    i have to say this is one of the best explorer yachts i have ever seen. The woodwork and finish throughout the yacht is nothing short of what you would find in a Dutch boat yard no short cuts on this boat.

      Isn't that short 7,000 liters of fuel...To be an explorer yacht?
      Unless im doing the calculations wrong, or its 4x more efficient, PLEASE let me know...
      Don't think I can get to the Azores on a tank...

    Good Day !, I always love to watch all Dutch-built motor yachts, and this is one as usual very smart design as well as a practical vessel starting from a gully with a great double sink to being beautifully appointed on suits in every possible way, so in my opinion is only one more comment, great job in designing.
    Thank You all involved in building this perfectly design and layout vessel 👍👍👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐, Melbourne Australia.

    @fredjones7705 Před 5 měsíci

    I love the centrifugal fuel separator. I think water in the fuel is the chief cause of engine problems. It happens more often in rough weather when everything is getting sloshed around (bad time for problems) My main experience is crewing on a Burger 87 on the great lakes and it happened to us. By the next year the owner had installed an Alfa Laval seperator (those things ain't cheap) and we never had fuel problems again.

    That cap rail needs varnish. Unstained decks are nice as is the stainless on the bow. Within, the use of diffuse LED lighting does a nice job of making lower staterooms feel warm and inviting & not claustrophobic. I feel like overall her design is informed by the venerable Fleming Pilothouse, with European sensibilities. Much to like here.

  • @wellcraft19
    @wellcraft19 Před 5 měsíci

    Might be hard to accommodate this suggestion, but a shorter lens (although not a fish eye) would greatly help us viewers getting a better 'feel' for an engine room layout. Even in cases like these when they are relatively roomy.
    Apart from that, a lovely vessel. Rather short range, as expected at full cruising speed, and still 'only' 3,000 miles at 9 knot. Curious what its range would be in a more traditional - for long range trawlers - speed of 5-6 knots?

  • @josephkordinak1591
    @josephkordinak1591 Před 3 měsíci

    I like the layout of the boat. Wish it had more visibility of the bow from the flybridge. Does the boat have any method of stabilization? I am surprised the boat has a 1000hp being a full displacement boat.

    A couple of suggestions. Slow down how quickly you pan, it's to fast - viewers rarely have a chance to focus. Check your video stabilization, the shake is distracting. Lastly, consider a wider field of view, your current FOV likely adds to your rapid back and forth panning. Understood that your walk-through was probably time limited which makes planning time. Good content, enjoy your channel.

    Love Van DerWalk. Thought after Helga, Lene and Velga they would have popped more with people because they said they wanted to do more superyachts up to 50M in length in either steel or aluminum, but that was 2 years ago and we really haven't seen anything from them and they haven't really been out there too much with marketing. I woukd have thought people would have mentioned they had yachts going into production but other than a few spec sessions, I haven't heard them making first cut on anything bigger than 35M. Maybe I'm wromg, because again, they don't announce their moves .like some yards do, but if you know different then please share

    She's elegant but seems to lack a lot of practicality to be a real explorer yacht, in a large see there seems to be a distinct lack of hand holds, the galley would be terrible in a big sea, no mention of real storage i.e freezer and dry goods but didn't seem obvious; fantastic for the Med but real live aboard passage maker I don't think so (sadly).
