2000 Van de Stadt Samoa 49 - Calibre Yachts

[@m.fheagle3286]

I’ve been coming back and rewatching this video and looking at pictures, can’t get this boat outta my head. Thanks for sharing with us, looks like living in a dream.

[@bazbbeeb7226]

theres a 1999 build with alumimium hull for sale here in Australia, a few $$$ over my over what id like to spend, but a man can dream.

[@JMVideos7676]

Can't afford any of these boats, but love watching the videos.

[@donaldvanvliet9039]

According to this man, this is the perfect boat...everything is beautiful, wonderful, brilliant, unique, best layout ever, comfortable, finished oh so well, well appointed, it’s all here folks, that’s what you want...even the heat from the heater is beautiful, and unique...wow

[@AKCub1]

[@martyspargur5281]

There are so many things could use updating. However, I'm not going to say Anything negative because the reality is, when someone purchases a boat like this, they're going to want their own modifications. A 24v boat isn't an easy sell around here, but to me a 24v boat is just ahead of its time. My two cents: Regardless of the things which do not appeal to everyone, this vessel is simply the Best balance of speed and comfort that exists, period. Any delivery skipper with time on a Van de Stadt is forever spoiled to disdain anything else. Did I mention safe? All Weather Safe. That is what matters most.

Shout out to the editor and drone pilot, nice work! I also love the salesman too.

Love these de Stadts, had a good chuckle at the Raphael in the master suite.

Sorry, I can’t agree with the decoration - holy cow! Thankfully easy to change. But I interesting boat! First fricking radiator I’ve seen. Always enjoy your presentations, and appreciate that you show the boats underway!

The name and the Dutch flag already gave it away but the radiator heating system really proved it’s a boat built in the Netherlands

[@billhanna8838]

Had a 54ft VDS great sea boats & quicker then what many think , loves a blow .

[@martyspargur5281]

5 week delivery on a Gallant 53, 4 weeks aboard an Ocean 71; Nothing else compares. People put way too much emphasis on Speed. If your boat is an accessory, and you have to be back at work in 4 days, fine. But hurtling through the night at 17 knots, or almost plowing into a container that wasn't visible six minutes ago, is the Opposite of a relaxing passage. I'm not talking about Bill Hanna saying the VDS is "quick". Neither light air or beating into F7 will stop her. I feel for the people who think they want a speedboat just because that's what the people written up in the magazine have.Thank You just my opinion.

[@martyspargur5281]

Don't get me going on "tailgates". How much time would one actually spend bonding with their kid sitting on the fold down transom if there's surge? If the generator's running? Just saying. That's all. (E.G.)VdS: Wholesome Passagemaker devoid of gimmicks.

Likely, IMO

[@Kiwigd]

Yeah.. Skip Novak has a series of videos filmed around Terra del Fuego (sp?) he shows those reels being used for stern lines..

[@davidwaugh143]

Agree - maybe stern warps for slowing down, but more likely shore lines for deep close-to anchorages (fjords and the like)

This guy is my favorite yacht presenter, and what a cool boat. He said "...much much more stronger than steel", did he mean that was it a slip of the tongue?

No slip of the tongue! The research on this type of composite is very interesting.

For a 20 year old boat that has been bashed around by the ocean for 60k nautical miles? If that is what they are asking it won't have any takers.

I'm the world's worst salesman. Fact: Buying a boat is an emotional decision. Don't bother with charts and graphs.

[@fredbugden3511]

My wife and I had a serious look. The standing rig is 20 years old , running rigging is tired , main sail is unusable , genoa has a couple of years of coastal sailing left in it ,so not quite shot. The Perkins M90 is at 4 K plus hours . Bottom paint is two years old. Never did get an answer on the age of the house batteries. As stated in the video the solar panels are dead and the electronics are dated...... At the right price and with a not insignificant investment of time and $$ it could be a great way for a couple to explore the world . Edit A new main sail has been now included but potential buyers should look carefully at the rest off the gear and systems, many of which are original to the boat. Fredb

[@danmcsweeney3054]

I have always enjoyed your videos, but lost a little respect in this presentation. You comment "look at all this natural light streaming in", but there is obviously artificial lighting in main salon, forward cabin and head, etc. I realize you need the lighting for video purposes, just don't claim it is "natural light" it it's not. Just saying...
