Deck by Deck is one of my favorites, please expand on this series eSysman!

[@YachtReport]

There are two other boats on my channel that have been featured like this. Andromeda and Planet Nine. I’ll create a playlist so you can find them.

[@andrewb9456]

I work in the offshore renewable sector as a cable lay technician, to see a yacht version of the types of vessels I work on is absolutely fantastic. This will be an incredibly capable ship that will probably be equipped with DP3 and stabilisation systems, a trip aboard this ship would be an incredible experience.... I’d trade in my 2 bunk cabin for the owners deck in a heart beat! Definitely my favourite super yacht to date. Fantastic video, I’d love to see more like this. More breakdowns due to lack of fuel would also be entertaining haha... keep up the good work, your video’s are entertaining for all the crew to watch onboard, always interesting.

[@BenDoverII]

Whether it’s a CAD drawing or HD pics...Andromeda is a Beauty!!!

[@w.e.b.8719]

The length was very good. I actually wanted more. The GA interspersed with. photographs is actually more informative than the usual videos of the interiors. Thank you vey much.

[@YachtReport]

[@blewyd]

Andromeda and it's sister ships are becoming my favorite super yachts.

[@vinnibou4584]

The crew cabins in the tank deck were not initially constructed. They were part of the refitting which took place some short time before the yacht was sold. In the initial plans, the specific space was a crew gym and crew sitting room with tv and game consoles.

[@YachtReport]

Very interesting. This happens often. Always the crew gym suffers!

[@vinnibou4584]

@@YachtReport If you are able and have time to search, there are videos in KZbin that demonstrate the original layout of the yacht when it was still called Ulysses. There is one that is approx 15 minutes where the whole interior was showed. Regarding the crew gym, I totally agree with you, and when I noticed some time ago that they refitted the specific space to make 3 cabins, I was disappointed..

Waited nearly 27 minutes to see the machinery spaces. Time that I won’t get back. Amended comment: I’m a long time fan of Mr eSysman’s videos. And a former employee of the previous owner. It’s an amazing vessel. I hope we can see more of these types of vids. With some discussion of machinery and systems.

When I worked on Graeme Hart's house in Auckland he was a nice friendly guy to us.

[@briananthony4044]

@@Andy_M986 He's had so many yachts called Ulysses, the early one was the rear deckhouse one, I believe it caught fire during the build, Graeme brought it from the insurance company and rebuilt it. Then there was the one he had built in Sth America, Chile was it? Never saw it completed at the Viaduct. Then this one, then the slightly bigger sister. Not bad for a tow truck driver lol.

[@charliewallace7197]

These deck plan walkthroughs are my favourite kind of video that you do. Having a look at Fraser Yachts there are a decent number available. But yeah, like you the one I really want to see is Octopus. Maybe you could start a Gofundme and we can all chip in for a cash reward for whoever can supply a decent recent one.

[@frederikschiemsky3030]

An anti roll tank is a tank that is filled with water on the highest point of the ship. The tank has perforated divisions in the tank where the water can go through from left to right. When the ship rolles the perforations in these divisions give a retarding anti roll effect on the ship. This system can be found on newer passenger and freight ships. It has been developped by the University of Leiden, Holland for MAERSK.

[@visionist7]

There used to be Frohm anti roll tanks with a valve between tanks allowing crew to adjust the level of damping. These were located below the waterline however.

[@frederikschiemsky3030]

@@visionist7 that is the traditional tank indeed, the more “sofisticated” version is to have tanks as high as possible above the wheel house. Due to the perforated divisions between the tanks it is a passive, not an active way to reduce roll. The higher above the center point of roll the more impact the tanks have.

[@TheFeralBachelor]

I love this! Please do more of these type of videos.

[@henrycarlson7514]

Interesting , Thank You . The next best thing to an actual tour , Thank you for the pictures , and the description . i hate to think about the cleaning and maitanance factor , not to mention keeping the crew trained and ready to respond

[@rustysailor4672]

Fascinating what you can do if at the end of the day you are still richer than before you paid for this yacht. For the next presentation, please look into the cursor settings. There are several highlighting options even in Windows, so I assume your Mac will offer even more options to allow me to follow your tour.

[@InterestedAmerican]

It may be a personal yacht, but the diversity of this ship makes me wonder if the owner ever charters it out for scientific ocean research? A general question I have about super yacht owners that occasionally place their yacht for charter is, what happens to the owners area when the yacht is on charter? Is the owner space off limits to everyone?

Would heli pilot / security / nanny get the single crew cabins?

[@evie6811]

I was thinking Nanny as well. I know for my children our nanny would be coming and not want to bunk up with crew she didn’t know.

[@KyrainMcLeod]

Heli pilot, maybe. Security, unlikely. Of course always depending on the owner, but nannies and personal butlers often get one of the guest rooms. I have seen some GAPs which were very family oriented (kids rooms, family spaces for breakfast and the like) where there were bespoke nanny rooms which were identical to guest rooms, except with a direct door to the kids bedroom.

[@privateschmuckitelli4546]

New to this channel. Maybe 25-30 vids in. Good stuff. Has anyone asked about desalination and fresh water usage/capability/limitations/etc. The initial answer will undoubtedly be, "Well, it depends really." So more specifically, is there a metric for water per person on board and/or surface area of the vessel? Also curious about the volume/hour, or however it is measured, of R.O.s for various size M/Y's. Keep up the good work.

[@supermandav]

Thank you.

[@stephenmurray9850]

Love this yacht and the video's they showed ( still on youtube too) when she was for sale are incredible. Fraser Yacht sales has a GA for the motor vessel ACE on it's web site as it's for sale. That looks incredible too, and a bit of a weird arrangement (I think) on the main deck aft. Have a look at it if you get time.

[@dmatty2373]

Thank you! This was an amazing look into yachts that few get to see.

[@joesphbest3120]

I slept in the hole on a ship with out any sun light and slept like a baby, could hear the ocean waves hitting the outside of the haul. the racks were 15 high and they were pipe and canvas racks. In the service you learn to sleep anywhere.

[@EdwardTilley]

Good tour. I think this is a better presentation than a walk-through in many ways...

[@chrismccracken]

I'd love to see a walkthrough (especially technical) of M/V Yersin if you can manage to track down a decently detailed GA doc (I haven't been able to find one). It is an absolutely incredible vessel.

[@rightsideupvt]

Seems like having the emergency generator away from the other generators and engine room might be a good idea in case there is a catastrophic issue in the ER.

[@zf4hp24]

I thought I spied an emergency generator on the topmost deck adjacent to the exhausts and behind the radars, "AC-5". That's where they're normally tucked - as high up as the architect can get it. Maybe it's the "absolute last resort" generator.

[@Alloyman6419]

Yes, it's a great idea and many yachts have done this. It's up front on Andromeda so it's closer to the front cranes that handle all of those boats stored in and on the bow

[@chipholland9]

The two crew cabins by the chain locker have a queen sized bed. Could they be for married couples working as crew?

[@rufusapplebee1428]

people who work on those yatches have executive authority to manufacture and destroy the yatch, or anything that threatens the assets on their command. it's probably for a single person.

@@YachtReport Thank you for reply

[@comachos]

[@carnivoreblues1331]

Great Video! A sauna can traditionally be either steam or dry hot air as they were heated with a wood stove and/or used wood heat to heat rocks and you could pour water over those rocks for steam. For modern recreation centers with both steam and sauna's, the sauna is typically heated electrically, so no water allowed on them as that could short them out. This results in a drier heat. The steam room is obviously pure steam as the heat source, also these days typically made electrically somewhere else, so it doesn't short out. The different types of heat hit different. I have a bad back and use them when I can, but prefer a steam room myself.

[@andiscott8470]

BIG fan of GAs, similarly to floor plans of properties. Always love to see how space is allocated, flows and is separated for different uses or groups of people onboard. Would love to see more of these videos!

[@YachtReport]

[@evie6811]

Everyone says there are 15 guest cabins but every time I see a deck plan or any video about it there are only 11...1 owners suite, 2 VIP’s on the boat deck and 8 on the pool deck. Where are the other 4 guest cabins? Thanks!

[@shawnmcmanus174]

What are the units of measurement and what is their significance? I.e. @1:19, the decks are each measured in what appears to be millimeters. However, @2:24 on the helicopter deck, we see markings "75" through "110." Those don't appear to be either meters or feet. What are they?

[@christophercarlston6260]

Great video and beautiful yacht. I'd love to see more of these. FYI, a "Sauna" is dry heat while a "steam room" offers steam heat.

But both me you sweaty! 😛

[@CAUSELESSREBEL]

Great walk through of a great yacht. I heard a rumor that there may be a commercial version of tilt rotor aircraft with an eye towards the super/mega yacht market? What say you about the idea? Faster. More range. Higher ceiling. More passengers. Smaller than the military version. How about M/Y Octopus for a walk through type video?

[@YachtReport]

I’ve heard the same.

[@CAUSELESSREBEL]

@@YachtReport Something to look forward to. Thank you for your reply. Best to you.

[@daddymuggle]

Early tests found an inherent problem with keeping the aircraft aloft during the transition between vertical and level flight. The USN/USMC kept killing test crews. I know there was promotional material for a light civilian version 20 or so years ago, but unless the safety issues have been resolved, I doubt there's a production version yet. I haven't kept up to date with tilt rotor development though. Perhaps they've solved that now?

[@seanmcrae6890]

Really great video, and I've enjoyed your channel immensely, especially the Q & A, although I wish we were asking better questions. Some of the subjects have been absolutely beat to death. You mentioned that it was a workhorse. Care to add any more details that a casual viewer might not know? I was wondering why the hull is so big, is it for hiding toys or something else? Further, what are the advantages found in explorer yachts that comparably sized vessels aren't capable of? Have you ever worked on one?

[@Jacob-W-5570]

Very interesting to see, especially from my merchant navy background. As an engineer a bit bummed that you cut it off before reaching the interesting stuff :P If you want the plans for a general cargo ship, to compare so to say, let me know if you are interested!

Really great video, thanks for putting the time and effort into making it. A really enjoyable 30 minutes spent watching this. One question. With container ships and bulk carriers cargo load and weight distribution is very important, is that the case with super yachts too with all the interior probably dripping with gold and all the other furnishings does the design engineer have to restrict the weight/loading of all this so the yacht doesn’t become overloaded or top heavy.

perhaps weirdly I'm always intrigued by the crew side of things - being a "guest" you get a very skewed perspective of what the ship's like - mostly you just see stews, and some of the deck guys, and the chef, and the ETO/AVIT guy is the only engineer you ever talk to - I don't want to sound a bit Eloi vs Morlocks but I never know if there are 2 or 20 engineers!
