Thanks to all for watching this 3-part Atlantic crossing series. Was great being behind the camera for a little bit, but Stevie is back and it’s time for me to take that deckhand title back from Davey!
This is definitely my favorite channel on TH-cam! I know nothing about yachts, I live on a cattle ranch in the middle of nowhere Arizona and I find this whole lifestyle fascinating. This crew is brilliant, professional and crazy fun. The teamwork is incredible. Keep the videos coming!!!!!
I will volunteer as tribute to play the dead, wounded or drowning person in all drills for a ride on the boat. That way the whole crew gets to contribute! Win win!
You can't lose Dean. One day he'll start postimg on his channel again and regain his status as a former icon....aboard a former Icon. That's kismet? Lol. Love Dean. Even thouffh he sleeps in a freezer but he is amazing. He broke his leg not too long ago as well. Getting tipsy in Greece.
Hey Dylan excellent job there man!! Was great being on board the MY Loon via our Lounge recliner chairs. The whole crew is so professional and good to see that the Captain and Chief gave you guys bit of a swim time before the start of the hectic charter season. Great to see also that the muster went well good time to trial before the charter guests board. Do you also do a pre charter safety drill with the charter guests. Good onya Captain Ben, we didn’t see too much of you but what we did was great, good to see that the crew respects you. Well guys until the next episode be safe, take care and God Bless you all. 😇👍🛳️
I just caught the 3 part Atlantic crossing, enjoyed seeing things from the crews point of view, however since their was no other people on board, it would have been nice to see what guest accommodations were like, how many guests can the yacht accommodate, does the owner’s suite stay empty when the charters are on board or is it used by the person who chartered the yacht?
Awesome video. Thankfully you all had actually a really good crossing. I guess the Tender will actually be picked up next video once the work on her is complete. I was hoping to meet the new Sous chef as you did say you were picking her up. Okay until next video later
I assume the cars you have in different ports are all rentals coordinated by your management company. The more I think about it the more your logistics of running such a boat get more and more complicated...
Thanks for sharing I spent many nights in palma Mallorca.. Daiquiri palace right on the beach. Oh the days Really looks fantastic from the at sea view I was surprised the drone was able to hide and not get liberated
It's been mentioned a few times on this channel that there are differences in the chase boat rolls between the Caribbean and the Mediterranean that define your choice of boats (HCB vs Anvera). It would be interesting to hear a little more about that. Is it just that the Anvera functions more as a "water limo" and the HCB is more of a fishing/dive boat or is there more to it than that? Are fishing and diving not popular activities in the Mediterranean?
Damn I was confused for a second there about you just getting back to the med and already releasing the F1 videos but I am glad you released them when you did
The problem is the Spanish government make it extremely difficult for foreign flagged vessels with foreign crew (like Loon) to charter in Spanish waters.
@@motoryachtloon crazy. Spain is in most aspects the most business/tourism/expat-friendly country in the western Med. Are there other places you would like to go in the region that are difficult to arrange?
fit sittin sideways.... thats no dingy either. i see why you are impressed. "sea of man o war and abundant wildlife feasting.....BUT hey hey hey check this out"
I´v never seen an Owner or Guest on Board. Ist Loon a Charter Yacht, or does it belong to a priv owner? Was crossing the Atlantic for a ferry or whats the trip about?
To Patreon Complainers: Patreon is not meant to be equitable... it is elitist. Maybe some money goes into the crews' pockets. But it is mostly paying for video production. Crew is already well paid. Tips alone are double my salary. I doubt they pay tax since (I think) Loon is registered in the Cayman Islands. Plus, they have no expenses. Patreon exists because Loon wants exclusive content for wealthy people to feel special. After all, they are potential clients. Most of us will never come close to a yacht.
Not completely true. The patreon exists to offset production costs and for us to give more raw and uncut exclusive content to our super fans. The YT channel has huge expenses in equipment and post production and it is our aim to have the channel fully self supported. All remaining funds go directly to the crew kitty for experiences like the helicopter ride that we did a few months ago. We do appreciate everyone and don’t plan on holding any content back from YT. And we’re still here answering questions 😎
Where is the Patron money going? Because I gotta be honest, I'm not too interested in giving money to a corporation that has enough money for a yacht like this. They clearly already have enough money. But if it's being an additional amount of income spread across the crew as a bonus, I'd be more onboard with that 😊
Currently all the YT revenue is going g back into the channel and some. It’s not as much as people think. Eventually if it ever becomes profitable it would go into crew budget for adventures.
Patreon? You do realize that just a week's worth of your tips is often more than most people bring home in a month. It's very strange to see a luxury boat being tied to a fundraising platform like this. Especially if their employees are supplementing their income with it. Or are you trying to tell us the boat's owner needs help? It's not a good look.

You rocked it Dyl! Thank you for the last 3 weeks of content!
Outstanding! It’s amazing how you zeroed in on the most interesting details to highlight. I could watch for hours.
Great Job Dylan! Nice shots and perfect editing!🎥
Top notch job Dylan. Stevie has to step up now!
Small question here, how do the bow mooring lines work. In Imperia they went into the water, do they have any marking for grabbing them?
Camerawork and editing is of a much higher level than lately! Well done.
Dylan has been crushing it. Giving Steve a run for his money for sure!
Very well done, including staying out of the drone crashing club
@@robertmcleod2337Blair owns that title.
Yes, totally agree 👍
@@coachster no one cares about him. you people are so fkin weird

Davey seems to be much more comfortable around the Camera. He did a great Job filling in for the Captain as a Narrator.
I was just thinking this ! Has become a fantastic presenter... filling the spots with information... Captain Paul will have a run for his $$$ soon 😊
Another fun video to watch. A charter on a yacht like that is a dream of mine.
Deviating from the planned route to sail closer to a land mass certainly worked out for Costa Concordia..
Haha yep..
Loving the camera work. Before the subject of the discussion was barely shown, now we get plenty of shots. Awesome change.
I will volunteer as tribute to play the dead, wounded or drowning person in all drills for a ride on the boat. That way the whole crew gets to contribute! Win win!
So good portraying the serious amount of work crew do. It’s a vocation.
You can't lose Dean. One day he'll start postimg on his channel again and regain his status as a former icon....aboard a former Icon. That's kismet? Lol. Love Dean. Even thouffh he sleeps in a freezer but he is amazing. He broke his leg not too long ago as well. Getting tipsy in Greece.
What I think Paul does really great is switching mode from serious mode to fun mode and vice versa
This channel should be at a million subs already. Let's go people!! Tell your friends!!
Very impressed with the fire drill response. If I could afford it I would cruise with you.
Thanks so much for watching this epic video. Lovely crossing and Imperia looks amazing as a base. I have joined the Patreon.. awesome guys 🥳🎉🎉🎉
Sonja has the kindest eyes! @1:56
Klara has the kindest..... never mind I'll show myself out.
Love the 80's synth vibe right out of the gate!!!! Hell yes!!! Cheers all you Loonatics! Awesome Vid as always!

Passed you guys last night heading into Split. Enjoy this beautiful weather after yesterday’s storm.
Very cool! Yea today is much nicer than yesterday. 😎

Stunning views
Pizzeria L'Oasi is a great restaurant for the crew near the port at Imperia. Check it out next time if you can! Thanks for the videos.
Amazing thank you! We love advice like this 🛥️🍕🍻
Thanks for sharing
I spent many nights in palma Mallorca..
Daiquiri palace right on the beach. Oh the days
Really looks fantastic from the at sea view
I was surprised the drone was able to hide and not get liberated
Have a great season!! Looking forward to following along!
Another great video. And looks like the quality is improving as well.
Fascinating insight to the work involved.
Absolutely great video... thanks crew 😊
When you're in open waters, so not close to land, do you see many other vessels?
Fabulous
this boat is EASILY one of the sexiest on the GLOBE!!!!!!!
Ben and crew great and safe sail across the Atlantic.
❤ subscribe and come back often. When you want to watch something that fills your ❤ with happy goodness, then absolutely look no further. Cheers! 🍷
Great job guys very much enjoyed watching the crossing ⚓️❤️⚓️
Yay! Paul's back!! 😄😄
been finding you sailing the Adriatic on Marine traffic....love your videos....keep them up
For the Atlantic crossing, do the crew to get to spread out their quarters and use any of the guest suites?
No the crew stay in their cabins. It’s creates more work for us if we move into the guest cabins so it’s easier just to stay put 😎
does captain ben only do the crossing?
No he’s doing some charters later this season also
great crew

This Thursdays video is all on the Anvera stay tuned 😎
@@motoryachtloon That's great! By the way I love the channel, great job!
Oh super interesting point! I never even thought about that! Would love to know too. Like a video comparing the two
What does it cost to take loon across the Atlantic? Fuel, food, crew, ect. just curious
Wow great
I noticed the explorer yacht Genesia moored next door but one to you in the marina. Awesome ship.
Imperia, là où j’habite et où j’ai mon voilier….❤️❤️❤️😃😃😃👌
15 sunfish in one day??? I'm hoping to see just one in my entire life. Guys, please appreciate your journey and experiences.
Damn I was confused for a second there about you just getting back to the med and already releasing the F1 videos but I am glad you released them when you did
Chief Officer Davey still reminds me of a James Bond villein!
Happy to be a Loonie
Love your vlogs ❤️
Love your comments 🛥️☺️
best of luck 👍🏻
I love Mallorca! Grew up there ❤
Such a cool island the crew were begging to stop in Palma for a few days
@@motoryachtloon
A few days is never enough in Mallorca. I’m surprised there aren’t many charters to Mallorca. Venture outside Palma for sure
@@shelley1955That surprises me, too. It’s a perfect high-end destination.

@@motoryachtloon crazy. Spain is in most aspects the most business/tourism/expat-friendly country in the western Med. Are there other places you would like to go in the region that are difficult to arrange?
What’s the roughest sea state you’ve had Loon in? Love the videos.
fit sittin sideways.... thats no dingy either. i see why you are impressed. "sea of man o war and abundant wildlife feasting.....BUT hey hey hey check this out"
oh you should have said hello passing by the island. 😅 next time you are on mallorca, will bring some cold beers. whoop whoop.
Hey Judy- Uncle Dean here x
Supperb 😍
I'm new. So enjoying this. For the amount of crew I didn't see any passengers. What am i missing?
This was the trans Atlantic passage. So there are no passengers onboard 🛥️😎
Nice
What is the yacht tied down to on the front when it was docked?
have you guys thought about merch (specifically those hats the crew have)? Would love to rep loon in Minnesota!
Merch would cheapen the brand...
the worlds best deep water climbing is off that coast of Majorca
How do you get the forward lines onboard the yacht when docking like this? Great episode ❤
i wonder how much it costs to refuel
Any reason / special tie to South Africa as a lot of the crew seem to hail from there? Lekker, ek se!
Respect ⚓️🍸
Can we just keep Dylan as videographer?
Yes
I agree!!
What the fuel left after showing up to destination level wise
Actually that’s be interesting to know especially after watching the refueling process
I´v never seen an Owner or Guest on Board. Ist Loon a Charter Yacht, or does it belong to a priv owner?
Was crossing the Atlantic for a ferry or whats the trip about?
We purposely don’t show any guests to protect their privacy 😎
❤
I see a lot of Scubapro branding ( and nobody else). Do they sponsor in any way?
careful jumping. keep safe

Roll Call ? How often do roll calls happen ?
Who thinks motor yacht loon needs a blue hull I think they would defy make her stand out
great thumbnail
How i can make reservation on loon yacht?
you can't afford it.....
keep peaceful
Turn around - Nina’s shopping in Florida.
Imagine coming back and the boats covered in bumper stickers
Do not want to be in the anchor room....scary
