Brilliant! I could’ve watched a few hours of that, James. And was that Sharon I saw dancing? Didn’t see JP, I guess he was propping up the bar with you 👍
You’re such a great salesman, and your videos really accomplish what they’re meant to… my want for a boat of similar size to use around the Balearics just rise and rise… well done and many thanks for Your personal and relaxed sharing! 😄
@@Boatscouk and ice makers? You see I listen. Jokes aside, great viewing and content, I am bias as someone planning to med boat but think the authenticity of the channel is spot on
Hi James, a nice day trip from Ciutadella to Cala D'Or in calm seas. I would not like anyone to think that they could actually run a 60 foot power boat in Mallorca for only €45,000 - €50,000 a year.......the actual costs (excluding capital cost and depreciation) will be €70 / €80,000 per year when you add in insurance, annual haul out , hull cleaning and re antifouling, servicing the main , engines & generator, gardienage etc and before fuel at around €375 / hour. Add in a bit for depreciation and you are soon looking at €200,000 minium per year. Kind regards, John A, boating in Mallorca for more than 40 years. PS You can buy a nice second hand live aboard boat for under €100,000 and "only" spend €20 / 25,000 / year and have just as much fun☺
@@Boatscouk Glad to hear it, I imagine it's a good feeling. I did my school work experience week with Princess in Plymouth and went out on a full speed sea trial on a 60-70 footer, was awesome, like a palace that can fly :)
Great video. Nothing worse than the saloon doors chattering between the ears.😄 Activated charcoal tablets are effective for absorbing the nasties from the night before. Generally used for controlling the body's bilge pump after a dodgy Kebab, but best not taken close to any medication or headache remedies as it tends to render them less effective. I'll probably be in a similar state of dishevelment next week after a whiskey tasting event I'm going to. 😵 Once every so often is allowed. Once the missus can lie you on a skate board and push you home your quids in!
Thank you for demonstration. Qlso, BMW M, Rolex and great sense of humor means you are man of taste and we would get along great. Also, Spain is of their minds with those prices of berth. It is about 10 times cheaper here in Croatia and our coast is much nicer.
Wanna hear a crazy jet ski story? When I was a deckhand on a Benetti 125, good size yacht, we had a guy in a jet ski come out and run up next to the yacht and he took an empty beet can and some gum and stuck the can to the side of the yacht. So we radioed the harbormaster because obviously we could have killed him because we actually thought we ran over him, so when the Marina Provizianal showed up and asked him what he was doing, he said that he was simulating attaching a limpet mine to the hull of a fast attack frigate. Obviously he was drunk, but just 6 years prior to that, thats what happened to the USS Cole in a way. We also had a jet ski try to 'wake surf' us and they got caught up too close when we cut the engines and she rode right up onto our swim deck, and in another incident in France, the owner's girlfriend liked to tan au naturale. Well some people on ski's next to us saw her walking around the deck and they went back to get their big ol VHS camcorder (remember those?) and they were both too busy ogling her and not paying attention and smacked into the channel marker. Low speed so they were ok, but oh no...their camera and footage were ruined.
Hey, wondered about you recently, not seen you for a while. I would like the s65 or s78 but do prefer the MY as they have more room on the flybridge. When I lived in Mallorca I lived in Alcudia, mostly Brits (a much bigger harbour now) and went to Cala Pi a couple of times (used to be majority German and French there).
Hi James, love your reviews of the various boats and your cruises. Question though, how easy is it to charter a boat in Spain, if you have RYA Day Skipper licence?
Great video and yes, it is that easy to be on your boat, but 45.000 euro for a berth ??? Oops, that is a hefty charge. May want to fly a bit further and make it over to Greece, Turkey or Croatia. Any chance we will see you on a boat in that region ? 😀 Btw, it is now the end of October and still 27 degrees in Rhodes👍
Wow. 50k to moore for the year alone. My 57 in a maina on Thames is just under 9k. Thata a huge difference. What would the overnight be at the Smugglers spot you were at???? Would really like to know.
Nice one James, great little video ( nice to drift away to Sunnier weather on a beautiful Princess when Autumn is setting in here 😉 ) Noticed the "TT" t-shirt, are you a fellow biker James?? After years of dreaming, I actually spent 10 days on IOM for this years TT ........ fantastic 😃 "Get the fenders in!" All the best Russ
That's awesome James ....... Brilliant boat bloke, top TH-camr, biker and with your amazing choice in socks scores you a 10 out 10 on 'Russ's Rule Of Cool' 😀 😉 👍 All the best Russ
I'm never that astonished anymore when I watch people who have blagged their way though life. Some people are born on 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th base but everybody has to make the most of what they have. It's like Cyrus said in The Warriors.....its's all out there we just have to find a way to take it.
Would you buy a used boat from this (hungover) man?? Hahaha.... hilarious James.....must be dangerous your brother owning the pub.... ouch.... and mere steps from the boat......Cheers to that! 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍷🍷🍷
What a clever idea for a video, James. And here is its perfect partner: Brother Nick's demonstration - both on land using a shopping trolly and 'for real' with a hefty Med powerboat - of how a med moor is done, one step at a time. When we arrived in the Med, we had no idea how this all worked - very stressful! But Nick's demo will make you a pro. th-cam.com/video/bZQ0qPErlA4/w-d-xo.html
I loved all of the video...but the outtake was exceptional. I am still laughing to myself.
That’s my Mrs B - she laughs all the time 😂😂
The chirping of the birds in the marina on Menorca… sounds so peaceful.
So peaceful ☺️
Brilliant! I could’ve watched a few hours of that, James. And was that Sharon I saw dancing? Didn’t see JP, I guess he was propping up the bar with you 👍

Ah thank you - I just want to show you how easy it is if you want to explore the world 😊
Brilliant James ! Looks like you all had an amazing time - great footage !!! Glad to see you back making videos 😎
Hi James
Love the video and love your lighthearted presentation.
I would definitely spend a few hours in your brother’s pub .
😂🎉👍
The Smugglers in Calador is my favourite place for a drink . See you there!
Cuitadella is a fantastic place to berth a boat, history, nightlife and outstanding food
Positive energy as always. Thanks👍
Another informative tour James especially of cala d'or but the Princess S60 sport which is a stunning boat with a gyroscope included.
#1 you have a history of 100% broken passerelles on your two boating’s videos 😂 #2 I love these videos #3 I’m incredibly envious
Passerelles always breaking

Thanks John. Yes I agree with your coatings 🥳😁
Nice. Love the F60 & F62. The manoeuvring looked really calm, I'd love to see it tramping along at 35+ knots.
She does go !

Sorry S60, typo earlier. F62 looks very nice too, stunning in fact, bit slower though.

Very nice James. Love Cala D'Or
So do I 😊
That was fantastic mate!!! I live in Valencia and recently spent a few days in Ibiza, another island you could have fun at!!

@@damirbajic4579 love it Damir !
We were sat outside a bar watching you leave!
Brilliant- So hot for October 😀
Yes, it was stunning @@Boatscouk
Great post.
1:09 what did you really say instead of S60? 😄
No idea 😂
“Get the fenders in” ❤

Hi guys, this video would have been ideal video to explain the boating licensing laws with that boat in mind, ie icc and how to get it
@@andrewgoodfellow2039 yes good thinking
Good video James! Made me laugh👍😊

Do you need to have a boating license or course done to pilot a boat of that size by yourself? in spain.
Yes ICC minimum
I'm never that astonished anymore when I watch people who have blagged their way though life. Some people are born on 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th base but everybody has to make the most of what they have. It's like Cyrus said in The Warriors.....its's all out there we just have to find a way to take it.
James is that a Rolex Pepsi, or Batman, Batgirl? Or is that the Tudor version? Way less money....same exact company!
It’s the Batman - I have had for years - love the blue and black bezel 😀
I'm a bit sad that you didn't show any of your sock collections.
It was too hot 🥵 for socks 🧦
what kind of boat model was it?
Princess s60
Need to win the lotto 😂
Would you buy a used boat from this (hungover) man?? Hahaha.... hilarious James.....must be dangerous your brother owning the pub.... ouch.... and mere steps from the boat......Cheers to that! 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍷🍷🍷
Cheers !
So you have a captain license.
Of course - doesn’t make me any good though 😂
Hello I'm Raul rodriguez I'm a Filipino I'm her in poland now..sir can't you help me to work boat cleaners..

40-50000 Euros a year. Well, that will keep the riffraff out, won't it? Ridiculous.
