Hi,as a retired marine engineer of 40+years I believe a place for everything and everything in its place.The engine room looks a shambles,and I would feel the need to strip the whole interior back to the shell plating…..but given the TIME and money…what a project..if only😀.
So agree... I would just add an understanding spouse, to your list!
@@I-am-awayTOM ...leave the spouse at home, or temporarily divorce her or get separated 😆
@@Texaca Good advice except two things 1. free labor 2. she can kick my ass!
Those trawlers can spec out very expensively. It could be worth a lot
As a retired second engineer I believe there is room for improvement in several areas to include HOUSEKEEPING, specifically related to that shithole you call an engine room…
I would be extremely worried about the condition of any machinery that hasn’t been replaced in the last 5 years due to the nature of the business. If it’s not making money it’s costing money. A good equipment maintenance log might relieve some stress …
I would love to see the 'after' pics. I hope somebody
with vision builds a home on this vessel.
🤞
I was thinking that a few strategically placed pipe bombs might be a good start for the retrofit of this old girl LOL. The bones are there but my God she needs a lot of TLC. Under the right ownership, she could be turned into something amazing for long-distance cruising but a wallet the size of a steamer trunk would be needed. I would love to see someone with the right vision and the finances turn this old girl into something amazing. I have been a subscriber for quite some time and I really enjoy your videos such as these. Thank you so much for the work you do bringing us these interesting videos. Cheers from Canada
I joined the RN at HMS Ganges in 1964. My first draft was HMS Bulwark as a radio operator. I spent an entire day being sent all over the ship from store room to store room trying to get a fuse for a dead light. Great days. Nice video and a lovely trawler.
Thanks shippers 🫡⚓️ BZ
@@ajw1467 Well deep down that makes sense. I was a skimmer on mine hunters.
theres a point in most boats life when they need weighed in ,,, this is on the edge.
Hoy Navy Boy! full marks for the "preparing your Scran" comment, deduct 10 points for "Chain Locker", remember, it's CABLE!! Seriously, I want this blank canvas, the potential is immense, my dream boat. Please keep up the good videos, do-er uppers are my passion!! Better to watch than the Cannes/Monte Carlo plastic boat videos.
Lol - roger that shippers 🫡
If only I had the money. I do hope someone buys her and makes her shine again.
My dad spent 35 years as Engineer (20 of those were Chief) on a larger version. I know what he would say, so I'll just leave it right there.
This could be a great project if the hull plates thickness reports come out with a reasonable life expectancy. The main expense here would be the engine room. Since I hate one engine boats, I would replace the old engine with two new ones of a lower horsepower and size. That would require the modification of the aft part of the hull and maybe the rudder system. After an investment of newer electronics, a new generator and a good cleaning of the tanks, I would move the boat to Spain, Turkey or Croatia where the interiors can be done at a cheaper price. While they work on the interior, all exterior surfaces can be stripped and repainted. All this would have to be done for les than $1.2 million. One cent more than that and there are many trawlers in the same size range in the market that do not need that investment and are a lot newer. Anyway, it is a beautiful old boat.
As a weapons engineer I was disappointed by the distinct lack of any weapons.
This could be quite a project but what an effort it would take.
I found your channel recently as I'm looking for a steel ship to add to my marine based electrical business. I like that you tour these older ships. You have been overly kind on this one. I appreciate that is what you need to do, as it would be hard to convince people to let you tour them if you were not. IMO the seller is going to be hard pressed to get any money for this ship, it's basically scrap so if he can't give it away to someone with a dream, he's going to have to pay money to get rid of it.
Seems a good project for sure. The lay out is good and has workable basics. Have no idea about the investment required or its feasible condition. But would love to see her if she got a retrofit.
WOW, an EXPENSIVE undertaking! I would not want a boat that is not moveable. The expense to get it seaworthy must be astronomical!
She can be moved. Her engine still runs!
That trawler has great potential to become an expedition ship. Yes, you are right that the engine room is as it was in active service. Wish she gets a good new owner who appreciates the wonderful lines of this trawler.
Nice boat I'd love to get it
Thanks for another great trawler tour, great camera and CRAZY owners SPA 😅
👀
Time, money and imagination could do wonders with this boat. Hopefully soon, as that wallpaper is a crime! 🤣
Love the lines of her hull!
But 125k is a bit much for just a hull.
What was her fishing number? I would like to search her history and old pictures.
That ship next to the other fisherman, is it a Friese Maatkast or Kempenaar? A Dutch barge for sure, it's for sale as well?
I am not sure re her fishing number or if the barge is for sale. Check out the link in the video description as I am sure that the broker will know more 🫡
Nice
£25 would be a more realistic price given the cost of repairs.
This will be a very big money pit
Tşk ler.

Great lines and loads of potential but very deep pockets and a schedule of quite a number of years to bring it back to what it could be.
A bit weird having the watch chair to port.
E.R. a shambolic mess, but suspect most of that is result of the rather naive and unskilled "landlubberish" conversion. Dutch boats are almost always well thought out, and all the essential kit seems to be well installed and still there, so looks to me like a few weeks of tidying, systems overhaul/maintenance would probably put her in reliable condition again. The take her somewhere with warm weather and cheap happy labour and do the rest.
👍❤️
I wonder what a $1M budget could do for this?
That's a "marina?" Looks more like a ship graveyard to me. Don't marinas typically have... water?
The tide was out
Is the engine a Gardner 6LX?
No
WHATS IN THE TINY FRONT ROOM!
Did a blind man fit the engine room? beautiful craft nonetheless.
good price for that much
What is “overplating” you say it needs?
Vessels rust most at the water line it's rotten so needs new steel
That will swallow £100k + to make it sea worthy
Multiple that by 10
I would say your number just to make it movable.
Best part of the engine room is the gardner deisel ,if it runs the rest is junk 😢😮think i'll pass on this one
It was a project boat maybe 15 years ago, now it's better to use this pile of steel as an artificial reef somewhere. It's sad but realistic. The juice is not worth the squeezing unfortunately, not even if you get this "thing" as a gift.
the rust from the mud
The cost would be why to high.
Dear God!
Money Pit! Probably cheaper to build new!
Love your vids, for the most part. Very informative but not all yachts are to my taste. Ill wait to give you a "like" AFTER ive seen it. NOT before. Also, some of us would like to hear the measurements in "feet" in addition to meters. Just saying. Fair winds!!!
This could appeal to a young couple starting a youtube channel. But it needs to be cheap.
I think this big windows can not stand a rough see
A whole lot of work. She has some nice lines but not sure it would be worth the money to properly refit her over just buying something that didn't need that much work. I mean it needs everything. Sand blasted to bare metal and completely gutted. You might be able to get it done in the far east or south American shipyard that wouldn't bankrupt you.
Engine room and bilges ALWAYS tell the story. A mess.
Money pit
I looks beached?
The tide was out 🫡
Way too much money ! Gut the whole thing out and start over !
So spend another £1,000,000 on it and you will be back to snuff.
What a derelict.
I have a farm I could and would sell to acquire this vessel or somthing like it , but I have no crew. Who has the courage and adventurous spirit to join me. I can pay for the vessel,but I can't do all the rest by myself.
nearly £30k to fill it up with diesel. 😂😂😂😂
👀
@@YachtBuoy that's give or take a bit. did the maths when you said the capacity
As much as one loves boats, comes a time when one has to admit its a goner.....too much money needed and wouldnt reflect the return....sorry
i think it's scrapyard material, what a dump
Sadness… just sad…. That’s the vibe…. Everything dies…. This is a dead thing….
This boat is not worth more than 20 Euro --- and thats pushing it
Rotted.
Needs welding area... mill and lathe... ❤
