If it floats, Rico & Victoria will bring it to you!!! (Can't wait to see their first submarine tour!) Another amazing yacht tour! Other yacht tour channels TAKE NOTICE! THIS IS HOW ITS DONE!!! Thank you both for another great Saturday!
While certainly more functional, that would throw the weight distribution off and would probably do all sorts of weird things to the stability of the boat because of the lopsided center of gravity vs buoyancy. As it stands, I am already seriously questioning that things seaworthiness.
@@Jack-yl7ccI’m sure that its open water cruising would be limited to crossing over various bays while traveling the intercoastal or maybe a jump over to Bimini on a calm day. But probably fine for Florida from Tarpon Springs to Jax and then down the St John’s. You could spend quite some time and never be exposed to open water for more than an hour or two.
My friend purchased an older houseboat after his divorce and bankruptcy about 30 years ago. engine was not running so it was towed to the location he needed with hook-ups. He out a grill and bug zapper on the back porch and had fish at his boat all the time. He had girls in small boats stop in for a private party on weekends. His stories reflect a wonderful time and lifestyle and for very little money. Eventually he had the engine repaired and he sold it and got into a house again but the stories and exoeriences live on !! Imagine making memories on something like this boat !!!
Great yacht. I think these house yachts are fantastic ideas. Most cruisers under 55 feet are too compromised for live aboard, but these are perfect for that and you can enjoy limited safe travels as well.
I was so excited for this video but she needs work for sure. Owners cabin is lackluster and all those doors (which have to be sliding as you touched on). The small fridge (Frigidaire no thanks) and no ice maker on the fly bridge …should be standard ..unless I missed it). I did like the galley and salon layout and all the windows in the 2nd cabin. More videos for options on this type of boat would be awesome. You guys are great!
This is a really cool concept of a houseboat, but with more amenities. I love the dark tinted windows, you would definitely need that in the Florida heat!
It's a canal boat. A very big, American canal boat. It should never go to sea. On a lake for sure, nice boat. I just can't get this song out of my head.... Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale a tale of a fateful trip, that started from this tropic port, aboard this tiny ship.......
Really a wonderful tour. Great idea for a live aboard that can actually go somewhere. Pocket doors would be better and I think I'd add an outdoor popup TV on the flybridge.
I do wish all the cabin doors were “pocket” doors, thanks for confirming that the builders realized their error. They also need to install a larger window in the master cabin.
Smart business plan by this Company, target the waterfront home owners looking for more space, "BOOM" setup in under a week. Plumb in a grey+blackwater system to the house to make it even better.
This is the perfect boat for me. I’d want to completely redesign the interior spaces, they are just “not right” but everything else, the upper deck, the windows and even the furniture outside is almost perfect. That sink in the kitchen is laughable, you get more water in the floor than down the drain and the cabin layout is just wrong but like I’ve already said there’s still lots to love here.
I would love one of those-not big on racing around in a boat or going offshore..been there, done that. But this would be lovely. A million bucks is a bit pricey though
Hi guys, I think the Bow and the Engine compartment would be the two biggest differences between the two. And I wish you all the luck in the world getting under that bridge!
Great video on something different. The options are boundless for people who want to float & nothing is cheap about boats, yachts, houseboats, or canoes so be prepared to spend if that is what floats your boat. Thanks guys as always.🙏🇨🇦👍
Great boat. Lots of possibilities. I would flip the shower and toilet so the shower is near the swimming area and toilet in the centre of the boat. The same way I would flip the 2 bedrooms and extend the master to get a walk around double. The second bedroom I would make a small office that doubled as a bunk room if needed.
Interesting concept. Since you both are so genuine, trustworthy and honest with your reviews it’s great you are offering your knowledge to help people find their next boat. Only issue, is a giant rainfall shower head a great idea with a limited water supply unless you have a way to make freshwater
The best boat tours continue with Rico & Victoria! Very nice house boat! Not sure I want to do the loop with only 300 mile range? And congratulations to Victoria on being named striped clothing spokesperson of the year! Stripes are back in fashion and you lead the way!!!
One question: why? Nearly $1M for a cramped, poorly laid out, dubiously seaworthy, floating box? Much better options exist with conventional boats/yachts, which are superiour aesthetically and functionally to this...object.
I can't believe that, the master bedroom was that small. I am so used to the master bedroom being so much bigger. The R Logo that was on the bathrobe, is the logo for a Soap Opera called The Young and the Restles.
Add a "BBQ Galley" on the top deck. Add "camp out" accommodations on the top deck like the Alaska Ferry has. Eliminate the starboard split head - make the two staterooms wider, moving the hallway to where the heads were. Add a 3 door-access head between the staterooms with hallway door - day head. The rest needs nothing... Thanks for the tour - this should be a VERY popular seller.
I absolutely love Saturdays at noon. Thanks always for enriching my day :). I’m a bit of an old timer, love more of a traditional style , this is very nice…
This is one of the reasons why I love houseboats so much. Thank you for bringing us home, it is wonderful and here you have my comment + a hug from the Canary Islands 🛥️🏝️
@@RadDadisRad The word "apartment" has nothing to do with renting or ownership status. Apartment is the type of domicile which is contained in a larger building with multiple units, as opposed to a detached house.
cool House Yacht. Coastal cruising, river canal systems North America. Bahamas like you said island hoping. Someone wants to purchase a few or more could start up a rental business of some sort. Great for seniors who would rather just stay close to home and family.
Walk around captain's bed with plenty of storage.. people like a showpiece 👍 Pocket doors are a MUST✅ Eye leve all-in-one, dryer/ washer comb, w pull out clothes line tucked in a laundry closet all on the top deck & dinner table doubles as a place to fold your clothes ✅ I've got more needs.. like 💦 💦 water catchment & purification ✅
I think a half or full enclosure on the top deck would work. Good, for colder weather. Otherwise, you have to remove the pillows, when it rains. The ocean can get wavy. So, probably best to use it, in calmer waters -Mike
You know what guys, I really liked this tour. It was a tangent to what you usually do but really cool. Some feedback for the builders, not sure about having significant wiring looms in close proximity to any wet whiteware like washing machines and/or dryers. My suggestions is have a separate stacked washer dryer and if possible, any 'electronic/electrical brains' for the house/boat are located elsewhere. And definitely have sliding, not hinged doors, in the updated model. As an option (if they don't already) also have covered area such as louvered system or electrically operated sunshades for top deck, really important for harsher UV climates. Brilliant work you guys and look forward to a few more tangents.
An interesting concept for a home afloat with the ability to move around. For some people that's important after work going on holiday, you can be taking your boat with you. Or on inland lake or a very wide river not so sure about canals or bridges how tall is she. But s very versatile boat.
Interesting concept. I would say as a lake vessel, . Yup a perfect idea Lots of sail area for those little outboards to wrangle I would add a bow anchor. Add a slide for grandkids As a man. Victoria. I love the beeebop up to the fly bridge. You are such a beautiful lady.😊 The addition of a que to help find our next boat is great idea👍 Rico...the engine room tour was on point. Short sweet and lots of room😂😂😂🎉
A little tall for the absolutely lowest clearances of the Great Loop, but you can go around those. You could spend your life noodling around the Great Lakes in one of these. I'm not so thrilled by the huge windows - I like my privacy.
Install solar panel covered extension of the top awning bar. Replace engines with two electric outboards. Add lithium battery pack instead of generator. Use "Re-Gen" outboards - run 1, recharge batteries with the other on cloudy days. A TOTAL WINNER !!!!!!
I like the idea of a houseboat. Unfortunately no marinas where I live will even consider them. Pocket doors are a must with those narrow hallways. Nice change from ordinary.
If it floats, Rico & Victoria will bring it to you!!! (Can't wait to see their first submarine tour!) Another amazing yacht tour! Other yacht tour channels TAKE NOTICE! THIS IS HOW ITS DONE!!! Thank you both for another great Saturday!
That's a perfect retirement vessel for a couple wanting to simply follow the sun. I love it Great video.
I would move the hall completely to one side instead of splitting it. Thanks for the share Victoria and Rico.
I had the same thought.
While certainly more functional, that would throw the weight distribution off and would probably do all sorts of weird things to the stability of the boat because of the lopsided center of gravity vs buoyancy.
As it stands, I am already seriously questioning that things seaworthiness.
@@Jack-yl7ccI’m sure that its open water cruising would be limited to crossing over various bays while traveling the intercoastal or maybe a jump over to Bimini on a calm day.

@@Jack-yl7cc calm day voyages for sure
@@Jack-yl7ccI’m sure you would have to remove the catamaran style hull and make it a traditional houseboat hull style.
You can take that house to any beautiful place in its range, that is priceless

This is a really cool house 'vessel'. The liveaboard possibilities are enormous.
The Wall of Windows - WoW! 😁
😂
Very different its like sailing away in an apartment. 👍👍
Cool idea right?!?!?!
Try paying for moving your apartment!!!🤪😂🤪😂
Yay!! Woot woot Saturday!
🥳🥳🥳
I lived coastal for a while. I dealt with house boat wiring for a while. Love house boats.
Very cool!
The short hair look's great! Interesting option! Another great tour!
Thanks so much!
That's so unique od a boat, a simple yet great design.
love the idea of a house boat,
Us too!!
House boats for sale here in Kentucky go for $300,000 on up !
@@NautiStylesyou guys should check out the house boat capital of the world, Lake Cumberland in Kentucky. Some amazing house boats with helicopters
Love this channel, grew up around boats in san diego. Especially like the classic yachts and superyachts that you get to show.
Glad you like them!
Great yacht. I think these house yachts are fantastic ideas. Most cruisers under 55 feet are too compromised for live aboard, but these are perfect for that and you can enjoy limited safe travels as well.
Perfect Mississippi River yacht. St. Paul to the Gulf of Mexico
What a cool concept, but a lot of compromises apparently to accomodate the (narrow) hallway on the main deck.
This is a real ultimate lifestyle living house yacht.
I’d love something like this
This vessel adds new meaning to the phrase Party Barge.

as a person in a wheelchair i love this boat.

I want a "Yacht House" that crawls up on the beach! Actually, if it exists, I'll take 2!
An amphibious motorhome would be cool !
I would love one of those-not big on racing around in a boat or going offshore..been there, done that. But this would be lovely. A million bucks is a bit pricey though
This would be a great intercoastal cruiser
Great video, love it! Thank you for it. Nice little boat, a floating apartment, pretty cool idea!
I watch a few of these channels & your buy far the best keep em comin🎉
No walk around bed in owners cabin? Is there a camera to see either end of boat from helm stations?
This would be great for SunFest weekend
I would add a Joy Stick for docking. Possible with two engines.
Yes to house boats on your channel!!
Love seeing the house yacht!! Owninga houseboat has been a dream :)
Very nice. Appreciate all of the windows! Great kitchen.
Hold my beer, I'll take that through Haulover during a small vessel advisory.
On a serious note that I would totally live on that, very nice. Should be able to fit under bridges on the great loops.
I thought that exact thing. Just punch it. Hold on and pray.
Ok, that made me chuckle 😂
I normally wouldn’t consider a house boat, but this is a great take on mobility and luxury wrapped in one :). I wonder if it has the luxury price too?
Hi guys, I think the Bow and the Engine compartment would be the two biggest differences between the two. And I wish you all the luck in the world getting under that bridge!

Imagine buying a houseboat for $975,000 and then 20 years later it's worth about $50,000 while an apartment would've tripled in value...
Well, to be fair of course this is for a niche market and an apt won't offer what this does. Still, the price is steep.
No property tax. Apartments are rental units, condominiums are purchased units.

@@pistonburner6448
In the USA people rent apartments and buy condos
Or you just buy the 20 y/o houseboat now for 50K that probably just needs a little TLC.
So cozy to see u very relaxing and she is allways so nicely dressed Love from Denmark

Perfect for living on the Hawksbury in Sydney.
