It’s always good to see a grown man enjoying himself like a child! Your joy came across and was infectious, thank-you
I'm glad that you enjoyed it 🙂
Only Nick can truly create an "onboard with him" experience for us followers.
Well yeah,because otherwise it’d be an “onboard with somebody else” experience!
@@K1lostream Kidneys, eh?
@@Coowallsky I wouldn’t be without’em.
Of all of your videos its these that make me the most envious, your own boat, great weather, friends and cruising around, bliss.
Nearly at half a million, Nick. Thanks for the ride.
I'm glad that you enjoyed it 🙂
They cost a fortune to maintain.
They aren’t much fun when the weather is poor.
BUT, when the weather is decent and you can get out and play it’s all worth it!
Brilliant to see you enjoying SB2!
Marvellous - When I started watching with my Wife 3 years ago, we thought it was all very aesthetically pleasing and plush with all these amazing boats, but more importantly we have grown to enjoy your trips for the journeys of the soul! We have two choices - keep watching you enjoying yourself or secondly get a boat ourselves (One day!!🤔) !!! Thanks for all your insights into a world we may never have considered 5 years ago Nick! All the best and thanks for great video 👍 Thanks to Gregg and his partner too, as the three camerapersons adds to our involvement 😎 HAPPY DAYS! ☀🐬🚤
Great to hear that you're enjoying them, and there is an Option Three - do both! 😃
Good food, good seas, good company.....the perfect trifecta !
A bit of Nick on Smugglers blues 2 ,what more can we ask of for on a Friday afternoon , perfect 🙂
I'm glad that you enjoyed it 🙂
A great day on the water. The boat goes well. Thanks for taking us for a spin. 🇦🇺 😊
My pleasure!
So too does Greg’s now.
Very well matched boats.
Great footage provided by both Captains
Spring is here! Great video Nick! Thanks for dispelling the rumor that all Brits have singing talent...😂🤣
No worries! 😄
I don't think I've ever enjoyed myself on the water so much whilst being on land! I felt as though I was right there with you all the way 😃 What an absolutely blissful journey Nick, thanks so much for taking us along! Also massive respect for your excellent taste in music 😁
I was thinking as you were pointing out different boats along the way, about how bad I am at recognising builders/models of boats, and I wondered if you might one day be able to make a video on how you identify different boats.
As a pilot I was taught with aircraft recognition to use things like placement of engines, position of wings and shape of fuselage etc to help differentiate aircraft from one another. I assume it's a similar thing with boats but wonder what the telltale features of a princess/sunseeker etc are.
I appreciate it's outside of your format, but even if you could include little informative bits in your future videos about typical hallmarks of boat builders I'd be very grateful, considering your expertise in the field.
As always I just love your content Nick, you're my absolute (pardon the pun) favourite CZcams channel. Thanks for your marvellous videos and I'll look forward to catching you on another one again real soon 😃
Glad you enjoyed it! 😃
Probably the best video I have seen showing the the beauty and enjoyment of yachting
You're very kind 🙂
Thank you for sharing the trip with us, Nick. I am looking forward to many more SB2 trips this summer.
I'm glad that you enjoyed it 🙂
″Thusly″ LOL
What a gorgeous village. Almost like a CG movie scene.
A lovely day on the water.
What an idyllic way to ease into a weekend!!!! Thank you muchly!!!
Glad you enjoyed it! 😃
Very relaxing watching Nick mucking around on the water 💦
Great outting, Nick! Thanks for taking us along! 👍👍
No worries! 😃
@@AQUAHOLIC 👍👍
Loved this video. Have a wonderful weekend. Happy Mothers Day, Nick!
Glad you enjoyed it! 😃
Great video as always Nick, so glad you and greg can now play together in nearly equal machinery 👍I know that the D4 engine in Smugglers is newer. more fuel efficient and you get EDC but i have to say that turbo and supercharged straight 6 in Dreams sounds glorious. Thank you to you, Greg and Sally for bringing us along on your trips. hope you enjoy a season of calm seas and warm breeze.
I'm glad that you enjoyed it 🙂
What a day you had! Slightly envious 😊
Just what we need after a crap week get home 55 inch tv cup coffee and biscuits nick Burnham smugglers and dreams making memories enjoying life to the full you are living the dream nick and for us who don't have a boat we are totally enjoying your dream big thank you just what I needed ps loving the new sound system looking forward to the next one
Glad you enjoyed it! 😃
That looked like a great day out Nick, thank you for taking us along.
Glad you enjoyed it! 😃
All good stuff. Thanks Nick. The cruise ship. It looked like a ship. Not like the Bennidorm on barges.
That looked a fab day out on the water but with regards to the singing 'don't give up the day job Nick'🏴☠🏴☠🏴☠
😄
Love Dartmouth and the Dart
Grand Video Nick ❤
Glad you enjoyed it! 😃
"It isn't that life ashore is distasteful to me, but life at sea is better" - Francis Drake
At last! The spring has arrived! Well done Nick
Wow, what a boat trip. The scenery is breathtakingly beautiful. You can't beat Devon, especially love the River Dart and Estuary, Dartmouth and Kingswear. Great choice, At the River by Groove Armada, one of my favourite songs.
Looking forward to your next boat trip. Thanks Nick 🌳 👍 😃 🌳
I'm lucky to go boating in a beautiful area.
Your tour videos make me think 'that's a cool boat', these types of videos make me think that I should really get (aspire for!?) a boat!!!
Go for it!!
wonderful Nick. Felt as if we were there with you. Thanks for sharing your day. Most enjoyabubble.
My pleasure!
Ah Nick you posted this up when we were taking our first proper trip out on our new to us boat, an 80km trip along the Bocholt-Herentals Canal, from Kerkhoven to Maasmechlen with the yacht club, 10 boats leaving at various days and times heading east and south.
Ours was the oldest boat, a Placom 750, she is 45 years old, and we were last to leave. At a fairly steady 8km/h sog it took us 10 hours of sailing and an overnight stop in Bocholt, then 2 nights in Maasmechlen with BBQ etc and great company, then 2 days traveling back the 80km to Kerkhoven on the Kanal naar Beverlo. Only decision made over the extended weekend was that we want a bigger boat :)
Great to see you out and enjoying yourself again Nick.
Tomorrow, another day out and a tapas somewhere along the canal side now praying for some better weather.
You have the one of the most honest CZcams channels on the planet.
Good fortune and keep providing the great vids.
You're very kind 🙂
I just came back from the CAPEVERDEAN ISLANDS.Im amazed how many small sailing n pleasure yachts i saw there who crossed the ocean.A lot of respect for the captains n sailors.CV 400KM out from the continent AFRICA.a lot going to the Caribbean n USA.Crossing during 25days for some.RESPECT👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾AQUAHOLIC #1 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Thank you for sharing this Nick! It was a nice distraction with such beautiful scenery!! Please post more of these! ❤
I'm glad that you enjoyed it 🙂
The audio system sounds fantastic, so is your taste in music. I would love to hear it again.
Great to see you out and about again in smugglers. I think a few people have said this but seeing g you out on the water and living by the coast makes me very envious. Have a great weekend Nick. K
Thank you, you too! 🙂
Fabulous day out today, watched with a beer in hand.
Glad you enjoyed it! 😃
Brilliant as always Nick. Really enjoyed seeing you happy and the fun you had. Thx for sharing this with us. 😊
My pleasure!
Thanks for taking us out on "Smuggler" - a lovely day was had by all!! Well done Nick!! John
Glad you enjoyed it!
I just love the enthusiasm. As you said boat size cost etc means nothing it seems the water has an effect of making everyone equal in their enjoyment of the day. Thanks
Great to see the first trip!!!
I'm glad that you enjoyed it 🙂
Really enjoyable video Nick. Great footage taken by both Skippers and First mate. I had the absolute same feeling with my boat on her first trip out this year. All the hard work in the yard anti fouling, polishing, servicing my outboard pays off when you open her up and have the wind in your face! Thanks for the trip out. 👍🏻👏👌
You're very welcome! 🙂
Never seen you looking so happy.. Great to see 👍👍👍
Thank you 🙂
More please! 👍 That was fantastic Nick. 🤗 🍷 Many thanks!
You're so welcome! 😃
Really good to see you on your boat Nick
The UK is truly awesome. Those who have the ability to own boats of any size are blessed.
We agree!
You old headbanger you!!😄😄 Love supertramp though.great day👍👍
Rock on! 😄
With Maggie resting by his side
Surely nothing could go wrong
I love the music that Nick plays
But wish he wouldn't sing along
He's easy like a Sunday morning
Each and every day of the week
A blessed life he has got
The same that all us doth seek
Yes, I'm Holding Back The Years
To give me time to cruise the sea
I would have gone aship with him
But he forgot to invite me
Some day I'll get to my heavenly berth
And get to sail Paradise sea
Nick and Maggie can come along
They're always welcome to sail with me
This is fantastic! Deserves a wider audience! 😄
Cheers Nick! Life’s short, anchors up! The that Bruce Hornsby you!!
Absolutely brilliant video Nick, in my opinion one of the best you have done. So relaxing to watch, I'll be waching it again many times.
I've been following you since you started, this year I will be launching my boat for the first time (1990 bayliner 2556 which I have done a lot of work on over the year) and will be looking forward to having her on her Hamble mooring and expoloring the Solent. Thanks for what you do!
That's fantastic, enjoy! 😃
Man and boy on the water love that! A true yachtsman that Nick!!
⚓️⚓️
FANTASTIC boattrip, and thank you so much for letting us be a part of it 😀 Lovely music, the very best of friends and a very beautiful scenery 😊GREAT 😊
I'm glad that you enjoyed it 🙂
Couple of English lads out tooling along, boat slicing thru the water, wind in the hair but I was surprised you weren’t blasting Mick and the Stones wailing to “Jumpin’ Jack Flash”. I’d save the oldies classics for the way home. But you had a good run and you clearly enjoyed every minute of it.
Great sound from your Fusion system, even better boating 😂😂
Great to see you with the classic boaters smile 🤩
Your love of the water shines through Nick. Good to see you back out there. Great to have the weather too!
I'm glad that you enjoyed it 🙂
A great video. Boating is living! Best regards from northern Norway. :)
Glad you enjoyed it!
I'm sure that was the Faith no more version of Easy.
Nic is truly a man of taste!
let this be a boaty year!!!
Regarding your singing I wouldn't give up your day job just yet.
Another cracking video and you have me thinking about taking the plunge again.
😳
What a well crafted, professionally edited and thoroughly enjoyable video. Epic, literally. Thanks Nick😀
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
Hi , I know how you feel the first good trip of the season , lets us all hope the wind keeps down and the sun stays out . Enjoy the season have fun and do not count the cost until the end , happy days . 😉👍👍💅to all for the day out . Keep them coming Nick and fun is just over the horizon .
And the towels are for unexpected, involuntary showers? *He-he* I liked it.👍
Only a true friend would say "Please fall in"
True! 😄
Thanks for taking us with you Nick! Fond memories of my misspent youth ahhh!
My pleasure!
Hard stuff first couple of trips on your own Nick but thanks for bringing us virtual sailors along, boat looks so comfortable in those conditions ❤
Two things i would love to see in 2024 nick. A meet the owner with james lumley and a review of the princess v65 thanks
I think I speak for many of us when I say how much we enjoy coming with you on your adventures. It is the closest we are ever likely to get to actually taking to the sea and the way you draw us into your world is magical. A great day much enjoyed. Thank you sincerely for sharing it with us.
I'm pleased that you enjoy it 🙂
Love this Nick, please have lots more little adventures like this over the summer.
Get out there, have fun... but take us along for the ride 😊
Have so many great emeries of Dartmouth boating and mucking about on the water. Its a special place
Looks like some much fun and music helps so much sometimes with a a good sound system's is right . and its only the beginning of the season :)
What a spectacular day you had! Seeing Brixham and Torquay built up around their harbours reminded me of my visit to Bournemouth several years ago, and then I checked the map and realized that it's just a little further around the coast from where you were. And cheers on your choice of music - my playlist would have been very similar on a day like that. 🥂
WOW, just brilliant Nick ! Thanks for the trip, looking forward to the next one👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love these video’s, Nick! Your passion shows thru so clearly. I am also always amazed at the beauty of your country! Thanks for sharing a have a great weekend!
My pleasure!
You should totaly do more travelvideos. Maybe instead of chartering a yacht with crew, you could try a boat rental where you skipper it yourself and explore the area? I would love to watch that. I honesty prefere this type of content over the superyacht tours.
I'm glad that you enjoyed it, hoping to do more. 🙂
Thanks Nick, Always enjoy outings on your boat
Glad you like them!
Great to see you all enjoying yourselves, great day out :)
Fabulous Nick, was looking forward to watching this. Another excellent start to the season xx
Thanks so much!
Fantastic Nick
Very nice to see you enjoying yourself Nick
Hi Nick thanks for taking us along your get away it was wonderful, have a great evening Nick
Thanks, you too!
Back to an Old Skool video, and I love it. Fantastic.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Brilliant Nick - great to come along
Cheers Nick. Appreciate the effort to record and post a video for me (us) to enjoy and feel like we all own a boat and enjoy the views and good times.
No worries 😃
Great video & lovely to see you enjoying life 😊
Thank you! 😊
Really enjoyable watch , Nick, especially with Greg and wife! Greg what a star, welcomed you into brixham, filmed footage, wanting you to fall in! and paid for fish and chips in Torquay! 😂 enjoying life!! Nick , brilliant watch.I would have been nice to see a bit more of the life on board when anchored up . Conversation, eat, play, feet up moments . 👍
It would, but I'm very conscious of not always having my camera in people's faces, they're very accommodating as it is. 🙂
@@AQUAHOLIC understandable Nick, fair play. So good watching you enjoy life a board ,your own boat ,in open sea in great weather. 👍
Absolutely wonderful viewing not only the sound of low music listening to the water and of course the views, and seeing the joy makes it all worthwhile..Great stuff Nick liked the length of the Video too.Best wishes from Brisbane..👍
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
Awesome stuff Nick looks fantastic a great way to spend Friday with this kind of weather nicely handled too a friend of mine is staying in Dartmouth for a few days so he can now see it from the water with your help.. Perfect have a good weekend 😎👍
Thank you Nick i totally enjoyed this, it must be so good to get back into your boat and just chill out and enjoy the water. Again thanks 😀👍👍👍
You're very welcome (and yes it is!)
Hi nick. What a lovely video to start the season off to. More please.
Thanks for the fun I loved it & all your videos big hugs
you can really go off some people... 🤣🤣🤣, Wonderful and great to see someone getting such pleasure out of being on the water. Keep it up
That was stunning , what a lovely part of the world and how nice was the weather , even the music sounded like it was lifted off my music library , truly exceptional, many thanks for sharing it , you are a lucky man indeed
I'm glad that you enjoyed it 🙂
Great to see you so happy.
Awesome scenery, looks like a great day
What a lovely adventure! Thank you for bringing us along.
My pleasure!
A lovely bit of escapism and genuine envy on a Monday, for those of us without a boat (even if only at present). What a way to while away a day (for you) and an hour or so for us, to join you. Thank you.
I'm glad that you enjoyed it 🙂
What a great day on the water Nick! Thank you so much!
My pleasure!
At minute 11:54, you just passed my Fairline Squadron 65 !!! That is funny!
Awesome! Fabulous boat, I was admiring it.
I was nice to bump into you yesterday what a lovely day
It was fabulous wasn't it? Out again today!
