Someone who takes themselves a bit too seriously might have done a second take. I absolutely LOVE that you just rolled with it and enjoyed the smashing distraction...
I noticed that, too and thought it was an excellent touch leaving that bit of magic and friendliness in the video instead of editing it out! Before mentioning it, the scene was immediately recognizable from your house video... and the change in perspective -- perfect!
The one thing I dislike about this boat is the lack of mirrors. It means we get less Aquaholic waves 👋. This boat is seriously nice for the price. I could almost see myself living on it! Thanks for the tour Nick.
putting that heater in the engine room speaks volumes for the owner and the care that has gone into the boat ; we went round a hardy 50 at one of the boat shows in Southampton beautiful bit of kit .
My Grandmother was from Dartmouth, and I got to go visit her family there over 30 years ago. Caught crabs down by that harbour with my Great Uncle (my wife loves when I tell people that). Thanks for the boat tour and bringing back some memories.
Nick- "'That's the steam train" Me- Immediately starts a comment asking if that's the one that trundels by the house that was recently showcased. Nick- Reads my mind.
The coloring on the outer hull of this Hardy is beautiful. The helm is excellent with the suspension seats (usually see those in over the road haulers) and its general layout; small, efficient and has the perfect cup holders for my mug of coffee and some water. Now this is a boat (even from 2007) that I’d buy if that were possible. Another great Aquaholic style video!
I can't even afford a house let alone a boat, but I still find myself clicking on every single new video Aquaholic posts and watching the whole tour! Another great vid.
Wow! a mini SPADA Nick? £425,000 ... Hmmm, if I sell the house, and the cars, and the Caravan, and the motorbike, and Mrs goes on the game ... Er, I still won't have enough ... Humpf. But thanks for the tour!
I really love this kind of ships, it screams "let's go there and everywhere " and not wait for favourable weather conditions in the marinas. The two chart tables make it clear that this is not a typical leisure yacht. And again an excellent review that only can be done by Aquaholic. A good and interesting review is not only about summarizing the specs, performance and details. There is much more than that in boating, and you show that with a little trainspotting. !
I’ve watched all your videos and as soon as I heard the train whistle I knew it was from one of you previous video about that home. I love how you showed the train too instead of deleting it.
Hardy by name, Hardy by nature. Love this Trawler ticks all the boxes for me. Proper craftmanship, Interior doesn't look like its come from a flat pack, classic lines, just beautiful. Thanks for the vid Nick, Awesome.
Now this is a boat. Seaworthy, practical and strong. Cat A. My kind of boat. I don't really get on with the opulance of the super yachts so I just love this. All I need is half a million quid. Sigh!
I can't afford a house, let alone a boat, or even a car, (at the moment) but if i were to receive a lump sum of serious money, this boat/ship/yacht would be my retirement home. Go see the world, and enjoy my journey to get there. Love bit of kit indeed. Absolutely love it, and very practical for the "what's the weather like, who cares, I'm gone" type of sailor. I want it. Thanks Nick for a lovely tour. 😉
The only thing I didn't catch in this (if you mentioned it) was an idea of the range? What I love seeing most is the explorer and live-aboard boats, so this Hardy 50 was right up my alley, just like the gorgeous Nordhavns are. But, of course, this one didn't seem as well equipped for duration away from port as many of the Nordhavn vessels, (I always notice their extra capacity for supplies and freezers), so I'm imagining that the fuel capacity and thus range was also lesser? Keep up the excellent work. Your channel has been an absolute godsend this year. Vicariously exploring boats and dreaming of exploring the world living aboard a boat has been the perfect antidote to isolation and social distancing, so thank you. Your videos have helped keep me sane (or at least less insane than otherwise) when cabin fever strikes.
Love it, love it. The older ones have all the charm and character. You could imagine reading a book or watching an old movie in the living area on a rainy Afternoon.
Oh no, what a beautiful ol`school Yacht. I get down on my knees, by this beauty, so very much wonderful! Fore this 425K´s is it almost a gift. Spezial thanks 2 you mate for the explanation this beauty♥ Was a couple of weeks in Australia, much 2 do there, smile. They don`t whant me with 59 years to live there.
Nick, you are a gem of a human. The anometer or whatever it was you were pointing out cracked me up...I have no idea what it is, but you're the person that always points that stuff out, and I'm so happy you do. EASILY one of the best channels on youtube in my opinion.
I Think I'm inlooove. Can't believe i missed this video. I was under the impression I've seen all of you're uploads. This boat is just great. Out of all the "the little ship feels" this is by far the best, if you ask me.
Every time I think I might have been converted to something fast and more "showy", a video with a boat like this or a Nordhavn comes on and I'm de-converted. The idea of a boat you can fuel up, stock with supplies, then just sail away for months on end is extremely appealing. And this one goes like the Millennium Falcon by trawler yacht standards too!
wow , what a beauty , that's my kind of boat , old but beautiful, & still looks elegant , & looks a very strong boat too . nice to hear & see the steam train , brilliant . 👍 😉
That's how he gets access to all those superyachts. His manners are impeccable, and he is just an all-around nice man who seems to have a positive outlook and enjoys what he does.
Absolutely brilliant blue water boat! So versatile and perfectly liveable on for extended periods! Loved the steam train and steam boat interludes too! Lovely part of the country.
My kind of boat..... The weather isn't always good and this is the any time of the year boat. Great walk through Nick and good to D see the steam train too 👍👍👍
Absolutely love this boat, and it isn’t too expensive (for a 50 footer)!! Also it’s amazing that you are able to get this many tours in these times 😀. Thank you!
A Few Thoughts: Dammit Nick... Where has this gem been hiding? I thought I had seen ALL of yours, but NO...! I've been coming to the realization that I like trawlers. A lot. And the comes the beauty with the worst boat name ever. EVER. And I love her! This is "the one". I could retire on her. Live on her. Entertain on her. And she's a 50 footer Nick...! The biggest craft I've had the pleasure of enjoying is a 52 footer, and I swear it was HALF the size/accommodations of this slice of heaven. I want THIS boat so when the weather sucks, my other yachting pals will say "Terrible weather... Let's call Dave - you KNOW he'll be going out...!" Your tours are like epic cinema... I have to watch them all THREE times - just so I catch all the nuances. If ever there was a boat that I wanted to see a sea trail for... This is it...! 30 friggin' knots...?!? This does NOT look like a 30 knot boat Nick...! The Main Saloon/Helm - Yeah... What a damned design...! The ultimate owner/operator...! No high gloss "show boat shit"... Just classy purposefulness. It doesn't have to be shiny to portray "quality", as you put it. I think understated speaks volumes... What the hell excuse for a TV pops up out of that tinny little cubby...?!? Why didn't they forsake the storage cabinet (left) and drop a 40" in there? SMFH The Aft Master Cabin is what I'm all about... Friggin' PERFECT...! (And why I could reside on this craft) The Galley - Again... Perfect...! I can whip up 4-star cuisine in that galley, not for four... but for SIX...! Thanks to a brilliant use of space for a FIFTY FOOT BOAT...! The Engine Room - Okay... You're not going to stand in it. You ARE going to pay someone else to service those badass beasts under the hood...! As usual... Brilliant tour Nick...! Cheer Mate...!
Since discovering your channel some time back in January, I've come to enjoy the variety of boats and yachts you show us here. I know I'll never be able to afford any of these yachts, but it's still awesome to get to see them inside and out. Having said all that, this yacht is truly different from ones you've toured in the past, but still clearly very well-maintained by the owners. I don't know what it is, but the wood, the light carpet and the dark blue pillows all seem to compliment each other perfectly. On that note, stay safe Nick, and I'll look forward to seein' you again in the next tour video.
Can`t sleep, was really peed off until I logged and YES another Aquaholic production. Thankyou Admiral Nick, brilliant. Love the Royal waves you do! Love this little ship, looks extremely well cared for and a steal of a price. Until the next one, thankyou very much indeed.
couldn’t had enough yacht tour videos, you’re absolutely the perfect man for the job. Your video is indeed the most interesting one to watch for buying references. I can’t find any yacht review videos that are as thorough as yours. keep up the great work :)
Hi Nick , have seen a lot of your videos with new yachts and they are very nice looking yachts , but the more i see the older style yachts , the more i like it .The older ones has so much more character inside and out . Yes , i really love this one !!
Oops, steam train! I love how genuine you are and explain the sound in the background. Lovely. And this is a lovely boat and affordable. Would be a perfect boat for "normal" people. :)
@@AQUAHOLIC You are the #1 videographer for yachts. How could I not like it? We do need to get you on some extremely large vessels though. I won't mention names, but when I watch other channels they do not compare, and quite honestly they confuse me and make me fall asleep.
Great again Nick. I just love these more traditional craft. You'll now be having people wanting you to ride the train and point out the sights of interest on the way.
Oh helloo. Wot, getting bored of canals already? I love how all boating people stick together, even though they sail ⛵ in different crafts. All the best to you. Keep safe. Will keep watching your channel also.
Thank you for the tour Nick. That is one serious, fantastic and immaculate vessel. Moored in one of the most wonderful UK locations. Have done the round robin trip steam train to Paignton, bus to Totnes and river boat back to Dartmouth. Takes a while but well worth it.
Thanks for the tour Nick. .. What a seriously good looking vessel. She's been well cared for down the years as you've pointed out... really enjoyed the look around. 😉
Absolutely without a doubt my favourite boat! The timber inside made it feel a bit dated, but I wouldn't care. I fell in love as soon as I saw the outside...I've been waiting for something like this and you haven't disappointed as always. Thank you so much.....mind running the engines for 10 minutes would empty my bank account, hehe.
Pasiphae!...your presentation style is much more fluid now. :) Also found this, must be terrifying to see this thing coming at you like a gun boat! th-cam.com/video/C22CoV2Gzj0/w-d-xo.html
Many memories of riding on that train from family holidays in Dartmouth. As lovely as all of the luxury yachts are, there's a rugged charm that boats like this Hardy exude. Somehow I think I'd enjoy owning this Hardy more than a Sunseeker of the same size.
That bit with the train made me smile - your passion for boating and trains is heartwarming and really cool to see :)
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@AQUAHOLIC Steamaholic channel coming up! ;-)
Had me yelling at the screen, uhh I wanna see a train, glad you delivered.
@@AQUAHOLIC steamholic
I haven’t seen a steam train many times, but I love them
Someone who takes themselves a bit too seriously might have done a second take. I absolutely LOVE that you just rolled with it and enjoyed the smashing distraction...
It was great! Love how genuine he is. Go with the flow. :)
I noticed that, too and thought it was an excellent touch leaving that bit of magic and friendliness in the video instead of editing it out! Before mentioning it, the scene was immediately recognizable from your house video... and the change in perspective -- perfect!
The one thing I dislike about this boat is the lack of mirrors. It means we get less Aquaholic waves 👋.
This boat is seriously nice for the price. I could almost see myself living on it! Thanks for the tour Nick.
Iive where? Mooring it costs how much
Now that you mention it Ethan, I don't think I've seen any rear view or side wing mirrors on any of the yachts that Aquaholic has show cased. xD
4:48 is one! Made me smile
putting that heater in the engine room speaks volumes for the owner and the care that has gone into the boat ; we went round a hardy 50 at one of the boat shows in Southampton beautiful bit of kit .
I wait for the finger wave in every video when passing a mirror just right. Makes me smile every time.
I don't own nor do I ever plan on owning a yacht, but I probably spend more time watching your videos than any others. Thank you and keep it up
Great to hear!
Why not tho??
Me too! Watch all of your vlogs Nick.Keep up the good work.
Always nice to open youtube to be greeted with a new aquaholic video.
My Grandmother was from Dartmouth, and I got to go visit her family there over 30 years ago. Caught crabs down by that harbour with my Great Uncle (my wife loves when I tell people that). Thanks for the boat tour and bringing back some memories.
Check out my River Dart walk video! :)
What a treat. That’s so cool you got to see the steam train.
Nick- "'That's the steam train"
Me- Immediately starts a comment asking if that's the one that trundels by the house that was recently showcased.
Nick- Reads my mind.
You are not alone with this... *same here* 😆
I'm in love with this boat!
What a lovely vessel, nicely Grand Banks-esque.. I really do like the internal F/B stairs, something I wish I had on my boat.
Got a classic style Grand Banks coming soon!
@@AQUAHOLIC really..very much look forward to that!
When you talk about going away on this for a few months, I'm like, oh no, I'll go away on this for the rest of my life!
Always convenient to have an internal ladder to the fly bridge. Love the woodwork with the blue accents, very shipshape.
That marina looks beautiful! Always love to see a hardy! 👍
It really is!
Now that's a proper yacht. Thank you for the tour.
There's been lots of luxury lately but this what I like, real deal ocean cruisers. looking forward to the next Nordhaven
The coloring on the outer hull of this Hardy is beautiful. The helm is excellent with the suspension seats (usually see those in over the road haulers) and its general layout; small, efficient and has the perfect cup holders for my mug of coffee and some water. Now this is a boat (even from 2007) that I’d buy if that were possible. Another great Aquaholic style video!
Glad you like it!
I can't even afford a house let alone a boat, but I still find myself clicking on every single new video Aquaholic posts and watching the whole tour! Another great vid.
Glad you like them!
Same here :) !
The boatiest of boaty boats! What a beauty, i need 425,000 quid now. Thank you for the lovely tour and greetings from Poland, Nick!
Hey there Poland!
I'm glad you showed the train
Seeing and hearing the lovely steam train was an unexpected bonus. Thanks!
Wow! a mini SPADA Nick? £425,000 ...
Hmmm, if I sell the house, and the cars, and the Caravan, and the motorbike, and Mrs goes on the game ...
Er, I still won't have enough ... Humpf. But thanks for the tour!
This is the type of boat I'd buy if I win the lottery - another great video Nick, thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it

I love the trawler style boats. This one has been maintained and cared for very well it looks like.
Love those Hardy's, elegant yet purposeful, like the nordhavns
I can't afford a house, let alone a boat, or even a car, (at the moment) but if i were to receive a lump sum of serious money, this boat/ship/yacht would be my retirement home.

LOVE this boat. The design and layout is wonderful
There we go Nick, a nice hefty boat. 6 knots all day, half way round the world.

A real machine.Well done for showing it.
Some of the charms of these videos, is Nick showing other nice things that happen to pass/drive/float by.
Love it, love it. The older ones have all the charm and character. You could imagine reading a book or watching an old movie in the living area on a rainy Afternoon.
It's amazing that this channel has managed to keep uploading brilliant content during the current times. Keep up the great work!
Thanks, will do!
When it comes to serious boating, there's nothing like a trawler.
I think I urgently need to visit this idyll.
Beautiful, the place to be.
Check out my Kingswear walking tour
Very solid boat..one of the best that is presented on this chanel ..ocean crosser ...loved it!!simple and practical!
Oh no, what a beautiful ol`school Yacht. I get down on my knees, by this beauty, so very much wonderful! Fore this 425K´s is it almost a gift. Spezial thanks 2 you mate for the explanation this beauty♥
Was a couple of weeks in Australia, much 2 do there, smile. They don`t whant me with 59 years to live there.

I Think I'm inlooove. Can't believe i missed this video. I was under the impression I've seen all of you're uploads. This boat is just great. Out of all the "the little ship feels" this is by far the best, if you ask me.
"That's is a steam train. Do you want to see a steam train? 'Course you do, who wouldn't?"
The man knows his audience.
I love these shiplike boats, way better than some modern sportyachts
Every time I think I might have been converted to something fast and more "showy", a video with a boat like this or a Nordhavn comes on and I'm de-converted. The idea of a boat you can fuel up, stock with supplies, then just sail away for months on end is extremely appealing. And this one goes like the Millennium Falcon by trawler yacht standards too!
One word describes this boat for me, "Class". What a truly beautiful boat. Lovely high back lounge in the Saloon area which you don't often see.
The Princess beside you man.... thing of beauty, love those boats. Cheers Nick for a great review
Princess 55 I believe - a full tour of one on AQUAHOLIC of course!
wow , what a beauty , that's my kind of boat , old but beautiful, & still looks elegant , & looks a very strong boat too . nice to hear & see the steam train , brilliant . 👍 😉
I was thinking.....oh, a wonderful little slow speed cruising boat......goes up to 30 knotes......ups. Hahaha
I can't get over how nice and polite he is
That's how he gets access to all those superyachts. His manners are impeccable, and he is just an all-around nice man who seems to have a positive outlook and enjoys what he does.
I always love this the trawlers and classic boat vibes they have!
Now that’s a proper boat. Thank you. John

I actually fell in love with this boat, but I don't think I ever would have if not for you. Thanks for the amazing vid Nick!
My pleasure!
This is one of the nicest layouts I've seen of this style boat. Love how open it all is.
Great review, again! Beautiful boat. At one point I was waiting for you to say "but wait, there's more!".
What a beautiful boat man i absolutely adore this ship. She is pure joy for any man. Man i want to sail the world in this boat.
I never thought I would like a boat like that until you gave the walk around! 👏✌️
I always love trawlers, thanks Nick
Always rated Hardy there is a distinct shape to the hulls. Another solid one very seaworthy and comfortable liveaboard.

Now that’s my kind of boat. Beautiful.
I love these types of boats, very unique and homey. I think I like these 50’ to 60’ better than the 100’+ ships.
Well, geez, now I want a tour of the steam train _and_ the steam boat! This is definitely a boat for someone who isn't afraid of rough weather. :)
Ha ha ha...the enthusiasm of hearing a steam locomotive! I love it...I would totally run to see that also.
Two outta three ain't bad !! I LOVE these boats and those trains ! Only missing the airplane !

Glad you like them!
A beautiful boat or rather, as you say, a small ship. Perfect for exploring the west coast of Scotland.
I love these videos. Your channel has gotten me to binge watch tours and I'm not even a person who likes water much. Keep up the great work!
Thank you! Will do!
Hi Nick , have seen a lot of your videos with new yachts and they are very nice looking yachts , but the more i see the older style yachts , the more i like it .The older ones has so much more character inside and out . Yes , i really love this one !!
:-) almost 200k fans/followers! Finger crossed to reach this next goal!
Only 19k left!
Wish you 200k in 3 weeks from now ;-)
Thank you! :)
my favorite yacht tour
Hardy is a solid brand, stands out because of the amount of features they got into that boat to make it feel much larger than you would think.
Really Proper !! I noticed there were NO squeaky floors !! Great little " fast trawler" !
Oops, steam train! I love how genuine you are and explain the sound in the background. Lovely. And this is a lovely boat and affordable. Would be a perfect boat for "normal" people. :)
So glad I didn’t miss this one. A truly unique boat & tour. Great job

Great to see you're sponsored!
Wonderful presentation amd a great boat as always
