last month, he sold a 1998 Chevy Malibu Classic for 25.000, with only 250.000 miles on it. cold a/c all leather interior, and optional teak ash tray.

Thank you wade titcombe.We will take it as a compliment. Right :-)?

I was thinking he could sell a ketchup popsicle to a woman wearing white gloves! He is awesome. Knows his product.

[@cherrypickerguitars]

Love these Grand Banks! But my budget makes me a single engine, tug/trawler type of vessel owner. I’ve got lots of time, but less money, so I need to go slow (6 - 7 knots) on a single Diesel, and I need to go far (3,000 nm range at six knots - with 10% reserve) and I need to do off shore passages! There are very few boats that accommodate this and sleep 4 comfortably, in three separate sleeping areas (two cabins and the salon) - old men don’t like to bunk up! I’ve got a lot to see and do yet, as I became a dad at a very young age, and now, at 64, it’s time for me to see some of the world. My intent is to leave the Great Lakes and make my way to Florida and the Bahamas for a season. The following season will find me exploring the Caribbean as I make my way ever southwards! then it’s the coast of several South American countries on my way to Brazil! Crazy? No way! It’s a five year plan and will entail the use of several crew swaps for the major passages, as the next few years pass! I’ve got a handful of buddies in a similar situation, so crew will be easy. I’ll be fighting them off! We’ll be blogging under my existing “Old Men and the Sea” handle thru my web-site of the same name. The Great Lakes are truly an inland ocean, but I’m dying to get salty and see some Palms! The adventure begins in spring of 2022, God willing, on a Nordic Tug 42’ named the “Alverda June” (my English mother’s name) Yea-haw! Some old Canuck hicks meet “the Caribbean Yacht scene - should generate some big laughs! Peace

[@seagraves2296]

The way this gentleman says “teak” I was sold after the 2nd “teak”.... all the teaks after that were just sealing the deal/showing off

[@fiveowaf454]

A gorgeous boat and a great presentation by someone with the experience to appreciate the value of the features.

[@Coowallsky]

Does this come with any teak? Just curious.

[@davida.4933]

"Look at these cleats..." Well, he's pretty good...the best on YT for presenting a yacht...

[@JamesWright1955]

[@JimmyKraktov]

He seemed a bit long winded to me.

[@dukegunthar]

I just have one question, is there any teak on the boat?

[@tombrown6628]

Michael Gunter 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@MrFloydSaunders]

Michael Gunter there is teak and its both beautiful and solid.

[@windslarry3797]

No doubt about it, the Grand Banks is the Caddy of boats, especially in this size. However, the teak would drive me nuts with maintenance. Looks good, but a TON of work. Even thought a Mainship 430 isn't quite the quality, it made a more practical boat, same performance, close to the same features and benefits, and models with after cabin or bigger cockpit. And NO exterior work maintenance. Also about $100K less.

[@DC-uo5hy]

Fantastic editing, goes back and forth between cruising and tied to the dock. All smooth and professional. Great job.. Nice boat too

[@haydne]

What a bloody nice chap!!! I really enjoy his sales videos 👍

[@bhudd154]

I want to marry him😊

[@srkolsto]

If I got $5 for every time this guy says "teak, beautiful or brilliant" I could afford this boat.

[@cfgyvr6321]

I lost $5 because when showing the sliding teak door on the cockpit he didn't say "brings the inside out and the outside in"

[@savagecub]

What kind of wood was that ? I don’t believe you mentioned..........

[@gf4353]

Solid. Teak

How do they let this idiot sell boats

[@danielroth167]

I know very little about yachts. But I can say with conviction that if I could afford one, it would be this one because a) this boat is AWESOME, and b) the presentation was spectacular and the presenter is genuine and passionate about his product. Instant sub.

Jack Paul : Not so little. Don’t forget he is 6’1”. Actually he’s claimed to be 6’2” in his other presentations. And to think, I was just about to start trusting him!!!!!! 🤣 Dear Richard, please clear this height situation up for us one and for all. Perhaps it is really 6’1-1/2”?

[@SpiralDesignWorks]

It's 2am. I can't sleep. I'm watching the Bob Ross of yacht sales. Beautiful boat and great presentation and drone shots.

Despite what all the armchair "experts" are saying about this particular vessel , I would give my left , no , my right , wait ! , that ones already gone It'll have to be the left, proverbial to own such a beautiful piece of nautical craftsmanship ! One day she WILL be mine , oh yes ,she will be mine ! Thank you Sir for such a professional and entertaining run down on what can only be described as one "GRAND LADY" .

[@tyroniousyrownshoolacez2347]

Does this boat come with any Teak ? Nice teak? Solid teak?

[@stevesmith787]

Imagine yourself with a try of sandwiches. I had to laugh at that one.

[@waderogers]

Just wanted to say I really enjoy your videos. Such a detailed walk through several makes and models of boat and a good, relaxed style of showing the boats. I don't enjoy watching boat review videos where I feel like a salesman is trying to sell me on the boat but would rather watch someone who's relaxed and low pressure in their approach. I live in Juneau, Alaska, and have been sailing here for 30 years now, so I'm well aware of what's desirable for a boat in the PNW. Keep up the good, high quality videos. I feel as if I've stepped onboard with a friend!

[@calibreyachtsales]

Thanks Wade for taking the time to leave us a generous comment. Have a good day sir!

[@waderogers]

@@calibreyachtsales You're welcome. I also enjoy the thoroughness of your videos, taking time to show the systems and the things that are well thought out. Many people online just rush thru the boats and skip over things like access panels for wiring and the access to the engine area, etc. Best of luck with future sales and future videos.

Mr Rogers of Boat Sales...

[@richardbedard1245]

Why is the emphasis on teak, cocktails, and wine storage? I'm getting the impression that many of these boats never leave the harbor. They sit tied to a pier and entertain guests.

[@zeekwolfe6251]

I once owned a motor home, a yacht of wheels you might say, but a huge money pit. Now, I don't flich when putting a $100 into a slot machine, but this vehicle was beyond the pale. This yacht is beautiful but the cost of purchase is the beginning of sorrows. This is past the reach of even well to do people.

nice to see a professional presentation. Great tour.

I loved how safe you can feel if you walk on deck around cabin... i didnt like all this wood inside and this small fridge... But as a concept it is one of my favorites ive ever seen on you tube... In case though you might know please answer these 2 questions for me; 1. With a boat like that can i install a bigger fridge and wash machine? 2. Is it possible to install solar panel to use for energy so that i can travel without the cost of fuel. Ok and 3 one; With a boat of level can someone cross the Atlantic??? Thank you.

Very classy boat. One extremely annoying point that makes me turn the page... when bike, car, house, boat vendors don't state the major specs, ie: model, year, PRICE, ENG TYPE + HRS.

[@calibreyachtsales]

Thank you very much for your comment, MOTOTOYS AUSTRALIA. We always put the link for the specs of the boat at the bottom. Since the vessel is sold the spec page is gone... so that is why you don't see those information any more. Model year is 2005, listing price was a little bit shy of CN$600K. Twin Cat 350hp and 3000hrs. If you would like to have further detail, please contact us at [e-mail] Thank you

[@larrypatterson3957]

Have too much coffee this morning? Life is too short to get your blood pressure up as it appears that you do. I am sure Calibre Yachts prefers you don't call their viewers "dicks". Many of us who watch yacht videos may never own one but still get enjoyment out of watching them and dreaming. Many of us may have questions, which to you may seem irritating, but the questions are asked out of curiosity. So, rather than being the Interpol of the Internet and telling everyone what they should or shouldn't say, try taking a deep breath, maybe have a glass of wine and quit whining! You will certainly live longer.

Hey Scott and Savagecub...why split hairs? It's a gorgeous boat.

If these boats are marketed to couples and families, why the heck don’t they provide another seat up front? Do they believe it’s the “hostess” that’s going to spend the day preparing meals and the skipper plays ship’s captain. Surely an opportunity for one creative boat builder to capture a market. And yes, Richard does paint some good word pictures.
