We got a NEW BOAT! 2024 42' Freeman Boatworks - Walkthrough and Sea Trial!

[@danward8720]

Congrats on the new boat, Nick. She's a beauty. Looking forward to videos of her. Hopefully, you'll let your daughter have some time at the helm. She'll remember that for years to come. Congrats again!

[@StanzFam]

Thanks Dan! Appreciate it. I hope both the girls get to drive it

[@Veranamo]

Awesome to get a look at the details of an incredibly high end product from a down to earth personality. Reminds me of seeing Ferraris and Lamborghinis at car shows. Thanks!

[@tombrown7577]

Life is treating you well and you deserve it. I would like to be in your shoes just for a couple weeks. Good times and tight lines!

[@StanzFam]

Thank you! Some stuff is great but I promise I have other issues no one would want.

[@ThomasShue]

Life is too good for some folks and not enough for others. Good to be on the good side of life!

[@StanzFam]

No doubt There has been a lot of good in my life however it comes with a price. I promise there is plenty of bad stuff too. Just like everyone else we succeed in certain areas and fail/struggle in other areas.

Thank you! Look forward to using all the new electronics

[@jeffmarcum6409]

@@StanzFam Just curious, why did you "make the switch to Garmin". Is it the screen size of the Garmins?

[@StanzFam]

@jeffmarcum6409 was ready for a change and wanted some of the new features and technology from Garmin.

[@StanzFam]

100 agree. I Would love to buy all USA made but I want the most reliable product. It would be foolish to think we all don’t use stuff in our everyday lives from overseas, whether it’s a cell phone, tv, car, microwave, oven, clothing etc. Thanks for watching 👊🏻

They still make the 42 but added a 43 to the models. It’s a little different but costs quite a bit more

Awesome but at 62 MPH what was the MPG?...........Beautiful boat, go make memories.

[@StanzFam]

Prob 105- 110 gph at that zero , so .6 mpg or so

[@ericdavi1231]

The fact you have kept using Yamaha 300s for so long is a big reason why I repowered my boat with them. 150 hours so far, haven’t had the slightest hiccup ever! I even took it to Pulley Ridge from Sanibel last month!

Switch the console for a pilot house and that’s my dream boat.

[@Scottysevins]

You must be from the northeast like me lol.

[@Rainersherwood]

@@Scottysevins no not even haha. Go look up merrick boat works and freeman. They built jimmy buffet the most insane boat. Pilot house 47’ I think. I just have zero interest in a traditional yacht, no ability to fish from it. I would want to take a boat like this all through the keys, the Bahamas and Caribbean, do multi day deep sea fishing trips, all things where I’d want to sleep on it. And to just get out of the sun and rain and into the AC. I’m in Florida, pretty much directly west of the Bahamas.

[@lenjames]

Another great vid. Question..the older 42 with the new motors that where installed on. How much of a pounding can these Freemans take being used as a charter boat before one decides to buy a new one and sell the old? Pounding..i.e. Saltwater corrosion on electronics and such that might keep the boat down and not making money.

[@StanzFam]

Obviously the more use the more wear and tear but the biggest factor of me selling is the resale value. With the long wait times we have been able to get out of a 2-3 year old boat and into a new one without coming out of pocket. My original 37 we got in January 2016 prob has over 12,000 hours on the hull and could use a fresh makeover with regards to switch panels , lights , some wiring etc

[@lenjames]

​@@StanzFamnever really thought about the build time. That makes sense. Congrats on the new one. Love the whole channel and how fast the little ones grow..unreal. Blink of an eye and my daughter is 10.

[@StanzFam]

Thank you. Agreed, they grow quick 🙂

Welcome aboard! Hope you enjoy it

[@MatthewLedenko]

Awsome boat. My only question is at what length do you need a captins licence?

[@StanzFam]

We charter the boat so we all have captains licenses to offer trips. I know people with freemans up to 47’ without a captains license, but I would assume insurance costs go down when the owner has one. Not sure if there is a specific size vessel where you need a license
