Another fabulous presentation however I do think that the depreciation amount would be at least 10/15% per annum on the costs. Accepting it's a pricey quality brand boat British built.

What a great surprise for a Friday afternoon. Nice boat, love that walnut gloss is back as that's my choice no matter if fashion or not. Not really a long term trip boat, probably max a week at a time but perfect for that. Love the garage as to not spoil the lines and love that it's easy to handle. Happy new year James and family, looking forward to the next one.

Prior to engine start I would want to go into the mechanical compartment, check the oil, bilge and other safety checks. Nice boat, I am an American but really like the British cruiser brands - Princess, Sunseeker and Fairline. Pearls are ok too but they are made off-shore so I do not consider them British. I enjoy your videos, as they are a a bit different from the run of the mill boat videos.

The top screen rail on all these hard top targa’s is really thick and makes forward view when helming really poor ,and with the side windows they don’t give a lot of ventilation in the med ….. on those IPs drive boats it’s always worth checking the exhaust connections onto the pod wouldn’t want another T45 sinking 😳.

James great video as always, but why exaggerate the prices? You had the same boat model on your channel last year with a starting price of 690000 where you said that these models are usually upgraded with 100000 making a total of 790000. And now after a year and 95 hours of work is 850000? Well, this is ridiculous to say the least.

Always enjoy your videos and appreciate your perspective. I am a little confused how you calculate depreciation. Assuming 0 as you suggested that would mean you could resale the boat privately for 850. But if you were to trade it in against another boat, what could you reasonably expect?
@Boatscouk Жыл бұрын
Yes depreciation always excludes brokers fees or works required . I will make that clear next time. If trading in - we would normally deduct these fees but retail value stays same if I state depreciation as £0 😎

im a fully qualified mechanical engineer with almost half a century of practical and design experience. I could half the annual servicing cost and still provide value for money. I really should move down to the South coast. 8K is almost 3 times what I payed for my 3 bed detached bungalow in Wakefield, West Yorkshire. admittedly this was 1974 but bugger me 8K for an annual service. A good mechanic could make a good living, don't think I've got the bare faced cheek to take advantage of people like that even if they obviously have more money than brain cells and sense.
@Boatscouk Жыл бұрын
Remember that £8k is over 5 ‘ engines’ 2 engines, 2 IPs drives and a generator . Take the vat off and that is £1,300 per unit. Parts must be a few hundred quid, then travelling , then lifts and all starts to add up but I agree it’s a lot !

It's a shame that it's IPS, I would never consider anything but straight shafts (or V of course) and there are too many IPS only boats - especially in my range (45 - 55'). I don't believe space is a reason, it's people not learning to drive proper and think they get so much more. You do get more, more costs!

You know who should buy this boat? Bloody Nick 'Aquaholic' Burnham! And if that bloody tosser days he can't afford it, he's straight karking lying! He's the most damn popular Yachttuber on here! and he has 2 channels! If Nautistyles is bloody buying a multi-million dollar yacht they supposedly didn't get a discount on (raise your hand if you believe that). Then he can afford a bloody Targa GT! (I'm American obviously and don't know British slang that well, but you get the jist). Just kidding. I don't think Nick has enough time to actually enjoy a yacht like this.
