
If money wasn't a factor, what speed-boat would you recommend for navigating the Aegean sea irrespective of season and weather conditions, one which could accommodate a family of five? Living on a boat I mean.

Considering how calm the sea was there were some awful slaps and bangs there

Giggled. Perfect timing.

Really enjoyed that Alex.
Well done for ignoring and working around the 2 herberts in the cockpit, too.... 👍

@alexsmith3945 Haha.... love it! 😂
This has all the bullet points checked off for the length of vessel and the destination length needed. Many thanks! 🤗
That is a really nice yacht, nice finishes throughout and plenty of room. Great tour Alex thank you.
Great tour and review Alex, thanks.
Several loud slaps at sea, which was concerning with how calm it was.
No drop balconies seems unusual nowadays.
I need yall to get the Pearl 82.
❤️

Have you not seen the recent Targa videos?
It’s not a Din -ete It a Dine …ete 😊
It's a French word, not English. He's one of the few people actually saying it correctly
Yeah, you've got that blissfully wrong. It's actually one of the very few things I pronounce correctly!
Alex is spot on. The correct pronunciation is Din- ette. Well done Alex.
