£700,000 Yacht Tour : Hanse 548

[@juck19]

Found ur channel yesterday as I’m staying on my dads Oceanis 46 and been watching constantly since yesterday afternoon. You are a Gem in the boating community love the videos!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Awesome, welcome aboard! :)

[@fergiedi69]

Another totally professional walk through.

[@charliebaker8701]

Sending my love from New Zealand 🇳🇿, I love your reviews, I’ve watched a lot now, I like how the yacht looks smaller on the out side (unless it’s a super yacht) but the inside has so much room and other places to store stuff like if you have crew cabins, but you only not have 60ft yacht and don’t need to have a crew so all that room is good for storage.

[@hennagal7360]

An absolutely charming tour Nick - very smooth , a pleasure to watch - huge respect to the owner of this beautiful yacht , it takes mindfulness , minimalism and efficiency to the next level - l will be watching this again just for the focus and ambition it inspires

[@bobuncle8704]

Anchor chain counter I believe. Nick. Thank you for a great tour. I REALLY like this boat. I’m a fan of in mast furling and the self taking foresail. Just a simply fantastic boat. I was about to get going on a long day of which I wasn’t really looking towards. This just made my morning and put me in a better frame of mind. For that, I am greatly appreciative.

[@MrReddDott]

Glad to see they have Branston Pickle!

[@PDC4Life]

It's like a tardis, there is soooooo much hidden down below. I particularly like how many windows there are, so airy which helps things just look bigger and spacious

[@PDC4Life]

"Anchor chain measuring fellow" 😂😂😂

[@AQUAHOLIC]

It's a technical term... 😳

[@blackdoublezero]

@@AQUAHOLIC is that the same as a quick chain counter ?

Thank you for more sailing yachts !!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

More to come!

[@RobEJC]

"Properly Lovely" - great name for a sailing yacht!

[@riteshr.k.fatnfine3004]

This is a nice boat. On the other hand, you could review a plastic bathtub with a pvc drainpipe for a mast and an old towel for a sail and it would still turn out Nice Nick.

[@custardavenger]

That is a fantastically well thought out boat. Love it.

[@FLGurl]

All those organized bits and pieces are so get-at-able! I really appreciate a neat and tidy boat. Thank you Nick.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

You're very welcome!

[@seanogden927]

Only one word for the interior "WOW", that is an awesome interior really spacious with loads of storage, if I was into sailing yachts this would be the one for me. It looks more expensive than the actual price. Cheers for the walkthrough Nick really enjoyed it.

[@mepilot1]

Perfect balance of Luxury and Practicality. Bravo Nick. Good find.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you liked it!

[@davidfmelbourne3473]

What a superb yacht. And I love the owner's organisation. Everything labelled, everything in its place. Beautiful colour choices for the interior, cabins 2 and 3. Not so taken with the colours on the owner's cabin bed. I know, it's nitpicking. I'm allowed. We're in our 5th lockdown and I'm bored. And I want one of those anchor chain measuring fellows too. I've just got interval tags on my anchor chain. :-) As usual, thanks Nick, great review and I can really understand why you're taken with this boat.

[@r.a.monigold9789]

I once attended school with the SON of Mr. Anchor Chain Measuring Fellow - we called him Rusty. But then, to see the very fine Baseball Cap Organizing Locker in the master state room was beyond coincidence as I once had a job at "That" company - Hats Above the Water Lockers, Ltd. We mass produced these lockers as "drop in" devices for master cabins in Atlantic crossing sail boats. It truly is a small World (as I plagiarize Mister Disney). What a great boat, Nick. How do you find them? NO. Dont tell, I like surprises. Thank you for sharing (and laughing?).

[@jackaubert7750]

Thank you Nick, was nice to see the head room.

[@jgriff3218]

Like the outtake. Beautiful boat.

[@anthonydb2336]

What a boat!

[@debbiejudd4933]

These boats look so small on the outside. But when you get inside they are huge. Thank you Nick.Say hi to Maggie for me. Lol

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Will do!

[@sebastianjuric2125]

Awsame yacht.. love hardtop and protected kokpit from sun,wind and rain.. also 700 miles whit engine in no wind conditions. superb and many more good thinks..

[@sadenuttie2234]

Love the interior, very nice sailing boat. Lots of room and great woodwork+styling

[@phillo1818]

Boats that tip over while underway, crazy...you should do a showing of a top floor condo from those in the foreground.

[@johnhopkins6731]

I was just looking those up! great location!!

[@g9rud]

Achingly beautiful boat, every boat owner knows you never have enough storage but this is awesome, never seen so many lockers. Ps “chain counter” great tour !

Love this! That lower deck really surprised me.

The Hanse boats are a very nice

[@conradsenior5843]

nice to see you doing sailing reviews Nick. It sounds like you know what you are talking about.

[@LemuriaGames]

best internal layout I've seen on a sailboat so far.

[@safesiteiow3786]

Thanks Nick 👍

[@garrettfuchs2164]

Always comment on the sailboats to let Nick know he has at least one fan that gets excited for every sailboat.

[@johnlane5874]

Going on holiday to Cornwall next week. Nick you've inspired us to hire a little boat for the day from Falmouth to explore up and down river. So looking forward to it, I shall be doing some serious boat spotting - even taking the GoPro , Awesome 😀

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Enjoy! :)

[@nickwebb9290]

That’s spectacular, very impressive 👍 Like the little outtake at the end, a nice inclusion to finish up with 😁

[@madrabbit9007]

Really enjoying your videos on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Wish you had a play list broken up by sail and power as I'm just into the sail boats myself.

[@calebrw]

So great I watched it twice. I'm sure you would mind a sail down to Tahiti for the summer with this.

[@Denstoradiskmaskinen]

Curious how the crewcabin would look like in that forward compartment, guessing they would reduce the owners cabin for it, or not? 3:58

[@iKvetch558]

Oh lovely...I do enjoy the videos of the sailing yachts most of all. This boat sure is a terrific looking piece of kit.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@chasbodaniels1744]

As a non-sailor, this seems a *very* impressive piece of workmanship. Wow.

[@harrys.plinkett7398]

I love sailboats, thank you for covering this one.

[@tobiaskarlsson9771]

Vertical Mainsail battens! Sounds fun to get those out of the sail out at sea when trying to drop the sail (after the furler has failed).

[@stevevanderhorst5234]

She's great! Love the vessiel. Thank you

[@oggmonster175]

Can you explain some more of the sailing terminology? Forsail, spinnaker etc. For someone who isn't looking to buy a sail boat and just likes seeing the tours it would be interesting to hear you explain!

[@luca_sbll]

In simple terms, the foresail is the regular sail you have in front of the mast, while the spinnaker is a very very big sail you can put up when you are going downwind, to go faster

[@Mike-zf4xg]

I mean you could not be a lazy pos and spend the 5 minutes it would take to look those items up. I dunnno.

[@davidl6757]

Brilliant tour.

[@colingratwick9239]

Wow loads of space. Thanks Nick great tour again. I like your style.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

My pleasure!

Lovely Boat! So beamy and well appointed with the three-cabin-head arrangement. Another Fantastic tour, Nick! keep up the great work. We are watching your channel expand in subscribers before our eyes! Well done!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Many thanks!

[@mmsmits2868]

Generally not a fan of sailing boats, but with something like this? I could probably see myself going from Troy to NYC on the Hudson River and have a really good time! (Maybe then sail on to Mystic, Block Island, Martha's Vineyard and Cape Cod...) Thanks for the wonderful tour as always, Nick!

[@chasbodaniels1744]

Impressive itinerary. Sign me up!

Me too!!

[@paulogrinke7020]

Did you say 700 mile range ? Impressive. Great for emergency or no wind days.

[@benjiwayne4295]

Absolutely brilliant, so spacious and beautiful. I would love to take a couple months out at sea with this Boat.

[@SteveMastroyin]

Gorgeous boat. Was out sailing (well, motoring, the wind died as soon as we got the sails up) Saturday although a pretty high stress situation in the harbor with all the boats for Newport Folk Fest. Was feeling a bit like Nick though trying to identify the other boats that were tied off or bopping around.

[@chasbodaniels1744]

Narragansett Bay and Newport Harbor are gorgeous, but I can’t imagine dealing with the water traffic on such a busy weekend.

[@SteveMastroyin]

@@chasbodaniels1744 normally my friends let others take the helm for a bit...not Saturday. It was pretty nuts.

[@tomi7947]

Wow, that's a really cozy boat.

The width below deck is surprisingly large.

[@MaybuTron]

I can imagine the benefits of such fantastic organisation on the owner's behalf far outweigh the time they've taken to organise everything! Can you imagine a bag of sugar spilling all over the place in choppy waters! 😂 Great tour Nic, as always!

[@sonnydelight5737]

Can't imagine a bag of sugar, only sugar packets.

[@eyesofisabelofficial]

Not to worry, all of the individual grains of sugar are labeled as well ;)

[@K1lostream]

I'm sure I'd be just as capable of spilling sugar from a labelled containers as from a bag!

[@afrog2666]

1Hr preparation is 2Hrs in the field, always nice to know where everything is and how much of it there is :)

[@darrylscott4237]

Very,very nice

[@kristoffscuba5466]

The hard top looks great, the reason most yachts don't have that type of setup though is that it adds windage and you loose some main sail area as the boom has to be up higher to clear the hard roof. I'd be very intersted to have a sail and see how it effects performance, especially with the small self tacking jib.

[@afrog2666]

Affects*

[@TheGeezer139]

Hi Nick, Great review as always, The door into the owners cabin i think could probably be a water tight door and not for sound sailing Delos has something simular ?

[@malcolmwatts6094]

Love the out-take!

[@hharadon]

Nice tour

[@thanasisz9689]

I love how organised this owner is. All lockers are filled in like a puzzle. Notice also the pairs of shoes in the master cabin's heads. Clean and tidy! However, there were some face masks in a drawer without their box. That was a foul.

[@gavinluckyfq3609]

Very nice nick 👍

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Enjoy! :)

[@ssnobrakesable]

Stunning.....

[@jonasmarkstad7699]

Would be interesting to see the cockpit closed up. It's a quite unique feature. Does it protect from rain in the back? The "roof-hatch" did not look like it was water tight on the sides.

[@gijsd.v]

Love the video, could there maybe be a review of the Bente 39. It’s a very interesting sailboat with some good design

[@theasiamtmgroup]

I've recently subscribed to your channel and really enjoying your videos. One of the things I really like is, I may see a hatch, or door and wonder "what's in there" and most times, you'll open it for the viewers. I have a question, as I'm all new to this and getting closer to retiring. Is there such a thing as a fully automatic sailboat, to where, all you really need to do is "steer"? I'm asking because I'd love to have a sail boat, as opposed to a powered yacht, but I don't have the first clue about sailing. Thanks in advance.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Welcome aboard! Not that I know of.

[@reo.incognito]

Is it just me or are his sailing yachts reviews getting much better? Before they used to be somewhat lacking compared to his motor yacht reviews, which are always excellent, of course.

[@lambd5578]

Absolutely loving your reviews of nice sail boats. You clearly like nice timepieces eh?

[@chickenchuggets6395]

I’m wondering because you’re getting into more sailing yachts (I hope) if you could possible get you’re hands on a Jeanneau sun loft 47? 6 cabin?? That would be awesome!

[@jconwheels]

Very nice Nick, there's never a dull moment, when it comes to Aquaholic videos, I am absolutely impressed, you make these videos, so much fun, To watch, full of laughter, and silly mistakes, that you sometimes make, along the way, which, happens hahaha! I do, however, want to point out something, about that particular boat (sailing yacht) just had a thought, what if you take it out to sea, one day, on a stormy day, and there's lightning, and that really tall mast, at the front of the boat, gets struck, just something that has struck me, just now (no pun intended) 😂 it's going to make for a Really bad day, for the owner, or owners, plural 😱⚡

[@barryrudge1576]

As always your research in every boat you view is impeccable and it shows because there are no "Errr' s" between each sentence. It is nicely laid out but for a boat costing £700,000 I would expect better quality interior fittings. Everything reminds me of flat pack cheap quality plastic veneered chipboard furniture like you would expect in a £40K caravan.

[@elkofcanada5003]

Absolutely beautiful boat.

[@avp892]

Beautiful... wow wow wow

[@maxmcgraw3571]

Although I absolutely love the layout, I don't particularly care for the design (grain, color sceme, flooring). Sailboats are definitely not my thing, but Nick did the absolutely best tour that anybody could possibly do.. As usual. Aquaholic is, and always will be, the best of the best.
