I was just about to say the same thing. The idea behind them is really cool. I am actually convinced that this TH-cam channel forms part of my top five channels.
What a thoroughly nice chap, really enthusiastic about his boat and what a beauty she is. Nice to see he is self made and is enjoying the fruits of his labours. Great video nick this is a great series you do " meet the owners" keep it up.
Nick another great video. I have to say that Stephan helped a lot. He is such a wonderful person, simple in the communication, direct and nothing presumptuous. I give you a ten outot ten
This is far and away my favorite boat tour format. I love seeing the boat shown by the owner themselves and hearing first hand what they like about the layout and features. The story time afterwards is always fun to listen to as well.
I really love your "Meet the Owner" series. It's so great to see owners proudly show off their babies and your genuine enthusiasm to see them. Cheers from Canada, Nick!
What a lovely bloke Stephen is, so hospitable and a true gentleman at that. His boat is a credit to himself and his family and I’m sure they’ll have many happy years with her. Fantastic series and a wonderful format, keep it up. 👍🏻
Thanks a bunch Nick for an excellent meet the owner. Stephen the consummate host morphs into that gorgeous Fairline where ever he stands to chat. What a wonderful tour! Lovely also to see a thriving family business in this day and age and wish Stephen every success.
Well this was just fab. Steven and his boat was a great addition to the meet the owner list. The more I see Fairline boats the more I am loving them. Thanks as always Nick and thank you Steven for showing us around.
Again seems to be a really genuine guy who’s done well and bought himself a really beautiful boat. Although it’s a few years old looks really great spec and he’s obviously not afraid to use it. Great tour again Nick. I’m still waiting till I win the lottery and you can come and film my boat.
Lovely to see Fairlines of that era, they were making superb boats then - and they are again now. Love that cherry and swoopy curves. Owner comes across as a top bloke too.
Love the interview style show and what a great guest (and boat). I’ll never own a boat like that so hearing real people with real lives talking about them passionately but also down to earth is refreshing.
Thank you Steven for sharing your boat and experiences with us. Really like the 50’ interior, great living spaces and all the features one Would need That was a very nice interview Nick, everybody loves Aquaholic!
Fairline boats never cease to amaze. Quality, clever layout, solid equipment and the always enjoyable Fairline "hidden spaces". BONUS - nice chat as well. Interesting fellow with a pretty nice life. Makes me happy to see stories like this - hard worker does well and enjoys his "reward" - a boat . Not for show either, but for USE. Thanks Nick and Stephen. BTW - Irony? He's a Fairline owner at present with his manufacturing company based at the Sunseeker "lot" - just me? No. That is funny.
Lovely boat and really nice owner too. Why do boat owners always seem such decent, chilled out and relaxed people. I'm new to boats and loving watching your tours. Great video Nick, thank you 👍👍😊😊
Another great easy watching video. Love these meet the owners series, Nick’s a natural, just simply 2 guys having a chat on the back of a boat. Stephen seems a great bloke which adds to the enjoyment 👍
Hi there, a fantastic video a really lovely boat and what a nice guy. And it's obvious that he absolutely loves his new boat I'm guessing the trips he's going to take we fantastic..cheers Phil
A Few Thoughts: The Meet The Owner series is by far your most entertaining segements Nick, especially judjing by the comments. Without a doubt - my personal favorites... Stephen's such an pleasant, engaging gentleman, and tryly uses his boat - often...! I see boats here in Florida that people don't use for weeks and even months at a time. Not this guy, he enjoys the fruits of his labor, and deservedly so. Solid guy. I have a general dislike of high-gloss finishes, but on this boat - it just works. When your kids are in their 30's (as is one of mine) they're not running their grubby snot-nosed fingers over everything like a 5 year old. The beautiful woodwork, coupled with sexy lines give the main saloon a really classy, yet very usable feel. I would really LOVE to have seen the storage cupboards opened... C'mon Stephen - you're a fan, you know the policy... "All Access" means all bloody access sir...! "The flybridge, the main deck, the cabins, the engine room - the LOT..." Open the damned cupboards Stephen...! (Ribbing ya mate!) Having never experienced a shower on a yacht I truly wouldn't know, but Stephen confirms my thoughts on tight shower confines. I listened 3 times, but I couldn't understand Stephen's "chicken comment"... That lazarette is not a 'mess'... That's the way a boat that's utilized looks..! Okay - clearly we need to do a "Meet The Owner Sea Trial" where the two of you take this beauty out for a spin...! No - seriously!!! Again... Thanks to both of you! Nick... More of these please sir. Cheers mate!
Another thumbs up for ‘Meeting The Owner” 👍 A fabulous boat, it’s got everything, decent engines, great layout and in such nice condition. And what a super guy Steven is. Many thanks to both of you for the tour 😁
Beautiful and well cared for yacht. The owner looks like a very nice chap and I like the fact the boat is in use even if its not taken out all the time. Pretty much how I would have done it. Cheers Nick.
What a channel, and fantastic boat owner. Only stumbled accross this channel looking to buy my first boat with a budget of 10k with the plan of convincing the wife that we need a family boat.
Hi Nick and Stephen. Fairline build fantastic yachts. Well balanced on the plain. In immaculate condition and a very proud owner. Very family friendly. Awesome video thanks 😊
A fantastic 'meet the owner' tour, these are fast becoming my favourite postings Nick. Really interesting on where owners like to motor/cruise and itineraries, understanding capabilities of the vessel featured and how they use it. Decisions (and compromises) that have been made along the way! It gives a real life perspective. Thanks to Stephen (& his family) for allowing us onboard your fantastic boat and for a very engaging tour. PS. I think I will be giving you a call re Spas!
That oozes style, beautifully put together with that gorgeous high gloss wood. Stephen seems a nice bloke, there’s plenty in boating that aren’t, but he seems sound. You can hear the enthusiasm in his voice for his boat, rightly so.
Nick, I watch your channel most days have watched some videos multiple times because I enjoy them so much. I see you are down in my neck of the woods quite often (Plymouth). Just wanted to take a moment to congratulate you on your channel, I get so much pleasure from watching it. I love this video with Stephen, a fantastic boat and amazing owner who seems like a great guy. Keep on doing the amazing job that you do of entertaining us and bringing joy to those that watch you.
Great boat - you can see how well it fits the family’s needs. More than that - great to hear that she’ll be seeing some use and putting some waves beneath her hull! :)
What a lovely chap & a beautiful boat too! If I can make a suggestion for that storage area, I would go for perhaps a full height wine cellar with cigar humidor opposite & replace the carpeted panel with glass so you can see the goodies below! Great interview Nick, enjoyed that! 👍🏻
Great video Nick & Stephen seems like the kind of host who welcomes you aboard with a cool beverage for a wonderful chat. Very interesting gentleman. 👍👍
Last time I was this late I dind't know they had all Queen concert bootlegs on youtube. Took a long time to watch those. Nice boat, that era and just doing some work seems to net you way more value for money, and a great tour and chat you two.
Nice boat.. Nice guy... The 50 looks bigger inside than I gave it credit for with all the extra storage space.. Another great instalment of meet the owner
Fantastic ! Stephen seems like a really great guy! Love how nick was “wondering around the marina” too! Hopefully we will be joining you in Torquay in the next 6 months - struggling for anything bigger than a 12m birth there at the moment though!
My favorite vids are these ones Nick! A princess 56 that you did owner video on would be perfect for this fine gentlemen! Aft saloon with tv and forward galley and dianette! It's what I call the perfect size vessel with fantastic layout and space! Because he has cockpit heating he should put the dining table in aft cockpit and take the table out of saloon so its not a saloon/dianette in one! It will open up the space and make it feel more spacious! Great vid thanks to you both! Happy sailing all 🛥⚓
Stephen's boat is a lovely bit of kit, as he says it's all we need atm. But it's the same old adage "what if" and "should we" go a little bigger perhaps. Yes I think he has got the boating bug when it comes to using his boat as home from home as well as a craft to go places in nick.
Looks so nice - you call tell the owners take great care of this boat. Some boats looks really dated after 15+ years, this thing is just as nice as the 2021 boats with more of a timeless look.
I really enjoy a ‘ meet the owner’ video, you get some really nice down to earth people like Steve, considering that 50 is over a decade old she’s in beautiful condition, I love the layout of the interior, it looks massive. Nice1 Nick. 😉👍
Love these "meet the owner" videos. Stephen is rightly proud of his boat and clearly enjoys sharing her with Nick (and us). Many thanks.
I was just about to say the same thing. The idea behind them is really cool. I am actually convinced that this TH-cam channel forms part of my top five channels.
Love hearing from successful guys like this. Backbone of Britain.
Stephan comes across as a lovely bloke. He’d make a great host on his boat..
I love these “meet the owner” vlogs, interesting people and interesting boats, please keep them coming
Thanks! Will do!
I don’t know what I expected from this - but wasn’t it lovely how utterly thrilled he is with his boat! Properly proud.
I do like a boat with a little hidden surprise. That downstairs storage is great.
Another nice tour. Thank you
Our pleasure!
Very well thought out
To be honest, I thought the hidden storage unit was access to the engine at first. Only to find a cool surprise.
What a really nice guy. Certainly not up himself in anyway, very genuine man.
What a thoroughly nice chap, really enthusiastic about his boat and what a beauty she is. Nice to see he is self made and is enjoying the fruits of his labours. Great video nick this is a great series you do " meet the owners" keep it up.
Thank you kindly
Nick another great video.
I have to say that Stephan helped a lot. He is such a wonderful person, simple in the communication, direct and nothing presumptuous. I give you a ten outot ten
Great to see and hear an owner who comes across as a decent ordinary(no offence meant) bloke who appreciates what he has..
This is far and away my favorite boat tour format. I love seeing the boat shown by the owner themselves and hearing first hand what they like about the layout and features. The story time afterwards is always fun to listen to as well.
Glad you enjoyed it!
That's one man that's proud of his boat and loves everything that goes with it. Well done on all your achievements in life 👌
Love the meet the owner videos,it nice to hear and see the actual owners and listen to their seafaring tales!
More to come!
I really love your "Meet the Owner" series. It's so great to see owners proudly show off their babies and your genuine enthusiasm to see them. Cheers from Canada, Nick!
What a lovely bloke Stephen is, so hospitable and a true gentleman at that. His boat is a credit to himself and his family and I’m sure they’ll have many happy years with her. Fantastic series and a wonderful format, keep it up. 👍🏻
Fantastic video and interview Nick
Would you please thank Stephen from all of us, for showing us round his fantastic boat.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍😀
Glad you enjoyed it
Very nice boat. Very nice gentleman to share so much. But I missed seeing the galley. I would be thrilled to have one like this.
He was stood at it
It is nice to see a really genuine chap so successful what a beautiful boat, Nick you are doing a wonderful job and so interesting.
This gentleman has a lovely boat and is really engaging to listen to. He also has an incredible sock/shoe tanline, to be applauded!
Thanks a bunch Nick for an excellent meet the owner. Stephen the consummate host morphs into that gorgeous Fairline where ever he stands to chat. What a wonderful tour! Lovely also to see a thriving family business in this day and age and wish Stephen every success.
Glad you enjoyed it
Well he came across as a genuinely nice fella!
Well this was just fab. Steven and his boat was a great addition to the meet the owner list.
The more I see Fairline boats the more I am loving them.
Thanks as always Nick and thank you Steven for showing us around.
Glad you enjoyed it
What a nice guy. Always great to see a decent person that is enjoying the success they’ve built. This came across really well. I now want a boat!
Again seems to be a really genuine guy who’s done well and bought himself a really beautiful boat. Although it’s a few years old looks really great spec and he’s obviously not afraid to use it. Great tour again Nick. I’m still waiting till I win the lottery and you can come and film my boat.
Lovely to see Fairlines of that era, they were making superb boats then - and they are again now. Love that cherry and swoopy curves.
Owner comes across as a top bloke too.
Lovely gentleman owner. Good tour, good boat.
Now that's a man who loves his boat. Stephen seems like a really nice guy, Thanks for showing us your boat!
I get the feeling this chap is very happy with this boat nice chap too👍👍
A great boat and the owner seems like a genuine self made guy, always nice to see in a world of austerity.
Two Dashing Guys together... wonderful Boat and thanks for sharing the such a wonderful experience..
Love the interview style show and what a great guest (and boat). I’ll never own a boat like that so hearing real people with real lives talking about them passionately but also down to earth is refreshing.
Stephen comes across as a genuine, decent bloke, complete opposite to an obnoxious show off. Great video! 👍👍👍👍👍
One of the best 15- or so year old english boats I have seen. Great with the galley up!
Thank you Steven for sharing your boat and experiences with us.
Really like the 50’ interior, great living spaces and all the features one
Would need
That was a very nice interview Nick, everybody loves Aquaholic!

And... He supplies Sunseeker with his Hit tubs...!
Thank you, Nick for showing the ownership side of boating.
Another great Meet The Owner!
Thank you both for the video!
JACUZZIIIIII!!!!

Cannot wait for my dinner break now to watch this in work👍
The more Meet the owners videos I see, the more I like them. Thank you Nick!
My pleasure!
I’d keep my shades on too if this was my boat. Seemed a lovely chap. Thank you for showing us round. Thanks Nick.
Respect Stephen & Jenny 🏆🛳 thanks for the hospitality - great vibe Nick 😎
One of the best videos by far & the owner an absolute Diamond, good luck fella.
Glad you enjoyed it
@@AQUAHOLIC Honestly tops any other subject, I need a boat not a sports car, escape with the family, Thank you.
Since watching these vids I’ve come to the conclusion that all boat people are great 👍
It's true, we are! 😃

Beautiful and well cared for yacht. The owner looks like a very nice chap and I like the fact the boat is in use even if its not taken out all the time. Pretty much how I would have done it. Cheers Nick.
Please give us more meet the owner!could watch it all day 😜

What a channel, and fantastic boat owner. Only stumbled accross this channel looking to buy my first boat with a budget of 10k with the plan of convincing the wife that we need a family boat.
Welcome aboard!
Nice boat, nice tour and lovely discussion between 2 nice blokes.
Hi Nick and Stephen. Fairline build fantastic yachts. Well balanced on the plain. In immaculate condition and a very proud owner. Very family friendly. Awesome video thanks 😊

Beautiful boat 👍we have its baby brother the Phantom 40 arrived on our finger at the marina and it does turn my head every time I walk past 👀😍🥰

Enjoyable video. He seems like a decent guy and grateful for what he has
These owner interviews are great! Very enjoyable along with all your other videos. Love the channel. Hello from Chicago USA.
Hey there Chicago! :)
Love these owner videos. And love that they come from around the south 👍👍
Top man worked hard and reaping the rewards. Respect ✊🏼
Super nice guy with pride in his boat .. good to see
What a thoroughly nice chap. Great interview and a great boat 👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed it
That oozes style, beautifully put together with that gorgeous high gloss wood.

Superb, I never get bored of these. Lovely boat, clearly charismatic down to earth owner and inspiration for us aspiring future boat owners 👏
I agree with the owner that's just about perfect for him and his family, it's got loads of space enough sleeping areas great boat that nick
The first yacht owner that speaks my mind with regards to boat versus house . Exactly my reasoning to one day buy a yacht to live aboard .
Great boat - you can see how well it fits the family’s needs. More than that - great to hear that she’ll be seeing some use and putting some waves beneath her hull! :)
What an awsome man really talked and gave much info about the boat in and around having it Much appreciated! This was fantastic video!
Meet the Owner are my favourites of your videos, another great interview and Yacht Tour
Awesome, thank you!
What a lovely chap & a beautiful boat too! If I can make a suggestion for that storage area, I would go for perhaps a full height wine cellar with cigar humidor opposite & replace the carpeted panel with glass so you can see the goodies below! Great interview Nick, enjoyed that! 👍🏻

Love these tours and talks. Ouze enthusiasm. With a shout out to the good old Joseph Conrad (Spoons) in Lowestoft!
Glad you like them!
Thanks Stephen, from New York
Another great meet the owner episode. Great boat for a family to enjoy. Thanks for posting. 🇳🇿🇳🇿
Glad you enjoyed it
Nice guy - we need more entrepreneurs like him! Lovely boat and a great video!

Always nice to watch :) The more I watch of these videos the more I get interested in owning one
I think these are now my favourite series neck what a beautiful boat and what a really enjoyable Guy thanks for sharing 👍🇨🇦
Our pleasure!
@@AQUAHOLIC thanks Neck 😂 stupid spell check
Lovely little boat.
I really enjoy a ‘ meet the owner’ video, you get some really nice down to earth people like Steve, considering that 50 is over a decade old she’s in beautiful condition, I love the layout of the interior, it looks massive. Nice1 Nick. 😉👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Captivating interview, absolutely lovely boat and manufacturers need to take note of how quickly that TV emerged from its parking space. 👍😁🇬🇧❤️
Great tour, great boat, great host and great guide! Thanks so much!
