i got halfway through watching this before remembering i'm not in the market for a superyacht

[@SuperYachtCaptain]

Hahaha 👍

[@kokomo9764]

Never stopped me

[@user-hy7kq8gw2g]

Can I interest you in a jet maybe? 🎉

[@t.d.bowman9585]

He almost convinced you

[@givernyjade8350]

Had such a giggle at this 😂

[@gshenkle]

Yes please make the pros and cons of chartering!!

[@dustincole6587]

Yes please! Pros and cons on chartering from an owner's perspective.

[@t.d.bowman9585]

Almost there. Found the All-spark. Just need the Unobtainium. Stars align soon. Talk to you soon Captain Mortlock.

[@catherinesarah5831]

🦘🇦🇺 Thank you Tristan for yet again another fabulous video, full of fact & clarity. Yes please, pro & cons of charter, & one for steel/alum (what’s the difference) & grp if you have the time & energy. Thanks for the great work & effort you put into anything you do. 🙏

[@markthompson2079]

Of course we want to know about the pros and cons of chartering. I expect that will be a multi part series. Thank you for all the effort you put into your video.

[@SuperYachtCaptain]

Coming soon!

[@brettlopez6641]

Yes, I would like to know the pros and cons of chartering. Particularly if the boat stays primarily in the Caribbean. Say charter out if the Bahamas, St Barts or Antigua

[@markuswunsch]

Also ask yourself which regions you want to go to and then consider potential local limitations (harbour sizes!, draught, mast height, environmental certification requirements, etc.). It's not really fun if your yacht is that big that you can only dock in large marinas or even worse industrial ports / at cruise ship terminals. This said Vieux Port in St. Tropez for example has a max LOA of 50m and if your yacht is larger than that you'll be in fierce competition for being allowed to dock at Môle D'Estienne D'Orves (chances are it's going to be booked already when you make up your mind to go there). The Bahamas on the other hand won't be very enjoyable if your yacht isn't a shallow draft one.

[@Paul37Ontario]

I'm watching even thou I can't afford a single fender. lol Thinking how many cabins do I need. 🤔

[@gavinmarshall6438]

Oh it’s definitely for me!

[@colin.chaffers]

Nice job Tristan, pros and cons of charter would be, as would be choosing which flag state.

[@atoningunifex6067]

Charter first to find out, bit like producer michael, bought one then found out he had terrible sea sickness so sold it

[@davearmstrong2296]

Great to see you again, Tristan. It would be nice top see a video to discuss whether a steal or composite based super yacht is is better or not. A number of composite super yachts have caught fire recently, whereas steel ones don't normally. Obviously, steel ones are more expensive, etc.

[@SuperYachtCaptain]

Great suggestion!

[@ChrisJohnson-of8fh]

Working towards the net worth to make the decision. The annual crew salary and expenses make charter a lot more appealing if you are only 2-3 months aboard each year. A few weeks of charters of a nice 40m for say $1.5M all in including APA could easily be your salaries and fuel/insurance

[@thomasw5430]

Pros and cons yes!!

[@thebarbers2273]

@SuperYachtCapt. Refitting a yacht. Ove seen the yacht Trafalgar featured, by Aquaholic..that yacht appear to be dated and and visually need to be updated. So if a person bought it would you still suggest take it out for 1 season before Refitting it? 2 would you suggest the shipyard that originally built the yacht or a shipyard that specifically that customize the yacht near where you live. And how much to spend on customization if the new owner decides to sell the yacht. And how much could a new owner of an older yacht refit expected to loose in the process. Keep up the good work. Bravo Zulu!!

[@jamesmatthews291]

It's good that you offer that yacht management service, helping ensure certs etc are correct. I remember that video of you on AWOL with the pile of ring binders, making absolutely sure everything was squared away - looks a nightmare, I'd be lost instantly!

[@SuperYachtCaptain]

Wow, I'm very impressed that you remembered the video I did on ship certificates.

[@lgriestra]

A video with very good info. Thanks!

[@SuperYachtCaptain]

Glad it was helpful!

[@jchris9747us]

Hi Tristan. Miss the AWOL team greatly. Hypothetically, if I won the lottery and never owned a yacht and decided to buy the ultimate machine (the yacht) would you hire the captain first? I would think first. He/She should be able to guide you to a great boat and get the best out of it as long as the experience is there. Since (hypothetical me) I have never owned a yacht where should one turn to find a suitable one who has the tickets to command a 50 , 500 or 3000 ton vessel? Just curious what your thoughts are.

[@davedavids9619]

I think the biggest con against chartering is that if you ever charter a boat you run the risk of finding out you want more ! You don't want to leave after just one week, you want to remain on the water, on the boat. 😀

[@SuperYachtCaptain]

Hahaha, fair point ;)

[@williampiliguian9567]

Hi Tristan great to see you, I have been new to your channel I'm very impressed and it has been very informative keep up the great work, I would like to ask you I would like to know more about flags and or more so the flag of the boat registered of that country what are the differences, and Secound I know your focussing on your new venture but it would be nice to know what are your old crew members are doing now or maybe have a reunion episode or something, and finally would you consider one day purchasing a yacht and running the boat yourself, once again keep up the great work

[@alancostin3225]

Pros and Cons of Chartering Video. Thanks.

[@edreid9681]

Thank you, I will soon be in the position to buy a yacht, so far you an d your company are on the top of my list, my close friend will soon be in the market as well. Note we have never been on the water nor chartered a yacht. I've been doing the research for this for a year. Again thank you for your information, it's very helpful.

[@SuperYachtCaptain]

Great to hear!

[@Bubby869]

What types of things would be considered a “dark past?” Is that just mechanical or physical bang-ups?

[@TradeWindgng]

Great video love it and yes would love to watch a video talking about the pros & cons of chartering your own yacht. question please...do you do brokerage for yachts between 50-80 footers !? Thanks Keep them coming please

[@SuperYachtCaptain]

Great, will start putting to gather a pros & cons video. Yes, we do work with smaller vessels. Just send us an email and we’ll be happy to help.

[@wide-lo4d567]

Been a long time since I watched your vids? What happened to actually being a captain those vids were amazing

[@Malaki420]

So I've seen on KZbin and Robb Report magazine of the Super Rich buying Submarines turned into Superyachts on the inside some were 300+ feet long. Is this a reality or just n concept phase?

[@emberspirit7502]

I have a question. For example, if someone likes the design of the Koru yacht, can they go to OceanCo and ask them to build one exactly like the Koru? There is a problem with design copyright or monopoly ?

[@SuperYachtCaptain]

That’s a great question. You’ll need to find out who owns the rights to the design, it could be the design house, shipyard or more probably it belongs to Jeff.

[@fisherh9111]

I am in the market for a 500 gross ton explorer yacht. The only catch is I need to finance 150% of the full purchase price at a favorable interest rate. Is this a viable proposition?

[@SuperYachtCaptain]

Would have been viable pre 2008 😉

[@HAL_NINER_TRIPLE_ZERO]

Do you work exclusively with superyachts? What about yachts in the 60-80 ft range? If your portfolio is only superyachts, would you be able to recommend a broker for us somewhat poorer folks?

[@SuperYachtCaptain]

We do work with smaller vessels, in fact we’re working on a deal with a 72ft yacht. Feel free to send us an email and we’ll be happy to help.

[@arctictruck10]

Anything do do with water will cost you either a pool or boat

[@sappir26]

Is it possible to live onboard while chartering my yacht at the same time?

[@SuperYachtCaptain]

Where would the guests sleep if you’re staying onboard.

[@sappir26]

@@SuperYachtCaptain in the 2 guest suits. I would stay in my master suit while the guests are chartering the yacht. They wouldn't even know I'm there while they are on board. I'm talking about a 5 bedroom yacht.

[@SaltyDraws]

So I am on a small social security income but I've thought a lot about it and I'm now certain that I want to own a super yacht. I just need you to float me a small loan to get the build started.

[@markuswunsch]

Wait! Why so traditional? These days you finance your yacht with NFTs or the launch of "successful" startups like FTX or WeWork! Loan applications really are sooooo yesterday.

[@SaltyDraws]

@@markuswunschgreat advice. I just used my mothers coin jar to invest it all on a NFT of a monkey with a cymbal. It will probably make me millionz with a z.

[@paulohara1502]

👏👍👌

[@holesom522]

Captain do you know where TomJoeshow is? he kind of disappeared

[@SuperYachtCaptain]

Haven't heard from him n a while to be honest.

[@Bobblenob]

I would guess being a billionaire will help

[@justwayne4785]

AWOL’s owner is missed greatly.

[@SuperYachtCaptain]

He is a fantastic person and was a lot of fun to work for.

[@woolyimage]

Want to buy a superyacht you could do a lot worse than just speak to Bering yachts in Antalya.
