Kind of a funny story I have to tell about how I found out about this. We took our 24 ft Regal from Deland FL to Astor FL to eat at the Drifters waterfront restaurant. We were pulling into the no wake zone in Deland and saw this police escort with about 10 boats and had no idea what was going on, we then hollered to another boat find out what all this was about. Turns out it was the great loop challenge leaving to start their journey. I then looked them up and followed along the whole time on Facebook and then found out that he was stopping in New Symrna beach FL for a meet and greet at the Garlic restaurant on his way back to Deland. We went over and met Capt. Red Flowers nicest guy ever and what a great cause all this is for. We also knew which day he was going to be pulling back in. We and about 15 or so boats waited at the south entrance of lake George, Astor FL and we all followed/escorted him along with the police back to Deland. Best of luck to them getting to a million!

What a great challenge and great cause!!! Congratulations on a successful journey!!

ok,,, so ,, a quand un bateau avec le sol et ponton a plat? et que dire des plafond plat dans les chambres (galeon 360/400/420/460 ? VOILA UNE BONNNNE IDEEE!!!!

it suck's being disabled it would take 5 life time's to afford on On Social Security. but the beauty on that boat tho

10lbs of you- know-what in a 5lb bag

Love seeing Trip on BoatTEST

This is the first video I’ve seen that mentioned the adjustable captains chair. I am so happy. This chair seemed too low to have a view when piloting the Galeon 500. That was then only downside to this beautiful boat!

Still no performance review on the 62?

I had not considered a Hardgrave before, but it looks great, and appears to be well built. I like Capt. Boo's perspective, although would like to see basic performance information. 👍👍

Nice boat ;-)

Thank you for this video, it is very informative and for me everything has been covered to make a decision to have a test drive.

Is that true 2.3MPG??

Just one question what happened to Captain Steve ?

But where do you get diesel on a lake? I have never seen diesel except for in saltwater marinas.

WOW separate shower!

Thanks Captain Steve. Always enjoy your presentations.

Looks like you had a bit of an accident there with your elbow.

Nice boat

nice boat, but galey, cabins, wc ??????? This in NOT in depth tour.

nice boat...

Steve is a great Ambassador for this great company Riviera!

If that sun pad is any indication of the quality of their manufacturing...

Killer sun pad.

Wow, this boat is phenomenal

Stretching the bounds of credibility to call this a review and test. Seems more like a sales tool for Sea Ray. As a potential buyer, this tells me nothing about its shortcomings or its performance in poor conditions. Don't have a problem with you being complimentary about the boat which looks wonderful, but I'd suggest being more honest about the description of your video.

9:13 is it normal to see the wirings there?

B😍😍mies

I would not buy that boat. The haul design sucks.

What people need to understand is that mercury active trim hurts speed and efficiency all but the most challenging head or following seas conditions. These hulls need to be in the water. Maximize the water line. The hull is save piercing and needs to have the bow slicing through the water. De activate auto trim and use tabs to keep the nose down. Your video shows the boat bow high. No! Not with the Axopar.

when is next video coming???

I love this company, thank you for the features tour...I looks forward to how she performs. 😊

Lekker man lekker 🇿🇦

Oh this is huge she said 😂

I am confused. this felt more like a commercial than a test video. no numbers given, no details and why didnt she pull it out, bring it in? I thought she was a captain? 😮 I expected distance numbers, best range, details on the engine, looking at all the equipment. Instead we got lounging and sitting back. this woman is not happy.

So, what did you find that you didn't like?

How was the attitude of the boat going downsea in the rough ? Did it track straight ?

is the draft of 26" the maxdraft fully loaded?

That fuel burn at 36.1 knots, was that pr. engine or combined?

Beautiful!

When I learn how to fish, I want to do it on this boat.

why a 2 million dollar boat is a good boat? no fking shit guys

Captain Boomies is awesome

I will like to see a silent 72 yacht or even 70.

From Melbourne (Victoria Australia) I want to reach Eden in 10 hours so custom tank of an extra 50 gallons. You`ll take green water in a blow (Bass Strait gets one daily to 50 knots) so I need that front water deflector to be able to be totally enclosed. There`s no fuel available until then. I~d put in a water desal too. Otherwise this beats Riva`s 50 footer so that`s impressive. The shape is so modern it takes some getting used to. All round, a very nice boat indeed. Congratulations. Price?

I’ve watched several of your boat videos and I’ve thought they’ve finally got someone as good as capt steve that I’ve been watching for 7-8 years I think. I kept thinking I know this guy from somewhere and I just realized who you are, I use to watch your videos of your cruising around Florida in the little pilot house boat, I think it was a Parker or something similar.

Captain Boomies 🤌🏾

9:30 The sunshade must be deployed with all four poles. So you shouldn't have to pick them up and carry them individually. It should be in a removable holder so you can bring all of them up to the bow in one trip.

Should have showed Captain Boomies having fun with the helm!!! Cool boat!

Extremely comprehensive summary. Very professionally done.
