I love this new trend of taking tired old workhorses and giving them a new start and a new life. For me, this is what super yachting should be all about, exploring the globe in the ultimate luxury, not just posing in Monaco for a couple of weeks a year. If I had the money, this is what I'd do.

Super yachts have huge carbon footprints. They consume 20, 30, or more gallons per mile. They contribute to climate change and the destruction of the planet, stronger hurricanes, more drought, more wildfires, famine, malnourished and dying children, to name a few. I hope they all sink (and no one is injured).

@@bigmuscles250lbs Just do it better. No reason sails can't be used and updated to a truly modern standard with automatic rigging. You just maintain the pulleys and stuff in the same way you would previously maintain an engine. Not to mention solar panels for lower speed cruising.

This channel is quickly starting to be a 'must watch' as soon as it pops up in my feed. Simply incredible. As a side-not, it is funny how Icon Yachts take an old ship and transform it into something modern and amazing. There is an auto company in LA called Icon as well, and they take old vehicles and re-imagine them into a more modern and luxurious experience. I can't afford to buy from either company, but I definitely do appreciate the expertise, vision and sheer artistry that goes into these 're-imaginings'.

Having seen an oilfield supply vessel in action in the South China Sea during a typhoon a few decades ago, I have enormous confidence in their stupendous abilities. Notable memories involve the Smit Lloyd 101 rearing out of the waves on full power to time her passing with a helicopter landing on the bucking deck of a barge (in case it went over the side). They’re great, even more so the latest supply vessels. But even when converted, it would be good to honour the sturdy pedigree by avoiding the term ‘yacht’ however fancy they are! Better to think of them as luxurious working boats - and be proud of their tough origins.

Just when you thought the people at Icon had pulled out all the stops to turn Sanaborg, built as an ice breaking multi-purpose support supply vessel in to the luxury vessel Ragnar, Here we are again watching this renowned shipyard in the Netherlands take on yet another epic challenge, Turning another working ship in to a luxury vessel, it takes recycling / upcycling to a different level, Hopefully David, Icon will invite you back and we can follow the progress of this and possibly the “other” build, unfold as we did with Ragnar, With your impeccable standards, for detail and your team of videographers, this will once again become a must watch build as did Ragnar. Thank you David, and thank you to all involved at Icon Yachts for this incredible insight in to the world of luxury shipbuilding and sailing, one can only dream of ?

Large search & rescue boats as such have always intrigued me given their ruggedness & agility. I'm a Toyota Land Cruiser kind of guy so I've always gravitated towards them. For years now I'd slowly drift away and day dream about refurbishing one of these vessels every time I lay my eyes on one. It makes so much sense -- and may very well be the springing of a whole new market sector that speaks to the likes of myself and the two obviously awesome owners! Thanks for the video.

I can see a collaboration with Damen shipyards on the horizon. Damen is known for pre-producing these sea gong vessels and at the moment they have building capacity available. The yachting trend is definitely gone in a direction where size is no longer leading, but what you can do with the vessel and this opens up the pre production of these yachts. Damen builds the hull and the technical installation, Icon (and others) finish it off. Let's see where we go in the near future, but so far a very interesting story.

The Yacht will have specific noise reduction measures. E.g. all machinery will be on floating mounts which eliminates major parts of the vibrations, further all generators will sit in their own sound proof casing to further reduce noise leves. Also all guest areas will be outfitted with floating floors and specifically noise insulated. The Bridge will stay mostly as is, mainly just some cosmetic touch ups. The aft console which was used for offshore operations will be removed and replaced with a nice seating area.
