these videos really do come off the best when you present the boat yourself. very well done. the talent to present is completely different than repping a buyer or owner, etc. comfort on camera and familiarity with the process go a very long way to making it come off better. not to disparage other parts of the industry but very few people can own presenting with as much comfort.
What a gem, looks sensational, the choices of wood and interior are beautiful. Plenty of bang for your buck. You would not need anything more cruising the world. Good job David and team.
Thanks Colin - KAJAK was one of those yachts that was so impressive that I was worried we couldn't do her justice in the video. It was a grey day in the Bahamas...but she looks amazing.
This yacht ticks all the boxes and is down right stunning. The interior is so tastefully done with the combination of different woods and soft furnishings. Even the crew areas were not overlooked giving them well appointed accommodations.
Who else clicked on the video because the title suggested that David will finally present a kayak and hence an affordable water toy but noooo it's again a gorgeous yacht. PS: It's always great to see those general arrangement plans in the video!
Absolutely beautiful and functional yacht! I love this. I think i would add a heated pool or hottub outside the second master stateroom. The price is excellent. $7.9 million is a steal. Thank you, David. Great walkthrough! 😊
It is not a steal..! Maybe if she was a Feadship, then maybe the 50% loss of value over 15-en something years would be acceptable. But not for this plastic taiwanese boat! Stunning interiors.. I give it that! The taiwaneses were always good in wood craftmanship! But not much else is going for this ship.
Sir, I don't think you have ever done a better walkthrough! Kajak is amazing for a 40m, it is very hard to believe it packs so much in. Only gripe is I didn't hear the range, only Capt lets hang a right and hit the Med instead of the West Coast.
Hello David, As always, your presentations are polished and the cinematography is second to none. An absolutely beautiful yacht, inside and out. That makes two to choose from now..
I loved the engine room (my first love) so clean and spacious. If I ever can afford a yacht like this the first place I would visit is the engine room as that gives you all you need to know about the overall maintenance level of the yacht. If the engine room looks s##t then in nearly all cases the rest of the yacht will also be below par so to speak. Proper professional galley. Love the colour!
A yacht that looks so peaceful, calming colors and lots of details that give this yacht a unique beauty. The only question I often ask myself is: what is the origin of the name. We know about Ragnar that he bears the name of a god. But KAJAK, it's difficult :) A superb video, thank you David and the team.👍👍👍👍🙏🙏
David!....What a beautiful and traditional high gloss lacquered interior. Sort if reminds me of Mr. Youngs yacht Ambrosia! . . . 'Press Through'..Another fantastic video! 🇨🇦🇵🇹
I own a small sailboat and was in Palma marina a few years ago. We were invited aboard a Horizon for the day by an owner we met in a bar by the marina. It was much smaller than this one but the quality was outstanding. This was only her second season and had been owned from new. I was told about trips to Taiwan to see the building of her and the care and service Horizon gave him. I can understand why he chose them for his new boat. Me? A very mass produced French sailboat built down to a price, but she got me to Majorca😂.
Fantastic yacht! Loved the story of the owners U turn and heading off to the Med at the last minute. It shows how well they took care of her. The hidden surprises were wonderful touches. Great job considering Mother Nature did not give you a bright sunny day to work with. I really loved the galley- I’d want to cook in it everyday. The price point is also fantastic.
Thanks - I don’t get the opportunity to meet the owners on board very often, so I enjoyed hearing their stories about the yacht. Sounds like they loved every second on board.
I believe the shower on the sundeck is for use _before_ you enter the hottube. That small amount of water needs chemically treated (some minor, some major) between uses, and it gets dirty very quickly if users are not clean before entering. Great yacht.
If the hull is steel and the super structure aluminum then this at 8 million is a steal! Hell, even a GRP hull for what you get is pretty good (although not as safe for true world travel). If I wasn't lite $7, 945,000, I'd pick this up in a heart beat!
So glad to see her keep in such GOOD SHAPE still..., we build her among 2006~2007 in Premier Shipyard (Horizon Group - Superyacht Line), Kaohsiung, Taiwan. (First owners were two Brothers, who name after their mother as MISS ROSE.) The very Fist 132' among 5 vessels of Premier series. I wonder why no specific introduction on the floor of Foyer area around the Spiral Staircase, it was build up by Onyx with continuous cutting for the "River Pattern" to flow......that's a real piece of ART on this boat........
Hi James. We are the owners and yes, will will make note of the spectacular onyx. It’s beautiful and they done make yachts this well anymore. Well done and thank you !
@@GeoffMulligan-dn2og Hi, James? I didn't know I was a James. 😅 If you own a ship like this, I congratulate you on it. Being able to be on a ship like this, or to ride on it, has always been a fascination for me. I think we can only be more in the 50-foot class. 😄 Maybe you have a good tip for me to go a little bit further in life. How did you do it?
Personally not even near being able to even rent it for a day But I can't help Thinkin That boat Would be my only Residence 😂🎉 I enjoy the tour Have a Nice day 🎉
what an awesome yacht.. luv the small unique feature and cool ideas, like the storage spaces on the seats.. nice... I think my favorite part of the yacht is the owner suite at the bridge deck.. just fantastic.. could this yacht "be" more awesome.. (If you know what I mean..hahaha)
Not that you'll respond, but that galley comment is one thing I can't fathom and that you bring up is if you are going to going away for a long time, you want a big galley then why does Numarine, especially for the 37XP, but the 32 as well, they give you a shoebox for a gallery?
Only thing missing on every single yacht video is prices. How much is the purchase price and how much does it cost to maintain including paying the crew.
Just noticed there isn't a swim platform or much of a transom apparently. And too bad a functional outdoor space at the bow was not part of the layout; everything just seems so aft !!
@@Yachtsforsaleblog Absolutely enjoyed KAJAK! The fact the owners are confident enough to take her across the Atlantic on her own bottom speaks volumes!
I looked the yacht up under its former name MISS ROSE - and several sites say it is only rated for SIX passengers. That seems odd. Especially because it does list all the cabins including the 2 masters. Also said it was tge first to use something called SCRIMP molding. I wonder if there is something keeping the price down on this one?
Thanks for your comment. I also found that article in Charterworld.com. It’s a mistake. Every other site I found correctly states that the yacht can accommodate 10 guests. The Scrimp reference is interesting, and something I didn’t know. Scrimp was a state of the art method of using vacuum to create GRP hulls around the time the yacht was built in 2008. It’s still widely used today. Pricewise, she’s priced to sell but in line with other premium yachts of the same size and age.
What a beautiful yacht! But I can't understand why owners insist on putting the yacht name on things. I'm sure I wouldn't need reminding when I put my head on the pillow at night.
In broad general terms what persentage of annual maintenance costs (incl F/T crew) go up from 299 GRT to 399 GRT to 499 GRT? Obviously age and make will make costs vary but I'm assuming the % increase might be expressed. I mean if I had the same exact ship in a 299-399-499 how much more would they cost me?
There is no one else I want describing my yacht when it's for sale. Wait. First, I must buy one from his marketing, then decide whether or not to sell. Seriously, this yacht is everything anyone could want. And for just under 8M, it seems a steal. Considering my bank account has plenty of zeros, just on the wrong side of the decimal point.
Truly an awesome interior but not happy about the speed, I believe that an yacht at that price must cruise above 20 knots, why didn't the makers provided with a MTU V16 instead, it has the space to fit it.
@8:46 How many people would want to watch each other through that shower glass taking a dump...???...J/S...First upgrade, get that glass that instantly frost when you push a button. LOL (-:
David Seal really has the knack of making these yacht videos so watchable, educational and interesting. Thank you David.
British make the best yacht tours 😁
I second this 👆🏻
WOW! The interior got me! It is just the right mix of modern and classic , this is a true beaut!!
Yes, I thought the interior was very elegant.
these videos really do come off the best when you present the boat yourself. very well done. the talent to present is completely different than repping a buyer or owner, etc. comfort on camera and familiarity with the process go a very long way to making it come off better. not to disparage other parts of the industry but very few people can own presenting with as much comfort.
Very appealing decor. But what really got me was the galley! I agree, on a yacht of this size, that galley is awesome!

Thanks Colin - KAJAK was one of those yachts that was so impressive that I was worried we couldn't do her justice in the video. It was a grey day in the Bahamas...but she looks amazing.
To be honest I am also shocked at the price, what a deal for this awesome value!
A lot of "boat for your buck"!
Splendor, awesome, beautiful use of different woods which means the boat feels restful comfortable
Home from home.
Thanks for showing us her David.
This yacht ticks all the boxes and is down right stunning. The interior is so tastefully done with the combination of different woods and soft furnishings. Even the crew areas were not overlooked giving them well appointed accommodations.
She is absolutely gorgeous, there are no other words. Sorry I would not put her to charter, as I would live full time on such a wonderful yacht.
This is the best interior design on a yacht I’ve ever seen and I’ve seen loads irl and online hands down the best
I loved the woods!!! So beautiful! I like the use of space. A great tour!!
Thank you so much!
A great life indeed, and a great video to match. Thank you.
This is one of if not the best yacht for its size you have shown us....thank you
Who else clicked on the video because the title suggested that David will finally present a kayak and hence an affordable water toy but noooo it's again a gorgeous yacht.
PS: It's always great to see those general arrangement plans in the video!
Autocorrect is a nuisance. Writing the title kept coming out as Kayak! 🤦♂️

That's a gorgeous yacht, love the interior decor and mix of woods. I could easily live my life on that, exploring the many places I want to see
One of the better expedition yachts I've seen, absolutely love the layout
I was super-impressed when I saw it. I hadn't spent much time on Horizon yachts before, didn't realise how much they offer.
@@Yachtsforsaleblog Actually a very beautiful yacht
I have to say, it is one of the nicest yacht. @@paton57

what a beauty with all the woods and a great price too. thanks david, cheers!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Sumptuous - that’s how I’d sum up this yacht. Great vid as always, thanks.
The interior design and layout is spectacular!

Would make a great charter boat. The side screens on the aft deck are a must, every yacht should have them.

The galley appears to be top-notch!

My new work place. I love it ❤
Very nice. A beauty indeed ❤!
Yes nice yacht. Regarding high clossy varnish : I prefer to have semi gloss.
Reason : You have in high gloss to many reflections of the sun.
Amazing interior

Kajak - who loves you baby.
That yacht looks brand new, it clearly has been very taken care of

Thanks for watching!
LOVE IT ❤
Can't decide which I would prefer high gloss woodwork or
Matte
White carpet is perfect with full wall panel woodwork
How does mileage affect the resale value ?? The mileage on this boat is probably way above the average.
I have Starlink on my boat and it's amazing. I have the plan for RV's because it's way cheaper, it's like 1/8th the price for half the speed.
Not that you'll respond, but that galley comment is one thing I can't fathom and that you bring up is if you are going to going away for a long time, you want a big galley then why does Numarine, especially for the 37XP, but the 32 as well, they give you a shoebox for a gallery?
Very nice, looks like the boat Nina was on temporarily when she came back to from. Is this a GRP yacht?
Only thing missing on every single yacht video is prices. How much is the purchase price and how much does it cost to maintain including paying the crew.
Just noticed there isn't a swim platform or much of a transom apparently. And too bad a functional outdoor space at the bow was not part of the layout; everything just seems so aft !!
Asking price is good.
Are the rumors true that Naval Yachts in Turkey had a devastating fire last week?
Sadly yes...very sad indeed but the owners are resilient. I'm sure they'll rebuild.
Did you enjoy the KAJAK video?
@@Yachtsforsaleblog Absolutely enjoyed KAJAK! The fact the owners are confident enough to take her across the Atlantic on her own bottom speaks volumes!

Was the bridge deck stateroom in the original design & construction or was it added in the 2022 refit?
Original
what type of yacht would be fit for s queen
Wow😮! $7.9 M almost seems like a bargain for this!😏👍💖‼
What a beautiful yacht! But I can't understand why owners insist on putting the yacht name on things. I'm sure I wouldn't need reminding when I put my head on the pillow at night.
That's a galley!!

Is my imagination or is the bathing platform constantly underwater whilst underway?

Seriously, this yacht is everything anyone could want. And for just under 8M, it seems a steal. Considering my bank account has plenty of zeros, just on the wrong side of the decimal point.
Can the name of this yaught be changed to customer personal specifications?
Of course!
Truly an awesome interior but not happy about the speed, I believe that an yacht at that price must cruise above 20 knots, why didn't the makers provided with a MTU V16 instead, it has the space to fit it.
How much does it cost to book this guy to sell your ship for you?
You just have to entrust Northrop & Johnson with the marketing 😁
Nice boat but it's not my style for interior. I prefer more modern and zen like minimalist layout and materials. Love the galley and storage for toys.
Ja, das ist auf jeden Fall deutlich günstiger herzustellen und hebt den Gewinn der Werft. 😉
And so, did the owners take KJAK through the North Sea?
I feel even poorer now 😅
Danny Webb had given up acting?

Noice...
SIMPLY 🥲 BEAUTIFUL

FLAWLESS CREATION
🍾👙🍾👙🥂👙
Your audio is driving me nuts. Sounds like you are recording this in post and the audio isn't natural sounding
Is it pronounced "k-jack" or like "ka-yak". Because if the owner is European it would have the soft J sound.
K-JACK. I had the pleasure of meeting the owners, and that's how they pronounced it.
A beautiful yacht but all those acres of high gloss wood, gold taps etc, it’s far too flashy and bling for my taste.
Too glossy. Blinding.
These chat bot•s on the sale sides are deep anoying, make them posible to desapere….
TH-cam-music has replaced muzak as the worst "music" in the world
The best way to watch his videos is on mute... my goodness he says dumb things..
