    Smugglers looking absolutely tiptop, the wax polish makes a massive difference it looks immaculate. Kudos to the yard crew who are laser-focused on the task at hand.

    Regardless of make, model and year of build, it's great to see an owner take such good care of his boat. Enjoy your time on your boat!

    Nick, Please put a WARNING notice on the video! The shine on the hull was so bright I needed my sunglasses!! Seriously though, great to see someone take such care of their boats. You are an inspiration for all that has a more mature (Mind you I didn’t say older) boat that looks nearly brand new. I never tire of watching the launch of your boat and look forward to the upgrade video. The pump for the SUP is brilliant! Thanks as always for a great video and let’s get you to 500k!!

    Smugglers Blues 2 looks absolutely brilliant! That first day on the water after a few months of winter are the BEST! Not even a little (ok, a lot) of rain can stop the mariners from making some early season waves! Safe boating this season! Blessings... 👍👍

    Well done.
    Nothing says "I love boating" more than launching your boat in the rain on a day not meant for boating.

    @mini_steve Před 2 měsíci +3

    It is incredibly refreshing and a pure joy to see someone wearing a life jacket in even the most mundane things like moving a boat around a marina from berth to berth.
    Wish more people did.
    Mine is like a second skin. Never on the water without it.

    Very nice indeed Nick, Smuggler's is looking very good for the coming season, well done to everyone involved.
    I myself have recently got a Garmin 95UHD plotter with sidescan sonar and a Standard Horizon VHF for my boat, Casper (The friendly Boat), fitting them is further down the line while we are renovating the lazarette and the cabin. Last week I cleaned and re-waterproofed the canopy and was thinking how nice the boat looked without the canopy up, so looking forward to finishing the work and better weather to get out and about.

    @lapsedluddite3381 Před 2 měsíci +2

    She's stunning! Thank you for bringing us along on this exciting day ... just one complaint though, we really needed the 'Smuggler's Blues' soundtrack playing on your great new stereo as she hit the water and you zoomed off into the sunshine!
    (err... as you gently brought her back to her berth in the pouring rain...)
