Hi Dave, I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your posts. I'm 54 and planning on retiring at 60 and the Jeanneau NC 1095 is one of the boats i'm considering but more importantly, I don't have a ton of experience in over night boating (most of mine is fishing and loading up on the trailer at the end of the day). so this video might be my favorite but I also like the dingy videos since it's a light weight run about that is easy to launch. I'll be in the Northwest on the Columbia River for most of my boating but have learned a lot from your posts. Thanks Again!
Thank you very much. It is very gratifying to hear they are helpful to someone. We started the channel to encourage people to get comfortable with spending time on a boat and traveling. The 1095 is such a sweet spot because of the size combined with all the features. If you ever have questions along the way, feel free to let us know. When people ask a question, we try to make a video about it, assuming someone else will have the same question. Have fun figuring out which boat. We looked for a few years before deciding on the 1095.
@douglasbuchanan4203 I'm also 54 and plan on retiring by 60. We also are favoring the Jeanneau NC 1095 fly. We live in Oregon so we would keep it moored in Portland somewhere on the CR. We plan on taking it up the CR to Lewiston ID and possibly up to the San Juan Islands to cruise around up there. Eventually we want to ship it to the East coast and do the great loop. Most of my fishing experience has been trailer boating too. By biggest boat so far was the Hewescraft Ocean pro which was 24 feet with the off shore bracket. So I feel a 36 foot boat with 2 engines will not be too bad to maneuver. Dave... Great videos, I just subscribed so I plan on catching up and watching all of your videos. It's great to hear the numbers like how many gallons per nautical mile and how many meals your propane tank gives you. How many hours your generator gives you. I love to plan so this video was fun to watch. Can't wait to have my turn with this beautiful boat.
Excellent video ! Has to be the most comprehensive and straightforward video on boat planning trip have ran across. The planning around redundant elements (plugs, extra anchor, satellite phone, etc) might seem overkill to many new boaters,but experience say duper key to ensure when things fail doesnot ruin a trip. Another resource on planning i use a ton is youtube itself. Many times can see marinas or even popular anchorages spots and get excellent sense how will be.
Thank you. We went through these steps on our last trip. Because we were prepared, when weather changed our plan, we were prepared. Had not thought of looking at TH-cam on the locations. Love to visualize where I am going prior to bringing the boat in.
New subscriber, thanks for all the useful info. We've been looking at the nc1095, what were some of the other boats you looked at before you chose this one?
Thank you Brian. Good luck finding your boat! We spent a year or so researching and daydreaming before we purchased the 1095. We have regularly gone to the Bahamas and rented boats there. And, I am former boat captain, so was comfortable with a boat that we could take to the Bahamas once or twice a year. The criteria we evaluated purchasing a boat were: 1) large enough for enjoyable day trips with us, our 4 children and some of their friends, 2) Open, inside/outside entertaining space (with an enclosed salon to hide from weather and bugs) 3) AC/climate control (North Florida, mid-summer is hot mid day, mid-winter is cold) 4) generator (to run the AC anchored out) 5) main cabin separate from entertaining 6) galley with enough space to cook 7) over 200 miles range (to reach The Bahamas and cruise comfortably) 8) twin engines 9) separate shower in the head 10) preferably under 35' During our search, we added additional criteria in the search: 1) preferred a new vessel, and 2) wanted a dealer/broker near us in North Florida for service (ended up with Dunbar Yachts at St Simons Island). Other models we looked at closely were the Antares 11 (love the side decks, none available near us), the Antares 9 and Jeanneau Merry Fisher 895 (no separate shower, a little small for us and our 4 kids and lacked storage for a longer trip). The Regal 36 XO was another we considered, but never viewed in person because we did not hear back from a dealer. Price was also a factor in deciding The 1095 provides a lot of value and really fit our needs. It is easy to operate with twin engines and the bow thruster. Day trips and getting close to beaches are easy, and longer trips and overnights are very comfortable. The "3rd cabin" is really storage for us. With out that space, longer trips would be difficult. The biggest value: my wife loves the boat and is comfortable on longer trips. However, we cannot help but day dream of our next boat, just a little bigger, with a little more range, with a step up in finishes. The main upgrades would be the midship master, more durable finishes and range closer to 250 miles.
We have a Takacat 300 LX with an Epropulsion Spirit 1.0 short shaft engine. Love them. The Takacat and engine can fit in the lazarette if you do not have them assembled (with nothing else in it). The battery we stow inside. My wife and I can lift the Takacat on and off, weighing 64 lbs or 29 kg.

That's 'learning and relearning' ???? Sounds to me like as soon as you purchased your boat all your boat captain experience came flooding back and then some! 'Failure to plan, means you are planning to fail'.... I'm pretty sure that's never going to apply here....🙂
So much comes back. And so much to relearn. My wife points out I often know what I don’t know. The goal is to share what I am relearning, because others likely are trying to figure out the same thing.

I would love to cruise the Pacific Northwest. The 1095 allows the extended season with heat/ac.
dont weight as you dont have much time left in relation to fitness

200 miles is ~$1100. Wow, was not expecting that.
May be, I should start looking into the Greenline Hybrid series.
We average .9 miles per gallon on most trips, the cost of fuel is a major driver of our trip costs.
Nice info
Thank you. Tried to codify what we do.
Nice channel
Thank you. Appreciate the encouragement.
Nice video. Do you have any leak on your ventilation grid located at the Stern? When you have been browsing for hours.
Not that I know of
thanks for the video. Can you please tell me the dinghy and the motor you purchased for your NC 1095? I am trying to decide one for us.

Was wondering why you chose 1095 without flybridge??
Partially availability. Partially fuel economy. Have no regrets with the coupe (and am sure we would not have with the fly).
