Buying a New Boat from overseas, Targa 46 from Finland to Hong Kong

[@zwerker]

Nice video. I live in Vaasa, about 14 km from the Targa factory. Remember seeing a Targa moored on the river in Travemünde when I was on vacation there a couple of yars ago. Also know that the London police use Targas, and they are also used for sightseeing in Greenland.

[@jeffjones4071]

Very cool video!!! Targa 46 is a beautiful boat.

[@dingbatbell01]

That is a beautiful boat. If I ever get the money to afford one it’s on the list.

[@lindvallpaul9861]

buy the Sunmar or sunmar 8500. they are better and has a keel and made is same place pohjanmaa. they can go in all wather and rough sea.

That boat is absolutely gorgeous, great video! I've been looking in getting a smaller Targa (23.1 or 25.1) - Although Targa boats are very expensive, they hold their value like nothing else and are soooooo seaworthy. And I agree, it is not a beginners boat, it is for seasoned veterans who know what to look in a boat.

[@shenoyglobal]

how about Sargo? i heard they are equally good and little bit more modern looking from inside

[@FinnishPanther]

@@shenoyglobal Sargo and Nord Star build similar boats, but the interior build quality of Targa is just superior. I like all three, but would spend a bit extra for a Targa.

[@shenoyglobal]

@@FinnishPanther I am sure you have done enough comparision.. i was told nord star is definetly spot 3.. however i have seen mixed reviews between Targa and Sargo taking the top spot.. might be personal preferences.. however can you let me know what interior fit and finish you felt better in Targa compared to Sargo

[@FinnishPanther]

@@shenoyglobal The woodworking on Targas are AMAZING, and it is not even close when you compare it to any other boat, and when you open up the panels and take a look how the boats are built, you'll then see where the money went. I'm a little over 40 now and have spent most of my life around boats. My father was the captain of one of the largest ships in the Nordics and the only brand that always got the attention of professional seafarers was Targa. Whenever the topic of dream boats was discussed among the officers, the unanimous vote was to get a Targa. Don't get me wrong, Sargos and Nord Stars are really nice boats too, but Targas are built like small ships. I've looked at Targa class boats for about 10 years now and I'm going with the original. The only downside of Targas compared to the competition is that the shower facilities suck with the exception of the 46 (aft shower is nice). Hope this helps :-)

[@shenoyglobal]

@@FinnishPanther nice!!!! yes shower is also the reason why i felt like leaning to Sargo. especially th 37 doesn't have a guest head. Sargo managed to put a day head at the aft... i think for a 37 there should atleast 2 full head. one for owner and one for guest/day.. i have seen few boats have water drain at the steps leading to owner cabin and guest cabin.. i did not see on Targa nor Sargo.. i think that is also a good one for targa to put on their boats as these boats are SUV of the seas!

[@shenoyglobal]

good choice!!!! good boat!!!! SUV of the Sea!!! nice video!

[@OdiniStill]

Curious to find out what shipping the boat to Asia costed ...

[@PalisRudis]

Lovely boat, would love to see more of it in Asia. But that music was loud and not enjoyable.

[@Stavoren]

i dont know about the comment "this shouldnt be your 1st boat or something like that" .. this targa has IPS volvos... even my 77 year old grandmother can drive an IPS boat (which she has...)... IPS with proper electronics and gear dont require to much "technical" knowledge... you can even set the boat to "hover" in place w/o anchors in the right conditions with a push of a few buttons... so really not a very "technical" or hard boat to use... its joystick controlled for tight maneuvers, if anything else... your 1st boat SHOULD be IPS equipped...lol

[@studebaker4217]

I thought it was too good to be true - no crappy and unecessary music, then it started.

[@eemeli6706]

I want to get a boat like this propably a targa when im an adult

[@MrMislav]

This is full season boat, for all time of year!

[@lindvallpaul9861]

the sunmar is better. and made in same place. it has the keel and can go in all wather

[@simonassouline45]

Masterpiece in the Water!

[@lindvallpaul9861]

it is. but there is a better one that the same pohjanmaa did make. and its the Sunmar. it has a keel and can go in all wather and rough sea

[@keithf.d8345]

Dream boat for me..

[@lindvallpaul9861]

buy the better one that they did make. the sunmar 8500 it has the keel and will go better in rough sea

[@dingbatbell01]

I require a boat that does not take in water. That's always a good thing... in a boat.

[@adidas7525]

Amazing boat

[@alcylon]

Turn down the music.

[@linhsien-chia6657]

Which Asian country makes better yachts? South Korea? Taiwan? - Prestige Thailand? China? - Aquila Australia? - Riviera

[@lindvallpaul9861]
