I love that boat! The video doesn't get old.
Thank you for the very interesting review.
Another great review Toby. Curious though why Solaris fuel tanks are always so small.
They are sailing boats :)
What a nice looking thing. I bet Toby was itching to have a bit of a go on the 110 though :D
Watch this space..>!
@@yachtingworld Look forward to it :D
Thanks Toby.
More of a Hallberg person myself but I guess that I am just old fashioned. There is not much to hang on to or brace against on the helms. Fine in the Med, maybe not so great in the Atlantic. Good video though and with my budget somewhat irrelevant.
How easy is it to change that running rigging is something breaks? Looks like it could be a nightmare.
It looked so awesome outside then you went it and 🤮🗑‼️💯
Great galley, very practical. I throw a traveller in though.
Wow great video Thank You
Sorry, no seat at the helm looks sleek but I would hate it after 5 mins. The whole thing is a bit to minimal. Maybe the price tag reflects that. Why so stingy on the fuel? But her lines are beautiful as well as the paint. Can't really ask for much more under 2M. Time to sail as Capt Tobey. I noticed a little trouble getting in the sail locker. Just kidding I'm sure you sail as a captain anyway.
please review the Solaris 111 CeFea
We have a video on it being edited up, stand by!
Looks good. But it is no Swan or Euphoria, all due respect...
I understand Swans, excellent quality although it comes at a price, but Euphoria? No boat built in Turkey can rival one Italian made. Solaris is a much better builder and they proved it with the 111. Where is Euphoria's innovation?
@@ami6272 I think it is wrong to have such prejudices about the countries. Italy has a lot of crap products, as well as good ones. This also applies to yacht construction (won't name any here, but I think you have an idea). This is the same in Turkey, a rising star in yacht production. There are a lot of top quality yacht producers in Turkey. Euphoria is one of them.
I had heard that the industrial company behind Euphoria used to produce Nautor's Swan and Azimut yachts up until some years ago (if not still). Coincidentally, Euphoria's designer is also German Frers, like Nautor's Swan. You don't think German Frers would want his name on a less than top quality boat. I think people who understand boats, know Euphoria. I've heard if you order now, you have to join a long queue.
@@SA-zv4wr I'm not saying they're crap, just that their appeal is not really quality but more cheaper labor costs. It was not my intent to generalize as I know even Perini has a yard in Turkey, and they launched one of the greatest sailboats of all time, Maltese Falcon.
@@ami6272 All due respect, it is not the case of Euphoria. An Euphoria 54 costs around 700-900 thousand euros bare-boat, without any options and without VAT. It is much more expensive than Beneteau etc crowd. It is cheaper than Nautor's Swan, but quality-wise, I have been told by one owner, it is at least as good as a Nautor's Swan.
@@SA-zv4wr I've only seen adverts for brand new Euphoria 54 for 700k, and Beneteau Oceanis yachts 54 for 700k/750k, both prices in euro. The numbers are there, I think quality is comparable in these two.
A Solaris 50 from 2020, so not brand new, doesn't go below 800k euros. I've not sailed these models but it would be foolish for Solaris to ask so much for their boats if the quality didn't match the price. That's what bothered me so much with the original comment.
Now if Euphoria and Solaris want to gift me their boats I will gladly test it for them and come back with my subjective opinion.
No mainsheet traveler and yet they call it "performance"... what a JOKE!!!
Toby,
I’m hoping you can answer a general question for me.
The original term “head” was because sailors would go to the bow of sailing ships to do their business. Since the bow was down wind, unfavorable scents wouldn’t cross the ship.
Why do Brits ad an “s” to head and make it seem plural, when it is clearly singular on a modern boat.
No offense or slight intended, just want to know.
why would anyone dislike this
.....any hand holds on deck or below?
🤷♂️
Keep your left with the right one
You are not supposed to move on fore deck while sailing.
@@hurri7720 Interesting observation. I guess you have never had to drop a storm jib in 60 knots on a still falling barometer to lie a hull, or had to put a pole out to run with a bag or wing and wing, or had to unjam a roller furler in 40 knots which won't furl, or had to manage ground tackle in an gale at an anchorage where the angle of heel is extreme, and even in nice weather, I guess you just let the flying fish rot on the deck and create a rustic ambiance in the cockpit where you hide safely, Fool.
@@paulvr3158 I have sailed all life including from Finland to Cape Town on a 72 footer.
(1963). I would never by one without a deck house and inner steering although I have never saild on one. And PS I have never had furling jib or main.
I think it can’t touch the Oyster or Swan.
do love you but where is the pen taping host now ? he was a no frills straight up chap lots of sailing stats!
Looks a boat more suited to being tied up at the Yacht Club de Monaco while having pink gins on the quarterdeck at sunset.
You couldn't be further from the truth. Incredibly well handling and fast.
A nice weather day sailor with a active marina life.
Very nice boat for the Med etc. I'd probably like to see a pocket door on the Master cabin with a bed that can slid across to give manoeuvre room on both sides of it! A lot of ballast too, so maybe just fit it out with more luxury or a stronger hull or something to balance the need for ballast!
Why does it need more ballast?
Dude gotta go external mic or at least a different handheld mount, so much noise coming from the camera rattling.
Sorry, agreed and identified the problem (gopro proprietary mount)
Anyone else that wants to see something about the Rapido 60 and/or the Bañuls 53 tri?
This is totally fascinating boat. Unfortunatela only theoretically because I can't handle it single handed
Buy the crew cabined version and save up lots of money! Either to pay the skipper you'd hire or the wife you find with all her clothes she'll never wear!
Why not.
Why not? Any experienced sailor could sail her single handed….
Para mares bravos (Atlántico) es inservible ,NO VALE PARA cuando la cosas se ponen feas ,eso si para pasear o lucirte es muy bonito para lo demas es una mierda , en definitiva un velero de juguete para niños
Porqué lo dices?
It's far from elegant, more like Neo Ugly, just saying you know. And as for flush hidden design etc, it's like the modern craze for designing mobile phones like bars of soap that require the user to wear rubber gloves so one can hold the bloody thing! The sail locker resembles the saloon in my 33 footer, but no gallery, where do the people eat that put the sails away? Come on the deserve some comfort surely.
Maybe my feedback will change the design of future models.
Buy an Amel then. Just like with phones you have plenty of option if you don't like the current mainstream...
Imo 1 hull sailboats are not worth buying, they just don’t go fast enough, catamarans blow past them with ease. Do you want to go 9 knots or 20 knots ? The answer is simple.
Cats are too expensive for comparable space, and the hulls are too claustrophobic.
@@eliasghosn6754 ppl that own boats are rich!
All of this is rich people business indeed but cata space is kinda bland, hyper premium footage and simply not enough space (regardless of price point).
@@abhishekparmar6702 true, however I disagree, cats imo are better laid (and offer more storage-walk around space) out than 1 hulls.
This is probably endless debate but I'll ask you to give monohulls a fair shot. Just genuinely take interest in them, you'll be surprised, i promise.
