I’d love this boat. You would not think it was 15 years old. I’m not too sure how well the inclusion of a brig with ironing board would be received in certain quarters though. :)
If you’re going to buy a used boat, buy one from an owner like this one had. Boat maintenance is an endless, expensive task - but it doesn’t half show when it is done by someone who loves the boat with a passion.
What a spectacularly well appointed and finished Yacht. Clearly the owner has taken such good care and attention to detail to a whole other level. You are correct, I have never seen a hidden laundry room on a boat before. The level of build detail is outstanding. Thanks for the tour of such an impressive yacht.
Not a sharp angle in sight, everything rounded off or curved including the cockpit door which I don't think I've seen before. A lot of boat for the price of a house, stunning. Thanks for the tour Nick 👍😎
Again wonderful Boat thank you very much Nick your attention to details and your explanation and practicality on the boat and the running of it and looking in every nook and cranny that's fantastic your reviews are most welcoming...👍🏿😊
This has to be the best value for money boat you've ever toured. The laundry room is fantastic, a secret hide away. This is a liveable boat, a goldilocks boat, not too big, not too small, just right. It's goldilocks all round, almost everything is just right. Excellent tour as per usual, editing magic and cameo from Maggie, pure gold. Take care of yourself and stay safe. 👍👍👍🚢🛥☠⛴🛳⚓🚤⛵😎
This is absolutely what I’m looking for! Perfect price, perfect size and perfect spec! Great boat all round and brilliant tour as always! I love Fridays at Midday! Have a great weekend
A bit big for a first timer like me though. Something 30 to 44 foot as a training cruiser would be perfect (after 44 feet you start hitting more red tape and regulations).
I believe this might be the best used boat you have reviewed, of those that I've seen anyway, and regardless of it's age. Fairline never seem to disappoint.
Magic? This whole time I thought you were just a very talented muggle. Know I know how you get people to keep watching your videos. We're on to your dastardly dark arts of entertainment.
Had to watch this one a second time! What a fine ship! The woodwork, the AV equipment, the galley w/ cabin-size utility room! The cabin door handles, and everything else good, all for £359k. That really is a very nice simple interior layout design. Good.
I love the design of these early 21st century Fairlines. It's all lovely curves, even the main doors in the cockpit are curved. I also love the sunken galley, neither on the main deck or down below, sort of in between. And the storage in the utility room, very very useful. Not mad on the high gloss cherry though, it was fashionable at around this time but much prefer a satin finish, walnut or oak. Think I could live with it though, beautiful boat and good value it seems.
I actually have seen a hidden laundry/utility room with a pop-out ironing board tucked away behind the galley on a similar sized yacht before, but now I can't remember if it was one of your later videos or from another channel (NautiStyles, etc.). I've watched so many yacht tours over the years it's so easy to lose track. That said, this is only the second time I've ever seen anything like that, and I actually think it's great - could be a great overflow pantry area and of course laundry. This boat fits the bill for liveaboard much more than most other 58' craft IMO. I also really liked how both guest cabins were truly comfortable and not cramped - probably the benefits of having a bow master rather than an aft master. And while I'd normally prefer a full-beam master, I thought this one was perfectly spacious and well-appointed. I can see why the owner cares so much for this vessel. Superb.
This vessel is simply stunning and has features that I adore in yachts in general. It's nor boring and plain like new yachts. It has curves, flows and features hidden throughout it. But it's not focused solely on sunbathing, which is where most of these vessels can fit 20+ people sunbathing but sleep 8+2 crew. This has the area beautifully setup. The sole annoyance I had, which could be fixed would be the squeak from that walkway platform at the aft of the vessel. That's really nothing major and could be easily fixed. Some upgraded engines and navigation and this would be iconic as a vessel given the price I think it already is. Well done. Please keep more like this coming. Fascinating vessel. If you have time, I would love to see you do a tour of a Conquest 405, I know that is not your normal vessel but that is stunning as well. Cheers.
Nick these 58 foot boats just don't have the Extra Room that you need for guests & Crew of Two . I Enjoy your presentation of this Smaller boat . Thanks Nick. Cheers
I don't really know how to explain what it is exactly, but something about how yout talk and present boats is far more comfortable to watch than any other boat showing-off / sales channel on youtube I've seen.
What a great boat! Sleeps 6 crew of 2, separate laundry room, sub 60’ and £359K? Now all I need to do is convince the Mrs that this is the own. Fingers crossed. Bravo!
That storage area accessible from the galley is a stroke of genius! A feature every vessel needs. Storage is the biggest issue on any vessel you will be staying aboard for any length of time. The ironing board is brilliant! There are always a few items that look much better with a quick pressing after a wash. This truly is a small luxury yacht worthy of the name.
This is one of the coolest layouts I’ve seen on here for a boat of this size. This will definitely be at the top of my favorites list, until something better comes up. The lay-out is so unique. Most boats of a given size are all very similarly configured. Thats what makes this my favorite, its not “cookie cutter” designing. Its a shame more manufacturers don’t try different designs.
Fairline is a absolut blast,...real good quality especially the older ones. I had a 2007 Phantom 40 Fly for many years moored in mallorca. just sold it this week !!! sad but true...
What engine(s) did you have, and what was the range like at lower speeds? 300 miles blasting around the bay is fine for a day out, but if you are making a longer passage that could get expensive real quick. Thanks.
Well it's taken a year of being subscribed to your channel Nick and finally, I have found the boat that is exactly for me... I didn't have my hearing aids in at the time as I had just showered and was drying up with a towel over my head, and so the visual imagery of the lounge and kitchen without audio etc and that was enough for me... Now, I'm not sure if my right to buy council flat would stretch to the budget of this boat, but, if I had the money... this would be it... lovely....
Lovely boat incredible condition and nearly affordable just need £358,000. Simple. Again great work Nick keep finding these marvellous boats so we all can dream one day.
Another awesome video Nick. You are killing it. I love seeing you waving at the mirror and your Douchebag. These two thungs are becoming a classic !!! Thank you for allowing me to have 10-20 minutes of fun and relax while watching your videos
Hi Nick, now I’ve watched just about every boat tour you have done right back to the early days ! That is by far the best boat I have seen ! Very unique lay out, completely broke the mould with that one ! Tribute to its owner too 👌🏼. Beauty !
Again, another great video on a very reasonably priced alternative for those of us who don’t have the means to buy a new yacht. Love it! One of the best ones so far! Thank you dear sir!
What a fantastic interior! I love the woodwork and especially the way everything has curves and is laid out at different elevations. Even the stairs inside to the flybridge are beautifully architected.
This boat looks like the perfect liveaboard for a couple as it has so many areas to get on with your separate activities. She also looks well built to withstand the test of time. Very getattable boat for the majority Nick! lol
What a superb boat, wonderful layout, superbly looked after, what a gem. Thanks to both you Nick and the generous owner for letting us view this beauty.
Are we understand correctly, you buying your wonderful wife a, may I add a 2nd hand ironing board, failed to tell her it was attached to a Fairline Squadron 58. Priceless...
This is honestly a brilliant layout. Fantastic way to try and bring the yacht feel to a much smaller boat which they maxed out wonderfully. The price is outstanding too. Fantastic peice of kit. For sure will sell quickly. The galley is incredible
You can’t imagine how much I look forward to your new videos. For me they’re like therapy. I can forget all the craziness in the world for 10-15 minutes and fantasise about a more relaxing life on the ocean wave 🌊
That is an amazing amount of boat for the money! I love the way the galley is part of the saloon/dinette, but also tucked away a bit, just right. The utility room is a much better use of space (to my mind) than having a vast, full beam master cabin which is mainly wasted space. That forward master cabin is more than big enough, again IMO. Thanks Nick!
Agree 100% on your comments. This yacht design/layout had what no other has or has had. The slightly sunken galley position with the utility room facility is just perfect, as galley's on this size yacht are always a compromise for anything more than a week away (Stefan Kreft)! What are your views on the internal stairs to the Flybridge (snipedoctor Fred) and the crew cabin/lazarette vs having a more accessible engine room/garage, and room to house a generator (MrCrystalcranium)?
Love it...very nice and affordable. If I owned it, I'd definitely drop a 7.5 or 10 kW generator in it somewhere. BTW Nick, your tours are the best on The Tube. I watch lots of yacht tour videos and I love your tours the best. Denison comes in a close second but I cant tell you how many times I see a gorgeous yacht in the right margin and I click on the video only to be disappointed by the production and the quality of the walkthroughs. There's one company who deals in very high end luxury yachts with very high video production standards but all they give you are close ups of details without ever showing the scale and perspective like taking you into a gorgeous and spacious salon and showing you a close up of wine glasses hanging in an overhead rack!. Another channel has incredible yachts with a skinny and crazed Italian speaker running around acting like a goofball! There's yet another that has an older and portly gentleman (who may own the yacht broker company if I remember correctly) who has such a sleep inducing voice and presence while he rubs a teak side rail you just want to take a nap instead of watch the video! And then, of course, walkthroughs of magnificent boats and NO ENGINE ROOM TOURS!!!!! I can't tell you how disappointed that makes me! Keep up the great work. Absolutely the best yacht walkthroughs out there!
That is a gorgeous boat and great use of space aboard. It would be great if it was just the boat to buy but with marina costs, servicing and fuel for two big engines, insurance and all other bits and bobs, I'm guessing a bit but it must be 20-30 k a year to run, so I think a very wealthy person who has some loose change to run her. Still I'll keep doing the lottery
Sounds about right. I would normally go with setting aside 2 to 3 times the original purchase price (including options and PWCs) as an operational buffer for any boat.
Hi Nick. This yacht is awesome. This is what a yacht with lots of style looks like. Hard to tell its not new because of the new headliners and all the other additions to the original. Worth every penny. A stunning boat.
It's Friday Fantastic day with Lord Nickquaholic! Fantastic boat that was, with respectable crew accommodation and underground storage with no loss to anywhere else on the boat fantastic. Cheered me up no end. Thankyou so much, brilliant.
HA!! I guessed right! I saw it, and when Nick said, "Can you guess?" I thought "Ironing board?" (Made sense, since the washer/dryer were there). And, I'm really impressed with this boat; I love the layout, and the "hidden" compartment off the kitchen was just awesome, a fantastic use of space. As always, great tour, thank you very much!!
Wow! I know I've said this on a couple of the tours, but this is a crazy amount of boat for that kind of money. 58' is a great size for anyone who isn't dead set on a crew and besides the gloss wood everywhere I'd be easily fooled into believing this is much less than 15 years old! Love these kinds of reviews, I love ogling at the latest and greatest mega yachts and if I could afford a Nordhavn I'd likely be declared missing after the first year away, but I absolutely love these little gems that most of us wouldn't even notice sitting in the marina. Great work as always Nick!
i like these older yacht tours better than the newer yachts , really shows which manufacturer in terms of styling & layout holds up over time ... also a vast more people will be in the market for a used older yacht in the $300k - $700k range than a brand new one that's well over 1 million ---- great vid!
She is beautiful!! ❤️❤️❤️ Good job putting that utility room between the cabins and the engine bay! This is so that you can stuff it with enough goodies to make it serve also as soundproofing. Speaking of engine rooms, that is so immaculately maintained that it looks like she had just left the factory only yesterday.
For a 15 year old boat this is well spec'ed and designed. Also aged well - love how they have separated the galley from the lounge and dinning area. Feels like a boat you could have extended stays on. Very nice.
As a boatmaniac I’m addicted to your videos Nick, best boat reviews on the net, period. Great work. You must show us an Outer Reef Trident! 550 or 620 doesn’t matter. ;-)
who would've thought that indoor flybridge access stairs could look so stylish? ;) Kind of tied the room together, like a sculpture! Something about these 2000s boats are so warm and inviting. The high gloss (cherry?) woods, the curves, the lighting....I like the styling of the boats now too, but you see a lot of sharp lines now and more "muted" colors. That utility room is a nice touch! It does take some space away from other areas, but who wouldn't want more space to work with in a galley that size (not to mention, a whole 'nother fridge). It's like having that cellar/pantry from the kitchen you see in a lot of old houses :)
Quite good value for money here, and an excellent example of why you might prefer a used boat. I love that utility room and it’s location. There are, of course, some dated details that you’d want to address, but nothing that it desperately needs. Nice boat. Oh, and I love the layout of that flybridge, one of the nicest I’ve seen. And as always, an excellent Aquaholic Tour!
A sub 60ft boat that can possibly sleep 8 person's in comfortable surroundings brilliant! I love seeing well-maintained boats, and this one is one of the best that I have ever seen! A credit to it's owner who is probably a seasoned skipper who looks after his home from home.
Another stunning craft no way would you think she was 2005. I think sometimes the gloss wood doesn't work but for my money it certainly does on this one. Some serious social space on her as well,great for entertaining. Yet another one to put on my Lotto list. Great tour as always nick thanks for sharing.
Another great video tour Nick. I do really like the little utlility space, in some ways i am a surprised we do not see it in modern vessels, but i guess it is to give more space to the cabins.
I love those little spaces like the utility room in boats like this. Crew cabins on the smaller ships are another thing I like looking at too. Couldn't tell you why though.
oh wow ,thats a beauty,very well thought out all quality hardware and attention to the details so perfect layout one i,d be happy to spend a couple of months at a time on .
As soon as you entered the interior, it had a super yacht vibe. For a 58 Fly that's amazing. That utility space, and ironing board is very intelligent design. Internal stairway is a cool touch. The dining area, lounge and helm area are like separate little areas in the same space. Side access is cool also. Bose sound is quality. The build quality and woodwork like like a 2019 80ft mini trid deck vibe. Lovely 3 cabin layout. Be a nice yacht for you Nick. Nice wide deck space. Flybridge is well designed. I was thinking how would the internal access work. It does take much space up, being forward of the upper helm. Its a huge amount of detail for a 58ft Fly. 2005 should revisit some 2020 yachts. Crew cabin also is a surprisingly big space. Its a shame the super yacht world, mostly want to buy new, bigger and better. But when a beautiful yacht comes this much - for so little. Its definitely worth going older. Like that Guy Couch with the lift. A huge sub 3 million Superyacht tri deck. But then if you had millions, I suppose most want 'image image image', rather than a 'bargain basement beauty'. Gives mere mortals a chance to enter the super yacht world. So I wouldn't moan at a beautiful older yacht if I won a medium lottery jackpot.
Lovely boats, the 58's, we also had the earlier 55 and prior to that the 50 too, the Princess 56 was very similar with a utility room and ironing board, just for interest, the 58 could have a berth and head in the utility too.A real blast from the past, thank you for the tour.
To the price and what you get ratio I think this is one of the best boats I’ve ever seen.
Your right dude ! I L❤VE this boat.
ido kraus dadon you absolutely right this is what I was thinking
Only if the engines are in good shape !
@@ioanpena why shulden they be in good shape
Every thing els is
A Lot of bang for your buck . very nice and you can tell Nick was not rushed as he opened lots of cupboards.
I’d love this boat. You would not think it was 15 years old. I’m not too sure how well the inclusion of a brig with ironing board would be received in certain quarters though. :)
They've got something to do whilst your Captaining/Piloting! 😁 😁😁😁😁😁
Id be concerned about getting whacked with a hot iron
I have no idea why they put an ironing board in the "cocaine pantry".
Make it a Miele roller iron and it will be ok 😂
If you’re going to buy a used boat, buy one from an owner like this one had.
Boat maintenance is an endless, expensive task - but it doesn’t half show when it is done by someone who loves the boat with a passion.
She is a stunner. Hardly looks one day old let alone some 15 years.
What a spectacularly well appointed and finished Yacht. Clearly the owner has taken such good care and attention to detail to a whole other level. You are correct, I have never seen a hidden laundry room on a boat before. The level of build detail is outstanding. Thanks for the tour of such an impressive yacht.
My pleasure!
I must say, I love these “smaller” yachts that someone could actually afford. Beautiful!
That utility room is very impressive!
Kids would love this “secret” room
Ok Dirk, but I hope you realize the room is not a cellar in Austria.
You said it feels like a super yacht and it definitely does (even if it is sub 60ft). Great tour Nick!
Thanks!
Very nice boat and detailed equipment. I just would take out the inner staircase that goes to the flybridge, it’s useless. Thanks Nick 😊
I'm loving these 'more affordable' reviews. 👍🏻👍🏻
Glad you like them!
Not a sharp angle in sight, everything rounded off or curved including the cockpit door which I don't think I've seen before. A lot of boat for the price of a house, stunning. Thanks for the tour Nick 👍😎
Thanks for watching!
Again wonderful Boat thank you very much Nick your attention to details and your explanation and practicality on the boat and the running of it and looking in every nook and cranny that's fantastic your reviews are most welcoming...👍🏿😊
What a great boat,high spec finish,fabulous little extras throughout,very sleek and roomy and great vfm...
This has to be the best value for money boat you've ever toured. The laundry room is fantastic, a secret hide away. This is a liveable boat, a goldilocks boat, not too big, not too small, just right. It's goldilocks all round, almost everything is just right.
Excellent tour as per usual, editing magic and cameo from Maggie, pure gold.
Take care of yourself and stay safe.

This is absolutely what I’m looking for! Perfect price, perfect size and perfect spec! Great boat all round and brilliant tour as always! I love Fridays at Midday! Have a great weekend

What a great boat! Sleeps 6 crew of 2, separate laundry room, sub 60’ and £359K? Now all I need to do is convince the Mrs that this is the own. Fingers crossed. Bravo!
I was NOT expecting that utility room! What a great usable space!
Great tour as always Nick, many thanks!
My pleasure!
You could also use this room as a pantry for the kitchen.
Actually some 58 like this one do have here another crew/extra cabin with a small sink and toilet
That storage area accessible from the galley is a stroke of genius! A feature every vessel needs. Storage is the biggest issue on any vessel you will be staying aboard for any length of time. The ironing board is brilliant! There are always a few items that look much better with a quick pressing after a wash. This truly is a small luxury yacht worthy of the name.
That’s the nicest looking boat I’ve seen you review. Whoever had it built has really, really good taste. What a beauty.

Most boats of a given size are all very similarly configured. Thats what makes this my favorite, its not “cookie cutter” designing. Its a shame more manufacturers don’t try different designs.
Another great video, not only with the wave but now bringing magic into them. Looks a lovely boat.
Fairline is a absolut blast,...real good quality especially the older ones. I had a 2007 Phantom 40 Fly for many years moored in mallorca. just sold it this week !!! sad but true...
What engine(s) did you have, and what was the range like at lower speeds? 300 miles blasting around the bay is fine for a day out, but if you are making a longer passage that could get expensive real quick. Thanks.
How much did it cost to keep it there?
Well it's taken a year of being subscribed to your channel Nick and finally, I have found the boat that is exactly for me... I didn't have my hearing aids in at the time as I had just showered and was drying up with a towel over my head, and so the visual imagery of the lounge and kitchen without audio etc and that was enough for me...

Great choice! 🙂
Lovely boat incredible condition and nearly affordable just need £358,000. Simple. Again great work Nick keep finding these marvellous boats so we all can dream one day.
I would buy this boat, solely for the hidden room in the galley. Great tour as always!
Good panic room, mind you so is the crew berth with the upper swab in place.
Another awesome video Nick. You are killing it. I love seeing you waving at the mirror and your Douchebag. These two thungs are becoming a classic !!!
Thank you for allowing me to have 10-20 minutes of fun and relax while watching your videos
Thanks for watching!
Hi Nick, now I’ve watched just about every boat tour you have done right back to the early days !
That is by far the best boat I have seen ! Very unique lay out, completely broke the mould with that one ! Tribute to its owner too 👌🏼. Beauty !
This is a sweet setup on this boat and really nice price...that glossy wood throughout is very nice...great use of space and storage...thanks nick
Always loved the 2008 squadron 55 tour you did a few years ago, this one is just a bit better especially with them unique features. Impressive.
Again, another great video on a very reasonably priced alternative for those of us who don’t have the means to buy a new yacht. Love it! One of the best ones so far! Thank you dear sir!
My pleasure!
What a fantastic interior! I love the woodwork and especially the way everything has curves and is laid out at different elevations. Even the stairs inside to the flybridge are beautifully architected.
This is one of the nicest yacht layouts you have shown, loving it Nick.
Never a video without the legendary wave
This boat looks like the perfect liveaboard for a couple as it has so many areas to get on with your separate activities. She also looks well built to withstand the test of time. Very getattable boat for the majority Nick! lol
What a superb boat, wonderful layout, superbly looked after, what a gem. Thanks to both you Nick and the generous owner for letting us view this beauty.
Glad you enjoyed it
I told my wife I was buying her an ironing board. Whoda thunk she wouldn't take it so well.. Exquisite yacht!
Are we understand correctly, you buying your wonderful wife a, may I add a 2nd hand ironing board, failed to tell her it was attached to a Fairline Squadron 58. Priceless...
Excellent tour as always. I loved the magical slippers and the Dickensian place to "store" the crew. Cheers
This is honestly a brilliant layout. Fantastic way to try and bring the yacht feel to a much smaller boat which they maxed out wonderfully. The price is outstanding too. Fantastic peice of kit. For sure will sell quickly. The galley is incredible
You can’t imagine how much I look forward to your new videos. For me they’re like therapy. I can forget all the craziness in the world for 10-15 minutes and fantasise about a more relaxing life on the ocean wave 🌊
This has to be one of my favorite “older” boats. So clean and gorgeous. I also love the little hideaway in the galley. As always, great vid nick!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
That is an amazing amount of boat for the money! I love the way the galley is part of the saloon/dinette, but also tucked away a bit, just right. The utility room is a much better use of space (to my mind) than having a vast, full beam master cabin which is mainly wasted space. That forward master cabin is more than big enough, again IMO.

Whilst I thoroughly enjoy the wave from you, this should have been a royal wave! What a stunning craft.
"Fastidious" was the word u wanted Nick. 😉
That's the word that came to my mind as well.
I said it to the phone but Nick still didn't hear it.
Can't even spell it
I'm
Dislecklich

You're very kind, thank you.
For the money perhaps the nicest boat I have seen you review. Very, very nice for £350k.
I loved the layout. Totaly unique. Fantastic woodwork. Alot of boat for its price. Very worth it.
Thankyou
That is a gorgeous boat and great use of space aboard. It would be great if it was just the boat to buy but with marina costs, servicing and fuel for two big engines, insurance and all other bits and bobs, I'm guessing a bit but it must be 20-30 k a year to run, so I think a very wealthy person who has some loose change to run her. Still I'll keep doing the lottery
Nice berth in a good location will be £8-10k. At least the same again running costs so yeah £20k as a base line.
Sounds about right.
I would normally go with setting aside 2 to 3 times the original purchase price (including options and PWCs) as an operational buffer for any boat.
Honestly, one of the best and most practical layout I have ever seen on a yacht of this length. Fairline needs to bring back this layout.
Really nice boat Nick. I think one of my favourites. Great tour again also. Thanks
This is hands down my favorite channel on youtube. Keep up the good work and you're going places.
Thank you!
Hi Nick. This yacht is awesome. This is what a yacht with lots of style looks like. Hard to tell its not new because of the new headliners and all the other additions to the original. Worth every penny. A stunning boat.
It's Friday Fantastic day with Lord Nickquaholic! Fantastic boat that was, with respectable crew accommodation and underground storage with no loss to anywhere else on the boat fantastic. Cheered me up no end. Thankyou so much, brilliant.
Glad you enjoyed it!
HA!! I guessed right! I saw it, and when Nick said, "Can you guess?" I thought "Ironing board?" (Made sense, since the washer/dryer were there). And, I'm really impressed with this boat; I love the layout, and the "hidden" compartment off the kitchen was just awesome, a fantastic use of space. As always, great tour, thank you very much!!
Thanks for watching!
3:27 very impressed by this secret storage room! Also, I was very surprised when I found out the price! This should cost at least 2.2 million.
Wow! I know I've said this on a couple of the tours, but this is a crazy amount of boat for that kind of money. 58' is a great size for anyone who isn't dead set on a crew and besides the gloss wood everywhere I'd be easily fooled into believing this is much less than 15 years old!
Love these kinds of reviews, I love ogling at the latest and greatest mega yachts and if I could afford a Nordhavn I'd likely be declared missing after the first year away, but I absolutely love these little gems that most of us wouldn't even notice sitting in the marina. Great work as always Nick!
Classic yacht interior, appears to be well maintained. Great tour thanks Nick.
i like these older yacht tours better than the newer yachts , really shows which manufacturer in terms of styling & layout holds up over time ... also a vast more people will be in the market for a used older yacht in the $300k - $700k range than a brand new one that's well over 1 million
---- great vid!
Love these older boat reviews. So much bang for the buck
She is beautiful!! ❤️❤️❤️
Good job putting that utility room between the cabins and the engine bay! This is so that you can stuff it with enough goodies to make it serve also as soundproofing.
Speaking of engine rooms, that is so immaculately maintained that it looks like she had just left the factory only yesterday.
For a 15 year old boat this is well spec'ed and designed. Also aged well - love how they have separated the galley from the lounge and dinning area. Feels like a boat you could have extended stays on. Very nice.
Absolutely fantastic boat! This is one of my all time favorites! The layout is incredible.
Glad you like it!
As a boatmaniac I’m addicted to your videos Nick, best boat reviews on the net, period.
Great work.
You must show us an Outer Reef Trident!
550 or 620 doesn’t matter. ;-)
This is the best yacht I have seen so far. Stunning!!
who would've thought that indoor flybridge access stairs could look so stylish? ;) Kind of tied the room together, like a sculpture!
Something about these 2000s boats are so warm and inviting. The high gloss (cherry?) woods, the curves, the lighting....I like the styling of the boats now too, but you see a lot of sharp lines now and more "muted" colors.
That utility room is a nice touch! It does take some space away from other areas, but who wouldn't want more space to work with in a galley that size (not to mention, a whole 'nother fridge). It's like having that cellar/pantry from the kitchen you see in a lot of old houses :)
I love the way you wave when you see yourself into the mirror. Keep filming, awesome channel.
Thank you! Will do!
All of the newer boats you show have become slightly samey. I love seeing different layouts like this, it's ingenious
Quite good value for money here, and an excellent example of why you might prefer a used boat. I love that utility room and it’s location. There are, of course, some dated details that you’d want to address, but nothing that it desperately needs. Nice boat. Oh, and I love the layout of that flybridge, one of the nicest I’ve seen. And as always, an excellent Aquaholic Tour!
Definitely seems like excellent value for the real estate you get. Great boat this one!!
Ironing board. Very slick. I love the wood grains and finish. EDIT: Proper 2 man helm is a plus.
This might be my favourite yacht of them all. Feels like a cozy house on the water.
A sub 60ft boat that can possibly sleep 8 person's in comfortable surroundings brilliant! I love seeing well-maintained boats, and this one is one of the best that I have ever seen! A credit to it's owner who is probably a seasoned skipper who looks after his home from home.
I’ve tried watching other boat reviews but know one does it better . Great job 👍
Thanks 👍
This is a beautiful boat, well priced and updated. Great for a family of 4 or 5. This one has aged well. Good find Nick!!!!
Another stunning craft no way would you think she was 2005. I think sometimes the gloss wood doesn't work but for my money it certainly does on this one.
Some serious social space on her as well,great for entertaining. Yet another one to put on my Lotto list.
Great tour as always nick thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
You’ve had newer, bigger and sleeker but this is one of the nicest I’ve seen on your channel.
Love the galley slightly sunken off the living area - not in the way and still part of the room. What great condition it's in!
Another great video tour Nick.
I do really like the little utlility space, in some ways i am a surprised we do not see it in modern vessels, but i guess it is to give more space to the cabins.
Love it, so much beauty, space and imagination for a boat.
Love love love the galley and the fact there's a crew cabin. Awesome yacht. I'd love to own it it would make a great home.
Amazing boat and love the secret compartment in the kitchen, very cool! Thoroughly enjoyable tour as always. Thanks NIck 👍
My pleasure!
great video and a very good tour of this great boat, a lot of boat for the money and very well looked after, would not think it's 15 years old
That is a cool utility room! I like the way it's hidden. Love that sofa in the salon!
Fantastic she's my favourite so far. Stunning.
What a meticulously maintained boat. I think it’s aged very well. Gotta love the charm of the slightly older boats.
I love those little spaces like the utility room in boats like this. Crew cabins on the smaller ships are another thing I like looking at too. Couldn't tell you why though.
I know why I do. So if I'm WANTING (needing?) to bring maybe a captain and a chef on a longer trip... I could.
I love your tours Nick!
What a great boat for the money. Will look more into Fairline Nick. Many thanks.
oh wow ,thats a beauty,very well thought out all quality hardware and attention to the details so perfect layout one i,d be happy to spend a couple of months at a time on .
As soon as you entered the interior, it had a super yacht vibe. For a 58 Fly that's amazing. That utility space, and ironing board is very intelligent design. Internal stairway is a cool touch. The dining area, lounge and helm area are like separate little areas in the same space. Side access is cool also. Bose sound is quality. The build quality and woodwork like like a 2019 80ft mini trid deck vibe. Lovely 3 cabin layout. Be a nice yacht for you Nick. Nice wide deck space. Flybridge is well designed. I was thinking how would the internal access work. It does take much space up, being forward of the upper helm. Its a huge amount of detail for a 58ft Fly. 2005 should revisit some 2020 yachts. Crew cabin also is a surprisingly big space. Its a shame the super yacht world, mostly want to buy new, bigger and better. But when a beautiful yacht comes this much - for so little. Its definitely worth going older. Like that Guy Couch with the lift. A huge sub 3 million Superyacht tri deck. But then if you had millions, I suppose most want 'image image image', rather than a 'bargain basement beauty'. Gives mere mortals a chance to enter the super yacht world. So I wouldn't moan at a beautiful older yacht if I won a medium lottery jackpot.
My dad actually bought the squadron 58 in 2010 and we still have it and it's perfect for the Adriatic sea👌
Lucky
Lovely boats, the 58's, we also had the earlier 55 and prior to that the 50 too, the Princess 56 was very similar with a utility room and ironing board, just for interest, the 58 could have a berth and head in the utility too.A real blast from the past, thank you for the tour.
Thanks for watching! :)
