If only I had an extra 35 or 40 million USD to bring this boat back to life

Nice boat

This poor yacht has been violated to the extreme by its owner and is in dire need of a total refit from stem to stern and top to bottom.

Ya need to tell us a boats range at displacement speeds . Nice boat but more details needed in vids . . 👍🍻🇳🇿twa

Is she aluminium?

It lacks the finishing required for a $9M yacht. No one with that kind of money is going to buy an old fixer for that price.

beautiful ship.

Cudo.

bottom line if your going to spend a million why not just buy a luxury cat smaller but cheaper to operate, this still nee a lot of cash but still nice old girl thanks for the walk through

What's the average working life of a boat like this before scrap?

great yacht, no refit, just clean & paint ( hull blue, white top) teak deck fix, will get you into the market for sale...

Unique Bannenberg design destroyed 😢

I took a second look at this and to my surprise , I really like it, it grows on you!! I would worry for the costs of maintaining this vessel, however if it could be done I would refit it in a Viking theme and charter it to Iceland and Scandinavian oceans , it would be perfect!

you talk too much. When you open the door into the main cabin from the main head, you say "and now IM opening the door back into the main cabin" You don't need to say it... Just open the damn door, and walk in. I can tell that you are back in the main cabin.... by the fact that you are in the main cabin

I would rename it to Bart Reynolds and put his face next to the name.

Unique design before now utterly generic and boring. Who would shell out 10m USD for this when you can get a newer boat like a Nordhavn Aurora 120 for similar money. It will not sell near that price. Shame for all the work that went into it.

I preferred the old design. It was special. The new silhouette is fresh, but it looks inside like some 80-90s Motel. Newly build and already outdated design.

Wow it sounded like an airport with the air conditioning. I was looking foward to this one, wide beam, style of bow but what a letdown with the interior colours, finishes, heads, storage ect... Sorry to say. Different strokes different tastes I guess.

Agorahthea was that not hitchikers to the galaxy?

Where are the rod holders. How you gonna fish off that thing

What a lovely vessel, another great video sir.

Would be a fantastic expedition ship to travel the world hunting & fishing setting to shore only for provisions and fuel. I dig it just as it is. Now I know what a converted naval ship looks like.

Nice work so far by Ocean Technical and the naval architect. That was one ugly boat.

Nice ferry....

I liked the original yacht better

Great presentation Eliad, thanks! I’m sure the yard has also done fantastic work; Türkiye has been under appreciated for the magic that happens there. I can’t say the same thing about Ocean Technical who decided to butcher Azteca to do a fast flip. There is absolutely no truth in their attributed statement “We wanted to retain the Bannenberg feel but bring it to a modern day where it is more practical and usable - whilst retaining the respect to Jon."

It's hard for me to understand why you wouldn't just wait until until the refitting is completed to do a walk through. I'm no professional, but if the purpose of the video is to sell the boat, wouldn't it make sense to show it completed and looking It's absolute best?

I like your videos, and all the info. I appreciate you trying so hard to get the English right, and for the most part you do a very good job of it. But if I may, there's one thing I'd like to help with. In the crew quarters, when you describe their sleeping arrangements, the word is BUNK beds, not bank beds. U as in umbrella.

I think the renovation is a failure! It should have been kept completely original. Just updated everything, and it would have been fine. This is just sad.

That would have been a refit I would have liked to run.. So much potential there.. Your english is very good by the way.. I always enjoy coming here especially when the boat is undergoing a refit.. Carry on!

Thanks for the tour wel done .where can we see the before video .

WOW I like it !

Fascinating if you've watched the first video. I like most of the changes. Some see the forward skylight as a loss. In real life that would have been a salt spray-clouded disaster most of the time, imo, as well as an HVAC nightmare. I'd rather have my crew keeping me safe and comfortable, not washing windows. That wide staircase at the stern will be great in the Med, etc. Not so sure about rougher waters. Probably why there's no typical double-door access to the salon/saloon ? Two things I'd definitely change; the solid bulwarks outside that great sky lounge; why have those huge windows if 2/3 of the view is blocked ? And the wood flooring in the galley & crew areas seems like a well-intentioned mistake. Ironic that it makes the crew area more pleasing to the eye (probably quieter, too) but much higher maintenance for them. Otherwise, fantastic crew area, though. That engine room is amazing. Classic Feadship engineering & design. Never seen Mercedes generators on a yacht before.

Wow!! What a beautiful refit, they left the beautiful wood grains with the marble and modern touches, wonderful job!!

I enjoy your presentations alot. While for me it's interesting to see the yachts unfinished and in the process of refiting, I think presenting it after it was completely done would have been better. Maybe it's just my instincts speaking to me since I am from a country where "this and that will get fixed and get done"means "this is how it will remain".

I thought it was the finish product after the refit we were going to see, can't wait to see the finish re fit

Nice boat. Hade made it fully electric

Most of all is battery fuel consume and so on and on

............IL EST TRES MAL AGENCE CE BATEAU !!!

20kw of solar power as a roof 7:45 "shading" place after. But then need to know batterys and electric

Every one cares for battery type conected and solar and diesel engine how fast charge volt and all. If not it has to be better for you to sell gasoline outboard day cruiser

Lets see all electric motors and batterys upsett and all info!!!!!!

Let see some of what ALL wants to see Electric engine and batterys whit all info !!!!

I'm not a broker, but surely the best way to sell a boat is not when it having the re-fit done?? do video when its done and dressed??? weird!!

Really interesting video, very thorough tour of an amazing old yacht. The crew quarters are quite comfortable considering the age when this yacht was built. Extremely odd salon layout -- there is no connection or view from the salon to the aft deck. Refit nice but I don't think white carpeting will work well in the new dining area. Even with a refit, I bet this yacht is a continuous maintenance challenge simply due to its advanced age and complexity. The helm area instrumentation was ancient.

Amazing job work by this channel to present such yachts in such a detailed and informative way. It takes a lot of effort to tour, film and upload videos especially when their accurate narration instead of silent walk through videos. Also the shipyard has done an exceptional job of retrofitting and making a new and better than original with modern equipment

Why, jusy why..... whenever people alter the original design of a yacht it looks like a homemade build boat right away. Such a shame.

It lost its unique design
