    In response to all of the comments. We purchased this vessel about a year ago. We renamed her Wine-N-Down. We first saw the boat at the seattle boat show. This video doesn’t do the construction and features of this boat justice. The floor plan is perfect. The features and construction are the best quality. We’ve upgraded the electronics. That was the only improvement that was needed. After cruising her this summer I can honestly say we wouldn’t change anything. The previous owners did a fantastic job of designing the floor plan. The construction is the best and they only used the best components. This is our fourth boat. The plan is to spend our summers cruising the inland waters of Washington, BC and Alaska. Come by and say hi if you see us on the water!

You spend nearly 45 minutes showing us a 55 ft trawler and really getting into detail and being so thorough. I love that! And you show the boats out on the water too - not just at dock. And isn't that the best way to show a boat - in its natural environment? The environment it was made for! The others could really learn a few lessons for you. Your obvious love for the boats and boating really comes through! Thanks for your great videos.

I almost don't have a vocabulary for how conservative and yet functional and super luxury... There really isn't a word for something that is as beautiful as it is functional and yet as plain Jane as it is it is still appealing.

    I've watched this video a couple of times now; this is one of my favorite boats of all time. The proportions and lines are beautiful, but the amount of thought involved in organizing so much function into so little space frankly astounds me. It's a boat built to live on, the perfect amount of space for each task. A bed you can walk around, an engine room you don't have to be a contortionist to change a filter. And no wasted space either, each area is tailored to its function perfectly. In short I love it!

    OK, the guy that designed this tiny ship is a genius, he has to be to put all this in only 55 feet without being crowded.
    Teddi Bear is a perfect name.

    It is an excellent small ship with high quality, good taste, and professionalized characteristics for long expeditions. And this gentleman is so relaxed and comfortable makes the presentation very very nice. And, after all, dreams costs nothing, for now is for free, maybe some day we pay dream taxes!!

    What an amazing lifestyle this owner created in this boat! Something dreadful must have happened for them to let this floating masterpiece of a home go. I wish them the best. I think they have chosen the perfect salesman to find a new owner. Fantastic presentation!

    I've seen over 50 boat tours so far. For me, who doesn't speak American, this one was the absolute best. The best error-free
    lecture i listen in crystal clear language. And the absolute best boat that I was able to visit. Really everything like new.
    Sold, of course, as with everything that is excellent !!! Best ever here on CZcams. Exactly the size for west Europe.

    Do you know what I didn’t notice? The production. The camera placement is great. The shots are obviously pre-planned. The audio mix is clear and subtle. The boat is the star even with the host pointing out the features. Well worth the cost of production...congrats.

    Made in NZ, and as a New Zealander from Auckland, I can see the design harks back to 1940- 1970s ferry boats we had in Auckland, with the round double story stern, square windows and identical outer bridge design...reminds me of when I was a kid catching the ferry across the harbour..

      This boat grabs my attention. I’ve looked at videos of massive pretentious yachts and didn’t get a comfortable feeling. This custom built boat has my idea of comfort. Not sleek on the outside, but actually the more I look at it, the more it grows on me. Looks like a chubby ferry boat. That engine room ... wow, is all I can say. Top notch workmanship.

  • @larrymcgill5508
    @larrymcgill5508 Před 10 měsíci +1

    Without a doubt this is the most exquisite yacht of form and function that really puts it in a class of its own. On the down side, I imagine you would have to have a highly seasoned captain or a marine engineer to maintain it. This is definitely a sailors’ yacht and not for the weekend warrior with more dollars than sense. I’m glad to hear the new owners are utilizing it to its full potential.
    P.S. It also might lure me away from Florida to enjoy some cold water excursions.

    Now there is yachting and boating.
    If you fancy a shiny gleamy thing with fine lines which you might use a bit, maybe sail out somewhere have a few drinks then there are many alternatives to this boat.
    But if you are serious, want to go off for an adventure on the high seas, this is the "must have" boat to own.
    The detail in this boat is phenomenal and ticks every box possibly the only thing letting it down is the name of the boat.
    I am so pleased I watched this a real education on how to engineer/design a "proper" boat fit for the longer range travels and adventure in comfort.
    Thanks really enjoyed this video totally fantastic.
