$349,000 1997 NAVIGATOR 5600 SUNDANCE Power Motor Yacht Tour / Liveaboard Boat

[@robertbenson9337]

The condition of this vessel is amazing. Especially the engine room. the engines look brand new. Plenty of storage space. The layout and space is very comfortable. For a 24 year old boat it is in pristine condition.

[@lionelgower6877]

This is a really impressive yacht for its age and price. Loved the dingy cradle location,

[@SaorAlba1970]

that boat/yacht is a ideal live aboard when you compare it to house/apartment prices in that part of America ... you have a great entertainment section on the fly bridge and on the cockpit also comes with aa large dingy and a smaller one so you and your guests can go on wee adventures and scouting out for good spots to anchor the boat what a great boat ... thanks for sharing Rico & Victoria .... just goes to show there loads of life in older yachts if you look after them right

[@andyvankerkhove6902]

a house or appartment will go up in value... this old piece of polyester is woth nothing in a couple of years... this is ridiculous

[@teaeff8898]

@@andyvankerkhove6902 not a boater, I assume. It’s made of fibreglass, and it has an equivalent lifespan to the shoddy shit they put up in giant suburban tracts. So at least 50 years, maybe 75 or 100? Theres fibreglass boats from the 50s people still use daily. There’s wooden boats that are 100-150 years old. Or more.

[@shitloveaduck]

@@teaeff8898 so true. If they are well cared for, not unlike a home, they will retain their value at this point. There was a big amount of depreciation initially. Not unlike housing as well, you would pay right near, if not over, $1,000,000 for an equivalent replacement. Ouch!!!

[@notboeingnotgoing5483]

I did the live aboard deal back in S Florida in the 90's before I was married, some great times

[@DC-si8xw]

it's not that easy. boats are always trying to sink and degrade in the salt water. marina fees can be the same as a mortgage and the resale not good. there is always repairs to be made. also your insurance company may not even let you move the boat yourself to enjoy a weekend getaway without enough experience as a captain

[@arekpetrosian4965]

It's me and my wife and our daughter...this boat would be PERFECT!! Great tour as usual, Vico!! I love your back-and-forth, you guys are awesome together. And the out takes are always a real treat!!

[@constantineding8700]

I like the practicality oozing throughout the whole boat. Take the master cabin as example, the boat is only 4.57 meter in width and it still fit a kingsize bed in it. We have a lot of new modern boat with wider beam but with a much smaller bed in the full beam master just to give more space to make the airy feeling. We definately spend most of the time in our bedroom on bed. So a bigger bed absolutely has preference over something like a chaise lounge. I also love the true full beam lounge area with everything in the right place. It's more like a living room of a beach-side condo, the only difference is that you could change the view outside of your window as you wish.

[@Puddlepiratesince1953]

I been watching you two since you started. The good Lord knows if I could I would live the same nautistyle y'all do. But watching your show keeps the dream alive. You two are awesome.

[@NautiStyles]

Thank you soooo much!

[@johnhecker7652]

Is this still available?

[@stkygrnz]

lol, I love watching the two of you give yacht tours. Not only are we provided great information about the boat, but we are thoroughly entertained as well during the process. No outtakes even needed, they're just an added plus at the end. That little old school cell phone bit was hilarious! Another great tour of what definitely looks like a perfect liveaboard. If only I wasn't stuck in the middle of Minnesota. Great video and tour! Thanks, Victoria and Rico.

[@dodgeguyz]

That looks to be a very well maintained boat. You can see the pride in ownership everywhere! Love that they kept some of the old school electronics, like the house phone and cell phone, great conversation pieces. Me and my wife are RV’ers, but I can see living on this for months at a time.

[@jcs480able]

The stabilizers and engine room definitely perked my attention. I would knock out the cabinets behind the 2 chairs in the salon and fabricate a built in couch with storage under the cushions to really open up that space. Great find.

[@Floorguy1000]

I love your affordable live-aboard series. 56 foot, under $300k -- very nice. Must have undergone major renos during its life...doesn't look like a 97 to me. Thanks again !

[@NautiStyles]

We agree!

[@franksierz4774]

The both of you are nothing short of phenomenal ! I thoroughly enjoy all of your yacht tour shows.

[@wingedmonkeys548]

this boat is really really interesting, spacious, comfortable the layout is really cleverly thought out!! most of the navigators are highly sought after for their interior space! those who are a pity is that there are very few in europe because manufacturing In the USA !! in any case for this video you and Rico you had the right words for this boat you felt the positivity of this 56 foot ship !! awesome video...

[@Pickogeuner]

What an amazing boat! Wow. Thank you both so much for showing us this! Absolutely love the way you guys mix the types, capabilities and different purposes of the boats you show us. But gotta say I love the layout of this one. Great compromises in the right places. ❤️

[@Pickogeuner]

Ps. Glad you both had a great time in Spain. Fingers crossed you guys can make it to Southampton boat show one day! Colab with Aquaholic maybe? 🤜🤛

[@NautiStyles]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@NautiStyles]

@Paul Pickett Yes and Yes

[@mikes3827]

@@NautiStyles What's great about owning and/or living aboard boats is that unlike automobiles that can look VERY dated after a number of years, the average layperson can't usually discern between a newer boat vs. a model 20+/- years old, especially when the interior is remodeled with modern electronics/TVs, newer furniture, etc. And for the price it is REALLY a great condo alternative. I'm looking to purchase one of these used units, and you two motivated and inspired me to wanna do it.

[@unfurling3129]

aside from being extremely entertaining as usual, you two are more thorough and organized than any other brokers -- by far. thx!

[@unfurling3129]

To be fair I have only seen organised & thorough yacht walk-thrus.

[@gradyneal]

Seriously one of the best layouts I've seen in a long time. It really is a great live aboard.

[@barrysaiff8475]

This seems like an awesome boat. Really helps give me hope that I could find something affordable that really works as a liveaboard.

[@Mostaism]

I love when you both see a feature you want for yourself, and how excited you get.

[@mr.ginnationfunlifestyle3891]

I think, it should be the new „ Nauti“ Headquarter for you to work and live on. Why not? I would think about this. Really enjoyable useful fun vessel with space and equipment. Some little changes and it goes. A lot of real value for this amount of money. Maybe not the big deal bargain, but highly recommended to live on. Great job 👏 team Nauti Styles.

[@jerrydoran3961]

I love you two. I think you should have two or three children given Victoria's statement about doing her work in the main cabin while letting the "kids" do their homework up in the helm area. What a thoughtful and loving observation. I'm a former USAF flight Medic and RN for 23 years. I consider you my friends and am grateful for what you do. Danke Schon

[@the-chillian]

KZbin kept recommending this one to me. It looks as if you made it several months before I started watching your channel and the boat has probably sold by now, but it was a good watch anyway. It's hard to believe this was less than 2 years ago -- you guys have come so far since then! It's nice that Victoria will never have to be jealous of a refrigerator or full washer-dryer ever again, and Rico will always have an engine room he can stand up in. But it's hard to imagine how much work you guys had to do behind the scenes to get to where you are now.

[@NautiStyles]

🙏🏻🥳 thank you so much, appreciate your support

[@RoadTripTravel]

I used to work for a Navigator dealer back in the mid-2000s, nice boats.

[@AdrienSeguy]

Wow, this boat really is amazing. Truly one of the best liveaboards I've seen

[@purselmer5931]

Always wanted my boys to be tall. Now I'm realizing they'd not fit in any of the staterooms of these boats, lol. But I am LOVING these tours. Thanks so much.

Awesome, this yacht is almost perfect.

[@elcajondavid1]

It might be old but it is without a doubt a definitely a beauty.

[@carldevries9108]

This one was really attractive to me. Lots of space, clean engine room, stabilizers, good layout. I would change very little. I could definitely be comfortable living on this one. Just have to say too, that Victoria is stylish as usual.

[@hardlyworkin3603]

Love this yacht. So incredibly beautiful. Would be a great new home for NautiStyles. Reasonable price, great size, and my gosh, the galley has a beautiful fridge !! You are two wonderful, hard working captains who deserve a gem such as this. I like the engine room too. Thanks for the great tour.

[@markhancock6694]

This is the best/nicest 50+ footer you guys have done yet!! The best layout I have ever seen in this style of boat. My only concern would the number of engine hours on each power plants. A perfect boat. So clean and such a great use of space bow to stern. If it was on the east coast, I would buy it today. The only thing I would do is spend the $10,000 (??) to add a hard top on the fly bridge. Rico was a little rushed this time. Eat something next time guy!! Enjoyed the video! Keep it up.

[@davidsprinkle1111]

I love when you two do these walkthroughs for the yachts you're showcasing. They bring so much to dream about. It's always been my dream to own a yacht, but I don't think I can ever own one. You two are not like other sales persons I've seen on other vlogs. You're funny and keep me laughing throughout your vlogs. I love you two and love what you do.

The parties on the top deck....Yeah nice! I like that the master cabin is separated from the guest cabins. The exposed upper helm would really suit where I live, no need to enclose it. 👍 Great work again Nautistyles!!! Keep show me more like this!

[@robbie8142]

Massive, solid and best of all EVERYTHING TOTALLY FLOATS! That is totally already paid for. How special is that!

[@hunyesmith03]

I love stuff like this! With a bit of savings and a loan anyone can afford a livaboard and this is the perfect combination of price, size & features! I’d be very happy with this. When me and my SO moved back home to London (UK, not Ontario) after a 5 year break I wanted to buy a yacht but that idea was shot down pretty quickly. Maybe justifiably but on one side we had nice relatively large motoryacht moored in The Thames in a C.London dock or a medium sized apartment in a different part of C.London & where I grew up. So we obviously chose the apartment but whilst I’m so happy to be back in the area I grew up and surrounded by family and nostalgia I can’t help but think about what could’ve been. A home on the water capable of sailing around the world, docking in beautiful places, or simply dropping anchor & living off grid sounds amazing! I guess that dream will have to wait the 30-40 years it will take me to reach retirement! I just have to build up enough “marriage points” because that’s all marriage is, scoring points!

[@Big.Ron1]

Wow, nice boat. You are right, harbor cruising or over to the islands is what she is perfect for. There isn't enough fuel for long range cruising but plenty for harbor hopping and island hopping. And comfortable. I wouldn't mind this one at all. Thank you and be safe.

[@alanblasczyk1779]

[@marcusrussell8660]

I wish you would discuss what a boat slip would cost for all the boats you review. And what maintenance and fuel cost on a annual base. I have owned eight boats. But as I have said before prior to buying everyone needs to get an independent survey of any boat you consider buying. Just my .02. Thanks for finding these boats, you remind me of the time I was stationed in Nuerinberg.

After many weeks of super yachts, this is great video to bring us all back to reality 😜 Jokes aside, I would not have guessed this is from 1997. Jokes not aside, take-outs deserve an extra 👍

Lived near MDR for many years. That 56 footer is extraordinary. Excellent condition. The accommodations are superb. Huge galley and salon. Fresh water maker, laundry area, lots of storage. A condo on the water for 295K is a bargain. Permission to come aboard? Well done video.

Very nice boat for the money, all it needs for me is radar and a second VHF (can't have a helm with no radio). Someone has taken incredibly good care of her over the years, that upholstery in the pilothouse is in amazing condition for original and tells you a lot about how she has been treated.

I would LOVE this yacht if I knew anything about a boat!! (Such as what in the world is a Laaazzzuuurete?? Did I say it tight??) I'm an RV guy myself so I can admit I don't know too much about boats except for the related parts that they use on an RV like the Dometic fridge that looks like it was taken right out of a motorhome..oh and the washer dryer is a combo stack unit not two separate units..they are joined at the hip like my aunt Rosa!! haha I mean yes they are separate in reason they aren't like a combo Splendide brand model but when one goes south the other joins it!! Cheers!

Thanks for the great video tour. Of all the boats I've seen in this size range - this one certainly is the roomiest. I really like the layout/design.

Hiya Vico, what a wonderful find, a live-a-board that more people could afford. I love the wood colour, I'm not into the dark wood look at all. A lot of storage, but not all lockable though, or is that just me? Love the jewellery V, but no stripes? Has the hair style changed? I could maybe see you three abord here, is it big enough for you? That flying bridge fridge inside was so yellow, yes I know you said about changing it, but they live with it. If we all gave you $2 you could buy this and do some upgrades, not in the engine room though, stabilisers? Wow, I'm impressed, what a great bonus. When you were talking about her being taller than next door, I thought about, oops, top heavy, but no problem there. Stay safe, Steve...
