Can someone share with me why I pay for TH-cam Premium NOT to have to watch ads, only to have videos like this have an ad in them? Who should I sue for breach of agreement. Any lawyers please share your feedback!
Can’t believe I’ve been watching you for 4 years. My son was living in Venice/Santa Monica area when I started watching your show. Can’t wait to see you on your new boat.
What’s surprising is the amount of room inside the boat it’s deceptive from the outside.. oh and I love the sound of the Mosquito ‘mash’ in the cockpit….😅
Over 14 foot beam explains the spaciousness a lot? …my old woodie has a typical 11 foot beam on similar length, even tapering down to 7ft at the stern…and is unbelievably pokey by comparison!😊
I love the fact that you guys brought back the theme music for the beginning of the video!! I miss seeing the introduction with the cool music! This yacht has a great set up and design! For a 2007 model it looks brand new. Whoever purchases this yacht will definitely be impressed and be getting a great deal! How could you go wrong?
Seeing that the owner locked the shower up on the back. Not owning a boat. Is theft and abuse of boats a big thing? Could you do a video on security of boats, both small and large? I heard that boats over 100ft have to be permanently manned. Is that correct?
I've never heard of the permanent manning for vessels over 100 feet. I've also never had any issues with scoundrels. Just take normal precautions like you would do anywhere, but, yes, it can be an issue depending on the dock situation, port, etc.
A boat security video would still be great. What typical precautions do you take? What options are there for remote monitoring? That sort of thing would be informative.
I am a Beam Dream girl too! It works! It is my night time treat, and the flavors are so yummy. I am starting the Beam Greens. It is my morning shake. It gives me all the vitamins you need for the day. I absolutely love Beam!
In 2005 I bought a Meridian 408MY. I owned boats before and after (we kept the 408 for 8 years) and it is still my favorite boat. Way ahead of their time for space and styling (personal preference - I get it), but the amount of space for a 40 footer was incomparable. I kept mine in freshwater so not sure how well they hold up in saltwater, but for affordable live aboard space you can’t beat it. Thanks for bringing me down memory lane - yours as well. Best, Jim
At 1st glance you wonder why so many levels and steps. Then you realize it gives you separate cozy areas to get away from other guests. I actually like the terraced design.
I wish you guys would at least mention the trend in marinas to not allow live aboards any more. I had friends who spent months looking for a marina that allowed it. Might be a Florida thing.
I mean, it's no Ocean King Doge 400 (inside joke for those that follow other yachting channels) but this is a very nice yacht. I need a place to live, but I can't afford this. I can barely a afford a mobile home, so that is a dream not worth chasing right now. This would make a perfect starter yacht for a couple or a single parent. All that you need to think about is how often you would visit the Bahamas because if I had this, I'd be living there 9 months of the year.
For sleep, have you ever tried thought stopping? It is a practice of consistently working on stopping or changing your thoughts until you get good at it. It takes effort, but it pays off. I've struggled with the same thing.
Rico looked like he had a flashback to your old live aboard when he opened the engine access, doing the live aboard maybe show the upkeep like dumping the gray water, etc. the hidden shore water and power under is fantastic more builders should do that !!!
Gorgeous. Really nice, and interior complimented by the motorcycle interest, Hunter.S. Thompson and creativity. The owner is clearly a person of impeccable taste
Boats like RVs need extra additions to gray water and black water tanks. Lots of RV info on yt what to add to a holding tanks to eliminate the "poo pyramid" and smells. In general its a mixture of dawn dish soap and borax in the tanks to keep everything in liquid state and easy to pump out or drain.
1 hour timer destroyer risk order. The navy at at sea that was the best sleep i've ever had. With the ship gently rocking back-and-forth back and forth back-and-forth. Man ..
Im a full displacement expedition yacht fan but absolutely love this as an affordable live aboard, the salon is beautiful great galley awesome bedrooms fantastic fly bridge and excellent storage, definitely worth every cent
Another beautifully shot video of a beautiful live aboard. You guys are making it very hard for me not to move to Florida and buy a boat to live on. Stay safe.
You guys have been on a great adventure these past years. Thanks for taking us along. My GF and I have decided our next adventure... children. I am nervous.
@@Navy1977 It's a 2006. We don't plan on living aboard right away, but we intend to do the Great Loop on it in a few years. We are new boaters (with some recent training) and will spend the next couple of years, at least, learning how to operate and maintain the boat properly before embarking on the big trip.
Great job, as always. Thanks for continuing to bring us great content. I was trying to remember the boat this reminds me of. At first I thought, VZ 56 fly but, I can see the difference in size and quality. Great boat though. Better filming day though. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for showing us once again a Lovely boat, just a little downside would be for me the lack of extraction fan above the stove…. With a plastic enclosed boat you might have a Lovely sauna after cooking pastas 😂. Have a great day and thx again
Another great tour, you guys. Beautiful yacht through and through. Sorry to hear about the sleep issues you were having, Victoria. But I'm glad you got it resolved with that wonderful product you mentioned. I'm going to have to check it out. Getting good sleep is so important for good overall health. You look great, as always.🙂
Love the stylized compass rose in the salon table. I know this boat is great value for the money. If only there was space for staff to sleep in, it would be perfect.
Definitely a beautiful yacht to live on, I could happily live on here for ever. Loads of space and different areas to relax in. Great tour thank you both. xx
Thanks for the walk through of a VERY clean 459. I look forward to the final walk through of you Bering. I'll have to check out the Beam Dream. My wife is a terrible sleeper and has tried EVERYTHING. So glad you're getting the rest you need to provide us with more yacht tours. :)
That one would work for me. Nice layout and features . My wife is a non water person, a deal breaker, at present. 😏 I need her along . I did enjoy the tour….Thanks guys 😊👍
Wow, the aft owner's suite, with direct access to the sea... the best😍🤩. makes you feel like you are in a superyacht. Having no internal helm in the saloon was a great idea, 'cause it's not like you gonna do some Atlantic crossing. Really a perfect boat for live aboard. 👍👍
I'm fr9m south west Florida, every boat can become a home with a scenic view from deep in the everglades, high up in a tree or half way down fort myers Beach main road.
Excellent Yacht I really like the lay out and how clean the whole boat is. This is a boat I could see myself living on, plus doing the great loop depending on the air draft.
This is practically perfect for me, and I want it. The only lack I'd feel would be the oven, but as you point out that's easily remedied. I actually think I'd want to replace the microwave with a combination convection/microwave. Breville is one brand, but there are others too.
Hmm, that was odd... immediately when you entered the master, I looked for the doggie bed (as you used to have). Anything pet-related seems to stick in my mind regardless of the subject at hand :) And of course I couldn't wait to see if it was a Norcold fridge LOL
Seems like buyers need to have a mission for the boat they are looking for first, then they need to have a place to park it. I am interested in a live aboard that is capable of doing the great loop one day in the future. So length and height is a factor and twin diesels that sip fuel. Does not have to be fast not trying to go anywhere fast. As far as marinas or docks, a lots of FL docks are wiped off by Helene and Milton soon after. Perhaps you can add content on ongoing rent, maintenance and other boat expenses, goes way beyond the purchase price. Can you start bird dogging the available docks and prices in 2024 as other posters say it has doubled or tripled in their markets in FL. Your subs should have a place to park a boat before buying it not other way around. Are dock rentals better in other States than FL?
I've a fan of your vids for about a year or two, and I have to say that even as a huge fan of cats I love this boat. It's roomy, bright and look very comfy, I'd buy this boat without hesitation. 💕 P.S. Victoria I work the overnights and have trouble sleeping too, so thank you for sharing your beam find. My numbers run mid 60s to low 70s, hope it works for me too.
Wow!!! I can’t believe you guys played my favorite intro soundtrack! I bought it a couple of months ago because I missed it so much.✌️😂👍 Ok now I can finish the rest of the video!😏👀
The affordable live abloards are my favorite, not that im gonna buy one but, they ain't millions and millons, therefore on another planet. Mind you I do like watching some of the inovative ideas, which will trickle down to many things in the future. When Rico says "The healm is waterproof and has drainage", how the do you manage with all the electronics, are we just talking farin shower proof or full blown down pours?
Victoria, I discovered a natural sleep aid completely by accident. As a resident of the Mid-Atlantic I became a big fan of Dogfish Head ales. Especially the 60 Minute IPA. On occasion I would pick up a 4 pack of the 90 Minute IPA. It's a rich, heavily hopped IPA. Much more than the 60 Minute. The trouble was nearly every time I popped one I'd wake up hours later to a warm, half empty bottle. I assumed that it was the stronger alcohol level that was putting me out. What didn't make sense was that even though it was strong for a beer it didn't have as much alcohol as a couple glasses of wine or a few shots of whiskey, which never put me out. On a visit to the brewery I was explaining this to one of the staff. Their response was a complete surprise. Apparently hops can be sleep inducing for many people. So, it isn't the alcohol that was putting me out but the fact that the 90 Minute is a very hoppy brew. If you're somewhere without your Beam Dream you may want to try a hoppy IPA.
@@NautiStyles Ales and lagers can also cause drowsiness due to their high hops content(some craft gin and whiskey distillers also use hops but they are rare). On a side note, please be careful when traveling with Beam dream as it contains CBD in the form of Nano Hemp and some countries really don't like Hemp products in any of its CBD form factors.
Thanks guys (styles?) I enjoyed you both reminiscing about the past, it was quite cute (And we all seem to do it.) It is a beautifully maintained boat! Love your work!
Lot of boat/features for the size and price, can see why you enjoyed your Meridian. Great tour Victoria and Rico. Going to check out the Beam products, hot chocolate lover here.
This is a stunning boat, I have been thinking a lot about boats and I have come to the conclusion that for two people you don't really want anything over 47ft 50ft max. This is such a stunning boat, two cabins loads of space and yet manageable, for two people.
Great points!! Everyone I know has downsized their yacht. They want to be able to get in and out of places easier, ie shallower draft and they're at the point of not wanting to deal with crew anymore. I think the mantra should be to buy the smallest yacht you'll be comfortable with.
gotta love the enginges...cummins 5.9s are great fuel sippers, great living space and well kept, i just hate the front heavy yacht look of those and some carvers...they have this illusion of being overloaded with weight in the bow! not great for seakeeping abilities, btw for those who wondering about engine hours and wear and tear, this has 1400 hours on the 5.9s...there is a selene fs right now that has twin 5.9s....its listed as having over 7000 hours on them...so well kept 1400hrs is just broken in!
My guess is this boat wont be for sale very long. It looks so well maintained and with the tastefull updates it delivers great value. No wonder this model were your first choice
Really beautiful Yacht. Victoria I'm surprised you forgot to show stuff and Rico had to remind you hmmm lol. I think a fantastic boat for the Caribbean , Med, Adriatic, ect. I wouldn't operate across the Ocean's, but instead have the yacht ferried across. I would however in that huge storage area under the stairs put washer drier combo, but also a small freezer unit. The care of the interior was awesome. I don't think I'd have gone with the white color fabric on the upholstery or carpet as would definitely get stained and dirty fast. So I'd give it a 8.5/10 score.
i love you two completely, on this video when Victoria lifted up the mat in the galley you can see how it was not completely redone. It is a great boat by all means but, in my thoughts, that is just a i hope someone does not see that
Pretty little yacht n great presentation as usual. Wondering if u two could d9 a garc8a sailb9at, I want ur opinion n going by a explorer sailb9at tyvm❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
so i had a brilliant thought just now.... what if you could incorporate Laser projectors with the screens that pop up or down. imagine the space saving That could accomplish, and also how Huge the screens could be once fully unfurled? could be way better than the regular screen TVs or Monitors, for certain uses. then keep the normal screen monitor/TVs for the important monitoring work, and as such they cna be a little smaller, or placed strategically to be visible, but not obtrusive. while the more entertainment screens could be useful but way larger but able to eb hidden away in a compact space.
Thanks. So where is Natistyles located now? CA or FL or elsewhere? It is now late 2024 large boat market seems to be falling in more than one sub markets. What are you seeing in your local area? Seems like a lot of boomers are trying to sell off their boats, tired of dock, maintenance and insurance expenses. Especially if they are not using their boats. What have you seen last few months of 2024?

I think that may be the best design for shore cables I've ever seen ❤
@wstlndiesel Don't you think you are overreacting a little? not interesting, just skip... no big deal 🤷♀️
@@wstlndieselYour argument and underlying assumptions are materially deficient. Case dismissed with prejudice. ⚖️
Bean is great but where can I get that ring?
Can’t believe I’ve been watching you for 4 years.

Awww thank you so much for sticking with us - we appreciate you Kurt 💙

A stress free life with great sleep is at the top of my bucket list. 😴💤
That’s a good item to have on top. What else is on your list?
@@NautiStylesShhh...the other items aren't for public disclosure. 🤫🤫?😉😁🤣😜?
I usually like seeing the 70s or bigger boats, but this little one is put together really nice

Depends on the marina you use. If you’re on private land it’s never been a worry or a problem.
Good morning Victoria and Rico, hope you have a beautiful morning and a great day.
Wishing you the same - happy to have you back!

Yes, me too
So nostalgic watching your tour this week. I’ve been watching since you lived on your Meridian. What a great live aboard!
It sure is - thank you for returning every week - we appreciate you 💙
A very very nice live aboard. This is exactly the boat you had. Plus the cockpit. Similar to the Defever 44. And the Defever 44+5...
👌🏼
I wish you guys would at least mention the trend in marinas to not allow live aboards any more. I had friends who spent months looking for a marina that allowed it. Might be a Florida thing.
Same!
Lovely to c these affordable boats aswell. Thank you both 😊
Our pleasure! 💙
Most definitely I would live aboard that boat! Beautiful! Love the owner's suite, even with the funky split head! Thanks for the lovely tour!
Thank you so much for watching
I REALLY like her! She’s perfect for my single lifestyle. I’m sure she’s gone by the time of this video but I would do a tour to buy her. Thanks guys!
Go check it out - she might still be there! Let us know 😉
Still available!! A single lady who lives on a yacht...🤔😉🤗🥰
It is still available!
I mean, it's no Ocean King Doge 400 (inside joke for those that follow other yachting channels) but this is a very nice yacht. I need a place to live, but I can't afford this. I can barely a afford a mobile home, so that is a dream not worth chasing right now. This would make a perfect starter yacht for a couple or a single parent. All that you need to think about is how often you would visit the Bahamas because if I had this, I'd be living there 9 months of the year.
Hi Clif - welcome back! Happy to have you here!

Most definitely!!
Hello Victoria. I have been following You for four years !! Wow din't realize was so long... ! Thank You for these amazing years !
Thank you for your continuous support!! 🙏🏼 ⚓️ ❤️ #StayNauti
Gorgeous. Really nice, and interior complimented by the motorcycle interest, Hunter.S. Thompson and creativity. The owner is clearly a person of impeccable taste
Glad you enjoyed it!
I remember watching a video of Rico changing out a pump on your old boat and you had your little doggies.
Time flies... Stay safe and God Bless.
😢 ❤️ 🐶
@NautiStyles thank you for all your support! 🙏🏼 ⚓️ ❤️
Boats like RVs need extra additions to gray water and black water tanks. Lots of RV info on yt what to add to a holding tanks to eliminate the "poo pyramid" and smells. In general its a mixture of dawn dish soap and borax in the tanks to keep everything in liquid state and easy to pump out or drain.
1 hour timer destroyer risk order. The navy at at sea that was the best sleep i've ever had. With the ship gently rocking back-and-forth back and forth back-and-forth.

Thanks guys (styles?) I enjoyed you both reminiscing about the past, it was quite cute (And we all seem to do it.) It is a beautifully maintained boat! Love your work!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very beautiful and well kept yacht.
Thank you Alan
Lot of boat/features for the size and price, can see why you enjoyed your Meridian. Great tour Victoria and Rico. Going to check out the Beam products, hot chocolate lover here.
Awww happy to hear
This is a stunning boat, I have been thinking a lot about boats and I have come to the conclusion that for two people you don't really want anything over 47ft 50ft max. This is such a stunning boat, two cabins loads of space and yet manageable, for two people.
Exactly! Thanks for sharing! 🙏🏼 ⚓️
Great points!! Everyone I know has downsized their yacht. They want to be able to get in and out of places easier, ie shallower draft and they're at the point of not wanting to deal with crew anymore. I think the mantra should be to buy the smallest yacht you'll be comfortable with.
This is really a great first time boat, or a retirement boat? Travel with it, spend an awesome 10-15 years traveling around, maybe the great loop?
Sounds like a great time!
I really like that. Well designed and good use of space. You can get at all the engineering spaces pretty well too.
Glad you like it!
Im broke, but thats the sort of boat id actually buy@NautiStyles
i take a bag of stripes today
biiiiiig stripes
cheers to my favorite floating couple
Awww - we love you
gotta love the enginges...cummins 5.9s are great fuel sippers, great living space and well kept, i just hate the front heavy yacht look of those and some carvers...they have this illusion of being overloaded with weight in the bow! not great for seakeeping abilities, btw for those who wondering about engine hours and wear and tear, this has 1400 hours on the 5.9s...there is a selene fs right now that has twin 5.9s....its listed as having over 7000 hours on them...so well kept 1400hrs is just broken in!
Thank you for sharing your opinion
It’s a great adventure, this boat is a little comfortable and a little economical. 👍🏽
Thanks Lionel
1:15 -- Your dreams have really expanded in the years since!
Sure has!! ❤️ 🙏🏼 ⚓️
Fun tour!
thanks David
At first I thought the black door on the right behind the small sink in the upper cockpit was a microwave.🤣
🤪
What was your second thought?
My guess is this boat wont be for sale very long. It looks so well maintained and with the tastefull updates it delivers great value. No wonder this model were your first choice
For sure! Thanks for sharing!
BOAT! Be well you two! :) Duke, Still Kick'n (a good name for an old guy's boat!) :)
Thank you Duke - as always we are happy to have you here with us today!
Great episode! Thanks for sharing! 👍👍
Welcome back! Enjoy your weekend!
@@NautiStyles same to you guys too!👍👍
Another awesome vid! Beautiful boat,lovely lady
Really beautiful Yacht. Victoria I'm surprised you forgot to show stuff and Rico had to remind you hmmm lol. I think a fantastic boat for the Caribbean , Med, Adriatic, ect. I wouldn't operate across the Ocean's, but instead have the yacht ferried across. I would however in that huge storage area under the stairs put washer drier combo, but also a small freezer unit. The care of the interior was awesome. I don't think I'd have gone with the white color fabric on the upholstery or carpet as would definitely get stained and dirty fast. So I'd give it a 8.5/10 score.
Thanks for sharing!
Nice tour, if a bit nostalgic. Deja Vu! Victoria, you described my wife's sleeping problems perfectly - I think I'll give your solution a try for her.
Thank you! Beam sleep has been doing wonders for us!! 🙏🏼 😴
Try a grounding sheet! It helps me sleep better.
Thanks for sharing 👌🏼🙏
Sorry, completely random but I Love your earrings in the mid section of the video!
Ordered Bean Dream, thank you. Who made your ring?
thanks for letting us know
I will definitely try the product you say works
Thank you Bryce 🙏
Could you discuss expenses? Insurance, slip rental.
Liveaboard marinas are getting hard to find. Monthly rent is $20+ a foot plus utilities.
i love you two completely, on this video when Victoria lifted up the mat in the galley you can see how it was not completely redone. It is a great boat by all means but, in my thoughts, that is just a i hope someone does not see that
🙈
Where can I smart ring from? and yes I've been trying to find it?
You can find it on Amazon
Pretty little yacht n great presentation as usual. Wondering if u two could d9 a garc8a sailb9at, I want ur opinion n going by a explorer sailb9at tyvm❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
so i had a brilliant thought just now.... what if you could incorporate Laser projectors with the screens that pop up or down. imagine the space saving That could accomplish, and also how Huge the screens could be once fully unfurled? could be way better than the regular screen TVs or Monitors, for certain uses. then keep the normal screen monitor/TVs for the important monitoring work, and as such they cna be a little smaller, or placed strategically to be visible, but not obtrusive. while the more entertainment screens could be useful but way larger but able to eb hidden away in a compact space.
Great idea! 💡 thanks for sharing! 🙏🏼 ⚓️
Thanks. So where is Natistyles located now? CA or FL or elsewhere? It is now late 2024 large boat market seems to be falling in more than one sub markets. What are you seeing in your local area? Seems like a lot of boomers are trying to sell off their boats, tired of dock, maintenance and insurance expenses. Especially if they are not using their boats. What have you seen last few months of 2024?
