I really don't know what to think about this one. So many things I like and ond the other hand as many ones I dislike. But overall super interesting to see such a completly new and different approach to a yacht design! And great video as always (even without Miele appliences)!

[@mothdoc]

I know where you are coming from. Two things for me are the fly bridge doesn't have a bar, Jacuzzi and sun pads and the master cabin was very dark ~ great fro sleeping but not for chilling or doing a bit of work.

[@kokomo9764]

Same here. I don't know what to think. The galley was to small. I didn't go wow one time. Different layout but not special.

[@darthkek1953]

@@kokomo9764 There is an option where the galley is down, making it larger and out of the way, but you lose one of the twin cabins. What it's REALLY missing is a Kenyon BBQ grill.

[@jasonmichaels8204]

Yeah it was the crew cabins for me, they literally have no privacy at all.

[@Ie_Shima]

The galley is smaller than a closet bathroom. This a 79ft boat, but nearly all of that space is dedicated to what, five or six different seating areas? What they should do is blow out the fore wall of the galley where the stove/fridge/freezer is and extend it about five or six feet further into that sitting room, and throw in an island counter. Also, add some sliding doors or windows to the dining area so it can be enclosed on a bad weather day. Finally, that crew cabin isn't a cabin, it's just a bunkbed shoved down a flight of stairs. This doesn't look or feel like a yacht, it's a floating mcmansion.

Great video. I saw this boat in another users video but the music they used sucked so bad I didn't watch past them walking on board. Your narration makes a huge difference and the videos much more watchable.

[@Matt7895]

Didn't really look like a boater's boat, but more like a floating flat. I thought it looked rather dull and nothing special to be honest.

[@andreamchutchon4761]

The galley seems so small to cater for 8 people and 2 crew....... I found the layout a bit confusing. BUT I do like a central helm. Shame about the engine for me it's usually the best part of your videos. Thanks for the tour and your enthusiasm.

[@colepdx187]

I was disappointed about the engine room as well. Always my favorite part.

[@idanceforpennies281]

I like the engine room the best too. A boat is a giant machine and it's nothing without engines, generators and other systems.

[@breakingtoast2255]

You'd be surprised how much noodles one can make with just one normal kitchen stove. And quickly too, if you pick the 3 minute ones!

[@rykehuss3435]

I wouldnt wanna cook there even if it was just for 1 person.

[@captainaj4727]

Great tour as usual, Nick. I think it's a great "mini-super-yacht" creating expectations. Where I think it falls short is in two areas. 1) Galley - not big enough for this caliber of boat for either owner-operator, dockside catering or a chef. 2) Crew - The boat lends a feel for some extended cruising and the crew is good for a captain/spouse at best. I also think that a happy crew is essential. A wet head? That idea should be banned.

[@joseantoniolago5857]

Maybe because I do all the cooking in my house, really hated that galley, too dark and claustrophobic for my taste, but really like the rest of that boat.

[@arcadiayachts5060]

[@jackmorgan1677]

I don't like the light effects in the lounge, caused by the roof solar panels. Those shimmering lights would go on your brain eventually...

[@120Livi]

Dining outside isn't going to be ideal when it's not summer and it's a bit cooler and windier in the evening. Crew cabin also doesn't have a door. I like some of the ideas but I think it's too compromised overall

[@darthkek1953]

There is an option for the dining area to be enclosed. The crew cabin does have a door, but it was open. It's on the left.

[@gsav1320]

The layout isn’t my cup of tea but the color scheme is soooo cool

[@The_Real_Zaineman]

I read the comments and I don't think I'm alone when I say, I did as well notice you being followed. It made me think of a store and they thought you were going to shoplift something so they were keeping an eye on you. Am I alone with this observation ?

[@grondhero]

He did mention that they asked him not to film the engine room, so that _might_ have a _little_ to do with it. But, my guesses overall: 1) They're new to boat shows and aren't familiar with Nick/Aquaholic. 2) There were other people touring the boat at the time and the -stalker- gentleman following was acting as a buffer between the two groups. 3) When they say "No engine room" they mean "No engine room!" XD

[@Jodokus_Rendentanz]

No, that guy is clearly observing Nick. But that is something you often see in some videos. And if you going on board on a yacht yourself you were watched too very often. Its not nice and do not make you feel good but they just do. I guess sometimes they holding them self ready to answer questions. But mostly they take care you do not steal stuff, or using the toilet/shower or going for a nap inside the owner cabin.

[@hatchetman29]

Every one of the staff on that boat in that day should be sacked immediately!!;

[@garethchild]

Quite an unusual boat there, Nick. Definitely not one for high speed blasts down to the Balearics for all night clubbing; more suited for a lazy cruise across the Ligurian Sea in search of the perfect anchor. Can’t argue with that range, either.

[@guerrillaentrepreneur5999]

Product placement?!? No Aquaholic logos, or Burnham coat-of-arms subtly represented and adorning pillows, dinnerware, towels, linens, back rest of the Captain's chair, polo shirts, socks, bedding and so on? I am appalled at your lack of hubris, and over-the-top self-promotion that is unacceptable, at-the-very-least you should have bottles of your Aquaholic labeled beer/wine bottles strategically placed in the galley and fridge. Mr. Burnham you are professionally slipping just remember Gordon Gekkos' "Greed is good"speech and never look back.................... Lol, just enjoy your vids keep up the good work!

[@adamski5977]

I'm not loving this I just feel the design is a little bit it off for some reason.

[@lambodriver6983]

Very interesting layout although I can't say the exterior design grabs me. Sometimes these yacht designers want to be so different that they lose some practicality such as only having and external dining area. Despite it being under cover, would you really like to dine out there at night when the wind gets up and is pelting rain? Just saying! Maybe I am too practical. LOVE the rear lounge area.

[@flacjacket]

I agree, the dining area should be enclosed, the upper deck area could be dual purposed into a dining area as well to retain al fresco dining while maintaining the practicality of having indoor dining.

[@bigbegad]

It thought the same, but you can have the dining area enclosed according to the Arcadia website layout options.

[@tecwzrd]

Fine if the Yacht offers indoor & outdoor dinning, but as you said I'd hate to only have an outdoor dinning option for when it's really hot or cold or in port having to deal with bugs! Why is the crew quarters completely open to the main salon also? No privacy or able to reduce noise, I'd hate to work on this boat as crew.

[@michaellampros5648]

Interesting lay out - a lot of these yachts/tours become repetitive but this has some new thinking/layout, but I think they need to spend some more time on the crew quarters, not much privacy - did I miss a door for them? Did I miss a washer/dryer?

[@Schm1tty]

I was wondering about the door too, and I think I found it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nH-umpesZseGY5I Pause right at the start of this and I THINK you can see what looks like the track for a sliding cover that goes over and in front of the steps. I could be wrong, but I think that's it. Also, here (kzbin.info/www/bejne/nH-umpesZseGY5I) you can see what looks like a groove that the sliding door will set close into. It's still just a guess on my part, though.

The outside of the boat was... Erh... "That's a Norwegian Sjark with makeup"... But her insides where nice and smart layout... I did not like the helm, neither the seats or the wheel, but the rest of the boat I did like. :) I've said it before, and saying it again... I truly like how you navigate through the boat even with other guest on board, and show them privacy. (Also, I do like how many of them try to duck away when they see you coming) :)

[@chuckfarlie6133]

[@toddhercules1885]

I'm not a fan of the outdoor dining. Unless there's something in place for windy/rainy weather. Aside from that the cabins look awesome, and the back deck is great. Well done video as always.

[@BhaaskarDesai]

I really believe 99% of the crew and caretakers of yachts at a show or otherwise are pretty nice and decent when it comes to displaying/showing it around. I really did not like that guy following Nick around suspiciously as if Nick was going to cause any troubles. His attitude was rude and clearly visible when he was in the master cabin and Nick had to cut the filming and abruptly return to the main deck. When you are at a boat show, people will and most likely, be interested to see everything that is on offer. Great KZbinrs like Nick are people who can advertise a yacht not even the manufacturers would be able to cover and show around so fantastically. Just for this reason alone, I will never be in a positive frame of mind when, and IF ever, I look at Arcadia Yachts. Nonetheless, thank you for the tour Nick~! :) Edit : @ArcadiaYachts : My shower is bigger than your kitchen space.

Quite an interesting yacht. Feels like somebody tried to make a house and fit it into a yachts shell. The design as in colors, furniture, etc is in my opinion quite frankly the best design i've ever seen without the slightest doubt. The design as in layout-wise is rather questionable but on the other hand it seems like we are used to THE standard boat so much that anything different seems out of place without an actual reason.

[@ChadTownsend]

Rykehuss that did cross my mind. But forgot to mention. If there were a larger fridge and storage for longer trips it would be a bonus. Good call. in an explorer style ship I’d even want a big office. I work from home. I’d sacrifice more lounge space for that

[@rykehuss3435]

An explorer type full displacement boat, you would be better off looking at Nordhavn or Bering yachts. Not these floating lounge bars lol. For example, the Bering 80 has a massive office behind the helmstation beringyachts.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/Bering-80-Library.jpg Theyre also built for actual passage making, in any weather. And here's Bering 80 galley, for comparison to the Sherpa. beringyachts.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/Bering-80-Galley1.jpg Dont think I have to say anything about that lol, the pictures speak for themselves

[@gmcjetpilot]

It's modern open design and decor is definitely for warm weather inner coastal yachting... and a party. I would question the solar panels will handle most of the electrical power for boat. Maybe with boat powered down it will charge batteries.

[@SunnyWu]

I think they should have some sort of shade for the dining area in case you happen to be in a windy spot.

[@ClickyB]

Great job Nick (particularly considering how busy it was), and an interesting craft to be sure, 'though not to my taste I'm afraid. Excessive outdoor space: Great for deck parties, not so much for cruising anywhere beyond 23.5° (N or S)! Insufficient indoor (daytime) space: Galley far too small for such a large boat, but the master cabin is very nice and I do like the addition of solar power. All in all it seems overly-expensive ('style over substance' unless the 'engine-room secret' is worth at least €1,500,000... Just my personal opinion)!

[@stanislavczebinski994]

I watched the other Arcadia video first - but I like the interiour color scheme on this boat a lot more. It has a very relaxed feel to it. That's what I like - that's what I want. On the other one, all surfaces have those irregular patterns to them - and the carpet always looks kinda dirty. Not my cup of tea....

[@stevesmith866]

The galley???? Who cares. The owner will never ever step foot in it. The chef will work his her magic in there no problem. Omg so beatiful. The space everywhere is unreal..... . Damn , I need this boat. Great job showing it as usual....see the engine room? Don't need to. Of course it's awesome. Crew quarters not up to snuff? Lololol. Any crew would kill to get on this , they don't need a god damn door

[@brucemcnair8887]

Very pretty, but not hugely functional. Mini- galley is inadequate. Crews’ quarters too close for comfort, no door, no privacy and access from helm is inconveniently located. Very fine upper lounge arrangement but the dining area won’t work except in idyllic weather. Other than that, it’s a beaut!!👍🏻

[@squirrelracingteam9814]

Interesting design overall and some great features. But what about bad weather, dining in freezing rain outside? Galley is rather small, considering 8-10 people on board. All in all, it means it is a weekender and not a long distance cruiser for a 2-3 week holiday. Or alternatively, you enjoy stocking up on consumables every second day.

[@horsetowater]

Great video as always but as for the boat... personally I didn’t like it! It looks ugly, the inside finishes don’t look all that & the layout is awful (there was even no door to the rather bland crew cabin?). I’ve frankly seen MUCH nicer boats for half or even a third of the cost of this one.

The creeper following was a bit of a turn off. Interesting layout, but for the price, I think there are much better options for approx the same size boat. Galeon 680 Fly and Azimut S8 come to mind for me. However, I realize those examples are not extra wide beam though

[@Cosmic-Greninja]

really interesting yacht for sure... although I have a few dislikes... one being the galley, omg that galley seems smaller on this 80ft boat compared to other 30ft yacht videos i have seen, yes i said 30ft.. the other dislike was the glossy affect of everything..., however i like practically everything else about this yacht, especially how ALL the cabins have only one stair case. Question, is it fully electric?

[@Viewsonic61]

Sometimes being different is refreshing but I’m afraid for me I found the flow of the boat a tad confusing and parts of the lower decks seemed to lack natural light. Styling is a bit OTT for me but will suit certain tastes. Not sure about the look of the helm being further forward although it does allow more for greater use of space within the boat. . Give me a fly bridge any day.

Looking from the outside it is not exactly a sleek beauty...but.....The internal layout is truly unique. So different from all the other yacht makers. Not sure how I feel about this one. Its different thats for sure.

[@bilyd333]

Think I would have to pass...being dosed by the radars at my head is not my cup of tea. Thinking the designers were looking to do something different so much that giving cancer to the occupants skipped their gaze

[@petergibbs]

Not really a boat for the Med is it. It rains in the med some days and this one is for where you have guaranteed hot sun EVERY DAY since the dining room is outside with no apparent way of closing it off. Sometimes I think designers can be just a bit too clever for their own good.

[@michaelfedorsha8147]

WOW that boat is AMAZING!!!!! I'm not a fan of the exterior shake of the boat, but that interior is lights out sexy!!

[@mrblue193]

Some very interesting design features, but not for me. Galley is way too small, and I couldn't see an indoor dining area. Seems like it's design is more about effect than function. I was hoping for an interesting take on the trawler design but this is not it. I don't actually see a point to it. It's the Gemma Collins of yachts.

Goodness Nick...yet another Italian floating condominium and another Italian exercise in design! So good of you to remind us these are actually boats but we are so far from a proper craft.

[@maxmustermann2931]

What I think is most „confusing“ is that the layout itself seems as if it almost completely designed for entertainment - eg partys in the evening or a weekend out on the sea …given that fact that the open area is really big = many guests can fit there I think the galley and the crew area are way too small to cater for 6 + people without creating a hectic atmosphere Idk just my thoughts - maybe it still works in the real world after all Anyways…great video as always !!

Overall, the design is amazing...the best part is the helm; finally - someone put the throttles next to the helm seat so you could sit and control them rather than having to get up and do it. All that said, despite the finish and some of the design elements, I really don't like the fact that so much is out in the open. This is really a boat for a niche climate and if it isn't warm and good weather, you've lost a lot of the deck space that you'd otherwise have in a conventional design. If they modified it to have sliding glass panels that would enclose it, that would be good. Also, the galley seems like an afterthought.

[@glenr7393]

What a tiny galley, more fitting for 4 maximum. It really is a galley for those who don't like to eat/cook on-board!!

[@liamdoyle9559]

It’s very nice but I thought the galley was a bit small. The crew area is also tiny. I didn’t notice a separate cabin for the captain, then again I guess there is only so much you can do with 80’.

[@marshallhughes4514]

Nice. But a £5 million yacht and a tiny crew cabin with a wet shower? They couldn't spring for a little more?

[@davidfmelbourne3473]

It is a bit different. My only concern would be the outdoor dining area. If there's weather, there is little protection and not much in the way of an alternative. Also, because it's enclosed, the galley does look a little small or claustrophobic. I really do like the solar panels. We need more of this rather than running generators all the time. But it is nice to see people trying something very different. I'm sure it will find its market.

[@jonroberts5629]

No, the galley is a shoe box and looks as though it was designed last as an after thought.. Did not notice a door to the forward cabins and would not walk along those side deck passages in rough weather, everything was too shiny with nothing to hold onto.. would not be surprised if there were no engines. The design brief was - park it up and party and use outside caterers... But I must say, you are the best at these profiles... no music and to the point, well done.

[@davidduckworth963]

Not sure if the crew bunks are fully open or not - didn’t seem to be a door or hatch closing that off. A whole roof of solar - maintenance nightmare?

[@tal0ndarktalon637]

Amazing colours and finishes. Looks very seaworthy. Lower power with more range would be my preference, as always, but I have to say, I do like this one. Not sure about that outdoor dining table. Not great at high latitudes, but then this isn’t really an explorer vessel methinks. Nice little ship. As always a great, great tour!

[@nabilbasta2061]

Amazing Genius Design Piece Of Art Thank You Nick For Wonderful Tour .

[@kevinw7044]

Very nice. It’s good to see something a little bit “different”.

[@reighbh13]

who was the KGB officer following you around assuming you would pinch the cutlery :)

[@iarykiansel]

I do like the boat a lot, but because I came from a island on the caribbean and this boat has a lot of open spaces, what about heavy raining. How do you protect the furnitures, which is outside, from the rain and some time heavy winds?

[@TheKarivirtanen]

Wow!😀👍 Thank you!! ..but I did not see barbecue/wet bar anywhere..?
