The long-awaited Atlantic crossing. A big shout out to Dylan, who stepped up from his regular position as a deckhand to Videographer for the crossing to bring this to you while Steve and I were away on vacation. It's a weird feeling watching these videos and seeing life on board when I'm not there. However It's great to see the crew continuing on and getting it done. 😎
Oh that’s good news, I thought he’d been ill and unable to film.💪💪💪
the good old Dylan
Loon videos are like Friends episodes. It's not complete without the main characters.
Yall have gotta try out the submarine in croatia! It's my favorite restaurant there. Or if you're in rijeka boonkers is good too.
I was wondering where the captain was but your Crew sir looks like they did a wonderful job on the crossing
For those eager to know if I was ever able to shower again; I can confirm there were multiple spouts that released water, largely into my eyes and gaping mouth as I screamed in horror. But it peeled off rather easily and I spent the remainder of the shower plotting revenge on the deck team which you’ll see in part 2 😄
Hahaha 😂🙈🚿🌧️🛀
😂😂😂
Revenge? Two words..... "Super" "Glue".
Thank You Dylan for stepping into the role of videographer for the passing and to the Loon Crew for sharing your travels across the beautiful waters with all of us, job well done! 👏🏼❤️
We think he did a great job for his first time filming
Love seeing a Canadian Captain onboard. We are a rarity in the yachting industry.
Canadian, eh? Must have been a very polite crossing😀
Wow, this might be the first time I've ever seen Captain Paul take a vacation. Well deserved!
You obviously don't watch very much lol I haven't seen him do one crossing
@@Kiwifarmerboy it's the ideal time for a Captain's vacation, as the maximum risk/responsibility is with high-value/dollar charter guests on board.
@@Stephen_Lafferty hey there's no hate from me Paul works very hard I'm just saying the comment was irrelevant and wrong
Welcome Captain Ben!!! A much deserved time away for Paul. Loon is in great hands with this crew
Well done Dyl on filming in the rubbish weather and to the whole team for keeping spirits higher than the swell! Xx
Ko ju i ju aqkflxkxkg är idol på🎉la🤗🤭🤤😑🫢😧
Magnificent drone shots! And great music choices!
Always lifts my spirits when I see my grandson chris have a safe trip greetings to all the incredible crew
Hahaha. Nice
But sounds like he had a bit of a rough crossing🤭
Great job crew. Getting the job done while being tossed around. Well, except for Chris apparently 😂
Cheers folks. 👍👍
Very good part one of the crossing and so glad you all keep yourselves amused while out there in the BIG BLUE. Looking forward to part 2 .
Thank you Jonathan, we always appreciate your comments 😊
Fantastic to see part 1 of the long awaited Atlantic crossing.
GREAT job by Dylan, I enjoy his no-nonsense approach I must say.
It's great to see, despite all the obvious hard work done by all the crew, there's still time for camaraderie and hi-jinks.
Hopefully part 2 will feature the hard working engineers who are actually keeping Loon moving forward.
Excellent job Dylan. Great video!
You have been listening, watching put in practice to catch drones. Well done Dylan thank you.
Hey guys and girls, you are doing an absolutely great job out there! But may I recommend using an Festool sander, for example the Rotex RO 150- FEQ, for sanding your gorgeous wooden deck! I guarantee You heaps more fun in less time, instead of working with the Bosch green line! Wish you all the best and a great season
Well done Dylan!
For his first video he’s done a great job
Indeed, he did a good job
Of all of the comments I could make about Loon content, which I love, I'm pleased to note that we have the same juicer!
Captain Ben - welcome aboard and looking forward to the sea journey across to the Med for the next charter season. Hope all goes well and take care and God Speed 👍🙏😇🛳️
Lot of South Africans in the crew. Nice to see my fellows doing well, getting out and seeing the world, showing the world how friendly and hardworking South Africans are. Only thing that could make it better is if their was a more representative view of the population in SA, thus giving more people an opportunity to see the orld and experience a different lifestyle.😊
I am really impressed with the drone shots when the weather was still unsettled.
The video, without showing the ill effects on the crew, still conveyed that this is not a pleasure cruise and the crew still has lots of work to do.
Cameras never really show how nasty the sea can get, but the drone shots really showed the effect on Loon.
Great job Dylan!! Crew you guys are amazing!
Captain Ben welcome to the Loonatics!!! Cheers all!
Wow... @14:55 I love those laundry machines. I know it is weird but I like cleaning if I have the correct machines and that laundry room is perfect! I could easily spend all day every day working it. I would have that room spic and span and working perfectly. Nothing better on earth than Mielle Commercial machines. They so deserve to be kept in tip top shape and that room run like a top.
Quite correct. MIELE are the BEST laundry equipment on the market ! I have worked on them for many years. 👍👍
@@user-qu8cx3tf1w ...I wonder what they cost to purchase new?
That's the issue with having cabins up front. Also why I woukd never have a main deck owner's cabin on an explorer yacht because I wouod be living aboard that yacht going places. I would be in the back and down as low as possible. Like sleep in the beach club. Lol. No, but low as possible. It sucks on small crew areas like a Sanlorenzo where your bed is not only small and oddly shaped, but also the ceiling is a couple inches from you and you get bounced into it all night. So we would sleep on cushions In the main salon.
11:00 nice Shirt xD
Cheeky bugger, Ben!
Was Cap wearing an "OnlyFins" shirt? That is hilarious!
I always enjoy your videos no matter how old they are!
Love when a new video drops!
Once a sailor, always a sailor... what great fun ❤ Cheers to the crew for sharing the adventure 🥂
I've never been abord a ship in the deep ocean. I have no idea how my body would handle it. But it is an experience I wish I had.
I have been a number of times and while the seas can get rough/rolling like, I’ve never gotten sea sick as others are puking their toenails up, I can sleep like a baby during any high winds/storms (although I’ve come close to being tossed out of bed several times), some get sea sick while others fare just fine! If you’re ever adventuring off on a cruise it’s probably best to pick up some Dramamine to bring along with you, just in case, you don’t want the experience spent hurling over the side of the vessel or in a bathroom for many hours, constantly feeling nauseous, unable to keep anything down, and miss all the fun and sights/scenery.
Besides the seasickness the feeling of being completely isolated is something that is humbling and brings you down to earth. The everyday things we worry about on land are a distant memory. It’s you and the sea. I used to plan my whole life out while I was on watch late at night or early mornings watching those sunrises and sunsets takes you away.
Dylans right hand middle finger.....I shall not assume, I shall not assume, I shall not assume 😜😜😜
Terrific insight and great filming/editing/soundtrack - thank you to the A-Team on Loon : - ) xx
Very nice Tuna dish.
It tasted amazing!! 🎣🐟🍣
What happened in the shower ???? Nice to see the weather, doesn't look bad but obviously is, sometimes we forget how big the boat is I suppose so the waves must be big. Looking forward to more.
Don’t worry Courtney will get her revenge 😂
Absolutely epic video.. really enjoyed the crossing. Hope Captain Paul Clarke and Alex got their much needed rest. 🔥🔥👍👍❤️😊
While Ben is great.... I do miss Paul. Hope he has a fantastic vacation. 🙂
Do you ever do an Atlantic Crossing (eastbound or westbound) with passengers onboard? I ask because this is my idea of heaven not stopping at any ports and just enjoying a couple of weeks out on the open water.
Some absolutely great camera work and shots on this episode. Hats off to those involved. Everyone seems to be on top of it in their roles and assignments and the Loon is looking outstanding. Who needs Capt. Clarke ? Just kidding gang. SMOOTHE SAILING.......
It's easy to see that the owner is very consistent in his preference for all things (and crew), to look their best.
Seeing this video tells me I missed you by hours when I was there!!! I almost got to see you in person.
A truly fascinating series / documentary, well done .
Aaah I can’t wait to do the next one!! So cool 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
So sorry about the 🌊 ride there. But the progress made through it was very good. A solid vessel is awesome and that is Loon! 🤗
I'll keep an eye out for you from the Sierra Nevada mountains when you pass Salobreña on your passage to Itally.
Respect ⚓️
Watching from Gibraltar! Hope you enjoy your stay with us
I like this captain. Ben seems so much more relaxed and easy going. He makes a good captain.
Me too. I find Paul aloof and boring.
Thank you for this view behind an atlantic crossing on a SY!
So great. Been waiting to see this. Miss the atlantic crossings, that's one big blue ocean.. nothing but water❤
What was the speed when the tuna was caught?
What an excellent way to spend some at sea time
Day 5 drone shots were really excellent
🇿🇦 Lekker man!
Hope the weather wasn't so bad that Piper didn't have to leave her cabin due to choppy seas.
Day 3 & 4 looks testing for Loon, and for the crew.
Loon handled the ocean swells great.. Some of the pollywogs not so much 😂
Love watching the crossings. It's hard finding new stuff, I get it, but still fun to watch.
always wanted to be an engineer hell even a deckhand on one of these. seems like a dream job
Always fun watching your updates. Question: why do you choose to cross on your own bottom vs Dockwise? Great watching!
Loon was deigned to cross oceans with over 6,000nm range. It’s mostly yachts under 150’ that use ships.
Courtney is sooo pretty
Love the episode, thanks team!
Luv watching all the content
Nice video Dylan does a great job
It's 🌊🏄♀️🏄♂️🏄
Nice video! I've done crossings of the Baltic Sea in 50 footers, this is a bit different. :D
Great video...great team
Wish u a good trip, let the MTU 4000s roar, hope they will do their job properly as expected 👌 is there a video where the engines are running?
Capt Ben's OnlyFish shirt 🤔, lost opportunity making it OnlyFins 😏
Excellent video as always! @MotorYachtLoon - do you ever turn the engines off to rest or are they on 24x7 until you get to land next? Also, is there a "crew count" to verify everyone is onboard and if so, how often is that count/verification? Thanks again for the amazing videos - I would do anything to be there and crossing the Atlantic with you. Looks like fun!
Great video! During a crossing like this, do you have some of the crew working at night and sleeping during the day -- so as to be ready in case something comes up at night?
Love the content. But please be careful with the audio mixing. The music montages are much louder than the talking parts. I'm constantly hovering over the volume knob.
Great job Dylan, the video is so much better now, I think this should be a permanent change.
Very interesting vid… the highlights, the lowlights. I think I’d prefer a little more freeboard but everything’s a compromise of course.
enjoyed very much...
Great video but have to laugh at your comments about the seas being choppy and the vessel movements pitching and rolling haha.This weather is like crossing a small duck pond, you were so lucky with this weather.
If you want to prevent mildew/mold from forming, there is a product called Concrobium that effectively eliminates and prevents!
I enjoyed the daily pin drops showing your progress ! From what I could tell Nina didn’t order enough jalapeño as evidenced by how little went into that tuna ! lol !
Just out of curiosity, why don’t super yacht manufacturers use the fake teak, seems like it would be so much easier to maintain? Great video, be safe!
If it was "sporty" for Loon, imagine what it's like on a 80 footer!!!
Hope to see you un the Med in couples of week
Fun video!
Would you consider releasing B-roll footage edits of the yacht in the open sea/ocean? I would love to have chill out videos of footage like this available!
VERY GOOD
I can only assume this was filmed many weeks ago as end of June is very very late to cross!
You must have a desalination system on board. Maybe if time allows, you could make a video of that in the future.
Note to Chef Dean.......Tuna are a warm blooded fish and should be bled and then refrigerated for several hours before filleting.
Always enjoy the content. Constructive critique for the new content creator - please work a little at volume matching the dialogue and transition music. The music blasts my ears out while much of the dialogue sounds like church mice. Otherwise, great shots of Loon on the open water! Keep it up!
My thoughts exactly. Hard to watch to honest
That wouldn't have been Dylan, this would been edited much more recmtly as this happened amny week back.
Great video as always. Question, how come you don't fish in the med? Laws or lack of fish?
We do but it’s not as plentiful 🎣
Oh, you've got yourself a Fe$tool CT Vac there! They're nice stuff. But how did you the boss to approve the cost?
😂😂😂😂 awesome
Aquaman? Stopppppppppp 😂🤣 😂 🤣 😂 🤣 😅
Why dont you take guests on the Atlantic crowssing ? I would love to be on board the Loon Crew. Maybe you should create a youtube challenge, someone could have a ride with you next time you cross the Atlantic. I don’t think anyone normal would mind to eat crew food.
In the video you can see they do a lot of maintenance and drills as they are crossing. They don’t want to waste time dealing with guests as they cross.
Do you guys get to use the amenities while underway
How
Much fuel did it take to
Make the crossing or how much does it hold total
The responsibility of the captain is indeed horrifying ,particularly as the fire "practice" was being described to the crew. Very sobering indeed.
Wash the teak regularly with salt water and no mold.
You should show so.e footage of Captain Paul on vacation. I would love to see him in his own boat.
Does Loon have active stabilisation, eg side or tank transfer?
Poor Courtney ahah 🚿
That little puffer fish just has the weirdest day of its life
RIght!! He's lucky we were there to save him 😎
That was a really great "all round video". But, where is Paige? I haven't even seen her on your current videos, like the Monaco weekend.
Do you ever take passengers for the Atlantic crossings?
3: 50 Ship will be passing North of the Bahamas ...
Big difference ....locatiion miscommunication on ships is a big deal ...
Cool thanks 🙏
Enjoyable video to watch. I do have some small points of critique if you're interested in knowing.
There is a noticeable jump in overall volume at different points in the video. For example the music at 3:22 is far lower than that at 15:12.
Also some mishaps with the nationality flags and names from 17:34 and on.
Besides that all spot on, well done!
8:36 What camera and gimbal are you using? Do you have problems with the camera overheating as you film?
