Just to mention, we also filmed a full yacht tour of the entire boat, which will be coming to the channel at some stage. I hope you enjoyed the sea trail! 🙂
Looking forward to that 😀 👍
It was brilliant nick, well worth the wait. Richard and his team have done a wonderful job on her and just to see that finished product racing across the English Channel Was the icing on the cake!
Nick what speed did she achieve WOT ?
@chinagrooves about 38 I think Nic said in a thread comment below ....
As a big Miami Vice fan I never thought anything would get close to the look of that Wellcraft Scarab but RED is pretty darn close, Epic build and great series of videos, Brilliant
Beautiful, just beautiful. I think Sunseeker themselves would be proud of the job Richard has done!
I think it might be one of the most striking and prettiest boats I've ever seen. Couldn't be done any better. Amazing drone work and footage as well
Inspired colour choice as well.
Impressive.. both the boat and filming. Very James Bond…. and all looked so much fun. Nice one Nick 😎✌🏻
"Brace yourself Sheila" and Nick is instantly turned into a 5 year old on Christmas morning, that alone shows what a fantastic job Richard and crew did with this super speed boat which has been an absolute pleasure to watch from start to finish
I've been watching your videos for a while now and enjoy them immensely but I've never felt the need to comment until now. I have to say in my opinion this is probably the best film yet. Superb aerial shots, great soundtrack and superb content, well done.
As for Richard, congratulations on completing his build, the finished article is stunning. His level of workmanship, professionalism and attention to detail is a huge credit to him, he must be feeling so proud. If I were him I'd have a large screen TV somewhere in my house playing this on a continuous loop at full blast.
Congratulations to all involved.
Thank you 🙂
Absolutely stunning guys. Having followed this day one she’s absolutely amazing ! Congratulations to you all
Thanks so much!
@@AQUAHOLIC Hi again Nick, can I ask you if you’d do a “meet the owner” with Richard at the end of the season on how he feels about the finished & used RED please, thanks as always Ian
Wow! I mean WOW!! She’s absolutely stunning, very much at home in the best the English Channel can produce. You’d never think that a few short months ago Red was basically a sorry looking hull in a workshop.
Yes yes yes! I mean come on. Wow. She is a thing of beauty, could watch her all day carving through the water. The smiles indeed say it all 😬😬😬
Unbelievable.... it gives me goosebumps. Incredible job.... well done from Kilkenny Ireland.
Drone shots were epic Nick! Glad to see the end result! Can’t wait for the next project.
A beautiful boat and now one of the most famous in the boating world! Congratulations you’ve created a legend!
Brilliant! And big shout out to whoever operated the drone, that was some great footage!
Glad you enjoyed it
Bloody thing gave me goosebumps. Loved watching the banking angle shots. VERY pretty boat. Little bit jealous right now 🤣 cheers Nick 👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
What a boat. Beautiful, it has a hint of the Bat boat about the windscreen and the arch support rising from the deck head. A credit to Richard and all the work he has put in. Sunseeker have always made beautiful boats but RED takes it a few notches up. I've watched it four times and it doesn't get boring .But i admit I tend to drool a bit like a kid in a sweet shop. Could be my age. I look forward to the full tour.
Well done Richard it's a really brilliant transformation of a wreck to a stunning dream machine! That was an awesome trial with both yourself and Mr Aquaholic grinning like a couple of Cheshire cats throughout the whole journey!
All the thousands of hours you and your team have put into "Red", has been worthwhile to see this absolute flying machine!
Looks like a lot of fun on the water!! Stay safe and keep enjoying the fruit of your labor RED captain! She looks amazing!! 👍👍👊👊
What a beautiful boat. Even Sunseeker should be deeply impressed. There may even be suggestions for future Sunseeker models here, because the design and style are absolutely timeless. Thank you for this fabulous sea trial. I would also like to mention that the music is excellently chosen. 🙂
Would love to see a “behind the scenes” video someday, of how you film and edit such amazingly beautiful videos.
Hands down the best video you have ever produced Nick, along side the best boat Sunseeker never produced.. hats off to you Richard. RED is beautiful!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Knew this would be good Nick but damn Richard if this doesn't get the phone ringing nothing will. Enjoy, you deserve it and thanks for letting us see the build, loved it.
‘Bloody Brilliant’!!! So nice to see RED from first concept to sea trial. What a rate of turn! She looks gorgeous & performs like a fighter plane… great work! Some good drone shots too, thanks Nick 👍🏻
Wow what a beautiful day to trial the boat a true credit to Richard all the hard work done now to enjoy his new joy . Happy cruising Richard. Bet nick had a fun time
STUNNING!!!!! Is the only way to describe RED. Its AMAZING what the color scheme did to this boat! Made an old used boat look like a modern sport cruiser, and one of the BEST looking boats to have been on this channel. The Supermarines have NOTHING. On RED !!!!!!
I’ve always wondered why most pleasure boats are white, RED confirms my thoughts that, if your gonna spend the crazy money, might as well get something that looks good!!!!!!
Two grown men carrying on like a couple of giddy teenagers, and who can blame them. That looked a real blast. Congratulations Richard, you’ve got a real beauty there.
Perfection! So in love with this boat. Hope Sunseeker kind of appreciates what he's done with this beauty
This is more a sales pitch than a sea trial - Smugglers Blues III
Wonderful project, stunning boat, fantastic video.
Absolutely beautiful, have you stopped smiling yet😂
Red looks absolutely stunning!!!, that’ll be snapping necks around the marinas , the performance is like what the heck!, the sound of those engines winding up just gave me goosebumps!. Really nice build. ;))
I concur. As a, resident in the desert of El Mirage AZ USA just a stunning fun time to join in the ride. Congratulations to Richard on his hard work and to you Nick for the stunning video. Fortunately, Lake Pleasant a 16 square mile reservoir, is nothing compared to the stunning views you share on this fun fun sea trial. I must also agree with a previous post that this is very James Bondish. Thank you for sharing, it was so refreshing. I am looking forward to the full tour as I have been watching with interest Richards entire journey in the restoration of this Sun Seeker.
Without a shadow of a doubt,that is the best video I have watched on CZcams. Bloody brilliant
Watched this a few times now, I’ve never seen a better video for any boat! Love it!
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
18 months of blood , sweat and long weekends, was it worth it , you bet , wow what a great craft , with top quality craftsmanship . This has been a lovely series Nick thanks for sharing . The drone footage on this vid was also superb
Awesome 😎 I was grinning the whole way through, you really captured the moment, brilliant video. I can’t believe how hard she turns, what a fantastic job he’s done.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great Drone footage, really added to the video and the feeling of speed
Hi Nick ..I reeeeeealy enjoyed every step of this Sunseeker project...since the beginning. I realy did. As Usual huuuge hugs from Colombia.
Just WOW, followed the progression with great interest and fantastic drone camera work. Well done Richard she's a credit to your building skills.
Wicked. Alright...now we all know Richard pretty well at this point, but I still think we should all tuck ourselves away for a chat - next Meet the Owner segment, perhaps? The architect of road warriors, the captain of refurbished sea travel...who IS the man behind the glasses and grin?
Well that was certainly worth the wait. What a credit it is to Richard for realising his dream. A fantastic project to follow and what a stunning lady RED is. Beauty and exhilaration wrapped up in one. Hope Richard gets to enjoy her as much as possible 😍❤👏
yes we've been waiting for this!!!
wow to see her at the beginning to seeing her now. Red is gorgeous. The speed was incredible and the turns she does amazing. Thank you Nick for sharing this with us
Our pleasure!
What a beautiful boat, love the color. Perfect day for sea trials, flat, empty, seas. Bravo Zulu to whoever was flying the drone, what amazing shots.
A sports car for the sea!, friggin awesome 🤩 and you’ve got the whole highway to yourself!
Congratulations, Mr. Churchill. Thank you for taking us on the journey with you. Also - wonderful job documenting the transformation, Mr. Burnham. I imagine the future owner will treasure being able to watch the videos and revisit the creation of his or her pride and joy. Well done!
Thank you kindly!
What a great journey! Thank you so much for sharing it with us! What a magnificent machine!!!!!!!
Our pleasure!
I waited 8 hours to give this the attention it deserved, and it was worth it!
Epic!!
Love the boat, loved the video.
The way it heals into corners, accelerates, looks, smiles a plenty, everything!!
Well done Mr Richard on a very successful project Sunseeker 🤩
What a show of stunning craftsmanship to create this one of a kind super boat , Congratulations to all 👍
4:22 You couldn't beat that grin off his face with a bat, and rightly so. What a mega project and what a mega result. Congratulations, well done!
Very nice video too, thanks for sharing!
Thank you very much!
What a machine absolutely amazing and to have done it all yourself is a tremendous achievement and will mean so much more than buying a key turn boat. Looks beautiful and to have it moored in Torquay is a dream😊. The grin on Nicks face when he had a play was great as well. Hats off to you sir and I'm not jealous at all🤔😂😂
The way that boat stands out in a crowd of white boats is incredible! Bright red, fast, with mean looks, you can’t ask for much more out of a boat!
Pops out of the hole as sweet as you like and she's a real driver's boat - would love to put her through her paces. Love the quality and finish of this build. Build Red II from a bigger Sunseeker, please!
Can see myself watching this one many many times ! Very good
Brilliant boat and well done to everyone involved in its restoration!
All i can think about watching this is the sheer amount of effort Richard and his team put in to get there. That takes determination and i'm sure it wasn't easy a times (understatement!) but just look at that prize at the end of it.
Fantastic video Nick after 18 months it is great to her on the water doing what she was made for.
You both looked like you was having fun 🤩.
I’m looking forward to the full tour it will be a good way to end this epic journey.
What a joy when all that hard work paid off so splendidly. Beautiful boat. Well done to all of those who worked on her.
The most beautiful sunseeker I have ever seen what a machine. Well done
Wow looks so good!!!! Congrats to owner... Thanks Nick for filming Project Sunseeker from start to finish :)
It's a pleasure!
What a stunning boat. Sunseeker should spotlight this machine as its testament to their fantastic build alongside a perfectionists refurbishment skills. Thanks for sharing the journey. Looking forward to the full tour
wow she handles brilliantly, the slightest turn of the wheel you can see her responding. Stunning boat, what a transformation
That looked like great fun, nice to see all the hard work come to fruition, It looks amazing in that shade of red it really shows it off. Thanks for sharing with us, great video Nick.
Fantastic boat, it must be a wonderful feeling to be able to produce something so skilful with your own two hands. Well done 👏
Simply stunning…the renovation chronicled through its various stages has been a great watch and to see the boat finally out on the water is a joy. Amazing project.
I’ve just seen this in Torquay harbour. Gorgeous boat! So exciting to see it in real life!!
Oooooooh!!😍😍😍😍😍😍😍Lucky you!!☺️😊😍👍🏻👍🏻👌🏻
What an end to an amazing series
Nick, I can’t tell you how big my smile was for this entire video. Huge congratulations to Richard and his team! In the great words of one Jeremy Clarkson, “What a machiiiiiiineee!”
Congratulations 🎊 👏
The Cheshire cat grin says it all Nick!
Oh yay!! Bloody gorgeous 😍
Looks like she corners like she's on rails, and pulls like a freight train! Wow I'm very impressed 👏 👌 😎
Congrats to the owner. Beautiful craftmanship. Arguably better than new
Stunning what a job Richard has done he must be over the moon with it.😍
Great to see two huge Smiles from you both. It's that same smile you get when you have your first car or boat, and we all know that smile "CHEERS TO YOU BOTH"
Well done Richard a credit to you. Once again thanks Nick for allowing us to see it in full force….Best video yet.
Glad you enjoyed it
Beautifull. Woukd have one in a heart beat. Im just surprised how much it leans in high speed turns. My baby 19ft Raeline cuddy cabin (Sea ray bowrider hull) stays fairly flat in turns until just above planing speed. Love the sound of twin turbo diesels spooling up. Dream machine.
Deep V hulls always crank over a lot further, due to the hull shape.
Just yes,yes,yes. What an amazingly stunningly gorgeous beast Richard has created. Thought she looked beautiful in the shed but out on the water,ooo I say. Thanks for allowing us to follow the journey,truly awesome.
Glad you enjoyed it
In two words "Bloody Brilliant". Thanks Nik, and a truly brilliant display of your videography skills, pure magic.
You're very kind 🙂
How amazing to see this project completed, having followed it from the beginning it’s great to see Richard enjoying his new yacht!
Absolutely poetry in motion! Stunning boat and congrats to Richard his face says it all.
Then again your face Nick was absolute love!
So when’s Richard opening a workshop up and a secondary business for potential customers?
Can’t wait to see the full tour and thank you Nick for the complete build on this stunning project… 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️
Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
I have eagerly been waiting for this and it’s been worth the wait!
What a stunning boat! It’s been a great journey seeing RED made and was great seeing Richard’s and Nick’s excitement as they piloted the boat. 🙌 to both of you and for sharing this with the viewers.
I have loved following this project. Congrats and thank you
You had a lot of fun Nick... 😂🤣 RED is definitely your colour. Great Drone shots by the way 👍
How awesome is that!!! Congratulations to everyone who worked on the boat. 😉👍
Brilliant Machine - Brilliant Work - Brilliant Photography ! The work you have done is truly impressive bringing such a beautiful machine back to life but better in every way. I couldn't look away, every inch, every detail of her is beyond impressive, what a job you've done. Red is on Fire - Bravo.
Thank everyone involved for this one. Great Series
Having followed project sunseeker from day one, it is a real treat to see it finally in the water. What an incredible achievement.
What we need to appreciate is his amazing camera work. Especially when he was wake boarding of the back lol.
Love it, Nick! Woohoo!
What a magnificent project and yacht and it is only the beginning of a wonderful story!
Lets see this beautifully restored old gem go through it's paces. Love that song towards the end of the video.
Much diesel was burned that day!
Fantastic video Nick, this has to be one of my favourite projects i've seen of any type, amazing job!
Nick, you looked like a kid on Christmas morning driving that boat! Fantastic!
Looks like so much fun. Congratulations for finishing the project and the successful sea trial. Feeling so happy for all involved :)
Hi Nick and Richard, That was a nice show of Project Sunseeker the Sea Trail great show I see a happy Lady RED or just RED stretch out her legs with her new eniges with spectacular drone images by Skyflicks Media a great job they did Thanks again I can hardly wait for the next show of Lady RED😉😀🛥
Ignore everything else - stop the press - it’s finally here! And what a stunning day to launch a new boat!
What a lovely boat. That turn at 10:44 ....wow
Just binge watched the whole build, makes watching the last one even more enjoyable! You holding the steering wheel and pretending to drive it without the engines in and Richard telling you to "make the noise then"
Awesome, glad you enjoyed them 🙂
The noise it makes when you advance the throttles from idle is smile inducing, love it
Absolute beauty just gliding through the water 👌🏻 great aerial shots too Nick. Love love love it!
We had a Top Gun drone pilot, I thought we were going to be wearing it at one point! 😄
@@AQUAHOLIC Some of the shots were quite inspired
Looks absolutely amazing
WOW exhilarating indeed , a stunning success! Thank you Richard and Nick
Can’t wait for the full tour 😊
Awesome, that looked like so much fun. Thanks for posting this Nick.
Absolutely incredible! What a result. Well done to all involved
Thank you kindly!
