If I am from Marketing at ABC Yacht Sales, and you even remotely state that you're interested in filming a boat, I am all over you! Airfare? Check. Hotel accommodations? Check. Free wine-n-dine? Check! Sea Trial? Check, check, check! You are the best advertising any of these yacht builders and brokers could have. You're professional, enthusiastic, funny, and just so wonderfully British! Glad Sun Seeker saw the error of their ways. Cheers! Now, I'm on to the review.
Indeed. What would our favourite Yacht reporter do if the boats has fewer drawers and storage spaeces. Finish in 15 mins. Very enjoyable Vlogs but too detailed. Promise to take his word if he were to say more storage here,there.
Not just the best, but the BIGGEST globally (I think). Nick has over half a million subs. Nautistyles has under half a million and they have, how can I put this, "prominent visual glamour appeal." MB&Y have fewer than 200K. BoatTEST have fewer than 200k. Boat Show just over 300k. Perhaps Sunseeker had hired that sacked lass from Bud Lite...
Glad Sunseeker has you back aboard; you're probably their biggest marketing asset, besides the people who make the photo and GA albums. Fantastic layout on this boat.
I couldn't have said it better. Every single boat maker in the world saw part one and got scrambling to figure out how to catch up. Princess gained so many lifetime fans from how absolutely incredible they handled the tour and how well the fella giving it presented himself. I don't think there was anything that could have been done better and obviously sunseeker finally got the memo. Nick sells boat. Period. I don't think I've ever seen a channel more sincerely loved and supported by viewers than his.
First off 👏👏👏👏 Big round of applause to sunseeker for seeing sence and getting back with Aquaholic and this one was a epic one for to restart partner ship love this one so many configuration to be had and think the storage bins next to rear steps where for ropes looking forward to many more sunseeker on Aquaholic especially the 55 manhattan and new preditors
Hats off to you for not making a big public deal about the past issues with one person at Sunseeker, all the “offended by something and I’ll let everyone know” people take note…
Thank you, Nick, for making your videos so smooth. Like when you spun around to show what was behind you and you did it slowly. I suffer from vertigo and fast video movements can set me off. Much appreciated.
Glad to see SS have come to their senses and invited you back Nick. Their boats are always eye catching. Myself and brother had a tour of their Poole site 20 yrs ago and it was a great experience. Love this model cheers Nick and SS. 😊🍸
Was going to make a marketing joke, but I see that's well taken care of in the comments already! But seriously, you're most (quality) builders' dream, I would think. Glad you're back aboard with them, they really do make a lovely boat too. Cheers, Nick.
So glad to see you doing a review of Sunseeker again. You have shown many owner suites but this one just works for me. Don't know why, maybe the Manhattan bed board. Thanks for another grade A review.
Sunseekers are always amazing, and this one does not fail to impress. Thank you for allowing us to see it through your eyes. It is always a pleasure to walk with you. We would as well like to wish the former marketing member the best of luck at their new career at McDonald's. We are sure that they'll fit right in. They should consider themselves lucky that you are the gentleman that you are. Had you been less so, I doubt they would have faired well. A few hundred thousand Aquaholics is not a hoard any would willing faced. As always my friend, where you go, we follow. Thank you.
It's so good to see you back on a Sunseeker and an Ocean model to boot! Loved this model as much I loved the Ocean 90. The finishes and décor are gorgeous. Whoever owns this gorgeous thing, is truly lucky. Also, just for the record, I love that you don't edit a lot, if you edit anything. I love the real cuts of your tours. I love that you open doors, cupboards and drawers, it's exactly what I do when looking to purchase anything. You are thorough in your tours and that's why I love them! Thank you so much for the time you put into your tours and channel. You're the best!
Main deck is a cracking space. VIP cabin too is a nice space. Helm, my favourite part of the boat. I’d be happy to skipper there. Great tour Nick and glad you’re back on terms with Sunseeker.
Your video of the Sunseeker Predator 55 Evo three years ago was the first boat video I ever watched, and it opened a huge door into a nautical world for me, so far as to lead me to reconsider life goals. Glad to see sunseeker's back!
What a gorgeous boat .. well pretty much ship at this point, I guess! Despite the owners cabin bathroom being larger (naturally), I actually think that the way they integrated the walnut paneling was more elegant in the VIP guest cabin, with a more consistent wooden feel, while still leaving space to get out of the shower wet, without worrying too much about damaging the wood. I'm glad that Sunseeker saw the light (Sun?) and started working with you again, this can only be an enormous benefit for them!
Well, Nick... Yet another preview of a magnificent yacht. I have wondered why your videos are just a tad better than your Colleagues - and now I know. You take you time, and you give descriptions of even the smallest detail, such as the feeling of walking up the stairs to the upper deck.... this could seem not important, but it just give a viewer this feeling of - almost - being with you doing the tourAnd what a gorgeous yacht this is - a worthy successor to the 90 ocean - thank you
Thanks Nick, you found my perfect boat, with the owners cabin on the main deck and next to the kitchen, with the floor to ceiling surrounding windows, and glass sliding doors, to a private bow, fantastic! The contrasting wall coverings are beautifully integrated together. Now I just have to save all of my... "Shekels"
Sunseeker has spared nothimg in the design, engineering, layout, constuction and fitting out of this fine yacht. Thank you Sunseeker for sharing with us, And thank you Nick for an informative, entreating tour.
Not the best looking Sunseeker I have ever seen, but utterly luxurious and practical. ❤ glad you are friends again, amazing how one individual can mess up things.
Welcome back indeed! The main deck is unbelievably nice, it’s has to be the best I’ve ever seen on a 25 meter!! Upper deck and bridge looks very comfortable and well laid out. Sunseeker has really produced a lovely Vessel Thanks for the tour Nick
Ah, the power of competition! Sunseeker watched what an absolute W Princess Yachts just scored for themselves in Nick’s community and amongst boats enthusiasts with an amazing factory tour presented by a fantastic lovable guide Ross, and started scratching their heads… Then they’ve finally started using those things not just for scratching… and what do we have now? A month after the first Princess tour video - would you believe, Nick is reviewing a Sunseeker😂 Fantastic video as always! Thank you a lot👏🏻 Fun fact: besides one video with an older Sunseeker yacht, this is the first Sunseeker on Aquaholic since Apr 2022! Once again, talk about taking PR Ls and then finally coming back to your senses after your main local competitor just hit it out of the park with a fantastic series!
@@tommoore8880 Thank you! Which if correct fits perfectly with what I’ve said before, since Southampton boat show was 13-22 Sep 2024, while the first Princess video was released on 8 Sep 2024, if my dates are correct. Obviously, we still won’t know if any of it is actually true, but the “coincidence” is rather obvious :)
This entire ship is wonderful for family and friends to live comfortably in every area for extended periods. Just add a washer/dryer combo near the bedrooms for swimwear so the full size units are kept free for everything else. Sunseeker has a major Winner on their hands with this layout. TY Nick.
Definitely a beautiful yacht, really nice finishes throughout and a nice layout, so spacious everywhere except the poor crew area which is a little cramped. I would keep the dining area on the main deck and I would have a hot tub up on the top deck. Nice to see you back with Sunseeker, great tour Nick thank you.
I had wondered why there hadn't been a Sunseeker video for a while, so glad you are back on board with your inimitable style squire, I really like their beautiful boats! If only I had the money ......
As someone who only dreams of these boats, can’t remember the last time they were on a boat. I don’t know why I love these but there’s nothing that beats them on a Sunday morning
So glad you're back with Sunseeker, have missed them. Great review of a very impressive mid sized yacht. Very open design and looks good for a party vessel but with great accommodation for some serious boating. Once again Nick many thanks for your expertise and still including "I'll edit that out later"!!!!
Yes, welcome back to Sunseeker 👍 This lovely yacht looks like an alternative to Princess X80, and maybe this Sunseeker is a little lower priced😃 Great, long tour from you Nick 😊
You, dear Sir, are the Clarkson, Hammond and May, of the boating world. I cannot, simply cannot watch any other channel, show or review if it’s not presented by yourself. Thank you Nick for showing me something that even though i cannot afford 😂 i still absolutely love.
Brilliant comprehensive tour of a nicely appointed Sunseeker Ocean 156. I absolutely love the country kitchen with a direct walkout to the bow and the sky lounge enclosed helm. Bright, aerie and welcoming giving to a multitude of uses. Nick, have a wonderful week!
I'm glad Sunseeker came to their senses, 😉 but now I'm upset with them. When I saw "Ocean 156" I was expecting a 156' foot (47.5m) boat, not an 82'6" (24.14m) boat. 😝 Great tour! Those elbow-high railings are really underrated. Definitely something I would want.
Glad to Sunseeker came to their senses. There were parts I liked, but like some others have said, the woodwork/finish left a bit to be desired…it looked like laminate with decal finish. Certainly not what I would pay that amount of coin for. But…different tastes for different people!
Nick, I havnt read all the comments, but just in case……to stop the boat lights from flickering on your video it can easily be fixed by adjusting your frame rate to something higher. You can even do some slow motion stuff and smooth out your panning by slowing the video down in post which will make for even smoother footage
Good to see you back on Sunseeker....frankly, it has been their loss, so good news that the individual has departed. I always feel that Sunseeker fit out is a level above Fairline/Princess.....may be an illusion, but the fit finish looks tighter (less likely to rattle when underway), and the quality of the stainless steel always looks better. Remember the Manhattan 50 which you covered a while ago with the new owners too? That was a 2005 boat and still looked perfect- bears out the original quality. Man, I loved that boat! The more access doors and sliding sunroofs the more opportunity for water ingress and staining as the boat settles in, so Sunseeker must be confidant of their quality with this one! Not the prettiest Sunseeker I have ever seen, but beauty seems to be somewhat lost on the latest designs of all motor cruisers. Great tour Nick.
Great to see you back on a Sunseeker! Great tour, great boat! All the space you could want and well laid out and still provides Sunseeker performance! Thank you Nick! Have great weeks one and all.
Great video and fantastic to see Sunseeker back on the channel! Whenever I play fantasy yacht purchase (I’m sure we all do it) Sunseeker and Princess are always at the top of the list! Although I do love a Galeon too!
What a stunner! Perfect main deck and accommodation. Could have an option of top deck owner cabin and that would then have private front and rear balcony. But what a boat
As I have seen your Princess build series, I see a huge difference in many areas in terms of finishes. Don't misunderstand, I think Sunseekers are excellent yachts, and I would be proud to own one. But there is a difference. I really like this boat. The layout is excellent. The price is also reasonable. Thanks, Nick!
Partially agree. The Sunseeker of 7-8 years ago where the dark woods were heavily used for me were above and beyond any builder. But these light “faker” woods do nothing for me. They look cheap. Would still choose Sunseeker.
Excellent Sunseeker & Nick👍❤ Fantastic boat👍main deck exactly what I think a house boat would look like(though a lot more upmarket I hasten to add), beautiful! First time I thought the Bow accommodation looked better than the stern/owners, loved the offset entry👍 Just sooooooo big, loved all of it ,,,,,,,,,,,,, needed a better bar area though! For all the parties 🎈 you’d be having because you’d won the big jackpot🤭🤗🤓
Well done you sir I’m so glad you’re enjoying the Sunseeker again and bloody hell what a Sunseeker to come back to it fantastic, i must admit that I’ve missed them. Having said that she’s absolutely beautiful i don’t think I’d change much except maybe a hot tub like you said it can be done. Again another British beauty of a boat. Thanks Nick just brilliant 😀👍👍👍
Great to see a new Sunseeker review again and pleased they came to their senses. Love the style and design of Sunseekers. Any chance of a tour of the Poole factory as would make an interesting comparison with Princess. Two great British boat building Companies. Hope that Smugglers isn’t being too abandoned at the moment with all of the great yacht tours going on. 🙂
Great to see two greats united again!! Nick exceptional tour as always. This is definitely a yacht for adverse climates unless it was crew ran. Owner operating in the med while sat in an enclosed helm doesn’t appeal, but I get it for some locations, like Windermere as an example 🤣
Thanks for explaining that you had a falling out with them. Haven't been following long so its nice to know what everyone was talking about. nice little yacht
The light flicker on the video is due to how a camera works, it doesn’t capture a continuous stream of light but a bunch of pictures a very small amount of time apart. The rate at which the camera takes these photos is called the Frames Per Second or FPS. Shooting 4k video at 60 fps details the quality of each image and the number of images taken per second. Higher fps = smoother video. The flickering (stroboscopic effect) comes in when filming LED lights/screens and such as LEDs aren’t continuously on, but flicker at their own rate (60Hz or something depending on the circuit) in order to save energy. When the FPS of the camera doesn’t line up with the flickering of the LEDs you get the flickering on video.
Wow, this is an amazing boat to re-start our journey with Sunseeker. I truly love this main deck and beach club designs. That midship galley and forward dining really work. You said something that shocked me; "If you had a water maker". Does that imply there isn't one already standard? Good job, Nick, now get us on more Sunseekers.
We're thrilled that everything has been resolved with the Shipyard and to have you back sharing your wonderful reviews of our boats ♥
The feeling is mutual - lots of catching up to do! 🙂
Was the 'incident' anything to do with you guys not using Miele? LOL
we're glad you are back with Nick too.
Why no water maker? Are they not as important as I’m thinking?
If I am from Marketing at ABC Yacht Sales, and you even remotely state that you're interested in filming a boat, I am all over you! Airfare? Check. Hotel accommodations? Check. Free wine-n-dine? Check! Sea Trial? Check, check, check! You are the best advertising any of these yacht builders and brokers could have. You're professional, enthusiastic, funny, and just so wonderfully British! Glad Sun Seeker saw the error of their ways. Cheers! Now, I'm on to the review.
Thank you! 🙂
What Lee said! 👍
Take Lee up on that!! Loads more interesting new content!!
Well said and yes he is ever so British
You're head of marketing for all of these companies! 😃😃😃

Crikey big marketing error Sunseeker falling out with the best independent UK boat review channel. Pleased to see relationships now restored.
Not just the best, but the BIGGEST globally (I think). Nick has over half a million subs. Nautistyles has under half a million and they have, how can I put this, "prominent visual glamour appeal." MB&Y have fewer than 200K. BoatTEST have fewer than 200k. Boat Show just over 300k. Perhaps Sunseeker had hired that sacked lass from Bud Lite...

@@darthkek1953 ha ha! are you trying to say that Nick in his swim shorts on Smugglers Blues doesn't have glamour appeal! 😀😀
Glad Sunseeker has you back aboard; you're probably their biggest marketing asset, besides the people who make the photo and GA albums. Fantastic layout on this boat.
And EON
Sunseeker had no option after the incredibly informative princess series. Make hay while the sun shines and secure the next smugglers blues nick

Stay tuned..! 😃
Hats off to you for not making a big public deal about the past issues with one person at Sunseeker, all the “offended by something and I’ll let everyone know” people take note…
The fact that a company would NOT want you showing their yachts blows my mind! Great review...and crockery for the win!
Thank you, Nick, for making your videos so smooth. Like when you spun around to show what was behind you and you did it slowly. I suffer from vertigo and fast video movements can set me off. Much appreciated.
I'm glad it helps. 🙂
Sunseeker realised that you bring in more sales than all their fancy sales events combined!!
So pleased to see you back on a Sunseeker where you do your best walkabout reviews
Glad to see SS have come to their senses and invited you back Nick. Their boats are always eye catching. Myself and brother had a tour of their Poole site 20 yrs ago and it was a great experience. Love this model cheers Nick and SS. 😊🍸

I do love Sunseeker, beautiful yacht.
Thanks Sunseeker for allowing us to see her.
And thanks Nick for taking us around.
I'm glad that you enjoyed it 🙂
Glad to see Sunseeker back - it's an impressive yacht with tons of accommodations! Thank you so much for the tour!

Welcome back indeed!
The main deck is unbelievably nice, it’s has to be the best I’ve ever seen on a 25 meter!!
Upper deck and bridge looks very comfortable and well laid out.
Sunseeker has really produced a lovely
Vessel
Thanks for the tour Nick
My pleasure!
Loved the layout of the main deck and the upper deck. Nice job Sunseeker and of course you too Nick for a great tour.
I'm glad that you enjoyed it 🙂
Ah, the power of competition!
Sunseeker watched what an absolute W Princess Yachts just scored for themselves in Nick’s community and amongst boats enthusiasts with an amazing factory tour presented by a fantastic lovable guide Ross, and started scratching their heads…
Then they’ve finally started using those things not just for scratching… and what do we have now?
A month after the first Princess tour video - would you believe, Nick is reviewing a Sunseeker😂
Fantastic video as always! Thank you a lot👏🏻
Fun fact: besides one video with an older Sunseeker yacht, this is the first Sunseeker on Aquaholic since Apr 2022!
Once again, talk about taking PR Ls and then finally coming back to your senses after your main local competitor just hit it out of the park with a fantastic series!
You do realise this is most probably filmed weeks or potentially months ago along with the princess videos too
@@coryjay16 You don’t know when it was filmed now, do you? Neither do I.
But if it’s just a coincidence - that’s a helluva coincidence.
This was filmed at Southampton Boat Show 2024
That is a beautiful boat, especially love the clean lines of the dark glazing ! Well done Sun seeker and Aquaholic, a fine collaboration
@@tommoore8880 Thank you! Which if correct fits perfectly with what I’ve said before, since Southampton boat show was 13-22 Sep 2024, while the first Princess video was released on 8 Sep 2024, if my dates are correct.

Glad you enjoyed it!
My eye was first turned by a Sunseeker way back in the 80's , beautiful boats! Thanks for the as always great tour Nick.
My pleasure!
This is an awesome ship layout wise. Never seen one that actually feels so naturally well lit.
Thanks for the engine room tour, so glad you never forget the most important aspect of any boat, cause without it you ain’t goin nowhere!!🌟🌟🌟
Best yacht I’ve seen on this channel for an age. We’ve been missing out. Different level
Thank you for getting back into Sunseeker boats. They are such interesting boats.
Love the build quality, logical layout and good taste exhibited, very impressive.
This entire ship is wonderful for family and friends to live comfortably in every area for extended periods. Just add a washer/dryer combo near the bedrooms for swimwear so the full size units are kept free for everything else. Sunseeker has a major Winner on their hands with this layout. TY Nick.

Glad to see the sun secret is back in your repertoire. This is a very nice layout and I like the colors and style of everything in this yacht

You're very kind 🙂
Absolutely gorgeous, Sunseeker does it again. It makes you proud to be BBritish 🇬🇧
Brilliant comprehensive tour of a nicely appointed Sunseeker Ocean 156. I absolutely love the country kitchen with a direct walkout to the bow and the sky lounge enclosed helm. Bright, aerie and welcoming giving to a multitude of uses. Nick, have a wonderful week!
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
I'm glad Sunseeker came to their senses, 😉 but now I'm upset with them. When I saw "Ocean 156" I was expecting a 156' foot (47.5m) boat, not an 82'6" (24.14m) boat. 😝
Great tour! Those elbow-high railings are really underrated. Definitely something I would want.
156 is referring to the Gross Tonnage of the vessel. Huge volume for a boat of thi size.
That's a beautiful boat. More like an apartment on water.. lovely
Glad to Sunseeker came to their senses. There were parts I liked, but like some others have said, the woodwork/finish left a bit to be desired…it looked like laminate with decal finish. Certainly not what I would pay that amount of coin for. But…different tastes for different people!
Would be interesting to see a factory tour round their facility in Poole
Nick, I havnt read all the comments, but just in case……to stop the boat lights from flickering on your video it can easily be fixed by adjusting your frame rate to something higher. You can even do some slow motion stuff and smooth out your panning by slowing the video down in post which will make for even smoother footage

She’s a beautiful boat nick. Sunseeker design never fails to please the eye!
Thanks!

What a stunner! Perfect main deck and accommodation. Could have an option of top deck owner cabin and that would then have private front and rear balcony. But what a boat
Great opening statement Nick. Love seeing you back on Sunseekers, love the channel, you keep being an aqua addict! ❤
Will do!
Getting ready for the storm I’m so glad you put another one up there always makes me relax.
Very glad to see you are no longer on the Sunseeker "naught step" 🙂 As that is a simply gorgeous boat - I absolutely love the main deck layout.
Beautiful yacht Nick and excellent video 🚤🛥⛵️👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏
Many thanks JQ!
As I have seen your Princess build series, I see a huge difference in many areas in terms of finishes. Don't misunderstand, I think Sunseekers are excellent yachts, and I would be proud to own one. But there is a difference.
I really like this boat. The layout is excellent. The price is also reasonable.
Thanks, Nick!
Agreed....Princess is a level or 2 above.
@@SuperSetright I would have to disagree with you there but that's your opinion
Partially agree. The Sunseeker of 7-8 years ago where the dark woods were heavily used for me were above and beyond any builder. But these light “faker” woods do nothing for me. They look cheap. Would still choose Sunseeker.
@@ChrisHearne-z7b Yes it is.
A little tip.
If you are afraid for getting a music copyright strikes, there are filters that can remove the music from your audio.
Good to see you back on a Sunseeker. Great tour, as always.
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
So good to see you on a sunseeker back at last. Nick Sunseeker should be delighted your back on their boats 👍👍👍
Excellent Sunseeker & Nick👍❤
Fantastic boat👍main deck exactly what I think a house boat would look like(though a lot more upmarket I hasten to add), beautiful!
First time I thought the Bow accommodation looked better than the stern/owners, loved the offset entry👍
Just sooooooo big, loved all of it ,,,,,,,,,,,,, needed a better bar area though! For all the parties 🎈 you’d be having because you’d won the big jackpot🤭🤗🤓
Nice to see Sunseeker back on the channel again!
More to come!
Well done you sir I’m so glad you’re enjoying the Sunseeker again and bloody hell what a Sunseeker to come back to it fantastic, i must admit that I’ve missed them. Having said that she’s absolutely beautiful i don’t think I’d change much except maybe a hot tub like you said it can be done. Again another British beauty of a boat.
Thanks Nick just brilliant 😀👍👍👍
Thank you kindly 🙂
Stunning boat. Yet again a excellent demonstration of how to present a informative walk round.
Many thanks!
Nice boat. Slick presentation. The main deck layout, as one big social area, works really well.
Great to see a new Sunseeker review again and pleased they came to their senses. Love the style and design of Sunseekers. Any chance of a tour of the Poole factory as would make an interesting comparison with Princess. Two great British boat building Companies. Hope that Smugglers isn’t being too abandoned at the moment with all of the great yacht tours going on. 🙂
Great to see two greats united again!! Nick exceptional tour as always. This is definitely a yacht for adverse climates unless it was crew ran. Owner operating in the med while sat in an enclosed helm doesn’t appeal, but I get it for some locations, like Windermere as an example 🤣
Yes I really liked everything on this yacht. Very nice indeed. Thanks Nick
My pleasure!
At last, normality has resumed. So pleased you are back on Sunseeker.
Thanks for explaining that you had a falling out with them. Haven't been following long so its nice to know what everyone was talking about. nice little yacht
The light flicker on the video is due to how a camera works, it doesn’t capture a continuous stream of light but a bunch of pictures a very small amount of time apart. The rate at which the camera takes these photos is called the Frames Per Second or FPS. Shooting 4k video at 60 fps details the quality of each image and the number of images taken per second. Higher fps = smoother video. The flickering (stroboscopic effect) comes in when filming LED lights/screens and such as LEDs aren’t continuously on, but flicker at their own rate (60Hz or something depending on the circuit) in order to save energy. When the FPS of the camera doesn’t line up with the flickering of the LEDs you get the flickering on video.
Wow, this is an amazing boat to re-start our journey with Sunseeker. I truly love this main deck and beach club designs. That midship galley and forward dining really work. You said something that shocked me; "If you had a water maker". Does that imply there isn't one already standard? Good job, Nick, now get us on more Sunseekers.
Water makers are always optional extras (at least until you're well past 100ft)
@@AQUAHOLIC I always assumed they were standard on these larger yachts. Thanks for the info.
