Been following this channel, I believe the best feature with this boat is the crew!
Capt. Paul has an Outstanding Crew. So Professional they can operate Million Dollar charters and still produce TH-cam videos at the same time. Amazing the talent he’s gathered around him and LOON.
The quality of a yachting experience has more to do with the yacht's crew than it does the yacht itself.
100% Agree with you
agreed
Agreed. I wanted Nina to cook for me. :(
Paul, the real reason Loon is a cash-positive charter vessel (a rare bird indeed) is you and the amazing crew you have built, not just the ship herself.
or it's a money laundering scheme =)
But that's partially because of their youtube channel, which doesn't follow the boat. You can't assume the same demand once it's sold.
@@zachansen8293
@@marvindebot3264 Rich people watch youtube, too. And for them it being a million dollar week doesn't phase them. It's the desirability of the crew not the "quality" per se.
If their kid says "I WANNA GO ON LOOOOOON" because they saw it trending on youtube, then they'll go on loon.
More people watch TH-cam than you’d imagine. @zachansen8293 you’re exactly right! Thank you 🙏
Thank you for posting this "For Sale" video with its very in depth look at the Loon, her amazing crew, and the areas we normally do not get to see. Hopefully, the next owner will allow this channel to continue.
Continuing on the new one....
No! the channel would continue on a new and larger Loon when they purchase it. This Loon when it sells and goes with different ownership and is renamed... will not have the same value it has currently if the current crew transfers to a 'new Loon'.
@@ronniemaynard8889 All good. We are on the same page.
This is most impressive display of a beautiful yacht and an amazing crew. I have seen every video and have appreciated the most professional crew that I have ever seen, that work really well as a team. Hope everyone continues forward.
When is the new LOON coming and how big will it be, but most important is the same crew coming to the new LOON? We can't live without you guys! the best yachting TH-cam channel ever ......by far so first class, so 7 star service and enjoyable... PLEASE keep making videos
She will come soon with the same and expanded crew.
I don't think they know what boat they're buying so they can't answer those questions. They'll see what's available after they sell the current one. They said in another video that's how they prefer to do it and if they don't sell they may just keep this one another year. Someone else who seemed in the know said it's already sold though.
@@zachansen8293 You don't buy one of this boats off the shelf. I can assure you the new model has been ordered/commissioned.
Aww, a very bittersweet video Paul. Loon is just gorgeous from stem to stern, my partner and I have loved watching all your videos from your time onboard her. Understand that time and needs change, and I'm sure we'll love the new Loon when she's unveiled. One of our main highlights is your wonderful crew, and I hope they follow you to new Loon for more glamorous, exciting adventures for us all to share with you 🤗
Paul has said the crew will all move to the new Loon when they have purchased it
Can’t wait for the new loon and to see what it brings in the years to come
Aww such a fabulous yacht and you all have done an amazing job, so many memories for you all on this lovely yacht, thankyou for taking us along with you all.
Thanks for the tour, Captain Paul! Loon is beautiful!
I really hope the crew will all come over to the new Loon.
They make this boat so very special.
The new owner of this current Loon buys an amazing vessel which we all love dearly. ❤
had to wear the good trousers for this one 😂
This was a big surprise. Wondereing what is happening to the crew and it's captain, and if a new Loon will appear??
There is a new loon coming, theyve already confirmed a new one, but not which
@@richardcook1987where did they confirm it
@@ryanmgitto1136 Previous videos and the crew will all move to the new Loon
@@ryanmgitto1136 paul has mentioned it in a few videos, I think its being built at the yards I think in sorrento?
Nothing. They move to the new Loon. Stay tuned…Captain has *promised* that we viewers will get to choose the new boat 🤣😜😝
It is very cool to finally see what the rest of the boat looks like. I can't wait to see what the new Loon boat will look like when you take over that one.
On a side note, sometimes it was difficult to hear you with the background music playing. There were times when you went really quiet and the music got louder.
Finally see? Everything has been seen before many times.
I saw this listing a few days ago. Good luck to all. Change is exciting, if scary.
upsizing to a new bigger boat is not scary - it means the business is thriving. good for them
@@nottheone582 You never know what the end result will be.. and looking at the yacht industry currently, "thriving" is not an accurate description.
Wow the interior is much larger than I had thought.. and I've been watching these vids for months! The interior spa areas, state rooms, master suite, owners office, private sundecks, etc.
A yacht with this amazing crew will always be Cash-Positive. :D Congratulations from Argentina!
Incredible yacht. Great to see that the owner(s) allowed for such great crew accommodations. Very rare I think. Whatever the future holds for all of you I wish you the best. Ive certainly enjoyed the very professional and entertaining videos you've produced. Thank you.
Great crew accommodations attracts great crew. The owner is smart.
Sorry to see her go, and I hope the best for all of her crew
Loon is as excellent as the crew who maintains her and it truly shows with this most fantastic tour. If only I had a couple more commas in the 💰account! I would buy this in a nano-second. ❤ ❤ 🍷
Why buy it when you could just charter it and not have to deal with owning a yacht?
Oh I do hope that Paul and the crew will continue on the Loon with new owners.Its beautiful but the crew are what make it special❤❤🎉🎉
The music over the talking was a little too loud, made it hard to hear what Captain was saying.
Wasn’t all that important, you didn’t miss much.
Amazing tour of a beautiful yacht.
This is a surprise to find the Loon for sale. A very impressive walkthrough, Captain Paul. This is one of the Best examples of a for-profit, Charter boat. Super clean engine room. The only indication of running hours can be seen on the exhaust housing. One has to wonder what the asking price is for this wonder of the seas.
I'm not sure of EU rules, but in the States, you pretty much would sell it every 7 years. Since it is a charter boat, you can depreciate it out- equipment depreciates to zero in 7 years, so I would assume a boat does the same thing. If it is your boat and you like it, you can always create a new LLC to buy it and start over...
It's listed on brokerage sites for $47.5m VAT paid with $13m income listed. Seems a good price. Just wonder if the crew are moving with the owner to a new yacht ?
Gotta believe they will have a new one on order.
@@woolyimage yes they are.. They did that when they bought this one.
So is this the end?
Captain Paul has mentioned in videos that Loon upgrades every so often. In fact. this Loon is Loon 2. An earlier, smaller vessel is still sailing around the cruise hotspots. It makes perfect sense to upgrade and update the main working asset of a cruise superyacht business.
I thought this was Loon 3 - one was 150 then 180 then this one
exactly, basically the whole point of their social strategy is to publicize the business to potential buyers. it works!
Love the Loons Journeys ♥️
Why is the music when the engine room is shown ~16:25 louder than the voice of the captain explaining what we are seeing?
Most likely noises of the generators or other equipment meant they recorded the captain's voice over and mixed it with music after the video recording.
It isn’t, I played it several times and no issues.
I hope the sale of Loon doesn't mean we loose this fabulous crew! We all live vicariously through them on your travels.
It doesn t, theres a Loon 4 comming
It’s very commonly for owners to upgrade or down sizing 😂😂so it should not be a surprise for the audience to see this for sale sign.❤and thank you for sharing.
Cant wait to see the next Loon, love your work Captain Paul
Lovely, but music too loud at the end when you entered the engine room
Cash positive on a charter yacht is very rare. The crew are phenomenal and make it a great place to be, that's why it does well.
If only I had the money, it's a no brainer.
thanks for keeping us company for so many great relax moments here in Bahia Brazil🇧🇷 you guys are the best!!!✨ ❤
Perhaps some backstory would be useful: Selling Loon and will there be a new Loon? When will the new motoryacht be ready? What is happening with the crew in the meantime? Are you scrambling to find other work?
Thanks for these videos --- which have been superb ---- and looking forward to seeing all of you on the new Loon!
In the meantime I hope all of you get some R&R -- wherever that may be! Cheers !
I agree, that would be helpful. It seems out of left field that this sale was going to happen. I wonder if the owners are feeling the pressure from owning this yacht and the cost of maintaining it. The owners probably wanted to cash out while they can and that is why.
they said it once they are looking to buy a new "Loon"
new loon is already close to being completed - paul has mentioned it in several videos previously. they have upsized and sold previous loons as well! part of the business model
@@claudiobaer9039 A new Loon maybe the Ace 21? Or a second hand one? The Ace is just 10m longer but has the double capacity.
Very nice. Yes you can tell the crew isn't coming with the yacht because Capt. Paul is clearly displaying the crew quarters to the next captain as well as displaying the guest spaces to the next owner. And of course if i were an owner, the last thing i'd want to do would be to give up my great crew!
Loon 4.0, here we come! Depending on whether the owner permits it of course. And we really do appreciate the owner graciously allowing us to follow along with Loon's adventures thus far...
Thanks for the great boat tour, didn't realize how much she actually offered. But at $47.5 million I need to hit the lotto first.
Annual operating costs for fuel, crew, taxes, and fees run about 7 million a year.
Great tour!
Steve, you might want to go in at about 15:57 and tweak the sound. The music is stomping all over Paul’s voice. tlyk
I agree.
Can’t wait to see the new one coming if she is for sale 😅😮
If we all put in a hundred bucks, and about a million people do it, we all can own a piece of it.
Let's do it! I am in for $100.
Lying in the Western Mediterranean, Loon is asking $47,500,000. VAT is paid.
Ahhh. But without the Looney crew, she’s just another boat 🛶
I loved the video captain Paul can’t wait for the next video John 😊
Great tour until the engine room. I couldn't hear Paul because the music was so loud. Good luck on the sale and hope the Captain and entire crew has a new assignment.
Can't wait to see the New Loon. Hopefully crew will come along onto the new Loon ? This was a quick,but full review thanks CPC
Why do you think there is a new Loon?
@@brianhearden459because Paul has said a loon3 is coming.
@@brianhearden459 every couple years they change up boats. I was already told this by Loon when I asked question a year or so back
@@jonathanscott550 Paul has already said they are looking for the new Loon and taking the crew with them
Why are they selling the loon?
I hope this means all of you are moving to a larger motor yacht. Please let us know.
Quite a surprise! Awaiting seeing her in Monaco this week!
I hope whoever buys loon is able to keep the crew together as they always seem to work well together, have fun and act as a real team. I always love and enjoy watching the videos. If only I were a billionaire, I would purchase the boat and continue the adventures.
Fascinating,,Great to see it in all it's glory..You guys are amazing..
Thanks for the tour! Enjoyed seeing the areas we don’t see on your usual videos. The ship is fantastic and the crew is amazing.
Fun to see a video that is aimed at a different audience. As a big fan I didn't expect to catch anything I had not seen before. I didn't know your pool had a drop tank! That's super cool function. Also that final aerial shot is fantastic to showcase Loon's potential to its future owner. I'm looking forward to the journey of sale and acquisition. --- If you are a potential buyer reading random youtube comments the maintenance and upkeep for this MY has been impressive.
keep safe ears loves. safe ear lobes. happy to see Loon upgrade, bigger huger, greater fun. enjoy have fun. peace
vegan lab grown things. glowy new Hyper Yacht, in the future a space yatch
Thank you for all the videos, it has been amazing watching this beautiful yacht and fantastic crew. I hope the new owner continues the charters.
As stressful this sale must be to the crew, one could not imagine. One would hope that the new owner would not interfere with what has been working well for some time. Best wishes to all members of the crew in your futures. My hope is that we will soon be blessed with new videos from this fine crew of this fine ship.
No doubt most if not all of the crew will be going to the new Loon, the same way they came with Paul from Loon 180.
Obrigado, for giving all of us a great journey. Muito Obrigado
That bridge is outstanding. I hope your new ship has something even better than that! This raises standards!
Thanks for the lovely tour. Saw parts I've never seen. She is a beauty.
Loon was built close to my house in 2010…in Harlingen, Friesland in the Netherlands 😊
I really hope the next owner let's the Loon series continue!!! Cheers Cap great tour!
Unreal
The loon series will continue with the same crew with a new yacht lol. Paul mentioned it. They all moved from Loon 180 to this one and will do the same for the new one.
@@AmandaMolly That is such a relief, I may have missed Caps message! Thank you Amanda!
Nooo, Guys i just hope its more charter and Loon vids on the horizon.. i love your channel and look forward to seeing where your at with your team Captain Paul… watching from N.Ire 😢
Been following this channel for a long time..... Hope to see capt Clark and his crew on another yacht soon......
Holy engine room music Batman!
Sorry Captain Paul the tour of your lovely ship was brilliant but when it came to the Engine room we couldn't really hear you through the music being to loud to understand what you had in there otherwise overall a good sell and look forward to seeing the next one thanks again 👍✌️🙏😊
It's a lovely boat, but it's this crew that makes this boat profitable. Great video and presentation. 🇦🇺 🦘 😊
i remember on one of your crossings we got to see inside Loon but never saw anything about the master floor, that is INSANE!!
One of the most beautiful vessels IMO.
Great tour Captain Paul
I am in shock, so what will happen to the crew? Please be sure to update us on them, if they stay or have to move to another boat. Wish I had the money, I would purchase it right away and keep the same crew.
Should’ve had David seal do this video lol he made me fall in love with the yachting world.
You mean the idiot I have to mute just to stomach his stupid videos? I will take Paul in a heartbeat for a tour not marked by stupid...
Me too. I first saw him in an interview with the Yacht Captain and loved his story.
Did I miss the part about the garage? To me that’s the wildest part of Loon.
I would give just about anything to spend a week on that boat. What a dream!!! If heaven was a boat *le sigh*
So hope these videos continue an all the crew an captain Paul will stay with Loon or go on to the new Loon absolutely awesome bunch an love ya all. Perfect team ,wishing you all the best for the future and hope you all have a wonderful time on the new Loon take care . How did Loon get her name ? Xxx ❤
There is no shot this boat is 14 years old...way too good of condition to be that old! Way to go Loon crew!
Doin refits... The oldest boat like that is around 160 years doin that.
I never knew it was possible to run these cash positive. Intriguing.
Looking forward to seeing the new Loon
Maybe the Project MISSION from icon nearly 50% more space, because Loon and Loon 2 was from icon. MY BATON ROUGE is an option too, shes shorter but has 10% more space.
I'm not sure how I'm supposed to feel about this video....
May Loon continue with a great crew and a new owner.
No, new ship
I won't miss the boat but will miss the crews especially the cooks.
Oh, you really should have included Nina in this clip, in the crew chef section. She's so amazing and an integral part of Loom and her success.
She might have been too busy liking the posts of the antisemite socialist she follows on Instagram.
The boats for sale not Nina + she’s currently on vacation in Australia 🇦🇺
@@motoryachtloon Neither is the other chef you showed. It was an old clip. Could have shown her.
The reason she can operate cash positive unlike many other vessels is not her features which are outstanding but her crew without a professional & competent crew she is nothing but a yacht, her crew make the whole booking a pleasant, fun, enjoyable and memorable experience...this crew from the Captain down must be commended they fit the brief and more...its sad to see Loon go but we can't wait to Loon II and all her wonderful crew graceing our screens soon
It's the team that makes the vessel. "Soooo, are you guys moving to a new ship or staying with her!!
New ship
I know this is Loon 2.0, and that anatother boat may be on the way, so are the Loon brand and media assets being sold or simply the vessel?
Looking forward for a new and bigger Loon 3 🚢
Wow, I love the content you and the crew provided. Guess we will have wait for the new Loon. See you at FLIBS if you'll are gonna be there.
I don't know about you Paul, but the real magic happens in the state rooms or the hot tub lol
Different sort of magic 🪄 😂
Sad to see her being sold, but excited to see the next Loon! Not sure if the new Loon has been purchased yet, but I would love to see vlogs of touring potential replacements. Think that would make for great content!
Very nice and Appreciated tour of Loon ❤
Interesting to consider what or how the social media presence influences either the sale of or the ability to charter at the necessary rate, but that aside, agree that the crew determines the level of experience that the clients receive and that this market is such that it must be absolute perfection. I;ve enjoyed watching the Loon since the current Chef joined and vote to keep her with the vessel as an essential employee.
Well, doing the math, it's making about $722k per month. It charters for an average of about $560k per week, so it looks like it's getting a charter about every 3 weeks. Now I would guess it is actually chartering an average of every 2 weeks and the owner is taking it out 2-4 times per year. 20% down, $47m asking, you're looking at about $300k per month to the bank, which leaves $400k to the crew, maintenance, insurance, fees, and a little left for your pocket. So basically, if you have $8m in your pocket, it's a free boat. You could probably buy it with an LLC, then sell it to another LLC you own for $55m, and get your down payment back.
not a bad investment, especially if you're a yacht lover. thow in 1-2 "free" trips for yourself (which you could probably write off as a business expense) and it almost pays for itself 😂
@@nottheone582 There's a couple youtube videos of millionaires who made their millions by doing this. They buy a cheap fishing charter boat, fix it up, charter it, buy another one, then a bigger one, then another bigger one, then start buying yachts. Not a bad life. There was one video of a guy from some eastern European country that came over to Miami 10 years ago with empty pockets and now has a whole fleet of yachts (smaller than this one, but still).
then why would you sell it then? math aint mathing up
@@VanillaIceCoffee because they're a scale-up. every few years they upsize their vessel to keep up with consumer taste and preferences, also ability to run larger charters=higher fees. customers at this level expect the latest tech, etc. which goes out of date every 5 years or so.
@@VanillaIceCoffee It's probably depreciated out. Maybe the owner wants to get out of the yacht business, who knows. Looking on the yacht trading website, they are full of inventory all of the time with yachts being passed back and forth.
She's beautiful.
As much the folk that follow Loon's and Nina's channels, And they are awesome, doubt anyone that follows could afford $47,500,000 (although VAT INC)
Man so sad to leave us on a cliff hanger of a new boat. Meet the crew in person in fort lautaudale really great nice people.
So many questions! Why are you selling? Are you still going to have your TH-cam channel? Is the crew going to stay together? I enjoy this channel so much. I do hope you continue to put out videos and take us along on the adventure!!!
Because the owner has to safe taxes, so he must buy a bigger one. Yes , yes...
This is an awesome channel. I hope the new owners keep you all on and allow you to create content, otherwise that f,n sux x
I hope that the new owners keep you and all the staff. If they’re veterans of the yachting world, they might have some of their own preferred people. But I hope they realize that a big reason why your charters have been cash positive is because of the team that handles them.
I'd get the Aquaholic channel to tour the vessel and make a video, he shows large yachts on the regular. This was a great comprehensive video, but I'd bring in Nick Burnham to get the extra eyes on the yacht from his channel and it will boost the Loon subscriber numbers as well. He often shows boats for Denison Yachting, a large yacht brokerage in the United States.
Great idea thank you 🙏
Great thank you for the tour Captain Paul 😉 So what about the next Loon version? 😂
For anyone wondering the price is €47,500,000
I think it’s only right if I build the next generation of loon! I saw she was for sale about a month and a half ago! I didn’t realize she would sell this quickly though! ❤🎉
Great tour. Never seen these parts of the yacht before. Is the owners cabin used on charters or kept for the owner visits.
Isn’t the Loon the same boat that the lovely chef does a TH-cam channel from called ‘TheCrewChef’ about her cooking and provisioning and various trips on it?
The crew che switched from fessel Arience 1 year ago to My Loon.
Is the owner upgrading to a larger vessel and taking the _Loon_ crew with him? Or is he retiring from the superyacht life? The tour was very good until you hit the engine room; the voice became muffled and the music became louder.
It would not be surprising that the crew would be on silent mode during the sale.
Saw the for sale ad a few weeks ago and was shocked.
