[@tuinuinuitui9374]

[@Marinehydraulicsolutions1]

Great video Vitters. Thanks for sharing...and thanks to the Discovery channel!

[@samblakey516]

27:36 Matt Braddon, legend in the Shearography game... serviced many of my yachts

[@jorgplucker6848]

People what is wrong with you, I am poor as but still enjoy watching this video. Why is there so much hate and jealousy? How do you know that Billionaires don't give money away for starving children, and sorry that not everybody's English is perfect!!!!!

[@adrianvalbuena8158]

What a nice documentary!! A lot of technical details and a lot of humanity there. As engineer and sailor I have enjoyed it so so much. Sadly I would never own one of this sailboats....actualy I don't really need or want one....but I almost know how to buid it, hahaha.

[@vittersshipyard]

Thank you!

[@peterbradshaw8018]

Vitters just gained an admirer.

[@N2peopleskills]

Great video and a great yacht builder. Congratulations Jan & Louis

[@saintr3394]

a great video to show us the lifestyle.. i know one special sailing yacht that cost over 80 million and its based in new york.. only used 2 weeks out of the year :) an amazing sport filled with passsion !!!!!!!!

[@captainmarkgray8856]

RE: The first yacht: The newest Lithium batteries are 3 times lighter than lead acid batteries, not 10 times lighter as stated here so is there some new battery or just a mistake of words? And why not switch the main gen from #1 to #2 - 50% of the time - thus giving #1 a break etc? Perhaps every so many hrs like 100 hrs switch? Most of all, when needing as little wind as possible to move the yacht, well, every sailor knows that it is the norm (even when sailing hurricanes) that at sunup and sunset the winds die to their lowest so it amazes me to see people not using that to their advantage with something so very important to do in the low or no wind situations. It's always better to avoid a problem or war than to deal with it or win it at usually a very high and avoidable cost. The most important thing when building a sailing yacht is to build it from the dead center and lowest point,,, outward equally,,, in all directions. Balance her dead center on a pin Sir and then you have a starting point to progress from. Nothing should be stowed, ALL things should have their place and a place for ALL things. Movable ballast can even be offset if need be. Begin with PROPER Trim and then the ability to rapidly adjust the trim is only the starting position to any good sailing vessel. And yes, it would not be too difficult to even automate the trim adjustments. LIGHT & strong vs STRONG and light! I will be awaiting my check which is surly in the mail :-) Happy seas!

[@raymondmills9377]

That company employs a lot of people... thank god for rich people...

[@strongdan1]

Thanks ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@LS-kp6em]

wow - the score is like from a bad TV ad.

[@digfire1]

ive seen some of those yachts during 2014 new years in st.barth

[@TarmanTheChampion]

23:00 that green is called Seahawks green :D

[@glenperham8091]

Awesome I am constructing my own 21 meter yacht so good to see build videos and gather more ideas any more videos coming ?

[@deibertmichael]

Beautifull!

[@ptewilks2634]

Turning the effing music off please

[@srreventon]

If you have the $$$$$$$ And you love these yachts then rent one for a week and LIVE LIFE... I loved how in his 60s richard straman from newport beach california and knkwn for his custom auto shop (build ferrari convertibles etc) Decided to sail around the world for a few years!!!!!!! To quit working and do something amazing is priceless Another figure of newport beach was the latw anthony delfino that had sailing in his blood.... doing many newport beach to ensenada and a few hawaii races His love for the ocean made him purchase a sailing racing yacht and that trophy that takes years was his pride and joy to the legacy of his life Google newport beach anthony delfino and see the wonderfull paintinf of him and his love for sailing under the images I suggest everyone also do a similar painting for their legacy page God bless everyone!!!!

[@islandaerial3414]

Flash forward to 2018. Those boats are totally obsolete. Wow

[@Scrappycat1966]

Very cool documentary..... Crappy sound quality and laughable CC.....

[@johncampbell6114]

Why does the stupid noise drown out the vocals ? .

[@Palexco]

shedule. sounds like its missing the C. but I know its not. No complaints here, just watched a free video!

[@calitividad]

WHARE IS THE PROJECT MANAGEMENT , MANY PROBLEMS IN MANUFACTURE .

[@jamesbaxter2812]

Ok, So I see big batteries in the boats, I am looking at solar power pannels and a wind turbine or two. This can work with the power and not use a gen set

[@EPICRANDOMGUY02]

They cannot provide enough power for such a large boat. The hydraulic steering, lighting, navigation equipment, fridges, ovens and other things require 10's of Kilo-Watts of power. Also with solar panels you would have no power at night, and a wind turbine that is powerful enough would be WAY too big and impractical to put on a ship.

[@aia.6979]

James Baxter ok

[@Aron-ru5zk]

They need a generator because if they are out at sea at night with no wind, there screwed so the generator is a backup

[@TASMAN-1]

That music is invasive.

[@chris15325]

I wish my car's steering wheel were so big

[@networkbike543]

The British end of it looked bad. Half interested workers with cigs. Pulling the yacht out of the hanger was an embarrassment.

[@HearThisDestinyChanger]

nice

[@thomaselliott573]

seems strange that they have such an expensive high tech operation and they cannot get a trolley with reasonable wheels that are able to do the job, The moving sequence looks amateurish.

[@EPICRANDOMGUY02]

Probably just using old equipment until it breaks, still I agree.

[@johnwayne2103]

I love watching these yatch making videos but sometimes I have to point out the 800Lbs Gorilla in the room. Some of these yacht makers buildings are on pieces of land that just can't accommodate making these Mega yachts in an efficient manner. I saw one case where they needed to pull the yacht out and turn it around to put it back into the building. That evolution took an entire day. Or moving the finished example to the paint room took another day. Assembly lines anyone? The example of pulling the lower half of the Yacht to accommodate the upper half caused so much stress on the movement frame if caused the tire to blow out. I know these shows like to create drama when there is none but a little less on the drama and more on the problem solving makes for a better show.

[@HomoEconomicusX]

what kind of documentary is this? not mastered at all. comment very quiet, the interviews very loud.

[@yacht2007]

Pity no fuel cells are used instead of lead batteries or flammable lithium batteries.

[@herranton]

+yacht2007 I would take "flammable" Lithium batteries over a giant tank of hydrogen compressed to 10,000 psi. Sure, I remember the Boeing Dream-liner, but I also remember the Hindenburg. You can easily cool the batteries, Tesla does it all day long.

[@Aron-ru5zk]

I'd rather my boat catch fire than explode then catch fire

[@Rancor1985]

5:12 "Tomorrow its the plan, to bring boats, hall sister boat outside to shit"

[@vittersshipyard]

"... to bring both halves of the hull outside the shed..."

[@Rancor1985]

Aha, mooie boot verder hoor :)

[@mr.sebnup897]

+Vitters Shipyard--- (5:12) That type of misunderstanding, as well as many other issues of a similar nature may not have occurred in the first place had that wonderful music been mixed at an appropriately lower level. Further, the dialog would be far easier to follow without those awful whooshing sounds heard during transitions. They merely serve to distract and confuse the listener without adding anything of value. I suggest that modern film producers would benefit greatly by following the examples of their predecessors and keep the dialog in the foreground rather than mixing it as an adjunct to the sound effects and background music.

[@madrededeus]

Anybody knows the name of the music...? 0.10 to 1.10..?

[@BarkiMustapha]

great work

[@BarkiMustapha]

pro sailor if there is any position

[@nigellbutlerrr2638]

hydraulic systems ALWAYS LEAKNEVER ON A BOAT STEERING SYSTEMFOOLISH

[@Serveck]

my 20ft speedboat has hydraulic power steering and hydraulic trim adjustment. same pump as a pickup truck. works mint.

[@user-zt2bc1fc8f]

I found this very difficult to listen to as the sound is quite uneven. The narrator's voice volume level is much lower than the people who are being interviewed. Then putting the music on top of that, it becomes a strain to listen to this piece. Also, six minutes in and I get the feeling this is simply a long infomercial for the shipping company. I won't make it any further. I am glad that others have found it interesting, but it is a disappointment for me. I am generally a big fan of documentaries, so it is very rare for me to make a negative comment about one.

[@pistolannie6500]

+Brenda A Possibly just your device? Sound was FINE for me. I actually had to turn the sound down. (on my new $3.50 headphones. GREAT sound w/them! ) But no...it wasn't that good. way too much back and forth from building the one ship...too racing the other one. :-)

[@GregTrickey]

43 year old male. Very difficult to hear the spoken words. Background music was too loud.

[@GrumpyOldMan9]

Dutch make them, half-witted- "we have a grand piano on board" -Anglospherists race them, Russians own them

[@julius8186]

25:40 41:38 41:52 42:08

[@pangrac1]

Steinway on board lol.

[@strongdan1]

the dutch and the english build better yacht world wide

[@SuperDirk1965]

Another video that proves my point that Dutch people should be forbidden to speak English.

[@ericshutter5305]

+dirk bomans Much easier then others having to speak Dutch.... so your opinion means nothing.

[@SuperDirk1965]

+Eric Shutter easier THAN....

[@GrumpyOldMan9]

+dirk bomans I stand in the gang and strike my brook. Hear, hear.

[@laurentfroggy6631]

dirk bomans: Do you actually speak another language?

[@SuperDirk1965]

I speak Dutch, English, French and German. I understand a bit of Latin and some Spanish. How about you Laurent?

[@markknoop6283]

That's very bad.

[@cornenothome4191]

interesting but an enormous wastefull way of owning a boat. #ridiculous

[@lml6.653]

what a waste of money .... sailboats are so boring

[@markknoop6283]

Well @ least you can cross an ocean whit it.
