      @@Yachtsforsaleblog sometimes in life you come across something special . Nice to see how this boat has been looked after . Even without the fancy things like beach clubs etc this is a true cruising yacht with build quality .
      I was looking at spec and being a yacht owner 45 ft plastic fantastic I was interested to see the engine hours and how high they are.
      I do understand these are not your yanmar , Volvo or Mann found in most production yachts so would be great if you could do a vlog on how these big commercial style engines our built and how long they run for , or can they keep being overhauled and almost keep running for ever ?

    I counted at least 5 times during this walkthrough that you referenced Children. I can't think of anything else that would ruin my time on board a beautiful yacht (except maybe a hurricane) more than having young children on board. I have raised my share of children and have many grandchildren. And they will be welcome on my yacht once they become adults. Especially on a classic beauty like this 40-year-old Feadship. With white everywhere, that wonderful woodwork. I will be posting a plaque where guests will enter the yacht stating; No Children, Pets, or Fishing allowed on this boat.

    Beautiful interior! I know that many people shy away from gloss finishes, but the gloss Mahogany in the Master was stunning! The white Hampton style was beautiful in other areas. The thing that I loved, especially as an American, was the bed height! Finally, someone who knows about proper height. I dislike low-slung beds and furniture in most yachts. At my home, I must have a step to get into my California King bed.
    A few things I didn't like: the exposed ribs, to me, are unattractive and show the age of the yacht; I would like to see the stern reworked in a refit to give access to the water, perhaps even a beach club. I do understand that it would have to be done carefully so as not to destroy the classic appearance, just a thought. I think it may need a technology update with tablet controls etc in each cabin.
    Overall a stunning yacht that you presented very well David!

    Greetings from Kansas City, USA, David! Amazing vessel and the one thing that impressed me the most was how the interior design seemed to invert the color scheme for the owners’ suite.

  • @darthkek1953
    @darthkek1953 Před rokem +9

    Looking through the listing whilst it might be originally a 1985 vessel, there was seemingly a near 100% refit in 2002. Yes, some updates and fits since then (2008 gyro, 2012 galley, 2017 spa, etc.) but it seems much of what we see is 2002. That's why it doesn't seem quite as "old" as 1985. I would love to see some 80s/90s photos of this ship!!

Another proof what you will get in the long run if proper and scheduled maintenance are conducted and having an awesome crew. I must say the location of the engine room is quite unique. I believev there is a technical reason why it's located there... Watching vidoe footage of Explora at sea, is like watching the late Sean Connery in the movie Entrapment.... if that makes any sense at all... hahaha.. Awesome walkthrough .. and Happy New Year 2023.. more blessing to you and your family. (btw sorry for the world cup prediction)
