Kadey-Krogen 44-Yacht Tour-This Trawler Has It All!

[@JeffVanDerford]

You must sell a bunch of boats - great delivery, attitude, knowledge! Bravo Zulu all around!

[@dougfaulkner6799]

Great tour of a fine example of a Kady Krogen. Built like a tank but with all the refinement one could ask for. Ive always loved them.

[@AquaCultured]

Thank you brother! Since my love for trawlers began, this make has always been a top pick for me!

[@jimreid67]

Great presentation. We own and live on a 48’ KK Whaleback. The KK’s is truly a solid boat, and the KK community is very welcoming and supportive.

[@AquaCultured]

Thank you so much Jim! Oh nice! I must say, the Whaleback has always been at the top of the list for me. I went on my first and only one at a Trawlerfest about 12 years ago and fell in love with it. I hope to get invited aboard one again in the future. Thanks so much for watching

I spent my teenage years on a whaleback down here in socal. Very clever boat.

[@stevennatschkesspacecoast]

Love Kadey Krogens!

[@jeffw5989]

I owned this boat years ago. Fantastic vessel, but it is a Krogen 44 NOT an AE. 44 AEs have numerous small changes from this model, including stairs instead of a ladder to the flybridge on the wide body, a quick way to visually ID them. Regardless, one of the best built, most practical cruisers (if there is such a thing?) ever built. Absolutely loved her.

[@AquaCultured]

Thanks very much for that clarification, Jeff! You are absolutely correct, it is certainly hard to beat this vessel in capability and practicality. Thanks so much for watching and contributing

[@terryandreasen5160]

Beautiful vessel. Previous owner did a very nice job.

[@jpmerrick8886]

Mint omg no expense sparred amazing boat so much in 44

[@AquaCultured]

No expense spared is a very true statement

[@timgreen4137]

Beautiful vessel! She's been well loved. No wonder the owner decided to keep her. 4400 miles on 850 gallons? I'm jealous. I have a 400 mile range with 200 gallons. On my 1967 GB 36.

[@AquaCultured]

This vessel has most definitely been loved and pampered! And that range is quite incredible. Thanks for watching Tim

[@mikefrench3800]

Gosh love this boat. Nice job showing it

[@AquaCultured]

Thank you so much Mike. Showing such a great boat makes me happy

[@BobEstler]

The owner has taken really good care of that boat. It also feels a LOT bigger than 44 feet.

[@AquaCultured]

Indeed on both fronts! Thanks for watching!

[@markstaniland7655]

Nice presentation. Thank you.

[@edsmith6943]

Great tour. Congrats on the sale of the Defever, the 44 is one of my favs. However there is no shortage of well kept Krogens (owners have $$ usually and they are made well)- Actually the Island Trader next door was impressive as they are often let go and frankly build quality was questionable. Good luck with your next boat- as we say "two best days for boat owners" and you get them close together- hahhahaa enjoy.

[@AquaCultured]

Thanks much Ed! That Island Trader you saw is hands down the best one I have seen. I will hopefully have a Yacht Tour edition of that vessel as well. The best days in my eyes is the day when you buy a boat and then the day when you buy the next boat.

[@krislynch7454]

Incredable❤❤❤

[@stefanvanrensburg6096]

I ❤ your presentation so much, I've subscribed. I wish all presentations could be like this. Great boat

[@AquaCultured]

Wow, thanks so much for the nice compliment! And welcome aboard!

[@JayDoc895]

Beautiful vessel! One question, does it have a get home drive or engine? Or something equivalent?

[@AquaCultured]

That is a very good question! This vessel does not have a get home drive or engine. There is of course reasoning to have and to not have one. Many folks will state that their get-home was useless because when you have a high quality single main, it is easier to access and maintain the engine, thus making it so reliable that the get-home engine or drive never get's used other than to test it and it just takes up unnecessary space and is something else that you have to maintain and service. But of course, it can be unsettling thinking about your one and only engine becoming disabled, rendering you dead in the water. I am sure the folks that had a get-home that got them home would be in the camp to tell you that they would not have a single engine boat without a get-home. Thank you for watching and contributing with a very good query.

[@davedavids9619]

What an amazing boat and in what a great condition. Looks like I have a lot of work ahead of me to bring our boat to that condition. What was the asking price for this one, just so that I have a reference ?

[@AquaCultured]

@@davedavids9619 it was around $850k

[@MrTonynyc57]

Nice boat

[@AquaCultured]

Completely agree. Thanks for watching!

[@MarkBarrack]

10:28 agree

[@AquaCultured]

Roger that!

[@mvintrigue-trawlerdiy1101]

Amazing vessel. One of my favorites and this one may be the best I have seen. The lithium/Victron install looks like possibly work of "The Yacht Riggers" in St Pete? I saw a spare class T zip tied to the holder and instructions and labels? If the owner did that himself ...kudos to him. Everything about the boat is great. Love these videos. But I will say I was HIGHLY disappointed by one aspect! I thought for sure you were going to announce this was YOUR new boat. 😪

[@AquaCultured]

This is definitely a special vessel! The lithium/victory install was done by the reputable Charlie Johnson, a very fastidious marine electrical engineer. Haha! Sorry to let you down! If only I had a few more hundred thousand dollars in the account. Thank you so much for your continued support, kind words, and contribution

[@mvintrigue-trawlerdiy1101]

@@AquaCultured Yes..I know of the world famous Charlie Johnson! Its some amazing work on that install for sure! Top notch! I hope the owner, who is no longer selling, gets to enjoy his boat and im sure he will be glad he held on to it. Its a gem.

[@wesleylowellrenzas665]

Is this boat for sale? If so how much?

[@gerrymccarthy9568]

Lovely ship! No wing engine! It’s like 0:30 range anxiety on an electric car.

[@MikeMerwarth]

Hi. Is there any chance the owner is having second thoughts about selling? I would love to talk to him (or you). Very interested. Thanks. - Mike

[@zekeharley]

I'm curious what your day job is that allows you to live this lifestyle.

[@jpmerrick8886]

[@NealDelettre]

Don't show her underway? Why knott?

[@GarySegler]

Is this for sale?

[@AquaCultured]

It was for a brief amount of time but was taken off the market.

[@samandtheresamills5689]

This boat is gorgeous! Loved the video thank you! We are new to Trawlers and looking to discover the best brand and length vs age and price that works for us. Can you tell me around what price range to expect for a vessel like this?

[@zedwpd]

request Nordhavn or Bering

[@AquaCultured]

[@chrisw.4318]

Single engine on a boat that size?

[@AquaCultured]

Oh yeah, there are much larger single engine vessels out there, it is quite common.

[@michaelsiqueira7250]

What is the price?

[@AquaCultured]

It was only briefly on the market, so it is not for sale at this time

It's a beautiful trawler. You are way over-selling it. Chill and let that magnificent vessel speak for itself.

[@AquaCultured]

Hard not to get excited about something you are passionate for. Thanks for watching!

[@robertkreamer7522]

Rather have an aluminum toe rail with holes as in a sailboat for utility teak toe rails are for boat shows . In fact a lot of appearance items on any boat are just for boat show sales . I ought to know I have owned two sailboat distributor companies. If you are a newbie always take an old salt dog like me you a show . Because I will steer you clear of feature shoals that would make life on board less pleasant 😎

[@AquaCultured]

Teak toe rails are for show/boatshows for sure! I love the way they look but I don’t love the upkeep. I can understand and appreciate the preference toward utilitarianism rather than looks to sell and show off. Thanks for watching

[@26N80W]

No link to a listing in the description. Why bother?

[@AquaCultured]

The boat was initially for sale and then the owner took it off the market, hence no link. I did mention this in the video

43,140 lb approximately 19,400 kg, or 19,5 tons... Definitely not a 1,134 kg which actually little bit over 1 ton.
