I wish I could be there James Exceptional job by your crew…. Please please film as much as you can for us in the states…. Enjoy your week looks fabulous great work!!!
Went to boat show today had my socks on wife had both gin and tonics. THE 58 is stunning boat so much space on board. All the fairline staff there were so friendly and loverly to speck with. There was no problem in getting on any of the boats. In fact they asked you if you would like to come on board. Unlike sunseeker and princess Apontment only and staff not really interested in you. Well done James you have a great team behind you
Sad to be missing this show as getting close to looking for one of those odd ones with a Mast Floppy Cloth bits and lots of String going everywhere, But hoping your entire Team has a Brilliantly Successful Show, So Best Wishes, Full Beer Kegs and other nice S Drinks. Bob in Wales, who just might be Afloat in a Boat again Next Uear WooHoo ! 🤔🌟🌟🌟👍❤️
I am so excited that I got my socks coming. Unfortunately I'm on disability and have 3 kids to support, so I won't be able to come hang out, if you want to fly me out there though, I will gladly work whatever yacht booth you want me too amd will sell yachts for you all weekend. Just let me know when the next show is and I'll clear my schedule. Yes, you would habe to pay for my airfare and hotel, but I'll buy my own food and sell the heck out of any boat brand.
See you on the 18th! For reference 1. I'm browsing (but please don't go away!) 2. Plan is for south coast, 3-4 people, and a toy 3) Budget in mind 4) Next season :)
Great line-up this year for sure james and Great to see the phantom name back I'm the range.My dad bought a 32 back in the 70s was a fantastic boat kept chi marina
It’twas the night before Christmas 😂 very entertaining .. I came across your channel through Nick… keep it up 👍🏼 I think your numbers will grow and grow ❤ fantastic professional Buisness good luck
Great video, like all your others. Sitting here on a hot sunny day in California wishing i could be at the show to look at the incredible boats. I’m wondering if i should sell my home and try the live aboard lifestyle! Keep them coming!
Great to see you yesterday at the show, thanks for the gin and tonic, but you need to educate the girls on the stand with the floss test. 😂😂😂. Socks arrived today too thanks guys. Look forward to the next tour keep them coming 👍👍
"Oi James, get the gins in!!" Your set up looks amazing and hope that you have a great show 👍 Sorry that I haven't been on for a while ( lets just say 2024 hasn't been great 😢) PS, can't believe that you haven't got a bike on the Kawasaki stand ( bikes and boats..... best toys on the planet 😃), think you may have taken your eye off the ball son 😂😂
I can confirm that the sock game was on point today and as the man said himself to another person, not as fat as he looks on camera! Pleasure to meet you today in person thank you for the videos, enjoy the show!
Really keen on Merry Fisher 795 series 2.. any chance you could do a review and running costs on an early model. No-one does that detail like you guys. PS when I buy one I will hide you when my wife comes after you.
I can be a good salesman. I know all about holdback, incentives, dealer decks, tax write off, destination fees, documentation fees. Obviously I'm not really doimg sa,especially, just getting them excited to buy, but I can come in there znd start getting them ready excited
HOW much GIN-TONIC , have you ? as I will bring the wife and her CHEQUE BOOK . She will have a great hangover , you'll have a great show and I'll have my new boat , must be full of fuel as I head off ,down the sea way before her statement comes through the letter box . 😉👍DEAL OR NO DEAL👍
There must be more money wasted on boats than anything else, just an observation as I regularly drink/eat at the restaurant/bar overlooking my local marina. Guess what, it's only once in blue moon that anybody uses one of these craft that they have flung a small fortunate at. That old quote, 'the two best days of a boat owner are, the day they buy it and the day they sell it''. Its actually similar to those who buy a massive motorhome or static caravan/lodge. Once the initial excitement is over (2 to 3 years sometimes even less) they become a millstone round the owners neck because they have not pencilled in the maintenance cost all that well. I always fancied a boat, ( along with motorhome and a static ) and last year one of the locals told about a bargain, a 2010 Beneteau Antares 30 going for £76,000, it was immaculate. It was immaculate because it had never been used. And just before I shelled out common sense struck and I missed the bullet.
@@Boatscouk That's whole point they don't. I've got a Porsche Boxer track car with a race hardened forged Cayman engine installed, roll cage, massive upgraded brakes, suspension. Guess how many times I have used in the last ten years? seven times and if I had bought the boat that would have been the same. In my youth I worked inshore on a long line boat , the three best parts of the day were leaving the harbour and then re-entering it, the best was the pub after it but it wouldn't have been as good if we hadn't been out at sea that day. Most the guys that have boats in the marina seem to be in the bar a lot talking about their boats but they miss out the going to sea part.

Great preview as usual, bit far to come from the Philippines but will be watching all blogs.
@@julesforsyth2996 😂
That is a very impressive line up, looking forward to your upcoming show tours.
James, here's hoping you have a profitable show, a good time visiting with customers and a tasty G&T when time permits. Wish I could join you.

Welcome aboard!

@@Spyder15 one of our USA customers sold up in Palm Springs and bought a body from us and is cruising the med 😄
Great to see you yesterday at the show, thanks for the gin and tonic, but you need to educate the girls on the stand with the floss test. 😂😂😂. Socks arrived today too thanks guys. Look forward to the next tour keep them coming 👍👍
@@Devinekinghter floss test Tuition coming ! 😂
@@Boatscouk I think you should get them doing it on a tour 😂😂👍
"Oi James, get the gins in!!"
Your set up looks amazing and hope that you have a great show 👍
Sorry that I haven't been on for a while ( lets just say 2024 hasn't been great 😢)
PS, can't believe that you haven't got a bike on the Kawasaki stand ( bikes and boats..... best toys on the planet 😃), think you may have taken your eye off the ball son 😂😂
I will be there @ 21st
Very enjoyable - tks
Love it 🫶🏼
Pricey those inflatables, Off to the Parker stand me thinks to talk to Dan. Dan the Parker Man.😃
Those are like full on boats vs tender though.
I wonder why sail boat designers are soooo much better at designing beautiful looking boats?😉
Looking forward to the day I can come to the show with a wallet full of cash and barter with you James!
@@MrArchie800 ready when you are 👍🏻
I wish i could join you from Canada.
🥳
Got my fingers crossed for lotto tonight…..I’ll come and get that GT45 if that’s ok
I can confirm that the sock game was on point today and as the man said himself to another person, not as fat as he looks on camera! Pleasure to meet you today in person thank you for the videos, enjoy the show!
True 🥳
Tent? I’ve never been camping in anything like that 😂
Don't CARE ABOUT your hospitality TENT...I'm maybe buying something!

@@richwhilecooper will look
@@Boatscouk Really appreciate it. Looking at one as my first foray into boating. Looks far more fun than a caravan!
Sir, stop leaning into the camera, as i watch this on tv and you are frightening my dog.
@@tyson2964 😂
Nervous Nigel .. flustered .. 😂😂😂👍🏴.. fair'LIIII'IN FOREVER 👍🏴
We want bud....we want bud! 🐶
Looking forward to seeing you - I didn't get any socks - can I still have some gin please James!!?? Be there on Monday and Tuesday!!
👍🏻
SEEYOU ALL ON THURSDAY .👍
Where’s me soxs 😊
Brill. You have pre owned. Do you still get into the gin tent with £150k ???
@@philmcmaster2770 yes of course 😄
Why is it in September instead of maybe July or August when the weather is a bit better?
@@stefanjagger everyone is boating then 😝
Ah yes, good point ☝️
I can be a good salesman. I know all about holdback, incentives, dealer decks, tax write off, destination fees, documentation fees. Obviously I'm not really doimg sa,especially, just getting them excited to buy, but I can come in there znd start getting them ready excited
Looking forward to my socks
This video has every reason why you shouldn’t own a boat in the uk
A dinghy made out of rubber for 100 k?
Oh yeah, those Williams boats. You pay a lot for the fit and finish which is all customisable to match your £10+million yacht with its own garage.
HOW much GIN-TONIC , have you ? as I will bring the wife and her CHEQUE BOOK . She will have a great hangover , you'll have a great show and I'll have my new boat , must be full of fuel as I head off ,down the sea way before her statement comes through the letter box . 😉👍DEAL OR NO DEAL👍
