This Yacht seems to be absolutely spotless. Impossibly clean....eat off the deck perfection. Things that need help might be the flybridge access ladder, a dirtier engine room...(proving that the John Deere engines ran more than 1100 Seconds.) A few cushions to reduce glare for the Captain... P.S. Yacht Buoy: You need to slow down the video, move some things around AND open cabinets. This would prove the yacht's live aboard qualifications.. If an owner is selling a Yacht, he would probably be OK with you looking into a few things. You may need to give him/her a heads up, but it's all part of the Game. Overall: This is an Explorer Yacht at a very agreeable selling price. It will require upgrades to make it a Oceanic Explorer Yacht, though.
Hi John, that canoe stern really sets it off. As others have said it needs upgrades to refrigeration and bulk storage to make it more independent for longer trips. Otherwise its spot on. Cheers DougT
An excellent craft. I'd add solar panels, update the radar screen perhaps? And for the extravagance of the bath/jacuzzi, I'd want a watermaker... But I do like the stern shape it's a great design.
The cutest little ship I have ever seen. I just love steel canoe hulls. I'm not a fan of over sized looking speed boats. I don't usually like fly bridges but this one is compact and does not look like a pimple on a pumpkin. I would have even been happy with a single engine on this little ship. I grew up in Hull England and most of the big steel Trawlers that ventured into the North Sea only had one engine. I'm a believer in KISS.
If that 3000nm range @ 10 knots is accurate. then that is quite amazing. Dial her back to 8 knots and you're probably looking at 4000nm's. To put that in perspective, the Nordhavn 55, which is a similar length (although 40% extra displacement), has a range of 3000nm @8.25 knots....but her fuel tanks are more than double that of Rosephine. Between those fuel savings and her price to buy, Rosephine should be a serious contender.
Did we miss something? One small fridge and no freezer, on an explorer yacht? Reasonably priced and well built i would think, some hits but some misses. Thanks for the tour!
@@MS-bh3uw -- is the boat _really _*_necessary?_* Of course it is! I mean it is a tiny tub with Jacuzzi jets - looks like could be great after a difficult grind on land or ice! I was hoping for more technical area, maybe a laundry area and yes, at least two semi large freezers! Maybe the mechanical/engine room could handle some more kit? The tankage is massive though with what, about 4000L of fuel tankage - 3000NM range? Not bad, necessarily @ 10KNTs, though I could see adding way more solar and I wonder if this could benefit with some sailing rig - main mast to really extend that range (though speed may go down a few KNTs) - and folding props would work better if it were a motor sailor. 1000L for potable water, presumed water maker and generator to handle heating (cooling?) and potable water refill - though a modern _water maker_ could work in a pinch and not take up a ton of space or power. 500L back water tank, yikes! Three heads ... is nice, two cabins - turn the 3rd (maybe) into storage or technical area - done! Not bad!
Good use of space. They really got everything in there as much as they could. This would be a great cold water boat. Not so sure I would take it someplace tropical since those airvents look more suited for heat as opposed to AC cooling, but it is a smaller boat so it would probably cool down pretty well. These are the boats though I imagine going through the north sea around Norway, Greenland, Sweden and Denmark then going over the poles to make it down to Labrador off the coast of Canada
I was under the impression you were reviewing a brand new boat congrats to the current owner and the future owner. It looks like a fantastic boat, especially for the money. I wish it was here in the US I would definitely consider it.
Almost perfect. Would place a chest freeze on the flybricge. Watermaker would certainly be nice. Boat has great range but seems like to stop at land every other day for supplies.
yeah, unless you can fish and have tons of dry/canned goods! The tankage is 'uge! (NYC accent). Decent range - make it a motor sailor to double the range - add some solar and two "large" deep freezers for the long passages!
Hey John, now there's a girl after my own heart!! Perfect size, steel construction, decent range and not a too stupid price tag!!! Thanks for showing her off!!
@@YachtBuoy John I have a question for you. I recently saw an Italian yacht made by Terranova with the model T85. She's capable of trans-Atlantic crosses listing her speed at 13.5 Kn and her top speed as 17Kn She has a mini Inace look about her and looks rather intriguing provided the cost in below say 5M Euros out the door. Hope you're doing well, take care - Dave
Very charming old school flair! And everything seems to be in good shape! Some adds like solarpanels and a freezer and maybe a wingit kite system and it’s perfect!
Beautiful boat, a home from home. She looks safe like with the advantages of yhe canoe shaped sterns. The unfussy looking exterior she maybe an older boat but she got a lot of potential for how her new owner wants her to look. Same with the interior simple classy looking wood and all the catering needs you may need.
I would say the only thing missing is a water maker but given the amount of work recently done it’s probably there already and I missed it. The Dutch are great engineers and here’s another example of their expertise put to very good use.
She's a looker for sure. Was there a freezer on board? I'm just thinking that with a 3,000nm range, she's going to need more storage than the small (at least by landlubber kitchen standards) fridge in the kitchen! Also laundry?
She's a beautiful ship, but I agree with some of the other comments - if she's going to be a liveaboard explorer, I think she'd need some changes. Her range means you could be cruising for almost two weeks, but with that galley setup I don't think you'd have provisions for more than two or three days. I'd probably get rid of the dining area in the galley to put in a pantry, a freezer, and another fridge (perhaps also a chest freezer on the fly bridge). I would also badly want a washer/dryer somewhere on board. Most logical place for that would probably be where the day head is now, unless we wanted to pull that jacuzzi out and put in a more standard shower.
Need way more fridge/freezer space. Forward raked windows on the bridge would be better, but love the stern. You don't see boats with the canoe sterns anymore. To bad.
Dutch built, check ✔️. Well designed and thought out for easy functionality. I could see myself boating on the inner coastal and doing the great loop. How about island hopping in the Caribbean or Croatia? Great boat, worth every 💶 euro. Leave it the way it is.
I love this boat. Were it within my power, I would be on the phone with the broker right now. 3.45 metres is 11 feet 4 inches. Regarding the fly bridge. I loathe direct sunlight and desire travelling to rougher places where a steel hull is advantageous, like Alaska, the North sea, etc., so I see it being aerodynamically enclosed against weather.
Beautiful boat. I would have preferred a wider saloon and one less exterior walkway plus internal access to the flybridge. Do you know the make of the boat seen through the starboard windows at 6:28? Thanks for the video John!
It's now 8/24 and it still appears to be for sale, at the same price. I was just casually looking for a possible "great loop" boat. With the draft, and height, this might work. I'm not an experienced boater. What concerns me here is the top side seems to be redone, making it look nice. But, the electrics, circuit panel, original dated engines and systems below deck concern me. Even the smallish cabins/quarters below are fine, and I like the steel hull. But I don't want to buy a "project". I'm just afraid this is too much of a project for me. I would do the same thing if I were selling it. It has good bones. Best luck! Peace --gtr
A very beautiful boat but i have 5 comments. 1. Where is the fridge? 2. Where does the anchor chain go through the hull? 3. Does it have a washing machine and tumble dryer? 4. I personally think that the position of the top helm is a waste of deck space. Why not putting it in forward on the deck to utilise the whole upper deck, because if you put the dinghy on top there is no moving space and last, I cannot understand why boat builders put the master cabin forward in the hull. This is where the most movement is at sea.
Love the look, but so many drawbacks. Aft cockpit way too small for relaxing, only outdoor socializing space is on un-shaded fly bridge. Access to fly bridge is via steep ladder -- try climbing that holding a plate of sandwiches in rolly seaway! Interior is nice but only one small refrigerator is way too limited for living aboard or long cruises. I did not see two critical pieces of equipment in the engine room -- stabilizers or air conditioning compressors. That soft-bilged, canoe-stern yacht will roll gunwale to gunwale in a beam sea. No A/C limits usage to Scotland north. Enjoyed the video, but thanks but no thanks on the yacht.
I think you've found the problem She's a great little boat but thats exactly it, for a 3k mile range she has no room fo4 a decent tender, jet ski, etc for when you get to those exotic destinations...
As nice as she is, there is a long list of modifications that need to be made: Stabilizers (100k), additional cold storage and minor mods to kitchen (20k), remove day head and make laundry (15k), add water maker (8k), and the upper deck??? I don't see a way to fit anything bigger than a 10ft dinghy (10k), solar and LiFePo4 batteries (25k), the dinghy itself (20k). Swim Platform or way to board from dinghy (20k), that's a lot of work, and to make a platform look decent on a canoe stern requires more design skill than I have.
Beautiful boat. But needs more fridge and freezer space. Also not sure you can call it an explorer with a glass top cocktop that a pot will slide off on a 5 degree angle.
Does this have the range to reach Hawaii from the west coast of the USA at economical cruise accounting for reasonable weather including headwinds and chop? If a storm suddenly brewed up, should we have gotten our wills in order prior to departing?
It's okay to have a yacht that does 3000nm, to achieve that you need drinking water, fridge, freezers, dry food storage, washing machine, dryer are essential a personal preference would be an ice maker
someone kindly explain the light green e glass throughout the vessel and contrast with the dark glass seen on other boats. why this glass as opposed to the other typed of tint or smoked glass. i see this green glass almost exclusively in the UK and from there to points north and east.
Its a great looking boat and in great shape. Fly Bridge is way too far back. It needs to be moved up like 10 foot. You can barely see the bow. The stern looks cool but is a little useless if you want to go in the water. Like all Dutch ships I have seen the stateroom layout is just odd. The engine room would be nice if it was a little taller.
Some day those who design trawlers will design them with no less than 5'X7' heads with tubs/shower. Designs with space for no less than 18 cubic foot upright refrigerators.🥸

Yes a couple "massive" fridges - maybe 250L + (each) and a technical area (maybe 3rd/bunk cabin) for _repairs in _*_exotic_*_ places!_

You missed the fact that the radar arch was hinged to fold down.
Does this have the range to reach Hawaii from the west coast of the USA at economical cruise accounting for reasonable weather including headwinds and chop? If a storm suddenly brewed up, should we have gotten our wills in order prior to departing?
With lack of refrigerator and freezer space.... i guess your eating MRE's....ALOT.
But it looks like a fridge freezer. ;-)
Yea strange..very strange
Failed to see the mandatory Washing and Drying machines unless you do it at each port of call..
True, it's kinda silly to do that refit for "long term" cruising when you barely have food storage for a weekend
Spaghetti Alia e Olio 😊 who needs more?!😊
It's okay to have a yacht that does 3000nm, to achieve that you need drinking water, fridge, freezers, dry food storage, washing machine, dryer are essential a personal preference would be an ice maker

How about stabilization
looks nice, but needs more work, bigger Fridge/Freezer etc

Llosdrecht in the Netherlands 🇳🇱
I think the master bedroom dosnt get a toilet, just a sink and a bathtub

No clothes washer & dryer? Not good for passage-making

500k 1 mini fridge
Love the look and the air draft. Unfortunately I don't see any air conditioning which would keep her out of the Caribbean...shame.
it seems to have its priorities elsewhere , tough gin palace yes , explorer yacht , not really.
