£535,000 SuperBoat tour & drive! Sunseeker Hawk 38

[@visionist7]

What Nick has that other reviewers often lack: - Effortless video skills. We always see exactly what Nick's showing us, the camera doesn't shake about or have a weird field of view, even when climbing & descending stairs and ladders. That's not easy! But Nick makes it look easy. - Knowledge! The amount of time Nick hasn't been 100% sure about something on a boat is rare enough to count on the fingers of one hand. This means a very confident commentary without "um"s and "er"s which other reviewers suffer from. This greatly increases our trust in his reviews.

True story bro 👍👍

Bloody hell that's the fastest leather trimed disco lit sea toilet I've ever seen.😕😂 Your living the the dream Nick 😉👍👍

[@Mikeandlucy1]

Way back in the late 80s, I was co driver to Shurook Ardeshir on a race boat called Blu Finale, she was a one off built by the legendary Ron Wobold. In 1989 we held the S 2,000cc Class water speed record at 81.40 MPH or 70.7 knots. In those days, there was no such thing as cushioned seats and every wave was like bouncing of concrete, watching this video brought back a few good memories. Thanks Nick.

[@Wyldesdmfer86]

You are a proper gent and I greatly enjoy your videos. Its like window shopping with a good friend that knows about boats/ships.

[@travelcampervansandmore]

Imagine sitting on the bog at that speed!

[@AndyRRR0791]

You'd shit yourself, surely!?

[@wingcommanderwalton3820]

noname if you run out of bog roll you could hang your bum over the side! At60 kts it should give it a good clean

That forward storage locker would be great for drugs or bodies to be dumped at sea. The secondary storage locker can store machine guns and ammo. It should be used in the next James Bond movie.

[@ICA509]

hahahahaha))

[@OmluTerong]

Yup

[@neiltitmus9744]

Looks like a hot tub

[@Guy-zf5of]

I see you measure space like me. I think the forward storage locker can fit two to three bodies easly and the toilet can fit a lot of bags of coke. Boat can stay ahead of the coast guard with it's incredible speed

[@MrMarko4]

‘Feels like a boat you’re in and not on’ Love it

[@bipolarmarket]

"No I'm only doing a yacht tour," LOL 6:31 Off the chain Mr. Nick!! Fantastic piece of machinery

[@RurlMerican]

It must be a great boat. It put a big smile on his face. Enough it made me smile.

[@reecedabeast4439]

ABSOLUTELY LOVE that you add the price to the title. Lovely video as usual!

[@Tmanintn]

You cannot buy the smile on AQUAHOLIC's face after putting down the throttle on that thing. Priceless. Loved this video! Great stuff as always...

[@fumanchu7]

I got supremely jealous watching this. It looked like a great time putting that boat through its paces.

[@Ob1sdarkside]

That's insane! Handy having a toilet, somewhere to change your underwear after a spin in that.

[@bionicsasquatch]

Super Glad they let you drive and you went full out!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

It would have been rude not to! :D

[@CaTaffy]

I'm a sailor and I still consume your motorboat reviews as soon as they come up. Keep up the excellent work!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Great to hear Daniel :)

[@timogaleon1630]

Lot's of thought gone into this boat, and it shows. A proper piece of kit to add to the superyachts! Hope they sell well.

[@aardvarkmindshank]

Holy Moly. When that loud music cut back in on the high speed run I though something that sheared off the boat and it was about to explode. Ha ha ha, awesome!

[@Bedrock1966]

Me too!

[@r.a.monigold9789]

...something DID fly off the boat - GRAVITY.

[@tonyknox6739]

I saw sunseeker were going to do this on there website, nice to actually see it as a real yacht and not on paper, great stuff

[@hansy3]

Been appreciating your many talents in creating these videos. Beautiful and calming and mind blowing at times. This was one of my favorites.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@kenmelottejr6379]

I had fun just watching this video! Thank you for bringing this beautiful machine to us!

[@DBO3671]

1:03 - can't wait to see your review of the yacht that uses one of these as a tender Nick :)

[@AQUAHOLIC]

I'm working on it! :D

[@visionist7]

I want matching orange leather throughout the yacht!

[@Francoberry]

This thing looks super nicely specced. the hull colour mixed with that orange/tan upholstery is lovely! supercar-like

[@AQUAHOLIC]

It looks incredible in the flesh..!

[@Kennethah81]

Fastest I ever went in a boat was 42 knots in my last boat (a Skibsplast 675 HT). This thing is almost twice the length and 50% faster! What a ride!

[@SeekingSiobhan]

Nick, you did NOT have to go that hard on the music and editing... and I'm SO GLAD you did! What a thrill -- so fun to experience this through your lens! Much appreciation and support from Madison, Wisconsin, USA!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@maritimefilminguk]

Epic boat, awesome review! What's not to love? One of the most exhilarating boats I've ever had the pleasure of blasting along on!

[@meatblade3490]

Love your walkthroughs, knowledge and general presentation in all your videos. Thank you sir!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

You're very welcome! Thanks for your comment.

[@kfeltenberger]

You had me at "Fabio Buzzi designed..." I've followed his work since the late 80s when I got into offshore powerboat racing and his designs were freaking amazing!

[@debbiejudd6512]

Now I Wana go for a cruise. Thank you awesome . Stay safe Nick. Have fun out there.

[@greezoid56]

As I work in a biscuit factory my weekly highlight is when the new chocolate mix is due in ,,,,,, Save me , swap lives man.

Great high performance tender. A little barrow for one to buy for a day to day fishing vessel. I’m not super rich but I deafly don’t see a half $1 million worth of boat there

It's all the carbonfibre. It's hard to produce

Thank you JJman! :)

[@DetergentSloth]

What a machine, I'll add that to the wishlist!

[@Trueseeker-r8q]

I worked in a team that built a few of the xs2000's way back in the early 2000's never got the chance to experience a go in one although I believe sunseeker did offer to take us out. It was very similar to this boat in fact I believe that deck mold for this boat could be modified from the original we used. The hull spec was bullet proof multi layers of Kevlar , what a fantastic machine on the water so stable at speed that looked awesome 👌

[@richardharrison6993]

That looks absolutely frightening!! 👍👍

[@frankiegregoriou4604]

You are very very good, i enjoy your work immensely

[@MrJimmyjammmy]

Nice machine, not sure about the need for the disco lighting. Does it always play dubstep when you get over 50 knots?

[@AQUAHOLIC]

User selectable! :D

[@gaycha6589]

Agreed

I guess Enya didnt seem quite apropriate :)

[@redclay4099]

Dang that is a fast boat

[@Kennethah81]

Was that a boat or a cruise missile? Hard to tell the difference for a moment there :)

[@johnpeel6601]

Wow that is an amazing thrill seeker Nick but at well over half a million you could almost get a couple Jeanneau Leader 33's although at nearly 50 Knots I guess the Leader would be a sinker. Sunseeker designers must have loved that commission, lucky people. A fabulous piece of design and addition to their repertoire.

[@ricardoayrons5823]

Very very nice speed

[@johnpeel6601]

Hells teeth that is an incredible machine and you can tell that you enjoyed every single minute of that experience. Exhilarating and fun for the first hour but you end up a broken man after the second. I have experienced traveling at speed in a boat of this type and the novelty soon wares off and you end up traveling at 20/30 Knots to get some piece. But hey-ho it has great design and looks beautiful but at over half a million you can get a Fairline Targa 45 Open or GT for similar money and sleep 6, has a comfortable ride, relaxing and you stay dry. Fairline’s F Line 33 is not as beautiful or exhilarating, but has a fair turn of speed, is comfortable, less than half the price and is worth considering. Thanks, Nick, for a great review, the ride must have been so enjoyable.

[@spacetoy4584]

Glad you like her

[@nathanm5388]

Was expecting to see you in your Eddie the Eagle outfit Nick - goggles and helmet.

Which sunseeker to date do you think is the most luxurious, I love the tri-deck sunseeker Aqua buster is there another sunseeker that you know or any other super yacht in that class that beats it.

I don't know which model Aqua Buster is, but there is a Sunseeker 131 Yacht tour on my channel that is very special.

@@AQUAHOLIC Sorry, Aqua Vista is a sunseeker 131 super yacht.

Watching this a year after the vid came out. Wondering at the start why I recognise the marina and the boat it's self, and I realise that my family's boat was almost opposite and I used to see it a lot

[@royfroud7580]

Certainly went very fast when coming into Lymington River yesterday afternoon. Speed limit is 6 knots by the way.

[@xx6489]

I like this boat.... A lot...

[@olliedunks6285]

Did you feel nervous when driving? I would be haha

[@AQUAHOLIC]

I was a little before I drove it, but it's so incredibly stable at very high speed that I was totally confident once I was driving it. It felt way within its capabilities even at 60 knots!

[@thomaswalters1210]

Will you be doing a vlog of the Princess R35?

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Hoping to!

[@Yorkshiremadmick]

AWESOME 👏🏻

[@Hitstirrer]

To get it into a road car perspective the max speed indicated there was 60.8 knots which converts to 70 miles per hour. Imagine that overtaking you on a canal alongside a motorway.

[@joseantoniolago5857]
