What a beautiful craft. Combines ocean going seaworthiness, classic naval design reminiscent of 1930s, coastal attributes, redundancy with two diesel engines… and more. One thing I would change would be a gas cooker with rails instead of the electric induction cooktop. Fridge? Any room for washing machine and dryer combo? Generator/inverter etc etc Would love to see their yachts as well.

Bestevaer is pronounced as "Beste-Far" with a long AA sound, short for Beste Vader, Great Father or Great Leader, the loving nickname for Michiel De Ruyter, the 16th century Dutch Admiral who routed the English navy. You may also know the Dutch word Vader from Darth Vader...

This would make a nice river or canal boat. I wouldn't take it offshore with a 0,85m draft. My only critique is that the showers look incredibly small. I would opt for one large shower rather than cramming two into a boat this size. The interior seems tight below decks, but overall the construction looks superb. Thanks for the excellent video on what looks like very capable coastal cruiser or river boat.

@@dereksmith6126 Class A on paper means nothing in real operating conditions. As a manufacturer, let them clearly state such a claim, if any, or let them prove the first ocean crossing themselves! Firmanın kırmızı renkle vurgu yaparak aktardığı bilgi(web sayfasını ziyaret edin): "A simple shape and a sharp bow. Beautiful lines. But still, a yacht that is extremely comfortable under all weather conditions. Apart from its singular design, the Bestevaer 53 M/Y offers a phenomenal boating experience and is ideal for exploring coasts, rivers, lakes, and cities in all weather conditions." There is no emphasis on the Offshore or the Ocean!? In my opinion, the company's sailboats deserve the top five list, but these motorboats are not value for money and cannot be placed in the CE:A category in practice!

Sweet. Needs a holder for my Beer. The only thing that concerns me is air conditioning. It is essential for America and lots of Dutch boats don't have it. Does this one? Or is it an option? If yes then this is possibly the perfect Yacht for me. I've crewed in the Caribbean and run aground there more times than I care to think about but with a draft of 3 feet I'd be totally safe.....be great on American inland water. Perfect great loop boat with side trips on all the waterways and right under 80% of the bridges where everyone else in a +50 footer has to sit there till they raise or rotate the bridge to allow them passage. I always wanted to ride "The Big Chute Marine Railway" on the Trent Severn waterway and this would a perfect boat to do it in. Downtown Chicago (hey it's safer than Somalia), Memphis and New Orleans all have a rich distinct flavor deep and plenty of Pubs and after a hard evening of sampling the local delights we return to that master cabin to enjoy the remainder of the day. Then the Panama Canal and all the way up the left coast to Alaska. They say bad things about San Francisco but I was there for 2 weeks last month and it seemed fine to me. SF Bay is great on a boat. This one is perfect...if it can have air conditioning. I see the stabilizers and I trust Yanmars. I see I blew the whole brevity thing but I really do love this one.

The retractable davit/crane is brilliant. However, standing on the rail to launch it is not. I guess you don't have to stand there, but it is obviously the most favourable position to launch it from. Could be a moot point for some of the target buyers who maybe retirees. Overall a lovely sleek bit of kit though.

Funny how names can be pronounced so differently between related languages using same spelling even changing meanings. Take the famous superyacht builder Oceanco. The localsand Dutchwill say: Oce-Anco. Not that silly when looking at that capitol A in the logo. Now the Anglo Saxon say Ocean-Co and to be honest they aim at the worldwide market so yes that is the proper way to say it. On this name Bestevaer, no it is NOT best -ever. The name in Dutch means bestevaer: good to sail for or upon. In fact it was the nickname of Admiral Michiel de Ruyter given by his crews because he took care of his men; bestevaer meant best to sial with him. The builders imply this yacht will take good care of you. Ok end of history/trivia lesson of today now back to happy sailing all :)

There should be suntanning beds on the bow. The stern should at least have railings so no one drowns. It would also be nice to fish back there. There should be somewhat of a tuna tower or upper controls. I see that the downstairs controls have no open windows and that really sucks.

Pretty much no boat is "worth it" anymore, for anyone who has to care. More relevantly: Boats are now so complex, that I venture the vast majority of those who do have $1.5mill to spend on one, would be better off with a very cleanly designed and built one like this; than a larger one which is built less immediately obviously. I'm not in a position to categorically state "aluminium" over steal or composites or wood; but one advantage of welded metal boats; is that they have to be built in a more orderly manner than molded and glued and stapled and.... composites. It's easier to slip up unnoticed with composite construction. And less straight forward to survey. Doesn't mean composite construction has to be done badly (many aren't). But unless you're some seafaring Mormon with 4 wives and 12 kids, who has $1.5mill to spend; I'd rather take the more naively inspectable construction of a high quality metal weldup, than a fancier, curvier, less immediately obviously built composite boat; even if that means "settling" for nominally "less" boat for the money.

Hull forms amendable to high speed running, don't anchor, nor drive slowly, in a comfortable manner. You also need to run around making sure nothing, and noone, is loose, before letting her rip in anything rougher than a lap pool. Which is too much of a pain, in a boat with this much accommodation (but not enough accommodation to have permanent crew handling all those pesky details, like a Pershing of Mangusta....) It's all about priorities. This one prioritizes comfort for living aboard, over speed.
