$2.5 Million Yacht Tour : Two Oceans 555

[@seanogden927]

You can't beat a catamaran for space, this is huge for the length. Love the clean bright finishes and layout. Great tour Nick thank you.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

You're welcome!

[@treborretsnom6186]

I'll say it...I love the light finish.... it's just soft and warm...I can smell the salt air wafting into my cabin! ❤ Nice

[@gsav1320]

for that price shes a steal!! for sure one of the best valued boats in the channel under 3 million USD

[@9VARZ]

Any sub-80 footer that could push past 1000 nm at cruise is very worthy of respect! What a machine this is! Thanks for showing us around, Nick!

[@Unuthryear]

Have you ever heard of Nordhaven? All 46 footers greater have 3000+ miles range

[@sw8407]

No internal bridge? Who would want to travel a 1,000 NM completely with open bridge?

[@9VARZ]

@@sw8407 Probably not too difficult to retrofit an enclosed or semi-enclosed FB with this platform, I'd reckon.

[@9VARZ]

@@Unuthryear Those are great boats too. Notice that I said "any". Hahaha

[@wardes7585]

A didn't know that South Africa manufactured boats of this calibre! That's awesome to see. This is really a stunning catamaran 😊

[@Ca55-WP]

You may have heard of Leopard Catamarans? They're super popular and are also built in Cape Town, South Africa. Other brands built there are Balance Catamarans and XQuisite Yachts as well as Hammer Yachts. Damen even builds a bunch of offshore vessels in Cape Town. Pretty cool.

[@chrisonYTtour]

I’m always amazed at the space available on a cat… I particularly love the casual coastal vibes of the interior and that forward fly bridge sun bed is absolutely where you’d find me… great tour Nick 👍

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Thank you! 🙂

[@leos8720]

[@120Livi]

Love this boat and love these reviews of smaller yachts. Somehow they're more relatable than the +100ft superyacht tours.

[@muhammedhamsa3187]

Two Oceans is quite a common name in Cape Town. The Atlantic and Indian Oceans meet between Cape Agulhas and Cape Point. Catamarans are the better option to deal with the these turbulent waters. Great to see our 'local' brands represented in the USA.

[@scottcolligan1730]

You can tell the quality simply from the cable loom in the engine room, very impressive boat. Beautiful beachy theme. Love it.

[@Mrsnichols1965]

Cummins B series are perfect for that boat. On top of that, there are literally millions of those engines, so parts are easy to find, and not terrible in price.

[@g9rud]

I am a sucker for cats and the flexibility of configuration of this one definitely makes it desirable they are definitely going to sell a few of these. Nice choice Nick 👍

[@rvineyard5770]

What a lovely boat! I really like the layout and the sunbathing area in front of the flybridge

[@easybigun7825]

I hope you can get a main deck helm as an option, just in case the weather turns. Thank you for the tour as always.

[@al5846-1xall]

One of the best Catamaran I've ever seen, the deck configuration and facilities are just great. And with that price range I think it's a bargain. Great tour as always from Nick, regards from Bali....

[@godlyobject6509]

11:44 Anyone want to talk about the school bus on the water there? Great tour, Nick. Looks like that window to the saloon moves, as well as the doors. Very nice layout.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Those are ferries (but I see what you mean!) 😄

[@godlyobject6509]

@@AQUAHOLIC Children get to ride those!? Jealous. :D

[@mmsmits2868]

Love the catamaran space, and they did a really nice job with the interior decor. Fantastic engine room too! Hopefully there's a way to add some teak to the decks because that's a lot of GRP... Thanks for the tour!

[@ironichumorist]

it is a very good first hull. it seems they got the cabin spaces just right. i am not fond of the allocation of space on the main deck. galley is too large in relation to the rest of the space and the saloon seems chopped up with the dining and extra seating area. the interior access to the front deck is very nice but i am looking for larger drains there (maybe they are hidden). no internal helm....big issue. they could fit one small screen, throttles, and an autopilot repeater nearly anywhere in the main cabin and they absolutely should. glad the put the exhausts below the waterline. nice touch. lovely tour, nick. you are getting more adroit at dealing withe unplanned cameos which i think will become more common as your channel grows. cheers.

[@macbouncer8525]

"no internal helm....big issue" have to agree with that, maybe there wasnt room?? 🤣🤣🤣

[@andrewleatherman4931]

Love this catamaran! Great layout, if I went with one I would do just what this owner has done. The color scheme is great too, nice, bright and airy. Excellent tour Nick!

[@simongood9460]

Really nice layout and bags more cabin space than some of the other Cats you've featured. The saloon is a real standout and I love the sunken area at the front. Nice it has so many configuration options too.

[@manuelvanderslikke680]

Hi Nick, And what a great start of this week with this Two Oceans 555 wauw what a space inside I like the big galley and salon the big bedrooms even the twin all ensuite and a lot of storage on board very nice Thanks again Nick that is a great show ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@iancharlton678]

I like it…… decent proportions. I like the absence of a helm on the main deck…… I would definitely go for 4 cabins, duplicating the two hulls and keep the forward main deck as social space. However, I don’t like the only helm with a central screen to hide behind. In rough weather or night passage it would be grim. I assume it can be totally enclosed with vinyl etc, but relying on a view out in poor weather would be stressful The fit and finish does look a little “flat pack”, clean crisp and tidy but not sumptuous. It reminds me of a modern hire craft. Excellent tour as always Nick 🙂🇬🇧

[@AQUAHOLIC]

If you're planning a lot of rough weather and/or night work, you're probably looking for something different to this, which is all about lovely days out on the water. 🙂

[@irishterminator.]

Hey Nick another awesome catamaran and a whole lot more space than any other yacht of it's size, I think I would have my owners cabin on the main deck with that great view out the front, have a great day bud and all Aquaholics 👍

[@gregmcmullen6698]

I have to challenge how much time, other than sleeping, that you spend in your cabin other than to get some privacy. So 1) why waste the great view on a saloon cabin with a huge wall blocking your view, it's usually dark when you're sleeping and 2) do you even really need a huge owners cabin when you wont spend much time there. Its sort of like going to Disney World. Why pay top dollar for a room to sleep in, because from sun up to sun down(or later), you're never in the room. Clearly there are other benefits, but to the point. Gorgeous cat though, Cheers !

[@MrCrystalcranium]

Range is amazing for a boat that can go that fast. Don't like the sailing cats but these vast, powered machines are perfect for a family that goes out, tosses the anchor and plays, eats, swims and lives! They are starting to grow on me especially this 3 cabin layout where the owner's accommodation is so large. It's beautiful.

[@RobertCardwell]

Thank you for a wonderful walkthrough and thank you to Vincent for arranging all.

[@colinturner4158]

It looks absolutely lovely very bright and spacious all the mod cons you come to expect.Excellent video as always Nick thank you

[@AQUAHOLIC]

My pleasure!

[@rogersmj]

I love the decor on this boat, very comfortable and casual and beachy. Great space. Slightly strange that on a boat with such space and range the only place to drive it is from the open flybridge...I would want an interior helm position. There's so much seating in the main cabin, I'd give up a little of that to put a helm position down there *or* make it so the forward part of the flybridge can be closed off.

[@anthonybasiliere9366]

Nice to see you enjoying a little Florida sunshine Nick. Sooo much real estate on this vessel! As always, much thanks for the thorough walk around.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Lovely to see a south african boat on your channel I've work extensively on the electronics on these boat and I just love all of them too many to mention but all very beautiful boats

[@maryholder3795]

You went into the salon and I went WOO, spacious and the pale wood and all the windows makes the salon look light and airy. Which carries on into the cabins. Very very nice boat the owner made some good choices.

[@sickjohnson]

What a beautiful Yacht Nick, and mad respect to Vincent too. Now that is how you treat people who are promoting their products!

[@dieynad]

Hello. This Catamaran is quite stupendous. The woodwork finish is amazing. I love the coziness of the owner's cabin. My favourite area is the sunbathing section. But then, the living room / kitchen is so beautiful and inviting too! ❤ The huge spaces in Catamarans always continue to surprise me in good way, of course. This one is one of most beautiful that I have seen. Thank you for the lovely tour. 🪻🌺🌼🎉

[@neilwharton720]

I love those aft deck controls, no engine shut off !! And exposed like that not very ascetic or safe.

[@r.a.monigold9789]

Two Oceans Catamaran - one hull per ocean. Impressive yacht. Because "cats" are twice as spacious as single hull yachts, they can be twice as much fun. And this boat looks to have fun designed right into the GRP. Thanks for the tour and thank you Two Oceans and Vincent for sharing.

[@richards6367]

Named Two Oceans because it’s built in Cape Town, South Africa which has both the Atlantic and Indian oceans.

Very nice catamaran and lots of well laid out space for a boat of that size. Thanks for another great tour!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Thanks for watching!

[@cbrusharmy]

I've heard a few stories where those lightning rods have saved some sailors from getting their fiberglass sailboat's bottoms blown out and equipment fried, and of course some stories where the worst happened with strikes without them. I suspect how and where one uses the boat would have much to do with risk mitigation, which might be why you're not used to seeing them. Lovely boat; I quite like how they designed this interior. Cheers, Nick.

[@regg3y]

It's nice but with the open flybridge only, I don't think it is for UK waters. For 9 months of the year anyway.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

I doubt you'll see many over here.

[@riksmith6452]

Not a cat fan as a rule but I like this one, I'm looking forward to you bringing us the new galeon 800 fly, keep up the great tours nick

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Me too, should be a great boat!

[@IslaSprollie]

Hi Nick, Just wondering, of all the boats you have tested so far, what would be the next one you would upgrade Smugglers Blues 2 for? A realistic affordable upgrade. Great videos, as always.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

That would depend on the budget!

[@terryhughes7349]

Clever design. I like the wider space design, very comfortable.

[@simono4991]

I normally don't really like boats that look like apartments - they ought to look "boaty" - but this one pulls it off really well, it's really tastefully done and the space is amazing.

[@brianmiller6443]

I've actually heard of them before. I think they have one of the best layouts on a catamaran. I also like Horizons layout. I don't think any other manufacturers comes close to either of these two. Oh I forgot about prestige they have a decent layout as well. If it had an enclosed flybridge it would be perfect for where I boat. Great tour Nick

[@nickwatkins5321]

That’s so spacious and airy. I think the interior looks a bit ikea, but it’s still rather nice with some interesting details. That pushes on a bit! 25kn is pretty decent, 1,000+ nm range is fantastic too. Very nice Nick

[@richardmuller7598]

Now that’s a catamaran that really shows off its advantages! When you first entered the main deck, I literally thought you were standing in a modern apartment! So far I didn’t really like catamarans, since especially the cabins seemed very small and pressed together, but this one is different. Nevertheless the owners cabin wastes some space somehow, the double bathrooms aren’t really necessary and probably I would go with the four cabin layout (if I ever won the lottery). But finally a worthy opponent for my all time favorite, the Galeon 680 :) By the way, great tour as always!

[@ernieb3626]

Absolutely fantastic. What a dream

[@oneslackr]

Thanks for the tour Nick. I wasn't familiar with this yacht company. It is a nice cat for sure and the speed & range surprised me. Not bad at all.

[@nickgreen1271]

Nice cat. Warming to these big power cats. Very versatile for layout.

[@debbiejudd4933]

That's a lot of bang for them buck. It's an impressive holiday home. I would love to own this one. Thank you Nick.

[@Rodrifuuu]

I just watch this channel so it's easier to choose a home when the revolution comes.

[@DrCrabfingers]

You really get about Nick! You may have the best job in the world! 10:24 that isn't a lightning conductor it is a lightning dissipator.....the theory being that an earthed dissipator (earthed to the ocean) such as that one will make the boat 'invisible' to a lightning strike, When storm clouds have developed an electrical charge anything of an opposite charge will attract the strike....so by putting an earthed object high up on the mast it reduces the chance of a lightning strike to the boat... the electrical charge won't 'see' the boat as a means of forming a circuit but will simple see ocean.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Ha, that's really interesting! Thanks 🙂

[@tonyosullivan2382]

[@TheNielskau]

Brilliant review. I can feel the summer warmth all the way from Miami. I like this layout with less bars and more relaxing space. Gives it a real family getaway feel 😊❤. One thing though - not really great for Scandinavian weather if that exposed helm station is the only option. Could be really wet and windy up there 😅

[@srupp9271]

Truly amazing the interior space you get for a 55 foot boat. I love the layout especially with the master stateroom up on the bridge deck. I think you might have mixed up the number of the range though. I don't know where you got the range of 1500 miles from. According to yachting magazine the range is at 10 knots 1Gal / mile which would give it a range of about 700 miles. According to southern boating review the range is at 400 -420 miles at 18-19 knots. I checked on 2 oceans website and they don't give a number of range at all which speaks for itself.

[@MarkPoppinPringlesleaf]

I've never been a fan of the catamarans. I think its partly to do with the cabins. But this one I really like. Plenty of room in the cabins. great use of space giving you that floating home feeling. I like the multi options of layout that you can have. Thank you for showing us around this one Nick

[@d14551]

After seeing a few catamarans on your channel I've changed my fantasy boat to one of them - this one's a frontrunner. 🙂

[@schan_ban]

I see a lot of different power cats out there and I think this has one of the best layouts, designs, and options of any cat out there. Throw in the beastly engine and range and this thing might just be perfect. For $2.5M it's staggering, I see features this has like the flybridge crane arm that aren't seen on $6M power cats.

[@darploin5071]

Yes I would definitely get it as the four bedroom layout and it's some really nice catamaran from South Africa Howard is its quality and fit and finish I mean there's a holdup? But it look like a very nice boat and I do like the upstairs layout

[@Robbie1820]

[@JoeBlow-ub1us]

Yes! I have been hoping for a tour of this boat from you! Hopefully we can get a tour of Two Ocean's 675 soon as well 👀. As always, great video. Also, did I hear that correctly 1500 nmi at 18-20 knots? If so, what does it get if you drop it back to 8-10 knots? this boat is my dream.

[@paulogrinke7020]

Did you say 1,500 nautical miles? Impressive. Only thing I would do different is have the top where the helm is, have it fully enclosed. Otherwise nice catamaran. Especially for one less than 50 feet. Great job. Thankyou

[@Broadcastvehicles]

[@Mudefordguy]

Love this one, there are plenty on the market but I love the layout and light, there wasn’t a dark room or space. For UK I’d like to see a semi enclosed flybridge and rear deck version so I can use in Lymington harbour in the winter but sure they can accommodate this. Vincent was a nice guy who I’d do business with as not a wide boy nor a yuppie Daddies boy if anyone remembers those and there are plenty in boat sales as you know Nick, not including you! 😂. I will order one of these, but still will have 2 Northman’s for the Hoi polloi 😅
