I used to be the Captain of this boat when it was Scott Free. Very cheap owner!!! I flew to St. Lucia to pick up this boat and deliver it back to Lauderdale. Met the owner there for the first time. Was told the Yacht was in good working order. Was told not to cruise above clutch in order to save on fuel!!! Told you he was cheap. Long story short it was the delivery from hell. We experienced, Fire ,Flood, and Pirates!! After passing San Juan at about 2:00 am we had an alarm. Went to the engine to check it out to find that the engine batteries were losing charge. One engine died then the other. Dead ship in the middle of the ocean. We towed a 24 ft tender. Rigged it up for towing, towed the yacht for 12 hours until we reached Great Igangua in the Bahamas! Took another 8 to 10 hours to figure out all our problems and headed to Lauderdale. Trip from Hell ! Glad to see that someone has put a lot of money into the old girl!

What an astounding upgrade, beautiful vessel. What does surprise me at times is the crew access on many boats always seems to be quite near the sea, ie low down on the swim platform or outside near sea. In some sea conditions it would be a challenge getting in without being soaked. I am aware there are other accesses but also in the access is the engine room, hope the door is well sealed 😁

Absolutely amazing. I would of been interested in seeing her before the refit. Such open space on board her. You wouldn't feel on top of each other. I've always said if I had the money to be able to afford one of these. I wouldn't keep the crew so separated. I would make them feel as much as part of the boat as I am. They wouldn't need to hide away. Going back to this Yacht the amount of space you have when losing those side decks is incredible. Thank you so much for sharing her with us Nick

Man that's a beautiful boat, looking at that engine room tells you the previous owner REALLY LOVED that vessel. The layout with the huge kitchen is how I'd want it done, there is enough room for everybody to congregate in there while you cook/entertain. That being said, since there is such a huge dining area in the kitchen I'd take out the formal dining room table. Move the bar over to where that is, make it like a 3 sided round/curved wrap around affair. 4 or 6 people could sit on the bar stools, they'd face each other to where it would be like sitting at a round table. Could have great conversations there, hell even eat a meal there with your buds.

More yachts 100+ feet should implement the partial side decks IMO. It opens both the saloon so much. This is a fantastic yacht layout and one of my favorites with the country kitchen and fold out bathing platform. 11:28 the light being out in the chandler is triggering my OCD :) Woodwork and furnishings throughout are very classy. 20:14 thank you for closing the engine room door, I've always been curious how loud the crew quarters are with it closed, would love to see you do it on other tours (assuming generators and/or engines are running). Regarding the bell, the maritime tradition is that even if a ship's name is changed, the original, unchanged bell should remain with the ship.

To buy this boat used, refurbish the entire vessel - including re-powering - then add a profit and still sell it for $5 million is amazing. Except for new engines, electronics, upholstery and paint this boat must have been in excellent condition. And it's a TWENTY THREE year old yacht that's One Hundred Twenty Feet Long. This spells bargain. Ultimate live aboard. Summer home. B and B. Couples' long weekend charters. Several family time share. Lot's of potential. Thanks for the fun tour.

Sometimes, I prefer the look and design of older boats and the added character they sometimes have. The only downside for me are the small lower deck windows that I assume cannot be enlarged without compromising the structure. I guess it can be said that the portholes are part of the "character". This yacht has been beautifully designed with large spaces and it's exterior looks current. As usual, Nick does an EXCELLENT job of showing us yet another great boat.

Nice presentation on a refurbished 23 year old yacht. I was surprised to learn that this was in Fort Lauderdale, as it is obviously not a part of a boat show. That said, I wonder if you ever considered holding a seminar for fans on various related topics when you travel to cover a boat show. Your knowledge of boating, and particularly overnight boats (as opposed to just day boats), plus what you've seen as the evolution of yachts over the years would be quite interesting. Just a thought.

Hi Nick... you had a haircut? 😃 I'd actually have forgiven you if you'd missed the Wave™ this time, as the boat is so lovely it'd be understandably easy to forget... but you still remembered and I am suitably impressed! This is absolutely gorgeous though, eh? Very well proportioned and great for comfort. The layout is one I especially like here, and I particularly love having a bath in the heads and a door up from the back of the pilot house to the flybridge. The general styling does look somewhat dated, but at the same time retains quite a nice period feel - I'd definitely be happy with that. Crew quarters look alright, though I feel they ought to have their own private mess or lounging area somewhere... and it looks like they have a dog too!! I always like your videos, but I really did enjoy this particular tour - Thanks very much!!

I decided not to be though. My inner FloridaMan coming out you know. Pinellas County through and through and all that. Lol. Anyways. It is a nice boat though. Missing some stuff like you said.

It's no Gulf Craft Majesty 175 but what a great chunk of yacht for the money and looking really great for its age. If I was buying a yacht for normal use as in something you use a couple of times a year and maybe charter out in-between then I tend to leen towards European makers style yachts ,but these older American style yachts make great what I call full-time live abroad type yachts . The country kitchen something that I'm not usually keen on for normal use but for full-time living they are great 👌🖖

Gorgeous yacht Nick….. I have to say I thought it a little short on cabin numbers for such a large vessel….. although the separated forward cabin would have been my personal choice…. The view from the upper helm was magnificent. However, I thought the pilot house would be an effort to helm from when manoeuvring, without assistance….. I realise much has been spent and clearly well spent as it hides the age very well…….. and that engine space 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Ironic that when you were coming out of the engine room with the vent fans running hard, I was thinking “I wonder if those watertight doors kill all the sound for crew sleeping so close…….?” You read my mind…….🎉🥳🇬🇧
