What is the air draft (bridge clearance) for Sargo 45 model? I can't find the air draft spec in your review, is it suitable for inland europe waterways such as in france, thanks
Pilothouse doors,safe comfortable excellent bow seating,and also very important feature overlooked by most builders is the extended aft hardtop .Totally awesome boat!
Yep, it's important because nobody actually wants to just bake in sun damaging their skin, permanently covered outdoor space is must. Having sunbed at front is enough. It's also super good for solar panels.
@@Andyhutchinson it was shot on the DJI Mavic 3 pro. So just myself flying/doing the camera. Jack is well versed at what moves to pull and some good communication means we get the shots we are after as efficiently as possible :)
Basically a 3 bedrooms/3 bathrooms magically packed into a single bedroom haul because "Screw physics and geometry" 😅 Amazing space utilization and absolutely superb review! Please keep the good work going
Your reviews are very well done. Narration is very nice, filming and editing...sobre, factual and accurate. And that boat. You really gave me the wish to spent time onboard 😄
I have looked at boats for a fair time and this for the price and practicability is excellent it does the job for me and will seriously look into this.
My husband and I toured a 45 Sargo Explorer earlier these year (I think February) at an exhibition. They are very impressive! Expensive though, but looks worth every dollar, especially in person. Wow it looks very stable, at speed! Our new home has it's own dock perfectly suited for THIS vessel lol This wouldn't look out of place as a police/coastguard patrol vessel, without the swim deck on the bow! I really did fall in love with this vessel! I have Googled it regularly since we seen it lol. Sending hints🤣. My husband prefers sailing, but not me. Too much work lol Excellent quality video too. Thanks!
I am binge watching your reviews. I'm not particularly interested in boats - aviation is my hobby. However, your production standards are so high, that I really enjoy watching them! Terrific knowledgeable presenter, perfect camera work and editing. Bravo!
Now if I had the money that would be the boat I would want, perfect size as a daily driver so to speak, live aboard and explore! Thanks for showcasing this beauty
If I had a million I would hang up my sails tomorrow and buy my first ever motor yacht. As retirement time is here I could spend months in the Baltic or Eastern Med on one of these. When you see dayboats at one million plus this seems like a well priced proper yacht. Sadly, if I was to sell my ageing Beneteau, I might get the price of a Seakeeper for one. Loved the video and I hope we can see one in more challenging conditions one day.
I prefer the layout of this Sargo over the Targa, however the more traditional materials and design used in the Targa win me over by a very slim margin. Great walkthrough as usual!
Brilliant boat and great review. Perfect boat for where I go boating and if budget allowed it’d be on the short list for sure. I especially liked the washing machine, but would have liked more detail; brand; spin cycles; washing capacity etc 🤪🤣
The boat is beautiful only problem I see is the Volvo 650 engine which here in Melbourne Florida the marina either send them out to be rebuilt or replaced due to heavy engine where strange that he’s replaced three within the past 15 months in Florida. The video is well done, and the boat looks beautiful. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thanks for a great revue. When is the revue with testdrive of a Targa 46 going to come? And can that test be with compare to this boat? Thanks again for great shows
It was a nice presentation of the yacht but i miss in the end a specification with the technical data of the boat with diesel consumtion per Nm and the volume of diesel tank, fresh water tank and other important volumes as gas tubes, electrical help as GPS, Chart for waterways, Radar .
Definitely need a bigger sea review of this boat! Looks amazing but concerned it may be a bit high CoG compared to other Finnish boats. Also an update on the flybridge option that is supposed to be coming out. Also, do we know if they have plans for outboard engines? Torque would probably be a challenge but seems like everyone else is doing it…
I do enjoy your reviews. As an english channel user it would be really useful to see a comparison in more difficult conditions with say a Nelson or Lochin or other semi displacent boat. But thanks for not choosing only marina queens to review.
Another big plus on this boat is the foward seating arrangement to comfortably seat 4,a lot of new boats out there have ONLY captains double helm seat which is fine if your with your mate on a date,but kinda cruddy if with your buddy,like on the marquis 40 by carver or the new 41 nordhavn and many many more that are really designed for dockside entertaining only
Another awesome boat and vid, im going to watch the targa vid again to see which I'd choose. 👍❤️🇬🇧 Edit: i would choose this sargo over the targa, it just seems better thought out, as great as the targa is, sargo pips it to the post for me. 👍
@@Yachtbuyer Any idea why this video is (still) not showing up on my youtube subscriptions page (unless I select only YB)? I wonder if others are missing it...
Very cool boat (nice review), just can't think of a use for it (smuggling? Probably not--I hear that's illegal ). Guess I'll look for the next step up.
The 2-cabin layout is perfect. It's just not big enough for three couples with bathroom, shower, cooking etc. Really great boat. I would like to see an outboard option. Diesel outboards?
Still like it! Not the flash, but definitely the comforts! For people who do not need to be the center of attention the side show as it were, just to be out cruising!
Hi Jack, great tour as always, got a few questions for you. If you had sterndrives fitted would you still be able to opt for the joystick system also if you were ordering one of these would you have sterndrives or IPS and why? Thanks 👍
Yes, you can have the joystick with sterndrives but in my experience it isn’t quite as smooth as IPS, though it’s a lot better than it used to be. I’d personally go for sterndrives as you save a few quid and I prefer the handling. Plus you can trim them up in the shallows - Jack
@@jonnenne there currently isn’t a flybridge version of the Sargo 45 but as the other models in the range all have fb versions it’s likely they will do one for the 45
Lots of good ideas, however things like the raised storage in the cockpit to “put shoes or storage” is never gonna get cleaned (why most don’t do it) and the flip down foot rests at the helm seating are gonna break quickly, the little hinges won’t hold much weight be inevitably will. The use of all the gas struts to hold open windows etc will give out pretty quickly, as will the little arm rests at the dining table. The folding lawn chairs in the cockpit will wear out/mark/scar/eat up that finish on that deck quickly and they look chintzy for a £1,000,000 and decking is costly to repair or replace. The lifting mechanism dining table will wear quickly, and the fabric on the cushions, though looking beautiful, will wear quickly, tweed is not a durable seating material and will stain quickly from the inevitable spill (it’s a boat. There will be spillage). A leatherette or similar material would be much more practical, look great and spills won’t be an issue. The carpeting in the staterooms is a huge mistake (yes, I know, it’s snap in/easy in/out) the snaps inevitably foul, the carpet is hard to clean/traps dirt and hold moisture no matter how diligent you are in tending to it. A hard surface (real/synthetic) is a much better choice. The wood paneling, finished fiberglass walls are top notch, beautifully finished and make the spaces really feel luxurious and the light color gives it a sense of more room than what’s there, fantastic job. The engine room is a master class on accessibility/function and will make servicing a breeze, and when it’s time to repower you won’t need a chainsaw to get to them. The tv is in an awkward position and needs some sort of assist mechanism and at 32 inches is well undersized due to the distance from the seating area. A larger on in a televator in a bulkhead would be a much better option.
The Sargo 45 Explorer, offers a very clever layout, and storage solutions, but the lite colored wood, needs a darker wood for contrast. The Sargo 45, will be a great looking boat to be seen around the... fjords
What are you actually using such kind of boats for? I mean I understand the usage of 40-50s sailboats, smaller boats like bayliner. But what is the usecase of such size ?
My country has high humidity, so I would like to install two or more air conditioners. Also, I want to go to a remote island, so I want to add more fuel tanks. Do you have that space?
Read the full review of the Sargo 45 (including Rating, Rivals & Pricing) here: www.yachtbuyer.com/en/reviews/sargo-45-2023
But which would you buy, the Sargo or the Botnia targa 46?
What is the air draft (bridge clearance) for Sargo 45 model? I can't find the air draft spec in your review, is it suitable for inland europe waterways such as in france, thanks
The Mary Poppins of boats - practically perfect in every way. Excellent tour as well. Midweek lottery this evening, so everything crossed!
Knock on wood, friend!
Pilothouse doors,safe comfortable excellent bow seating,and also very important feature overlooked by most builders is the extended aft hardtop .Totally awesome boat!
Yep, it's important because nobody actually wants to just bake in sun damaging their skin, permanently covered outdoor space is must. Having sunbed at front is enough. It's also super good for solar panels.
Came for the 'boat I'll never afford' but stayed for the drone shots. Whoever's flying your drones for you is a bloody legend.
We love to hear it! Glad you enjoyed it 👏
Haha, thank you 😁
@@maritimefilminguk no worries. Was this shot an Inspire 3 with a camera and drone operator? So impressive how you keep the subject centred.
@@Andyhutchinson it was shot on the DJI Mavic 3 pro. So just myself flying/doing the camera. Jack is well versed at what moves to pull and some good communication means we get the shots we are after as efficiently as possible :)
@@maritimefilminguk bloody hell, even more impressive. Hats off to you. :)
Can I afford this boat, absoloutly not, am I watching, thinking, hmmm, this is perfect for me, should I buy it, absoloutly.
There’s no harm in dreaming!
word!
Outstanding. So thorough and the feel for performance is excellent. No questions. Just a perfect boat.
Boat of the year 2023 sorted - utterly outstanding practicality, economy, handling and overall usability
And hold the value🇫🇮
that drone footage is incredible. What an excellent vid. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!

That fully adjustable helm positioning is very very nice .
Seemed really good and unbiased review. My friend has propably done some wood parts in the boat. He is carpenter at Sargo.
Beautiful tour as always, thank you Jack!. Beautiful tour as always, thank you Jack!.
Glad you enjoyed it! - J
This reaffirms my belief following the previous video: this is my dream boat. Thanks Jack!
Excellent presentation sir. Calm, clear, concise, and a pleasant voice.
Thanks!

if this is a Million how much would be a 33 sell for?
@@billdeprospero8666 that is steep for a 33. i can understand 600 to 700 for a 36
Brilliant boat. I really can't wait until I someday own a poster of it.
😅
Fabulous drone shots!!
Beautiful tour as always, thank you Jack!
Great video. One of my favorite boats. The other is the Targa. They make great Chesapeake boats. The build Quality is outstanding

Always great to see the boats in action.
Channel is building very quickly whicb reflects the quality of the content. I can see breaching 500k subs in 18 months.
Now that would be great! 🚀
Thanks, Jack, another excellent review. As a professional mariner this would be the boat for me (if funds ever allowed!), but with stern drives.
Thanks for watching, glad you liked it 😊- J
Drone operator on point

Good job mate 👍
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks! - J
I don't know how many times I've seen this video....a damn beautiful boat.
What lucky cats and dogs and it's great that they get on together as they are all rescue animals. Love the house as well
🤔😬❤️
This yacht is as impressive as the review itself.
Amazing work. First time on this channel - subscribed half way through the video.
Great to hear, thank you! 🙏

Brilliant boat and great review.
Perfect boat for where I go boating and if budget allowed it’d be on the short list for sure.
I especially liked the washing machine, but would have liked more detail; brand; spin cycles; washing capacity etc 🤪🤣
could you show us it in rough weather so i can we can see really start to see and get a sense of how capable it really is.
Great content and presentation.
Great review as always
The boat is beautiful only problem I see is the Volvo 650 engine which here in Melbourne Florida the marina either send them out to be rebuilt or replaced due to heavy engine where strange that he’s replaced three within the past 15 months in Florida.

Hi. Between Sargo 45 and Targa 47… which one is a better boat? Thanks
Very nice!! And very practical, indeed!
Nicely shot video!
Wowww... What a great boat.
hats off good camara work with the drone
Great tour, Jack. Fabulous boats and, compared to most boats, very reasonable in price. In my opinion of course.
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks! - Jack
That Really is some boat, love it!
Dear god,wish i could afford any boat in this lifetime.. Amen. ❤
For a boat that size to get on plane at 15 knots is pretty impressive to me.
Yes itvis
Fantastic video
🙏
Love it!
would love to see what Sargo could do with an additional 10ft of length.
This is a way better deal then the sabre at3 million. Way better fuel economy for sure. This boat is a winner.
Magnifique bateau 👍
Finalement je le préfère au TARGA
Hi Jack, great tour as always, got a few questions for you. If you had sterndrives fitted would you still be able to opt for the joystick system also if you were ordering one of these would you have sterndrives or IPS and why? Thanks 👍
Joystick docking is available for the Sterndrives. Pretty sure IPS650 are the 480hp engines rather than the 440hp as shown on the graphic.
Yes, you can have the joystick with sterndrives but in my experience it isn’t quite as smooth as IPS, though it’s a lot better than it used to be. I’d personally go for sterndrives as you save a few quid and I prefer the handling. Plus you can trim them up in the shallows - Jack
Thanks for the reply Jack, exactly my thoughts about the sterndrives. Great channel and content, keep it up.
Will do, thanks for the support 👍 - J
Would have one in a heartbeat if I could more so if they did a flybridge version.
Great tour as always.
There is a fly bridge model or at least has been
@@jonnenne there currently isn’t a flybridge version of the Sargo 45 but as the other models in the range all have fb versions it’s likely they will do one for the 45
Stunning boat.
Perfect boat 👏🎉
Nice little boat.
What a machine!
This is absolutely on the short list when I hit the lottery and need a boat to get on and off my private island.
what an amazing deal, for 1 Mil EUR ex VAT. This is amazing value
Well, that's just the reality for something that isn't built in china
Great Review. Thanks Jack. Any news on the development of the boat? Will Sargo come out with a Fly Bridge option?
Lots of good ideas, however things like the raised storage in the cockpit to “put shoes or storage” is never gonna get cleaned (why most don’t do it) and the flip down foot rests at the helm seating are gonna break quickly, the little hinges won’t hold much weight be inevitably will.

I do like the practical angle of your comments.
Dream boat # 1 👊🔥🔥🔥
If that thing had some big ole livewells, fish boxes, outriggers, and rod mounts it would be perfect!
Would love to see a head to head with this and the targa 46
Which would you choose?
@@YachtbuyerI just watched the review you did of the 46 [still waiting for the sea trial ;)]., And I have to say I would go for the targa.
What a beauty 🥰
That is incredibly cool...
🤘
Can a Sargo 45 explorer be towed? If so what equipment do you need and how difficult is it to launch into the water?
No, it’s too big to tow and launch off a trailer.
The Sargo 45 Explorer, offers a very clever layout, and storage solutions, but the lite colored wood, needs a darker wood for contrast. The Sargo 45, will be a great looking boat to be seen around the... fjords
What are you actually using such kind of boats for? I mean I understand the usage of 40-50s sailboats, smaller boats like bayliner. But what is the usecase of such size ?
Perfect fisher for Norway's fjords...
How are those outside droneshots doen? With a mavic 3 or something faster?
Mavic 3 Pro 👍
Ok, I'm going to say to you what I always say to Nick at Aquaholics, what about an Elling E4? This boat does everything so please review it.
My country has high humidity, so I would like to install two or more air conditioners. Also, I want to go to a remote island, so I want to add more fuel tanks. Do you have that space?
I’m sure you can spec air-conditioning if required. The standard fuel capacity is 1,600 litres with the option to upgrade to 2,000 litres.
Please Check it in heavy waves. 😊 I‘m very interested in this experience. Very nice and modern boat.
