James, as per the comment below, you have a special talent for being able to honestly discuss the issues with a vessel, without discouraging someone from wanting to own the yacht you are presenting. If I was in the market, and I will be eventually, I would not hesitate to buy a boat from you.
If I ever found myself with enough money to own and maintain a Nordhavn, I would go to nobody but you for my purchase. You are the most educated person when it comes to these beautiful works of art. Your videos are the most in-depth and educational of any videos out there. You always take the time to show the pros and cons of each boat. Your workmanship of the headliners you have replaced and the other things you have done to a lot of these boats, shows the quality you expect is like no other! Thank you for the hard work you do to bring us these videos, if not for you many of us would never see these boats, let alone get such a great detailed tour of the interior and how the systems all operate!
NO ONE shows a Nordhavn like James! I truly love the way you do things James. The good, the bad, the fuzzy and the great, thank you! Be happy, be safe.
I love your honesty James! Like the hatch hitting the door in the cockpit... I appreciate how you will be walking through a yacht and point something out and say "They weren't using their head when they built that!" Even the people that purchase boats from you will appreciate your honesty because salesmen don't have a reputation for being honest! You're the only person I would ever buy a yacht from.... And I will have one some day! ;)
One thing that seems to get missed on everyone’s Nordhavn walkthroughs is practical storage of bulky items. Pantries and cupboards are always mentioned but: after seeing Mermaid Monster clear the decks in preparation for a Hurricane, I’m not so impressed with the storage space. They filled the Captain’s cabin to the overhead with seat/deck pads and other items, making it otherwise unusable. It would be great if you could address this in one of your videos. Thanks a lot for the great videos!
I own a Krogen 39 I only carry what I can stow, It’s too easy to “clutter” a boat up I tell guest before they come if you want something soft to sit on bring your own cause my butt pad is only for me
James, thanks for this! I’m taking delivery of a new 68FPH in a few weeks and so much of your commentary was relevant and reassuring. I look forward to meeting someday!
Why…why have I watched everyone of your walk-through Nordhavn videos knowing damn well that I’ll never be able to afford such a vessel? Because the knowledge, passion, and commitment that you’ve exhibited, not only to the owners of these boats but to your family and employees of your company is refreshing. Hats off to you and if you ever float out into the desert there’s a beer (or cocktail of your choice) waiting for you, cheers!
James your reviews are the best on You Tube. I love the detail bring to light that is so important, yet skipped by most all other reviewers. If I ever buy a Nordhavn you will be my first call.
It's great to finally get an actual objective review of these yachts. Most are simply sales pitches that tell us how great everything is, with little explanation of how good or poor things function in actual conditions. Prop's to you James for a thoughtful and insightful review.
I almost never comment, love these boats…..but this technical tour is exactly what this old engineer loves. Great job, spot on. Give me a couple years and we will be in Florida looking for something in this range.
Completely unrelated to Nordhavn yachts or boats for that matter - you are very good at explaining things in an articulate way and a natural in front of the camera. Enjoy watching your videos sir!
I have to say, that was one of the most informative walk-throughs I've seen yet. I'm a future Nordhavn owner at some point and the description/applications of all the systems you went over were enlightening to say the least. But, it also follows across any other brand someone might be interested in. Very useful for anyone looking at purchasing a boat. That being said, I couldn't be more sold on the Nordhavn brand thanks to your matter-of-fact, no bs approach to educating someone in the market for one. Every boat has pluses/minuses but its so helpful to know them up front rather than sugarcoating to make the sale. Great job, subscribed!
James, I thought all yacht videos were the same. Yours are so complete and wildly entertaining. After watching I often think to myself “Why the hell would you buy another trawler?” By the time I start my search, You’ll have taught me what to look for in each and every system. Thanks!
Watching your videos I’m on the threshold of wanting a rowboat, which I could expertly maintain and operate, and a Nordhavn. But the more I watch your presentations, my confidence in learning to operate a trawler grows. I would love this little ship if it topped at 14 knots like the newer larger Nordhavn models. Thanks for the great walkthrough videos.
I will never come close to a Nordhavn or even a motorboat. But this walkthrough I’ve seen now for the 5-6th time. Its like ballet you have no interest in on paper but that you can not stop watching. Best work in biz
Love this video, I personally liked the music and didn’t think it was too loud in the intro and understand the effect Matthew was going for . Keep them coming please and you are a great father and son team 😊
GREAT TOUR. I love that you jump on the bed, and get into the areas. It gives PERSPECTIVE on the size of objects and spaces that we CANNOT get from the more casual tours.! GREAT JOB.
Good Morning James, This has been one of the very best in depth, detailed boat videos that I've ever had the pleasure of watching. Excellently done. I appreciate your honesty and clear integrity. We're predominantly a private charter family. We don't have the time nor applied knowledge to own one, though after watching you and subscribing to your awesome channel, anything is quite possible. Loved the video ! Warmest Regards from Arizona
Brother; as a retired since '04' high speed production equipment electro mechanical tech, I learn more watching these vids of James going through a nautical set-up than I would spending a month reading the nomenclature. Guru Status!
Thanks for yet another fabulous in depth review of a Nordhavn. The only thing I would like to see you do is take these boats out and show them in their element. Thanks again and I will give you a call when I am looking to buy.
These videos are simply outstanding, thank you for your honesty, pointing out what is good and what isn’t, whether intentional or not it’s the best way to act in sales. I know it’s the competition but any thoughts on Bering and how their boats compare? Pros and cons?
Your in depth Knowledge of Nord Havn's is simply amazing. Transporting boats most of my life i thought i was fairly well versed.You have just showed me how little i really know.I really like the way you discuss the pro and cons of each model. When the time come for me to pull the trigger and buy the boat of my dreams you will certainly be my first call.Informative is a understatement!!!!!!
Thank you for taking the time to make another stunning, in depth videos. I have worked with LIon systems in data centers. Some used a gyro to stabilise current and hold for brief outages from switching to alternate power. Not stab gyro weights required. Supercap is an exciting and potentially dangerous thing. The short protection is normally strong and redundant so it dosent make big bad boom. These were tested as warheads and found to be something not quite ready with weight to blast ratio.
Thank you for spending the time to create these videos for those who have interest in these boats but cannot afford to buy them, and to inform potential buyers
Best Nordhavn review I’ve seen! Thank you! The tips you mentioned are so well thought out, like the A/C water lines! We want to get a 76 when I finally retire!
It may take a lottery win to buy a Nordhavn, so there is doubt that I'll own one. But there is no doubt who I would have service it. That would be Yacht Tech. Fantastic videos. It is nice to listen to someone that knows their stuff and communicates it clearly and without any boasting or bravado. Big thanks to Mathew for following you around and doing the edits. Very good work.
James, love your in depth videos and the breadth of your knowledge and openness of what does and does not work. On behalf of my wife and myself, we would like to put 2 votes in for a review of a N68 aft pilot house. This is our dream boat and we would love to hear your comments and cautions for this vessel. Thanks so much for all that you do. Cheers
my favorite part is the little nook sleeping area in the pilot house - i can sleep there, the kids can sleep there, its perfect hangout with the seating area infant of it.
Thank you for what would have to be one of the most comprehensive boat tours I have taken the time to watch very informative and knowledgable thanks Guys you deserve a wee jimandtomic. Cheers.
yayyyy...... youre back. awesome video again. i learn more about a boat watching 1 of your videos compared to a dozen of other videos. also the 64 is a nicer boat than i was expecting it to be. looking forward to the 55. thank you james.
Thankyou James for the 63 64 thing. I am into helium 3 and 4 that impregnates boats from the moon and the bmx v racer difference is just one of those things. I understand the $1 mill difference. I had this thing between V8 cars and 6 and 4 cylinders.
Thankyou James for the lesson in helium 3 and 4 with 63 and 64 foot boats. I've been busy using the helium against the radiation in Europe which isn't going anywhere quickly
Great to see you reviewing a boat again! What's your opinion on the venerable N46. Her low profile? What do you consider the smallest size for a 2 man/woman crewed boat for extended stays still giving enough privacy to both guests and crew? 76?
I’m most definitely buying my nordhavn from you. I have no experience but I’m in love with the 60. Can a customer fly you or your technicians out to them if they need emergency repairs?
YOUR favorite might not be mine because I can not "single" as deftly as you guys because I hear an alarm and I'm looking for the manual while you already donned your scuba gear, replaced the sky hook, and had a cupa'! Very interesting videos, from an Alaskan living in Kazakhstan.
its nice the customers know, when they get their boats back after the vessel was serviced, it was done properly buy highly skilled individuals, love the videos, stay safe!!!
Hi James and Mathew, great honest down to earth reviews guys, have watched everything I can find on the N55 and please James can you you do a three hour or three day review on them as I am seriously keen on them.. Please include your thoughts on the pros and cons on Single versus the twin engines.
James...your walk through are amazing. Its obvious you know EVERYTHING there is to know about these boats and you LOVE what you do! I would really enjoy more posts from you....I love your input. Do you plan to do more with this channel or can we find you doing these kind of reviews on other channels? Also, it's obv your expertise is the Nordhaven but I would love to see you do product and system reviews regardless of the boat they are on! Please let us know if we can see more of you out there somewhere!
Thanks a lot! We will continue to do trawler reviews and in the future expand our horizon to other manufacturers. We hope to include Selene, Marlow, Kadey Krogen, Fleming, and maybe more. At some point there will be separate videos covering individual systems such as hydraulics, stabilizers, batteries, electrical, air conditioning, generators, thrusters, etc...
I like the idea of having two engines/screws for ease of maneuverability and redundancy while on the ocean. Would you suggest a Nordhavn with that fitting?
The costs of ownership as I tried to point out to someone lusting after a Nordhaven on the hard in Southampton boil down to one simple statement that if you have to ask then these boats are not for you. They are so difficult to quantify you can only arrive at an approximate figure after the fact so a year cruising for one might only be half or maybe twice as much for another in terms of total costs. She still wants one and knowing her she will get one and I can't blame her for that, great boats.
I think if you really want to know which model James likes the best, you need to sit across from him at a large table, with your millions in hand and say. “James, let’s order a brand new Nordhavn, and spec it out with every system the exact make and model, you would install if it were for your own boat”
I'm not really as interested in Nordhavn's or boats that much recently. But I'm going to watch this one with James! And I'll probably wait until Summer is over too. Because it's just too short up here!
Very enjoyable hour and half looking at this yacht. Thanks to James and Matthew. Love your video's .. A request:- have you got any 60's you can do a video on?
Great walk-through. On the Hydraulic Alternators - I am not understanding where they fit in to the operation of the boat. Is there a hydraulic pump running from the Main engine? I see that the wing engine is required for thrusters/windlass etc when manoeuvring. A very power-hungry/expensive solution to use hydraulic alternators - 'clumsy'. Belt-drive alternators mounted direct to the main engine HAS to be the way to go. All in all - a great vessel and very detailed run-through.
@@zorbalight3933 yeah I just realized I had a loose connection on my tv setup that was affecting the audio. I’ve since edited my comment to remove the reference.
Awesome video! As always full of energy and informative! Looking forward to more videos. Unfortunately your videos give my husband dreams larger Nordhavns! 😉 Great work James and Matthew!
Thank you for the videos, these are very nice and informative! I'm looking myself into a N41 as an entry level, all these videos help getting into the Nordhavn concept. One question that I do have though is why are there so many owners on these larger boats, generally speaking, is it due to the high maintenance costs that make them walk off or other reasons?
James, as per the comment below, you have a special talent for being able to honestly discuss the issues with a vessel, without discouraging someone from wanting to own the yacht you are presenting. If I was in the market, and I will be eventually, I would not hesitate to buy a boat from you.

Thank you! It is appreciated to hear this as the editor, it was intentional to have the music louder than James during the intro :)
GREAT TOUR. I love that you jump on the bed, and get into the areas. It gives PERSPECTIVE on the size of objects and spaces that we CANNOT get from the more casual tours.! GREAT JOB.
You remind me of Henry Fonda. Your in depth explanations of on board systems benefits us all. Thank you.
HEY GREAT TO SEE YOU.. I have always prepared my life for a Nordhaven. since 2003. Is 2023 My Year... It Maybe.

It must be Christmas, and Saint Knight has a special gift for all of us. :)
my favorite part is the little nook sleeping area in the pilot house - i can sleep there, the kids can sleep there, its perfect hangout with the seating area infant of it.
I’m preparing for my adventure around the world. I am 34 now and I want to start my trip around the the world in 6-7 years. It has to be a Nordhavn!
That would be amazing! I’ll be a deckhand/cook/bodyguard on the trip! Lol
Your passion does shine through thank you
Thanks for running through the systems!!! Perfect .
I can’t believe how quiet the engine was at 1000 rpm it was a great demonstration 😊
Thank you for what would have to be one of the most comprehensive boat tours I have taken the time to watch very informative and knowledgable thanks Guys you deserve a wee jimandtomic. Cheers.

Praise Odin! The wait is over. James at it again dropping knowledge on his loyal subscribers!
Great stuff, James. When Mama says we can sell the house and buy a Nordhavn I will give you a call.
Great detailed tour, warts and all, from a guy who knows his boats. Need to get James to comb over an Allseas 92 or Bering yacht
Thankyou James for the 63 64 thing. I am into helium 3 and 4 that impregnates boats from the moon and the bmx v racer difference is just one of those things. I understand the $1 mill difference. I had this thing between V8 cars and 6 and 4 cylinders.

Super wide salon.
I agree that the shallow
cupboards probably
contribute to the wide
feel, and that's what I would choose.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video, Very informative , answered lots of my questions !
The first video that I’ve watched. Absolutely loved it, especially the honesty. Incredibly informative and now I get to watch all that preceded it 👍🏻
Thanks for your support and we're happy to have earned a new follower ♥️ we hope you enjoy our other videos!
Thank you for that brilliant tour.
Thank you James Knight finally the wait is over.
Now the N64 is my favorite Nordhavn.
Great to see you reviewing a boat again! What's your opinion on the venerable N46. Her low profile? What do you consider the smallest size for a 2 man/woman crewed boat for extended stays still giving enough privacy to both guests and crew? 76?

Praise be to the pantheon of gods he's back yes he's back James is back 😂🙏
That’s my boat I want it ....thank you for the tour really great and cemented my views on Nordhaven 👍👍👍
Excellent Excellent Excellent video never have enough watching your videos.
keep them coming
Great job
Thanks a lot for long awaited review!
N60 review - and we get a full-house!
YOUR favorite might not be mine because I can not "single" as deftly as you guys because I hear an alarm and I'm looking for the manual while you already donned your scuba gear, replaced the sky hook, and had a cupa'! Very interesting videos, from an Alaskan living in Kazakhstan.
Finally!! Man I’ve been looking forward to another video. Awesome content love it
Sorry it took so long…. Glad you had the time to watch it ;)
Stunning yacht, and excellent walkthrough. I'm curious of the difference in gross tonnage between the 64 and 63/62. Thanks, James.
its nice the customers know, when they get their boats back after the vessel was serviced, it was done properly buy highly skilled individuals, love the videos, stay safe!!!
A great review. Looking forward to more in the future.
Hi James and Mathew, great honest down to earth reviews guys, have watched everything I can find on the N55 and please James can you you do a three hour or three day review on them as I am seriously keen on them.. Please include your thoughts on the pros and cons on Single versus the twin engines.
James...your walk through are amazing. Its obvious you know EVERYTHING there is to know about these boats and you LOVE what you do! I would really enjoy more posts from you....I love your input. Do you plan to do more with this channel or can we find you doing these kind of reviews on other channels?
Also, it's obv your expertise is the Nordhaven but I would love to see you do product and system reviews regardless of the boat they are on! Please let us know if we can see more of you out there somewhere!
Thanks a lot! We will continue to do trawler reviews and in the future expand our horizon to other manufacturers. We hope to include Selene, Marlow, Kadey Krogen, Fleming, and maybe more. At some point there will be separate videos covering individual systems such as hydraulics, stabilizers, batteries, electrical, air conditioning, generators, thrusters, etc...
Hi James. I've really enjoyed your videos. Wish you made more. If you were buying your first trawler would you buy one with or without Teak decks?
happy your back !
thanks for your honesty
I like the idea of having two engines/screws for ease of maneuverability and redundancy while on the ocean. Would you suggest a Nordhavn with that fitting?
Would love to see you get your hands on a new 41.....
FIVE MONTHS NO NEW VIDEO LETS GO! Coastal Pilot walk through please.
What a great walk through. Very knowledgeable host!
Thank you...very educational and informative, as always. Overall, mind boggling., yet necessary honesty.
got anymore video reviews coming up? miss the Nordhavn walkthroughs

I thought it was a lot of pumps and cooling and smoke detectors, jeez. What is wrong with a belt, or a electric motor/generator in the drive line.
Great video. Love the Lithium Ion setup.
Only time I couldn't hear James was when we opened the Engine room door otherwise fine for me and I have average hearing for 70+ yrs.

Awesome video! As always full of energy and informative! Looking forward to more videos. Unfortunately your videos give my husband dreams larger Nordhavns! 😉
Great work James and Matthew!
What a boat this is! Just incredible. Tnx for sharing:)
I am declaring this my dream boat after watching the first rew seconds!
hi... thanks for your show... i'm interested to hear about your thoughts on the Starlink satelite internet provider for boat use ...
Very impressive boat. Maybe they will be in my price range in ten years when I retire.
Thank you for the videos, these are very nice and informative! I'm looking myself into a N41 as an entry level, all these videos help getting into the Nordhavn concept. One question that I do have though is why are there so many owners on these larger boats, generally speaking, is it due to the high maintenance costs that make them walk off or other reasons?
Would love to see the 43 and/or the 55 next.
Another Long video......and I loved it !!
