Someone had an attention for fine detail all the screws on the windows and the portholes had been alined aesthetically, I like this type of added attention it bodes well.
Absolutely beautiful boat, with a clean and some upgrades together with all the brass polished it would be stunning. I could see this on Lake Como! Just a pure quality classic.
This is like the German equivalent to the ww2 British boat that the Ship Happens channel is restoring. Interesting that both the Royal Navy and the Kreigsmarine were using wooden patrol boats during the war. Nice boat!
You never cease to amaze me with these Finds. I want it to badly become it being GERMAN Naval vessel, they were built to Last 😊 the AIR start is so amazing and if you can get Air being shore or gen set. The Main will always START. The Twin bunk bed state room looks like they had many hanging bunks in the old Days.That Gally reminds me of Army vessels back in the 70s, YES said Army vessels. Was in a support Company, that had many LCM-8s as are ship to shore vessels. But the vessels we had in deep water. The Gallery was just like that. I only wish the front boom stay had a SAIL 😊❤😊❤😊
@@Seamus322 The Unit I was in was in Tacoma WA. Now an Army Reserve unit. In my time it was a support company. Lots of LCM-8s. We had an FMS, we had a heavy duty Crane to pick up LCM on dock for bottom cleaning, and fuel barge and the look alick to the Ship in Mr. Rogers the Movie. I was on ( ST-2154) 45 for a tug built in the 1950s.
They don't build boats like that anymore! I saw areas that most people would refinish. I'd leave them-adds character, and shows it's "in use", not a display item. It's well laid out. Nice tour!
I wonder how you get spare parts for this engine (inyectors, rings, etc). Also missing a diesel dayly tank. Nice vessel, a lot of work to put it back on service.😉😉
This boat reminds me of the "Louisa" from the movie "African Queen." Is the captain getting ready to hang Humphrey Bogart and Katharine Hepburn? Watch out for home-made torpedoes.
Schweet,Just saw a short video of someone with a drone somewhere up a shallow channel that videoed a derelict boat like this,appeared to have been run up there and partially sunk but stripped over the years.
Pretty sure that is all bronze. Not brass. I don't think brass would stand up to salt water. Also, it does not look like that. When bronze was invented, the naval age began.
Thanks. In the late 1970s the Belgian Sea Cadets had an old WW2 German river boat that they used, very similar to this lovely vessel.@@YachtMarineBrokerage
Near the end of the video, when he was opening the storage compartment on the outside of the starboard side, the last compartment showed a brass strip attached to the inside of the door and it had the remnants of Brasso compound on the brass which had not been wiped off. So, I would say polishing the brass would be a daily chore.
This is a beautiful boat. But I would never buy it. Wood planks on steel frame, teak deck, brass fittings, 40 year old electrics and a high maintenance old engine. The maintenance and care effort should be about the same ratio as a modern fighter jet. One hour of use, ten hours of maintenance and care. And we don't even want to talk about the wooden planking on the steel frame. At the end of the 1930s, it was no longer state of the art and clearly had problems at the joints. You can certainly imagine how much the holes and bolts between wood and steel have changed after 90 years in the sea water. Actually a miracle that a bilge pump does not have to work here constantly. A complete overhaul of the rump and the connections is certainly necessary, including a coating of the hull with GRP to protect it from saltwater in the future (or just every year in the dry dock and underwater coating check and renew, including necessary wood renovations). All in all, there are very high maintenance costs for the new owner. One can only hope that for this really beautiful yacht someone with very deep pockets and the absolute will to preserve this classic will be found. Otherwise you will see her in 10 years at the scrapyard again.
I know the owner personally, she just had a massive refit. He personally told me the electronics were all refurbished in 2017 so peronally I’d think about acquiring this beauty with some haggling 😅 or if I was liquid rn. Good luck selling the boat, good day 😊
Yeah, OP here is just acting out. It was refitted in 87 by Lurssen and he still is worried about corrosion. Brass doesn't require any maintenance btw unless you want bling. Of course it will require more maintenance than your avarage condo, but it is a beauty in my book (apart from pilot chair). The new owner will appriciate the extra needs of the girl. I especially liked the engine. Super duper low consumption, every respectable (prof but classic) river-barge has something similar @@GameDevlaund
A 78-foot boat with so little room?? Only about 5 people being cramped in there??? Hummm, I dont know about that, I'd definitely want room for at least 8 people comfortably. With such little room, everybody aboard would have to be very boat savy and be needed to help with everything going on, including docking, not very relaxing for guests. I definitely don't see any value here, theres twice the boat out there for less, the price would have to be the only selling point here. You can do a 65-foot Chris-Craft and get twice the pleasure and half the maintenance and aggravation. Whoever built this must've been able to do it cheap or they had nostalgic money to burn. This is a lobor of love and totally impractical to say the least. You'd think that at the very least it would have a modern Boston Whaler tender with a crane. This looks like it was redesigned and owned by an old stuffy German WWII ex-submarine captain or something, I see zero warmth, comfort, modern conveniences like a stereo, media entertainment or anything nice for that matter, just an over-engineered, expensive pain in the ass. Who would use this and for what?? Theres no family enjoyment happening in this vessel. I'd have to think about taking this boat for free and I'm not even joking😢

This is a GEM! I could see an inexpensive refit to bring it up , the potential of this beauty is great!

Excellent review. I enjoyed exploring this older vessel very much.
Nice old boat, thanks for sharing.

What a dream little ship!
She had definitely had lots of love over the years.
Thank you so much for sharing this one

Aesthetically pleasing, nice to float around on, but a maintenance nightmare
Yes a refit is needed but wow what potential if you redesigned the bridge and galley!
South Turkey in October looks fantastic🏖

Maintenance nightmare. Nice presentation me friend.
Just two guest cabins? No owners cabin?
That's a lot of brass to polish.
That wiring is terrifying

Sails would act as stabilisers especially with slight side breeze.

Brass! Omg maintenence!
Was she owned by the Belgian Sea Cadets for a while?
I do not have info about that...

Somebody has gone to an damaging effort to produce such a beautiful yacht. I would not want to clean the brass, is it treated?

@@philOKC Or you could just leave it the way it is
Spectacular............The Brass alone. The real Lifeboat takes up too much space, love that smoke stack.
Maybe fine for inshore cruising but insufficient freeboard for tuly open water use.
👍❤️
probably spend more time maintaining it than enjoying it
Kako see Bradco
2250 nautical miles.
Your videos have too many damn advertisements.

Yup, she's definitely not for everyone...not sure who. 490,000 euro's.

I can’t imagine a boat without modern radar with maps and AIS?
Needs a bit of work.
For an old boat it looks ok but I’m not impressed at all.
So small& congested!! Not impressive 😕
Beautiful boat - totally outdated interior and hvac, Galley looks worn, all the nav and engine monitoring is ancient, no touch screen.
No it's a vessel where you need to have to be a real sailor
@@ringo196 Real Sailors like touch screen tech 😅
