Thanks Jack, great tour. Looks like the perfect boat to moor outside my beachside villa in the Med! All I need is money for the villa and boat 😆

[@coalitionperformance5901]

The space on deck and down below is huge compared to what I expected. Would be a great day boat in the med

[@richards6367]

One of the nicest Jeannau’s , a perfect day or weekender boat

[@borysnijinski331]

Weekend boat for sure, but for weekender the NC series is much nicer.

[@cookiemonster2299]

Will you please stop showing awesome boats, I'm getting a headache deciding which one/s to buy when I win the lottery. 🤪 Lovely boat, cheers Jack 👍🇬🇧❤️

[@MrRebar15]

*Motor Boat & Yachting* Very nice, thank-you sir for taking the time to show us. God Bless.

[@TB12710]

What really makes this boat nice is when you consider it’s size then go below and a couple or two has a decent place to sleep for a night.

[@ancientfinn3738]

Thank you for another great video, Jack. Great boat too.

[@nickwebb9290]

Superb tour as always. Really like this boat, it’s a real winner 👍

[@7rays]

I can see myself living on that boat and spending the entire summer circumnavigating the Great Lakes of the United States

[@borysnijinski331]

You can only circumnavigate Lake Michigan in USA…circumnavigating the remaining lakes would require you to go into Canada.

[@7rays]

@@borysnijinski331 pedantic much?

[@borysnijinski331]

Yes…without precision in your communication you get misunderstanding. Also reflective of someone who is ignorant about geography, but then Americans are globally famous for not knowing geography. Or maybe you do not know what “circumnavigate” means (another very common American affliction).

[@7rays]

@@borysnijinski331 Don’t be so stupid. I’ve done it several times. You said sack

[@jaffaholland4039]

looked like an amazing boat

[@chrisoleary9876]

Thanks Jack!

[@iancharlton678]

Not a style I warm to, but I really liked this one……. I usually find them gimmicky fashion over function, but whereas this is a stylish modern boat, it seems far more practical to my traditional eye. I’m even warming to the outboards 🙂 Nice leisurely tour Jack 😎

[@TheUrbanEpicure]

Odd comment. Cap Camarats are pretty much the most pragmatic, gimmick-free new boats you can buy. I call them dad boats.

[@michiganengineer8621]

3:45 MAJOR ding against this offering from Jeanneau. The damned life-raft should NOT be so hard to access!

[@borysnijinski331]

I hate that the cockpit table is raw, unfinished wood. The unfinished wood seems to be standard with Jeanneau power boats…our NC37 came with unfinished cockpit table and wooden cockpit scupper covers also raw unfinished wood. Wood is now no longer raw and unfinished…I spent the winter finishing them using pure tung oil and are now so much more aesthetically pleasing to see and touch.

[@clifbradley]

Lot of sailboat style incorporated in there it looks like. Reasonable weekend boat, although I suspect if a couple went out with their kids for a week they could handle it. The absence of a TV might be an issue at night though. But maybe not. After a week though, it's too small and everyone wants to fight.

[@suspicionofdeceit]

Why would you go out on a trip and then proceed to watch tv?

[@sharonbraselton4302]

[@bigmock141]

There's a tv concealed above the outdoor galley

[@omarawadh8023]

Mashaallah, ❤️

[@jonaus6171]

Nice boat, pity its 12.5 m rather than 12.0 m long which here in the Balearic Islands DOUBLES the annual berth rental from ~£15K to around £ 30K !! Three engines = extra un-necessary costs both purchase & annual maintainance....and again, no dedicated trash bin in the cockpit......

[@eyesofisabelofficial]

I think this is much better value for money compared to that DB43 moored next door.

[@carlosbaltodano7811]

Where do you get your prices from? I haven’t been able to find one under $600k?

[@erichaskell]

And you have a wrist with a Rolex as an extra cost option.

[@borysnijinski331]

Mine has a vintage Omega Constellation and TAG Carrera.

[@johngauntlett4915]

Nice boat, to fast of a walkthrough, felt nauseas with camera panning so fast.

[@adrianrubi5012]

Looks like a WA and not a CC.

[@TheBillclark2]

Why 3 motors vs the 2 425s?

[@tacodias]

More power, cheaper to buy, better efficiency! Jack mentioned it

[@borysnijinski331]

Twin 450s would be a better option.

[@tacodias]

@@borysnijinski331 why?

[@UKReloader]

300k and you get a water damaged table that looks like its made out of cheap plywood for free

[@Cadaverine1990]

Had to cut costs in a couple of places, the seats were just a blah vinyl with no stitch patterns what so ever. and the dash looked to be an injected molded gray plastic and didn't even line up with the fiberglass work where they met up.

[@kirkwilliams4942]

I'm sure she sucks down WAY to much fuel.
