Lol..all nonchalantly "There's a man on a....I don't know what the hell that is, that's fantastic." I love you Brits and your humor. 👍👍

[@AQUAHOLIC]

😁

[@9VARZ]

That's not just a gentleman's cruiser but a real pocket superyacht! Love that engine room and her General Arrangement! Her next owners must be so lucky!!

[@JustRideTheVibe]

If I'm ever in the market for a decent boat and I hear that the prior owner was a "perfectionist" or "obsessive" my ears are instantly perking up. Every time I hear that on this channel, the yachts are positively immaculate and beautifully-maintained. My first car had a similar owner, and I wasn't disappointed!

[@custardavenger]

"Gentleman's Cruiser" fantastic description. What a brilliant boat. Big space were needed, hugely practical and well thought out, and that engine room. I would be very happy to own that one.

[@tinkmarshino]

My brother you hit the nail on the head with this comment.. Well said!

[@Iam-mad]

This one is a jewel, not only because of the built quality, but those golden MTUs...

[@itsallgonemad]

A “refit in 1819”… golly this boat is looking really good!!! 🤣 Jokes aside this is a gorgeous vessel, beautifully built with loads of proper wood fittings, lovely! Thanks Nick! 😃

[@debbiejudd4933]

I didn't expect there to be that much space. Especially the master and the galley. Its always amazing how much there really is. Thank you Nick.

[@moejaime2654]

I love these style of boats !

[@seventeenseventysix5193]

I’m an Alaskan man. I can tell you, most of the larger vessels in my neck of the woods are similar in style and build. Up here vessels need to have that little bit extra. Extra hull strength, or integrity, extra handrails for heavy seas, extra large wheels for green water. I absolutely loved this video! I’ve watched every video on your channel and I am grateful to you. Thank you. "Now and then we had a hope that if we lived and were good, God would permit us to be Pirates" -Mark Twain

[@AQUAHOLIC]

You're very welcome! 🙂

[@Bob8091]

Haha. " Marina Queen ". That made me smile. I can imagine certain boats being nicknamed ' Olympic Flame '. (it never goes out.)

[@bryduhbikeguy]

Good one.

[@g9rud]

Now that’s a proper yacht, an absolute stunner, this is why we love your channel so much, you do keep bringing us such interesting craft. This has to be in my top ten. Nice one Nick 👍

[@DanDavisHistory]

This is a real beauty. Love this one.

[@simonstamenkovic7982]

I dont know what i was impressed with most, the yacht or that little device for lifting up the floor😃

[@HoumousNet]

OMG!!!! Here it is... the dream boat. I follow you for years now, but if I could choose one, it will be this one. Thank you!

[@jonathanking4107]

Those engines! Wow. The owners cabin. Wow. And a crew cabin the same spec as the rest of the yacht. Fantastic. Fabulous layout. Love it. Thanks Nick.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it 🙂

[@paulgolding1009]

I think you really like this one Nick got the feeling you’d have It and why not she is a real piece of class and nostalgia.

[@mariafulton1213]

I like the modern yachts but I still love the classic gals with all of the classic looks, instrumentation, etc. Love this one!!!

[@Tom_Oben2]

when Nick drops a video I know I am in for a treat. lovely Aft Cabin boat.

[@oliverfrey7511]

This is an absolute, full-on dream yacht. Sell house(s?) and cars, retire and putter around the world while sitting in that fabulous salon with a good book.

[@withoutwroeirs]

Compared to all the other fancy yachts this is worth every penny of that £1.2m. Could well imagine island hopping year round on this yacht.

[@gloriousradio]

My heart melted when you went into the aft cabin, what a beauty!

[@blest5132]

what a charming little ship, tons of room, tons of food storage, range, great woodwork and I absolutely love that you can walk out your cabin and be right outside. I would be so content with this beauty. thanks for showing us this nick, cheers!

[@rogerburn5132]

You can buy it when you win the lottery. 👍👍👍👍

[@gordonsimpson3235]

I know this boat well Nick. Hush used to belong to a good friend of mine (now sadly passed away). He was very fond of her. As a classic car dealer, you can imagine that the 'Rolls Royce' bespoke finish of Hush fitted his persona perfectly! At under a million (recently reduced), she makes modern cruisers of much lighter construction and shorter length , look very expensive. As you would say....."a proper little ship"

[@EhTeamAustralia]

Yippy! Coffee and an Aquaholic yacht tour, with no less than a washing machine IN THE ENGINE ROOM!. That has to be a first for the channel? My Sunday is complete 😊

[@davidmwood560]

Absolutely superb gentleman's motor yacht. I do love a classic; boats, cars...classic every time

[@paulcaton7093]

This is one of the loveliest boats you have had on the channel for a while. 👍

[@lougubrious9624]

That engine room sold it for me. That work bench! Amazing.

[@maveriky43]

This now is my new #1. Layout. Power. Practically. Amazing! Love it!

[@thefacultyoffunk]

Proper boat. Wonderful!

[@paulc2689]

What a lovely boat. Real nautical styling and a proper cozy feel. Very nice indeed.

[@paulvanallen-lononca]

Years ago, waking up to caffeine and Sunday newspaper, was the spot.... today's is with Nick's channel and of course the coffee. Thanks again for the " lot". Canada!

[@colinritchie1510]

Now that is a proper boat for a gentleman! Reminds me of so many traditional boats built in that era where quality was the norm. The layout is reminiscent of the larger Grand Banks models, with the aft cabin and rear cockpit. That engine room is amazing, and everything about this boat says quality. I'd love her! Perfect for offshore cruising on the West coast of Scotland. OK, not so glam as the modern plastic equivalents, but for me she would be a joy forever!

[@roadkill265]

Wow if I had the money I would buy this in a heart beat, I love it

[@MarkPoppinPringlesleaf]

A proper little ship feeling. The wood work through out is stunning. I do like those gold engines. Never seen them that colour before. Thank you Nick for showing us around this little beauty

[@onlyinthehood2243]

Another STUNNER MR. NICK🤩🤩🤩 Amazing every time I see an Ole GIRL brought back to life🤙🏽 AND THOSE GOLD ENGINES….. RESPECT FROM DALLAS, Texas ✊🏽

[@bobbutcher7725]

You can't beat class and this is a 100% classic yacht. Yep, will do me fine thank you very much.

[@rentedmule569]

"I don't know what the hell that is." Nick, you're a treasure!

[@Bob.martens]

Refitted in 1819. A real classic!

[@Tscharlieh]

Looks as new, but has this nice „classic“ feeling to it. This boat has definitely character.

[@gsadventures678]

Nick is absolutely head of the class when it comes to boat tours! Soon he will be cruising around in his very own 20 metre yacht!

[@danielamazing3264]

What a lovely yacht, fantastic quality and I do love the wood in this one. I definitely think this would be a brilliant way to spend a week cruising down the coast! Great tour as always thanks Nick!

[@120Livi]

Amazing how much layouts have evolved over the last 2/3 decades. Love this boat.

[@swampdaddy87]

Beautiful yacht indeed! The owner's cabin alone sold me!

[@tvanderwheels3292]

Royal Huisman are serious builders. You just know it's special when it's Dutch and especially when it's Huisman

[@gsmith207]

shes a beauty! The engine room was my favorite! More like a work shop. thanks Nick!

[@duncwoodbridge7152]

What a fantastic ship the master cabin is 8 star at least thanks for the tour Nick

[@debbie09090]

What an absolute gem! Such a beautiful and classic boat.

[@22echomike]

Wow this one is different

[@BlackSharn]

Love these older ones. Such unique designs.

[@SciTrekMan]

I love all the wonderful wood and the details. The need to make new yachts that have this same type of appeal!

[@glenmorris8389]

This is a beauty ! Thanks, Nick !

[@nickbitten9910]

Wow,- that is a classy boat. No further words needed.

[@marchport]

Absolutely beautiful! Classic and stylish!

[@manuelvanderslikke680]

Hi Nick, And thank you for this very nice Dutch build jacht the Huisman 65 Custom a very interesting boat you show us from the nineties and that the owners take a good care of this yacht and did a great refit what a space there is 3 cabins a nice salon and pilothouse very nice Thanks again Nick agreat show of this Dutch jacht

[@seanogden927]

That's a little treasure you found there Nick, Absolutely love the interior with so much space. what a great engine room, so surprised how large it is and Gold engines as well. A beautiful tour Nick thankyou so much.

[@alisavas9526]

Stunning yacht! I'd spend at least 6 months each year living aboard, cruising the entire Med first, and then where ever the mood takes me

[@IamEpsilon27]

I've seen quite a few gorgeous boats, thanks to Nick and Aquaholic, but this is the first time I've fallen in love immediately. If I had money, I would pay anything for her.

[@davidodonovan1699]

Absolutely beautiful interior

[@kmac2729]

Another brilliant presentation Nick .... !! .... I will never own something so fabulous, but at least I can appreciate, albeit vicariously, this lifestyle through your wonderful videos .... Cheers from Killarney, Ireland.

[@michaelaronsohn3624]

And also love aft cabins

[@keith-777]

Stunning "little ship", absolutely love it. 👍👍👍.

[@oneslackr]

Thanks for the tour Nick. It's a beautiful & interesting yacht & not just another cookie cutter modern boat.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it 🙂

[@r.a.monigold9789]

There are neat and tidy yachts - then there is this amazing boat named "HUSH" berthed next to a boat named "RUSH". But before I gush about the like new condition of the HUSH, it is important to mention the originality that has been preserved despite the refurbishing and upgraded equipment. There has been considerable care and a fair amount of love invested in this boat since it's 1995 christening all the way to the 2018 retrofit, as seen here. This boat demonstrates that function can be so well implemented that it becomes the form. Nice.

[@nickwebb9290]

Nick, you have surpassed yourself sir with both the choice of boat to review and also the tour. I would absolutely love a boat like this as I’m sure many others would too. So beautifully built and designed and in such wonderful condition. This must be a rare gem surely

[@motorsport_buddy]

i am a hugeee fan of classic yachts. the different levels that can transform and be used in different fashions. all the teak, the big helm, dream boat!

[@Ugly_Giant_Bag_of_Mostly_Water]

I love these types of boats/ships, and there's something about having a good size aft cabin, very nice.

[@gopher1471]

What a great boat, reminded me of a Grand Banks 46, just bigger... lovely.

[@sadenuttie2234]

Wow. Did not expect to like this one as much as I did. Beautiful quality, and an amazing layout. I normally don’t like at cabin layouts due to lack of space out back for sitting and in the engine room but the fact that the cabin lead straight out is sweet. Would genuinely consider to upsize to a boat like this Thanks for the tour nick

[@jimmyquinn9639]

A beautiful old boat and another great video 🛥⛵️🚤👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@randrewp]

This is so much nicer than those new modern boats that look like hotels inside

[@jacobfroggett880]

This is absolutely timeless, quality doesn't age. If I had the money I'd rather buy this for £1.2M than buy an equivalent new boat (smaller) for the same money. I like new builds but there seems to be too much of an obsession with squeezing more cabins in at all costs when for most they'd hardly ever be used. I guess that is what the punters want though as they wouldn't do it otherwise!

[@jamesellsworth9673]

'Punters' is the keyword. Nothing wrong with them. They just have different needs: to entertain clients and to continue to build the business that enables them to get on the water. If they keep fine boatyards and their craftspeople going, MORE POWER TO THEM!

[@torq1116]

Beautiful Yacht! Great tour. I love the in floor freezer, exceptional use of space!

[@1980peterw]

Absolutly love these old boats!!😍 They have so mutch more soul then the new ones!!😁

[@ryanalley2446]

What a beautiful boat and surprisingly very spacious!! Loved it!

[@wontee2]

Capt. Aquaholic has a super job. He actually (I guess) gets paid for Looking round these boats. It's not fair.

[@TheNitram55]

What a fantastic yacht, to my mind it knocks spots off the modern princesses ect.

[@tinkmarshino]

Now that is what I call a yacht.. not the silly fantasy opulence of those things they call yachts today.. Just a nice and comfortable place to enjoy life in the reality of living.. Why people want all the "fancy" stuff is just to show off there inane desire to be something other than what they are.. To me anyway.. How can any one relax and put your feet up in that kind of environment.. thanks Nick.. I like these kind of boats best..

[@toddkarrick6711]

"There's a man on a, I don't know what the Hell that us" 🤣😂🤣😂 That's gotta be my new favorite quote

[@Raysnature]

Love this. In many ways much prefer this to more modern boats. Should I ever win big on the lottery I would certainly be looking at something like this.

[@ProductofNZ]

I'm very much into the modern yacht designs but this one is particularly interesting. Very homely feeling, I would be very happy to have a couple weeks away on this one.

[@BillWalkerSD]

A gorgeous, proper yacht in immaculate condition! That one's for serious cruising (as long as you've got the time).

[@stephenmurray9850]

When I saw the engine room , I just went WOW .. very beautiful Power Yacht , pity I am not a gentleman ..Thanks Nick for the tour.

[@chrisbmorningstar]

What an absolutely amazing boat there's just so much of it

[@long_view]

What an absolutely beautiful boat - arguably with better lines than even Flemings. Form and function combined than most ever achieve.

[@ironichumorist]

have to say, in have come back to this boat numerous times since you posted it. there is just something about it that is slightly addicting. I have seen every single video on your channel and this boat stands out for some reason i cannot quite put my finger on. it trips all the boxes for range, performance, interior, etc. etc. if i am not mistaken (according to Berthon's website) the hull is a C Raymond Hunt design. And it is aluminum, not steel. wow wow wow. what a vessel.

[@maryholder3795]

Amazing, she's a lovely Lady of the Sea. Thanks.

[@richardsheldon7473]

Awesome yacht, that one Nick,very traditional, great vlog,have a great weekend

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Thanks, you too!

[@Timeculture]

Now this is true yacht design. It’s stunning and everyone can see that it’s a home on water. Remarkable! I would love to see what the company that made this does with all their new yacht considering this is almost 30 years already. It’s a design without compromises. There’s no room with awkward headroom and no shortage of storage and space. Worth every penny. I would never sell it

[@Skillzvideos]

Watch a video on sailing yacht ngoni and you’ll find out

[@RobertLeather]

01:13 ha ha ha I had to replay it three times when you said 1819 before I realised you meant 2018-2019. Ha ha ha It's time for more coffee I suspect. Lovely boat, absolutely gorgeous.

[@snortyhog]

Wow! My kind of boat - it looks like a proper boat outside & inside. I liked that the old instrumentation had been kept - dials you can see even in direct sunlight (not like a modern screen). Sadly I could only afford the model by the lower helm 😢. Thanks Nick 😀

[@eaunan]

Excellent boat!! Very impressive floorplan. Great tour!

[@floppytnarwal1641]

As soon as I saw 'Royal Huisman' I clicked. Just quality through and through.

[@ashleyaldridge845]

One of the best so far

[@bryduhbikeguy]

Wow.That 'ticks all my boxes' and then some.I would very happily live aboard that wonderful ship.Well done to the owners and re-fitters.To putt,and cruise about the Caribbean.To fish,sunbathe,and just relax for weeks on end...

[@graemewoodruff9988]

What a beautiful boat, extremely well maintained and cared for! As you said it’s a real classic.

[@sodunkwales7361]

That is pristine I love the older stuff just superb.

[@simongood9460]

Stunning and you just know it will still look good in another 25 years. I love that tall thermometer in the owners cabin (i assume thats what it was) and not one but two Barometers spotted!!. Definitely the "find" of the year so far, thanks for bring this to us!

[@darploin5071]

Yes that was a excellent video and an excellent yacht. Have a great Monday

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Thanks, you too!

[@1776GalacticXRP]

Nick this is a fantastic yacht. Love the quality and the details. I love seeing the engine room access from the interior unlike most of the newer yachts today which require you to climb down a hatch from the cockpit or through the swim platform. Aside from safety during bad weather, it integrates the engineering spaces with the rest of the boat rather than being an afterthought or isolated far from the living spaces. That little ship feel is definitely present here and something that seems lost these days unless you opt for a longer range trawler like a Nordhavn.

[@rasferrastfarian739]

A classic yacht - lovely!
