i am a worker in the construction team of the OT 60 in greece and i will tell you that the quality of parts and craftsmanship is amazing! all of as do our best to make it perfect!!
I always sing your praises Jack. However, it was in watching this video (after having just recently watched another reviewer) that I was struck again by the professional, intelligent, relatable and obviously knowledgeable way that you review boats. You are able to express your obvious experience with boats to your audience that clearly conveys ideas and educates us to boat life especially when it comes to the technicalities that one would normally only come understand by actually experiencing it. Thanks Jack!
What a beautiful BEAUTIFUL vessel she is. I am amazed by how well thought out, functional and beautifully appointed the guest areas are, how well designed and executed the engineering and mechanical areas are and how awesome the whole boat is. The perfect choice for a family to use for cruising the Med. Love it!
That interior space is outrageous for a 60 , and the airy ness is makes the vessel look muc much larger - and the range -and awesome fuel economy make this a special boat indeed-thanks for the review.
Which most people can’t afford :)…. If money is not an object though, id still go with those Finnish made build boathouse the cheapest one I can get brand new :)
@@Thhhgg838 Whenever you're going through your sofa, looking for "chump change", if you find it, I'm available to receive the $1.9 million, with this I have no... shame
I appreciate this boat. I am a minimalist and this yacht was one of the cleanest and least cluttered I have ever seen on the internet. Additionally, everything is laid out with minimal effort on a crew, captain, and guests, which is very impressive. It is not very difficult to understand why this floater won Boat of the Year! Congratulations.
Incredible. Stunning. As near perfect as you could get for 60 foot. Extremely good fluent commentary and tour.. and I think I’ve found my ideal boat; been looking for couple of years now. Amazing how they can sell them for £100,000! (Wish).
WOW!...not many deserve that word but this thing had been beautifully thought out and so so functional...i genuinely love it and from me that is extremely high praise.
As always, a great video review. As someone who has a Saxdor 400 GTC on order, a third of the price mind you, I’m so glad the wife hasn’t seen this video. I’m very impressed with this boat and as someone who in the past bought a Lagoon 56, all I can say is if I was doing it again, I would get a boat like this instead because I spent more time on motors than under sail.
good to hear. that was my exact thinking, with that range and fuel economy this could make sense over a large cat. I wonder how you might be able to deal with crossing the pacific from the US. You would need an additional tank. I wonder if it would be stable for ocean crossings without a sail to leverage.
Dear @@nextari, extra tank arrangement for up to 3,800 ltrs are available. The boat is very stable with minimal rolling due to low displacement, low COG and wide waterline length. It is also a category A boat.
@@OmikronYachtsbeautiful boat. How are you coming along on either a hybrid drivetrain and / or a bow kite? If I can ever afford something like this, I would want it to run on solar/wind/batteries at rest and for maneuvering. A bow kite could reduce fuel costs. The boat is already pricey, so these shouldn’t cost that much more as options.
One notable omission, from my perspective...comments on hull & deck construction/materials/layup would make this excellent review so much better. Some of us don't just buy the aesthetics of boats but also the underlying construction. If this is meant to be a long-range cruiser then confidence in the hull integrity would be top of mind for serious buyers. Thanks for listening! William in Singapore.
You think that is the entire boat, is there a clothes washer? Dryer? Water maker? Windlass and chain locker location? Heating? Cooling? Radar? FLIR? Electricity consumption? Generators/solar/wind? Cameras? Sat nav? Emergency fuel tank? Sounders and fishing lockers? Live bait tank? Wash down? Location and type of tender? To name a few, so not the entire boat.
That is a great boat, I thought at first it was a Catamaran with the beam of it, very spacious with a great layout, very bright and airy with great finishes, Great tour Jack thank you.
Hey Jack, you are really doing great reviews, well done, in depth, full of passion, your experience is valued and thank you for the wide variety of content. 😊
Omikron should rename it the Headroom Monster. Wasn't initially keen on the lower deck galley, but loving the spaciousness and airyness of the living accommodations.
I’m besotted 🎉 I often find myself favouring the interior and space of sailing cruisers, being brought up in the late sixties/seventies, numerous Broads adventures on fairly austere craft, even old then…… I’ve had a small sports cruiser and 33 knots clean was fun…….. but not for long. I longed for cruising, maybe it’s my advancing years, but I still ride motorbikes and drive a particularly fast car…… I absolutely love every aspect of this, the style, the obvious but subtle quality, the engines and technical installation. I didn’t see the price and it’s probably for the best as I doubt I could flog enough internal organs to finance it……. LOTTO 🎉 fingers crossed….
Beautiful and well thought out boat , an amazing amount of room for its length as well as superb economy and range, and yet another superlative review, thanks Jack
This jumps right up my list for singlehand liveaboard! Closest mono I've seen to a cat. I love the glasshouse saloon. Galley down always gives a so much more functional kitchen and real fridge without blocking helm views. Great that it doesn't have enormous helm seats blocking visibility. I would definitely have solar across the top for maximum hybrid operation. Be even better if the cockpit canopy extended further back for more solar. And a door at the helm. Bow crew cabin I'd make a workshop. You didn't touch on stabilisation? I assume gyro? Looks like you could beach it too for maintenance in the field.
Dear @ashleykerlin, up to 4.5 kW of solar can be fitted as an option on the roof. A door helm is not available but exterior helm for docking is available in the aft port quarter.
I do like this concept. Looks like its designed for sailors looking to move to power, without the desire to motor quickly. Run an engine all day, and spend $60 on fuel. Like the low profile which creates a very sleek nautical style - again akin to a beautiful sailboat versus the floating condo look of taller motor yachts.
This is a good boat. We all seem to be benfitting a lot from all the yards competition going on at the moment. In a few years people will want to swap their boats and the market will be flooded with more boats than customers so I can get one for cheaps!!!! Hurrah!
Phenomenal presentation, my first of this channel. The cameraman disappears as we are invited to an intimate, detailed, and respectful tour. This is actually the first motor vessel I've considered over a sailing yacht. 1 liter per nm is astounding. My only question is if the galley atrium comes at the cost of other space, but that would have to be seen in person. The one other concern was the escape hatch for the master suite appears to be on the side, due to it's height. I suppose if there's one on each side, it's good enough. Great show!
This would be in my shortlist if I’d me in the market for a ~2 million yacht. The only thing it seems to be missing is a washer/dryer, hope that’s an option.
This boat will sell bucket loads. Very rarely these days do i ho wow, but wow. This to me is perfect form over function. You could travel for weeks on this.
Wonderful yacht - could imagine spending summers cruising around Europe in this for a few months every year. I’d want to ditch the be spirit though 😬 Great tour Jack and team, as always.
Such a cool boat. The sea trial video of this boat is great too. This boat's only downside is it really needs front wiper blades because of the straight hull sides - so v2.0 might flare this hull more - but in every other way its a brilliant design and build.
Omikron's OT60 deserves all the accolade it has received, and won "boat of the year 2024" Although in my humble opinion, the lite colored woodwork needs more contrast. The addition of solar panels and an electric motor, would make the OT60 near... perfect
@@OmikronYachts Thanks for addressing the query, what an impressive range for an impressive vessel, definitely it will be on the list. Looking forward for future encounters. Thanks
Beautiful boat well suited to a long Med cruise with daily port-to-port segments. For offshore, Robert Bebe would likely have some objections. Two come to mind: The broad flat hull likely has much initial stability but a very sharp roll motion at sea. And a safe night watch would require complete lights-out in the galley area. You might resolve this with a kind of roll-out light-proof awning over the galley. Without this the night watch would be a nightmare of reflections from all of that wonderful glass. (To be seaworthy, that glass should be virtually bullet-proof, of course.)
Your walkthroughs are excellent and to the point, well done! Fascinating boat. Is this the 1st motor launch they have built and if so have they seen or shared improvements they would make from feedback received. Thank you.
Thanks for the kind words, Gary, I’m glad you liked the review. We’re hoping to sea trial the boat later in the year so will find out then if they have made any changes - Jack
there a boat just like this in chicago that I see everyday when I go to my daily run. god it’s so uniquely built boat it stands out from the other boats in marina.
The boat is very nice indeed. Love the look. The layout is cool. Yet for me, the guests cabins could be the same, singles that could come together to be a double or both singles or doubles. Would like at lease double range. Finally, “wide side decks” takes away from the interior portion of the 18’ beam. Narrower side decks or a 1/2 wide body, and engine options would cinch it. ❤
Like this one , nice to do a lazy long distance trip around the Med or wherever really , like the layout very thoughtfull , not sure what I would change
A bold realisation that challenges our preconceptions and redefines our understanding of the utilization of space by subtly melding two apparently disparate traditions of design in order to create an exciting new class of vessel.
It appears well constructed, and “unique” I guess. Oh let’s be honest, it’s a homely looking tub. There are so many beautiful yachts available in the 60’ range, unfortunately this isn’t one of them. If you hadn’t told me, I would have guessed it was a quirky French design. Thanks for the walk though.
Très intéressant ce bateau, enfin ça bouge,une nouvelle ère arrive, des bateaux très bien conçu pour le voyage ; sinon parfaite présentation où l'on n'a pas négligé la salle des machines comme trop souvent..Bravo !
How might one get a boat like this from USA to South Pacific? Probably best to ship it there on cargo boat. With the shallow draft, it's probably not stable enough for crossings as you don't have a sail to stabilize. You need about 3k nm range to hop from LA to Hawaii to Marshall's. Crazy idea but I wonder if you could mount spare tanks on the swim deck. 2,000 ltr fuel = 3k pounds/ 1.5k kg - plus tank weight so it would probably need structural integration.
Dear @nextari, range of up to 3,000 Nm with optional tanks of 3,800ltrs is possible. The boat is really stable due to its very low COG and wide waterline.

as long you can not cross the atlantic with it then its short range and pointless and thats why a sailboat is still the king at this size

WOW Jack you're right this design screams sailboat!!! Great yacht class A rating too!
It's actually a really nice thought out boat. It's perfect for coastal cruising. I love the small motors and the range you get.
The atrium is like in Lazzara's. Beautiful design and interiors. Great review, Jack.
Wow! A monohull with, close to, catamaran space. An impressive vessel indeed.
My thoughts exactly, which makes it a easy winner
i think thats a great boat design. So much space in the cabins and nice layout. Very impressed with that
One notable omission, from my perspective...comments on hull & deck construction/materials/layup would make this excellent review so much better.

If this is meant to be a long-range cruiser then confidence in the hull integrity would be top of mind for serious buyers. Thanks for listening! William in Singapore.
A really nice job explaining the entire boat. High faucets in the galley sink. Great when you’re washing a huge stock pot.

Same reason I watch Japanese porn.
Awesome boat and less than $1.5 M is impressive too. Great tour! Thank you for the insight 😊❤️
Thanks for watching!
It definitely has a sailboat vibe, yet it is much brighter!
What a great boat I hope they are going to make a range including a 4 berth version. I do wonder what it will be like on anchor.

Absolutely stunning.
every tip you gave was right on point! thanks a million!
Good to see sailing yacht technology on a motor yacht. Great tour and boat.
My favorite this year so far
Beautiful Yacht, Clever Design, I want One✌❤🤗
I like high bulwarks, and more fuel capacity would be nice. Interesting though. That top speed with such small engines low fuel usage, is amazing.
This would be in my shortlist if I’d me in the market for a ~2 million yacht. The only thing it seems to be missing is a washer/dryer, hope that’s an option.
She's built to be a liveaboard.
There has to be an option for a W/D
Dear @FinnishPanther, washer dryer fits as an option in the aft stbd WC or the shower room in the forward cabin.
Axopar is another great option.
Seriously impressed.

I wouldnt change a thing .....its spot on
It's fairly rare to see genuinely novel design (for the better) but, for the market it's aimed at, it's an excellent proposition.
Love the design. Curious what the double faucet is on the galley sink?
One is fresh water and the other is salt water.
Excellent tour and review 👌
Thanks 🥕🍰
Crikey Jack! Someone's pinched the mast!! :)
😄
Thanks Jack! Interesting. Never seen one before..
What is the compass doing offset like that?
Forward seating would be nice with shade. I assume a larger salon would be possible at the expense of the rear deck.
