- This was a challenging video to film and produce, covering what it takes to get a yacht like this ready to get underway. We are excited to share this one with you and hope you enjoy it. We show every step involved from the time we step aboard to get the vessel underway.
Once we get the yacht out for a cruise in the bay, we all enjoyed some lunch in the salon. Afterwards, we change our approach and have no music, subtitles, or distractions, and invite you, our viewer to enjoy the rest of the cruise onboard with us as we head back to the dock and tie up again.
We spent a lot of time and effort to capture these clips for your enjoyment so we hope you enjoy them. Special shout out to Capt "Bubba" and his 1st mate Jake for helping us capture some much-needed 3rd person and chase video. We also had Jose' and Mike on board to provide all of those neat angles and perspectives. Many thanks to each of you for helping out.
These videos are made for your enjoyment and we appreciate your time to check them out. We always welcome your questions and comments. Your subscription and likes on our videos help us to know to keep them coming.
Fair winds and following seas! - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Very impressive. Fun to see a real yachtsman and first mate doing the ship handling thing. Amazing condition on what is now a classic vessel. Congratulations!
First class operation. This capt is not a newbie. Idling diesels are real music in that spotless engine room. Good video! Thank you!
Very interesting to see a boat that I helped to build so many years after. I was at Hatteras in New Bern NC back in 1987-1989 on line 5 which was only 65' Convertibles. I was in station 6 which was the interior cabinets, headliners, outside portholes, main door, guest and crew staterooms build, and the padded walls, etc... Nice!!
Thank you for watching and the comment. That is really exciting to hear you worked the line for these in their hey day, that must have been one heck of an interesting job. The longevity of these battleships is a testament to your team's fine workmanship.
Thank you for an excellent video, very informative and enjoyable! I was curious what it would be like to run a larger yacht, but now I know it's out of my league. MAGNIFICENT yacht BTW!
Don't sell yourself short my friend, you should definitely have someone along to help you, but you just build a routine and practice it, document it, use it. Thank you for watching.
Nice job Captain, Great handling. You have a beautiful boat, very clean and looks very well maintained.. I would die for that engine room, We have a 1980 43DCFB, no engine room just engine space..lol and that means space for engines not me. We also stern into a narrow slip. No thrusters nor are they needed, we do have Naiad Stabs
Much appreciated. That engine room was a pre-req for buying one like this, there is no way I would own some of the ones we work on. It can be a real struggle and if everything is hot, forget it. Love the Naiads we thought about adding them.
That is one super clean engine room👍
Thank you! It takes ongoing work, but is worth it when you don't get "slimed" for working in there, and you can see if anything is amiss right away.
NICE TUTORIAL!!!.AND YOUR MATE IS AWESOME...VERY PROFESSIONAL 🎉😮
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
That was an excellent video, informative (I am always looking for things to add to my checks AND I really enjoyed the virtual cruise with you. Great footage underway!
Appreciate the feedback, and one thing we did not mention, because we admit to making some assumptions, is we check the engines often while underway and have 4 cameras down there.
Very nice and educative video. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it, viewers such as yourself are why we make the effort.
Good info! Well shot too…
Thanks! This one took a lot of editing to get everything where we needed it.
Really enjoy your vids. This was a good mix of maintenance and cruising. Love seeing that high speed wake. Even like the shaft seals and some active stabilizer shots would be cool if you have them. Thanks
Thank you, glad to hear it. We actually do not have stabilizers yet, but are considering a Naiad system. We did get a shot of the dripless shaft seals here, but we could expound on that in a future episode.
Beautiful Hatty. High Point, NC
Thanks for watching!
That’s my dream boat. Very thorough captain!
The old Hatts are out there! Thank you for joining us, more to come!
Just found you! I’d love to see a video focused on close-quarters handling, and then how/when you transition to the wheel.
Welcome! Yes we are going to try to do one of those soon, covering all that tight quarters stuff and general marina / channel ops.
Great video! Enjoyed it!
Awesome, thank you for checking it out.
😂 I ran a 65c for several years out of Lauderdale and we didn’t have half of the gizmos you have especially thrusters.
That was a nice little trip. An episode on maneuvering would be great.
Glad you liked. Good idea, you thinking docking/mooring or rules of the road and traffic, or both?
👍✌️
Good deal, more to come!
I was cruising with friends and the steering wheel came off in my hands
Should have checked that
Another time I had a freeze plug fall out of the block and filled bilge with a foot of water
A little hand fishing and I found and replaced it
Should have check that.
Routinely check engines every hour under way and once I found the gas line dropped and was ribbing against the drive shaft
Should have checked that
Boating is always about checking things
Could not agree with you more. They will usually "tell you" what they need before something major happens, if you keep an eye on them. Be ever vigilant!
Any fuel burn numbers on that ol Hatt?
Hi there! Yes at hull speed (about 11kt) it burns 20-25gph, and on top the water (up to 22kt depend on fuel/water carried) 65-75gph - both numbers also vary by sea condition and intake (ambient) air temp.
