Jim Leishman, Don Kohlmann, Parker Hadlock and Doug Harlow deliver a brand new Nordhavn 68 to it's owners in an epic trip from Anacortes, WA to Ketchikan, AK through the inside passage.
Discovery Channel / TLC, I hope you guys are watching this. This makes for GREAT tv. I can watch this all day. Leishman, Kohlmann, Hadlock, Harlow, you guys made a fantastic vid here.
Each one of your boats is spectacular! Whoever does the designs is a brilliant designer! The 68’ is perfect owner/operator size! Not everyone wants a crew onboard. Perfect size and lovely design interior and out ❤️
As far jobs go, deliver Nordhavn's is a bad way to make a living. Stunning scenery, gentle cruising on a beautiful vessel. Not in the slightest bit jealous. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful scenery. I love the look of the 68 in the forward configuration. A boat like that in Alaska is going to be an amazing experience for the owner.
Good job Doug Harlow, outstanding drone takes, editing and sound tracks. Jim Leishman, thanks for sharing once more these impressive boats. Well done Nordhavn's team.
I love the 63 but the FPH68 has to be the best of all worlds for a cruising couple. Plenty of space - interior, fore, and aft. Plenty of range (goes without saying for any Nordy). That boat deck has to be absolutely massive - with a tender approaching 20'. Plenty of room for another tender or jet ski as well. Bravo Nordhavn! Congrats Daybreak part 2.
Amazing how far you can go up that coast without being exposed to the open ocean. Makes for days and days of very smooth sailing in water that more resembles freshwater lakes.
Fabulous go anywhere trawler yacht. I salute the owners for allowing the filming and the brilliant crew for the passage. The commentary was brilliant and informative. As for the cinematography and drone piloting this was just amazing and as professional as it gets. The softness of 1080p rather than the crispness of 4K really suits scenic filming. I suspect the camera was a Blackmagic or Red. The scenery was breathing taking too. We own a AZ magellano 66 so really like our trawler style yachts.
Great coverage of the early season trip. Looked like a terrific time on a first class build. I am surprised we do not see more of the forward pilothouse Nordhavn builds of the 68 and 76/78 models here in the NW. A lower CG and better forward visibility in these wood strewn waters.
I watch a lot of Nordhavn videos and would have to say you guys make the best videos. Seeing the boat underway and the locations you visit are wonderfull.
Wow love these delivery videos you guys do it really gets me dreaming lol how about including more of the boats tech and abilities? Would love chart plotting etc 😉
Great video! Took pretty much the same route back in 83 on are way up to commercial fish in Alaska. That boat looks a lot nicer then the old wooden smelly fishing boat I was on.😊
Beautifully filmed! My parents are typically up that way every summer for 9 weeks on their Ocean Alexander. I haven't been up there for 15 years, but grew up leaving Bellingham to Sullivan Bay each year for a 3-4 week trip. I miss it up that way. Thank you for sharing.....beautiful Nordhavn by the way!
Thank you such a wonderful film, the scenery was stunning, and you showcased the ship in such a calm and lovely way, I could watch for hours! Please let’s have lots more just like this.
What a great video. Gorgeous boat and excellent drone shots and music is pretty cool too. Hard to pick between a Fleming or this Nordhavn for a journey like this. I guess this one is in the $3M range. This has to be some of the best boating areas in the world.
Best video ever from you guys, outstanding, I saw myself smoking a nice cigar sipping premium rum every time you dropped anchor. Congratulations to the owners 👏👏👏👏 fair winds and following seas to the owners.
I go to work and sit in a cubicle. Others go to work and spend 6 days on an awesome, once in a lifetime (for me) trip. I am in the wrong business! Nice job with the filming and info on the route!
First of all, I’d like to thank you all for such a wonderful footage in which you impart with the general public. I really enjoy seeing boat builders transport the very Vessel in which they’ve conjured up to their respective clients. Secondly, I’d like to take this opportunity, now that I have your undivided attention and ask; why doesn’t your company make those models, 55,68,72,76,86,90,96,100,120 and so forth in Steel and aluminum Trawler like the Bering Company?
Absolutely a fine boat ,I spent 14 + years in southeast if I had that boat I would still be there but now I'm in homer just wishing I win a lottery so we could meet up in Ketchikan I might have you deliver it here ,thank you for your kindness T
Great video and amazing scenery! It makes me want to get out there in my sailboat and hit the seas. It looks like this trip would be a wonderful one to take and spend an entire summer doing it instead of just seven days like you did. Thank you for making this video! JR
Thanks gentlemen. Really enjoyed. Thanks for sharing. First went to Ketchikan in 1978 with the U.S. Forest Service. Met my bride of 42 yrs up there. Loved the drone footage. You all did this right.
A truly beautiful video with breathtaking scenery. The 68 fwd or aft used to be my dream boat, but the new 71 has trumped it 😁 That boat looks so at home in those waters, amazing! 👍
That was amazing. I have spent some time in Vancouver and B.C. and have always been quite moved by the landscape. This is over the top. Add to that a beautiful Nordhaven yacht. Thank you.
That was fun! Great video. Very nice to see what the journey to Alaska looks like. Had I been the new owner, no way would I have waited for my boat to arrive...would've been on board!
Man! I wish that. One day I'll have a job on such area. Where after work I'll have a cup of tea on mountain top and watching the sunset on a snowy mountain.
Well with a few changes I would say she would be a great boat. 1) port side gate to fore deck. 2) full side deck on port side as well 3) side boarding gates at pilothouse level added. 4) wet exhaust instead of dry stack. of course, the addition of a million dollars off the price for every touch screen installed.
Well it does look like you had a decent sale up the channels photographs video was good enjoyed it can't imagine the beauty you just got to be there to see it and breathe the air enjoy the sensation you guys did a good job looking forward to more.
Discovery Channel / TLC, I hope you guys are watching this. This makes for GREAT tv. I can watch this all day. Leishman, Kohlmann, Hadlock, Harlow, you guys made a fantastic vid here.
Beautiful boat in beautiful surroundings, new owner is a fortunate man, fairwinds for the future.
I absolutely love nordhaven yacht’s. Unfortunately I am to poor to ever own one. Thank you for this beautiful video. Blessings to you
Darn I want a boat !!! Fantastic way to see the world!!
Your cinematographer did an amazing job. Fantastic work 💥
Every Nordhavn interior I have seen has been a work of art.
What a treat to watch this beautiful forward pilothouse 68 in action.
She seems to be forward heavy ? Great video. Thank you for sharing this adventure with us !!!
Loved to have played the deck hand on that trip just to experience that beautiful boat. Owners are so lucky. The area was breathtaking.
Wonderful job on the filming and editing of the video. Very professional. Beautiful boat.
Each one of your boats is spectacular! Whoever does the designs is a brilliant designer!
The 68’ is perfect owner/operator size! Not everyone wants a crew onboard. Perfect size and lovely design interior and out ❤️

Well, my mom said, "You should be a yacht deliverer." But did I listen?
Beautiful scenery. I love the look of the 68 in the forward configuration.
A boat like that in Alaska is going to be an amazing experience for the owner.
It would have been nice to hear some boat performance stats. Fuel consumption, average speed, etc.
Stunning yacht! Stunning scenery! The new owner is a very lucky man (or woman)!!
Good job Doug Harlow, outstanding drone takes, editing and sound tracks. Jim Leishman, thanks for sharing once more these impressive boats. Well done Nordhavn's team.
Thank you for taking me back home. I am from Whidbey Island. I grew up on the ocean. That trip is exactly how I remember the Puget Sound.
This has got to be the trip of a life time! As a photographer I’d spend hours on deck shooting the water falls. Beautiful
Always enjoy videos about the Inland Passage. This did not disappoint. Beautiful scenery and excellent presentation. Thanks for posting.
Absolutely stunning video
I've watch many Nordhavn videos and I have to say, it was one of the best. What a gorgeous vessel!
Interesting video. Thank you.
*An absolutely magnificent boat, touring one of the worlds indisputably most epic coastlines! . . .*
Thanks for sharing Dough! 🇳🇴
Absolutely stunning; so picturesque. What a cool voyage.
Doug Harlow takes the best Nordhavn videos. I always like watching them. Thanks to all of you for posting this wonderful trip.
yes, but can anyone share the story of the unfortunate passing of drone 1!?
What a beautiful voyage, you're living my dream life.
Beautiful vessel and phenomenal pictures. I just don’t know how I can take only going 10 knots all the time. The scenery is superb.
Amazing how peaceful and calm the waters are
Can’t believe how glassy the waters were for you guys. A perfect trip.
I love the 63 but the FPH68 has to be the best of all worlds for a cruising couple. Plenty of space - interior, fore, and aft. Plenty of range (goes without saying for any Nordy).

Now this is the kind of Nordhavn videos I like to see! Thank You for posting it.
not going to lie:
I made myself a Jack Daniels and Coke when you reached Cocktail Point
Stunning scenery. I really need one of these. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful video and spectacular scenery. I can only dream of making a boat trip like this on a a Nordhavn
11:52 the reflection of the sky... Amazing! Cheers to the drone pilot/camera guy!👏
Just wonderful footage --boat and the scenery!

Very pleasant - Nice drone photography, fading chapters and informative narration. I would have enjoyed seeing more of inside of the yacht. 🌺
What a well made film. Enjoyed very much. Beautiful motor yacht. Many thanks.
Stunning trip - beautiful boat.

OMG absolutely beautiful, boat, scenery and filming. Well done all and thank you for sharing.
Thats a beautiful boat. Some great drone shots and photography

Wow!!! Thanks for making this video it was outstanding!! Had no idea how beautiful the area is, especially on the beautiful yacht Daybreak.
What a great video. Gorgeous boat and excellent drone shots and music is pretty cool too. Hard to pick between a Fleming or this Nordhavn for a journey like this. I guess this one is in the $3M range. This has to be some of the best boating areas in the world.
Great video. Gorgeous scenery, sweet vessel.
This is such a beautiful boat. I hope to own one one day.
Nordhavn is an incredible boat and the HQ is in my hometown of Dana Point, CA.
Best video ever from you guys, outstanding, I saw myself smoking a nice cigar sipping premium rum every time you dropped anchor. Congratulations to the owners 👏👏👏👏 fair winds and following seas to the owners.
Sure got lucky with sea conditions. Great filming! Thanks.

Superb video, thank you for sharing this. I really like the position of the tender, the engine overhang saves so much space. 👌

That was amazing. I have spent some time in Vancouver and B.C. and have always been quite moved by the landscape. This is over the top. Add to that a beautiful Nordhaven yacht. Thank you.

Great video, thanks for sharing the trip.
Beautiful weather!
Beautiful video - and the music is lovely too.

I guess the owner had made the trip before.
Beautiful boat! Beautiful Trip!
Spectacular video. Hope to cruise that route in the future.
Quality. Thank you. A pleasure to watch.
What a bugger ofa job having to deliver a boat up there. I guess someone has to do it.
beautiful yacht, excellent video
This video is amazing. So well done on the videography and scenery. You make some beautiful boats. I can't wait for my own adventure to begin...
Man! I wish that. One day I'll have a job on such area. Where after work I'll have a cup of tea on mountain top and watching the sunset on a snowy mountain.

I can't imagine why four people gave this a thumbs down. Beautiful video and boat. Thanks..
Up to six now, but I'm on your side. I love these uploads. Aquaholic has me everytime he does the Nordhavns.
If I ever win a lottery it’s a Nordhavn for me, beautiful yachts
