£700,000 Yacht Tour : 2010 Oyster 575

[@seanogden927]

She's a beauty and is ageing gracefully. Love the interior and wood colour. I think the laws of physics don't apply to yachts as she looks 4x bigger on the inside than she looks from outside !!. Lovely tour Nick thank you.

[@captainswoop8722]

Unlike power boats a sailing yacht doesn't have to sacrifice a large portion of the interior to the engine room.

[@martigrey5872]

The solar panels are on another boat

[@joey2471]

Came her to say the same 😉

[@fizyx]

Thought so, and the way the davit slots in between the panels is really unsettling!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Maybe... 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@chriskelly6559]

Ain't no maybe.

[@r.a.monigold9789]

Twelve years ago, 2010 - there was the Haiti earthquake, the UK economy came out of another recession, Chile also had an earthquake, there was the eruption of Mt. Eyjafjallajokull that spewed ash everywhere, BP had a major oil spill (not that one, another one) and David Cameron became the UK prime minister. Yikes, those were the "good old days" (?). I do believe this World traveled boat has faired its journey through time in much better stead than most of us humans. I'm exhausted at the thought of it - Thanks for the tour, Nick.

[@mytube001]

One of the most practically and sensibly laid out sailboats internally, that I've seen. No gimmicky stuff. Shared heads between cabins instead of wasting space with en suite for every cabin. For long-distance cruising, I would've converted the small aft cabin into a workshop space with tools, spare parts, bench with a vice and perhaps a sewing machine, and stuff like that. And the bunk-bed cabin on the port side would be converted to storage, perhaps with an extra fridge/freezer unit.

[@ajkgordon]

That's an option on most Oysters this size. Some have a hybrid workshop and sea birth cabin.

[@futte2303]

This is the reason for sailing around the world. I get to dream of the great adventure of distant shores, small palm islands, crossing the equator and sailing south. It remains a dream, but what a wonderful yacht. They have thought about the decor here, nothing is placed randomly. Great video Nick.

[@iKvetch558]

Um, Nick...about those solar panels... ...which were not actually on the boat you were looking at? LOL We all have those days...no worries, mate! 😁😁😁

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Maybe... 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@trentstoner4102]

I'm really coming round to sailboats, it's the unlimited range and opportunity to explore the world. This was a very elegant boat indeed

[@Derulais]

And they're cheap!

[@godlyobject6509]

0:37 It took me a second to realize that the solar panels were actually attached to the other boat. Also nice to see Jay Leno expanding to boats now, haha.

[@gordonsimpson3235]

Lovely. Oysters are another class above most yachts...a bit like Swan. Always beautiful understated classic looks and built to last. You wouldn't know this boat is 12 years old! Quality always shows.

[@captainswoop8722]

They have gone a bit 'marina queen' with their boats since they were taken over and refinanced. They have sacrificed some of the sailing features to make cocktail parties easier (things like no traveller on the main and compromised cockpit for ease of access). Bu they have well thought out interiors and are top quality. Now that Discovery have gone to the wall along with Gunfleet they are the best blue water yachts you can buy.

[@dilligafwoftam985]

The owner may have told you she was only in the Caribbean, but Cruising the Coral Coast (Lucas) at the nav station is a pilot for the Great Barrier Reef (Queensland, Australia). She's done a lap of the block.⛵🤓🇦🇺

[@bobuncle8704]

I do like the Oyster series. Thanks Nick for another great tour.

[@stephenmurray9850]

I was also going to say about the solar panels but on review Nick didn't say they were attached to the Oyster , just that they are a good idea. Nice sail boat and with the power winches and sails very easy for someone with a disability (like arthritis etc) to sail her . Thanks Nick.

[@drumswest5035]

Yes i think you are correct, it looked like the solar panels were attached to the other boat

[@swedishkev]

He talked as if they were on the Oyster. So it was nicks mistake,all forgiven lol.

[@kungfusansootsoilihofuthun8895]

Fabulously beautiful sir Nick

Oyster and deck salon, I just see those words and I start drooling, I absolutely love these yachts, for those in the know they are the go to boats to buy, I would buy one at the drop of a hat. Absolutely brilliant, can’t thank you enough for such an awesome tour, keep em coming 🤩

Hi Nick, And as always thank you for this great show of this Oyster 575 a real blue water sailboat and it is a beauty the nice salon with all those windows great, the big space what you have inside sleeps 8 with 2 heads very nice Thank you Nick that was a good show

[@Joseph-ki3zj]

Thank you for your boat tours Nick !! Love them all. FYI I was told by my captain (rope) on a boat is called Lines. 😂. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday …

[@swisswildpicsswp3095]

I really like that it has 4 cabins. Often, boats this size only have 3 cabins and 2 or 3 heads for some reason. But you're ALWAYS more comfortable having your own cabin, even if it's small. I always find that it's a shame having a 60 foot boat and not being able to invite 4 people to stay or travel with you.

[@donnataylor9294]

Very, very nice. Love the wood on this yacht.

[@nasosnasos8054]

Nick, we need to get you on the new Oysters because they are absolutely stunning

[@sleepindragon179]

Oyster's are the Rolls Royce of the yachting world. Beautiful boats.

[@kieranharriman7055]

Loved that sailboat Nick. I’ve only ever been sailing once so still find the concept (tacking etc) a little confusing. There is something appealing about wind power though. Great tour. Great boat.

[@MarkPoppinPringlesleaf]

I'm always amazed by the amount of space you have on a sailing yacht. Every inch is used. For the main cabin though I would need to add some decoration to break up all the visible wood. Thank you for showing her to us Nick

[@SchlaftaterNrzZz]

Im always amazed by the size of your Mom

[@captainswoop8722]

that's the benefit of not losing a big chunk of space to an engine room.

[@colbr6733]

She is in very good condition, very nice yacht indeed.

[@tomg8636]

I do love an oyster, that said I’ve never understood why they drop the saloon table and chart table inside the boat. All those lovely windows, and you can’t look out of them when at the chart table, or the salon table. You can on the discovery yachts, which makes a lot more sense to me…

[@thecocktailian2091]

Smart interior design on this one. So rare these days. I would eagerly and happily get half a dozen mates together and sail to far off paradises.

[@bryduhbikeguy]

Oh,good gosh.The 2 solar panels Are connected to the ship.They're mounted on the davits.They should produce enough power to charge a couple good sized batteries to run some lights at night.I really like the entire layout.It was very well done when designed and built,and the owners have taken great care of it.If I wanted to sail,this would be the 1 for me.

[@jimmyquinn9639]

Nice looking yacht ⛵️🛥🚤👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@DJNickMiller]

Excellent

[@danielamazing3264]

One would assume that the engine isn’t just taken out of an old golf! Anyway the layout and more specifically the space is amazing especially considering it is a 2010, roughly 60ft, sailing yacht. Brilliant tour as always Nick!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Thank you! 🙂

[@ajkgordon]

Pretty much! They are marinised VW 5-cylinder TDi large car or van engines. Many of the parts are widely available from main auto VW dealers. But some of the specific marine components can be more difficult to source further afield and rely on being couriered more often than the more common marine engines from the likes of Volvo or Yanmar.

[@captainswoop8722]

It is a slightly unusual choice, Volvo is the more common option but they are good engines.

[@iKvetch558]

But wait...are we sure that the manufacturer has not overstated the performance of the engine? It is a VW diesel, after all. LOL Sorry, I could not resist...I will show myself out. 😂😂😂

At the start of this video my thoughts are 'oh no it's one of those boats with no water-where I worry when you are walking round the decks.'

[@thelostllama5261]

lovely yacht, my British brother

[@captainswoop8722]

Lovely. Last of the proper 'sailors' Oysters. Plenty of options for sleeping on the lee side although provision for lee cloths and boards and split mattresses on the double berths for lee cloths would make it a much better offshore boat. Plus I would go for a Solent Rig and either single line slab reefing or in boom. Their current range has sacrificed some of the 'proper' sailing features for an easier time when you have cocktail parties on deck unfortunately. Now that Discovery have gone bust Oyster are the best 'blue water' yachts though. I am still in two minds about the twin helms. I think If I was going to go proper 'blue water' with one the security of a single helm deeper in the cockpit would be more reassuring than being stuck up high when the wind starts to kick up a bit and the boat starts to ship some green..

[@Anton-Kant]

solar panels are a good idea but not when they are on the other boat lol

Very nice boat. My dream boat is an Oyster 60 or bigger. My only gripe with it is that it is not aluminum constructed, but realistically I don't see myself sailing somewhere where it would be needed and.... I can't currently afford one lol.

Please review that green hulled boat in the background next!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

It's already on the channel!

[@MrRnipperBrockleBroadcasting]

Well at least Nick knows the Aquaholic audience pays attention to every detail, but I think he might be after more sponsorship- clearly the glass repair glue hasn’t come through yet, We’re still waiting for Princess to provide that boat he deserves, and I don’t think we heard if Miele provided appliances for the “Super house” refit, so is he now aiming to be the new face of “ should have gone to a particular high street chain of opticians” who I notice have a couple of branches in Torquay and Paignton !🤠

Hi, a really nice sized sail boat and well looked after ,cheap on fuel , but I wonder what price the sails and rigging , replacement might be ? Back to the old saying , if you ask that ? you can not afford one . A GREAT VIDEO off all the bits and spaces Nick .

Very nice boat! I've been wondering and hope you can answer this question, Nick...which hull-form is most efficient: a sailboat like this or something in a similar length like a Nordhavn (trawler)? I would think the sailboat would be more efficient, so why not use this hull form (suitably modified) as a passage-maker?

[@captainswoop8722]

Sailboat is very efficient but has different requirements to a motor yacht. You can't directly compare them.
