[@bobuncle8704]

As much as I do like the modern boats, I think my heart really belongs to classics like this. Nice lines, and dark wood interiors. Thanks Nick.

[@Wooooosaaaaaa]

Ya this boat isn't for someone trying to show off

[@dtutssel]

Every single surface is exactly the same. It's drab and boring.

[@johnsprague5889]

This boat is clunky and dark

[@brettallan7417]

I really don't like all the heavy dark wood.

[@revyu6754]

Just a dream to have something as awesome as this.

[@Dumptheclutchevo]

'muted furniture' - shows bright red chairs... Love it Nick, Happy Holidays sir!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@catherinesarah5831]

Thank you so much Nick. Such a beautiful vessel as you’d expect from Bennetti. They exude such classic class. Great to see the “wave”, nothing like a hallmark. May I take this opportunity to thank you for your amazing work throughout the year. I look forward to your attention to detail & artisan flair makes viewing such a joy. May both yourself, the Commodoress ( the inimitable Marianne) & family have a Blessed Christmas full of joy & abundance. 🙏

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@petergibbs]

My all time favourite Superyacht, the Benetti 120 for as long as I can remember. Thanks for showing her. Happy Christmas Nick & family.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@GoodkatNW]

Beautiful. I did have a chuckle at "muted furniture" as you show blue and red velour chairs

[@josh_bfc_2769]

What a terrific yacht. Love the wooden panelling in contrast to the cream carpets and furniture. Looks very classy compared with modern yachts of today. Great video as ever. Happy holidays to you and your family 👍

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Merry Christmas! 🎅🏼

[@johncutler285]

For the price, and if you are in the market for a super yacht, what a fantastic purchase! Lottery Gods smile on me

[@MrPeteJMc]

That is a beautiful yacht Nick. Imagine spending Christmas on it. Great tour, thanks.

[@NoName-zb1gm]

Beautiful boat. It feels bigger because it has 3 decks. One of the nicest boats you've toured for us.

[@ianyoung9837]

An older boat but in tremendous condition. I did enjoy the nostalgia of a Windows XP screen saver! Thanks Nick for a great tour of a lovely boat.

[@kokomo9764]

It is not in tremendous condition at all. The engineering spaces were a mess, and the woodwork had many nicks and scratches. It was in average condition and need of an interior refit. Given the condition of the engine room and technical areas, I would take a very close look at maintenance records. But Nick, as always, did a great tour.

[@marcoperoni4735]

The unique selling point of this is that the engineering room had a computer running Windows XP, I loved that operating system. Merry Christmas to you and yours Nick. Looking forward to the Christmas playlist I saw earlier. 🎉👍

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@AlphaGatorDCS]

I am in the US, and it makes my day when I get to start my daily KZbin binge with Aquaholic

[@ironichumorist]

These Benettis are so classy. Well done.

[@ArgoVII0]

Elegant tour, as always, Nick. Cheers, mate!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it! 🙂

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@1shelbygt07]

Drop dead gorgeous. I know that the modern minimalistic look is in today, but give me this splendor any day. If I wasn’t an old man I’d jump on this great value.

[@thenobleduke1758]

Your just amazing Nick, I enjoy all of your videos. And a merry Christmas to you. 🎄

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Thank you! Merry Christmas! 🎅🏼

[@nigelgibson2242]

Hi Nick. Love your videos. Happy holidays from Nigel in Turkey!@@AQUAHOLIC

[@bryanthelaststand.7223]

My favorite guy to do boat reviews.

[@zerog5041]

What a beautiful timber to use in that vessel, one I've never seen before, the saloon is bigger than my flat!

[@bigdogoutdoors4985]

I think this is the perfect yacht! Merry Christmas!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@ItisFicus24]

Wonderful year of escape videos. Many thanks, Nick.

[@fidel681]

Love the stylish deep woodwork and contrasting furniture...Happy Xmas Nick and looking forward to your 2024 tours.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@monsterhog1118]

Love the owner cabin

[@donnataylor9294]

Just a gorgeous yacht. Thank you another great tour.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@Elaine-id5eh]

So glad to see some better crew quarters than on some boats in the past,

[@Leo-Crespi]

Beautiful boat, I really liked this one.

[@jaimiemadden590]

Nice boat, classic style in every sense of the word. Thank you for the tour Nick Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas and looking forward to next year with Aquaholic

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@Philipk65]

Really nice boat. I do like the gloss wood finishes and details. I know it is dated but to me there is something timeless and elegant with the gloss wood.

[@jimmyquinn9639]

Beautiful yacht and a excellent video Nick and merry Christmas 🛥🚤⛵️🎉🎉🎉🎉🎊🎊🎊🎊🤶🎅👍👍👏👏⭐️⭐️

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@AaronTheHumanist]

Superb. Newer yachts missing a trick not having forward windows on the master cabin. Love it.

[@aidenquinn8610]

that sky lounge is just amazing !!! i mean wow

[@theresamcpherson7352]

A classic beauty! Thank you Nick, and Merry Christmas!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@ThoughtfulWander]

Nice engine room! Nice bridge as well! 👍👍

[@marchport]

Beautiful! I love the woodwork!

[@maryholder3795]

Any minute now Sophie Loren will guide out for a glass of 🥂 champagne. I find the wood abit dark but the cream carpets and ceilings lift it. But in 2009 that was the style. But having said that the woodwork is amazing beautiful carved. Like the wine cellar in the guest bedroom communal hall 😊. She a lovely Lady of the Sea classy but comfortable. Great tour Nick.

[@TheFlashSpeedforce]

Wow!! I'm amazed at the presence this vessel exudes and the quality materials of choice and the elegance and luxurious arrangement of spaces in it. Even the crew quarters scream luxury! Most impressive is that it is already a 15 years old ship, yet it looks pretty much sparkling new. Although some of that can be chalked down to above-standard maintenance, you need to have fine materials and finishes for starters in order to keep them looking this good. BENETTI doesn't disappoints, I've learned: with this yacht builder you will get your money's worth in the performance package, in unusually luxurious appointments and finishes, or in attention gathering designs and/or amenities, and sometimes a combination of all the above. That's, IMHO, is the name of the game in the yacht industry: get the customer's perception that he/she is getting back his/her investment value. Many other builders should look at a page or two from BENETTI's book. Thank you so much for covering this remarkable, truly beautiful yacht in your unique style, and kudos to its current broker for its generosity in allowing this to happen.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it 🙂

[@Whatever_fu]

Another review from the best.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Much appreciated!

[@JGKingCrusher]

That was impressive. I always look for a bath tub in the owner's area, and then an engine room that rivals the Star Trek engine room 😎

[@TheRealWilliamm]

gosh, another master cabin for ages! just wow again Nick Merry Christmas to you wife!

[@dieynad]

Hello there. This is beautiful, and I have a preference for the upper deck area. Thank you for a lovely tour. 💐🌸🌺

[@michaelbellsmith5113]

beautiful, Merry Christmas Sir Nick

Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@seantwomey396]

A classic yacht from a classic creator. You are working nonstop over Christmas. Thank you but keep some time for yourself. Merry Christmas.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Merry Christmas! 🙂

[@rx7dude2006]

Reminds me a bit of the yacht used in the movie Overboard.

[@nadiamcslide3180]

Happy Christmas to you Nick, first time watching, great content. From USA

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Welcome aboard! 😃

[@andredegruchy-bott9140]

Awesome yacht and great tour as always. A happy Christmas mirror wave to you and the Aquaholic family.

[@scottgordon1781]

Super cool as always , thanks . What happens below decks intrigues me . So here , 7 crew , Capt = Engineer + chef , just 4 to keep a lot of folks sorted . Do not really see decent laundry areas , unless some are stored for use . and the kitchen while nice , is a bit small for all the guests and crew !

[@justitia257]

Merry Christmas Everyone

[@douglasthompson296]

Hi Nick, a big thumbs up from me 👍 for this modern style claasic yacht. On a personal note that red scarlet upholstery would have to go though but those 2 armchairs on the aft deck looked so comfortable they could stay! Cheers DougT

[@patriciab3739]

Excellent Vlog and tour as usual Nick ! Thanks for sharing....I am pretending to prepare things for tomorrow's Christmas dinner, instead..... I'm watching Aquaholic !!! 😎🤫😂 Merry Christmas Nick to you and the family and thank you for all of your amazing Vlogs/Tours 😎🌲

[@mohammednadeemanwar2213]

Wow absolute style. Love this boat. Thank you for the tour Nick 👍👍

[@AQUAHOLIC]

My pleasure!

[@mmsmits2868]

The guest spaces are meticulously maintained! It's only showing its age in the engine and crew spaces, but even then nothing out of the ordinary. Strangely enough, I didn't even mind the dark wood on this yacht. Excellent spaces, including for the crew. That is for the comprehensive tour, and Happy Holidays to you and yours!

It must be the devil in me but I'm longing for the day you pop open the day heads door and catch someone mid squeeze 😂😂😂 another great video Nick, thanks for all the content this year. Happy xmas and new year

[@DerAllwissende]

Merry x-mas :)

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Merry Christmas! 🎅🏼

[@clifbradley]

The first yacht I 3ver worked on and crossed the Atlantic on, was a Benetti 120. We had some rough areas and she handled it well. The owmer had wanted to come and we provisioned for him amd the family. That was 2 adult,children with their girlfriends amd then a younger child with a nanny. She was treated as family,and ate with them. We could😂let the foodmgo,to,waste so we ate very well that trip. Filet Mignon, caviar, lobster, king crab legs. There were some stuff I didn't eat, but the stuff we had was amazing. I had a meat lolipop formthe first time ever. I crave them to this day. And the smell of wood, leather, whiskey and cuban cigars. That defined that boat.

[@stevenmoser7233]

Excellent tour. Was wondering where the dumb waiter opened on upper decks. Merry Christmas.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Merry Christmas! 🎅🏼

[@Katy_Jones]

Suprised you didn't pick up on the mountings for taking mark bearings just aft of the wing stations, Nick. Proper little ship stuff.

[@onefrazzer]

That must of spent a long time on the drawing board to work out how to get that much in a 120

[@cascocatcommunity5382]

Thank you for sharing

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Thanks for watching!

[@davidlefeuvre8352]

Almost perfect, but why in the owners cabin is the bed not facing the windows, that would niggle me a little, could learn to live with it though.

[@tedthesailor172]

Lovely yacht. But I don't think I'd want my captain mixing with the crew like that. I'd want him to have accommodation more in keeping with his status on the vessel. Thanks for showing us round...

[@hoserfella]

what's the whiskey brand at the bar? I know i've seen it before but its driving me crazy...

[@jonjonmark]

@ 7:00 for being such a grand very beautiful VIP state room people love Netflix they love to watch TV but I noticed that the TV is so small but then I thought about how the screen is on this pocket camera dji osmo pocket 3 the screen swivels so when you’re not watching TV the screen is vertical but then when you’re watching it you just flip it around like on this pocket camera and you got a third more viewing screen for the same amount of footprint that your TV is mounted to so you don’t have to worry aboutanything you just lift the TV when you wanna see it.

[@rl7012]

At first glance it looks very top heavy. Where is its centre of gravity at? And the very top deck has so much kit on it making it even higher plus a jacuzzi. No doubt it is a stunning boat with a fab interior but that is no good if it topples over.

[@RJMCafe]

It does look pretty blocky. Would be interesting to see the side-on design drawing.

[@Toby_the_Glen]

What are the chances of a walkaround on Michelle Mone's yacht?😉

[@niknoks7638]

As always 👏👍

[@dallisb1047]

Merry Christmas Nick. Could you be St. Nick?

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@Richcap122]

Very beautiful, classic yacht one of my favorites, but however, seems like a noisy yacht with that air conditioning and all

[@simonevans8979]

Cream carpets and dark wood. How very Benetti! Nice one Nick. Question: About when did they start listing ships by length in meters, as opposed to feet? 36.6 metres is not as impressive as 120 FEET, even though they represent the same thing....

[@hylje]

There’s a point where understatement becomes a flex.

[@nocturn791]

When? When we went metric and abandoned imperial.

[@simonevans8979]

@@nocturn791 NO. that was why I asked the question? Because AFAIK WE haven't `abandoned imperial`, nor gone 100% metric, no matter what the philistines in the Rest of The World think. I see a change around 2000-ish but just wondered what others, with greater knowledge, think?

[@sokolisufaj2284]

Where is the kitchen?

[@RJMCafe]

I wonder if anyone sells outdoor stainless-steel exercise equipment?

[@robertmosher7418]

Ok. A week or two ago a subscriber commented that the ship you had just done a video on was not enough boat for the 22 million or some large number, you commented on his thread asking if he was a super yacht broker and I commented that A...it was a brand new yacht with no depreciation and B...that if you were to buy a boat, even a newly renovated from the bilges up, you could get a larger and nicely kitted out ship for less than half the cost. I came to that conclusion because I am an Aquaholic-aholic who actually listens to you when you record your videos. You are the one who said it was possible to get more boat for less if you are willing to buy a used boat that is 10 years or more old. This boat is a great example of a boat with comparable amenities and roughly the same size for less than half the price. To me, that would mean the 22 or 17 or whatever millions dollars it was for the boat in question is too much. Because IF I had 22 million pounds to spend on a ship I would the biggest one that money would allow. So, if I ever come into that kinda cash I'll be in touch with you and pay for your assistance in finding myself the best bang for the buck. And one more thing... Happy Christmas to my favorite content creator! May the Lord bless you and yours with Peace, Love and Joy this Christmas and throughout the upcoming year.

[@opa-dick]

Incredible what a superyacht... Although the interior is good old classic and looks fantastic it is not mine taste. But it is a fantastic super yacht.. I would like to stay a week or 2 on it... Many thanks Nick for the Tour

[@ThoughtfulWander]

Wow windows xp!? Better get that upgraded it is out of support from Microsoft..

[@AndyWicker]

Was that a dumb waiter when you walked into the galley?

[@sanderverweij1997]

60 knots,seems a bit to much

[@AQUAHOLIC]

It would be indeed. 16 knots however, would seem about right... 🙂

[@LennardStender]

Love the tour! But what a shame for a beautiful yacht like this that it has such ugly furniture, my goodness...

[@dianee7778]

I disagree. I think the stairs leading below in the middle of the floor plan is a tremendous and awkward waste of space. Also, I think the furniture in the salon is incredibly tacky. I love everything else.

[@littlearsehole75]

I'll have two, please. Great work as ever! Merry Christmas to you and Maryanne.
