I am so flattered with your comments ! As the builder of this vessel i sincerely thank to all my colleagues who have contributed to the construction of this beautiful yacht 👏👏👏

[@johnlloyddy7016]

Do those masts have any sailing function or are they just for aesthetics?

[@ralikdiver]

She's a beautiful ship of classic lines. The woodwork looks wonderful. Had I the means to obtain and operate such a vessel I would be proud to sail her anywhere. Now to go check my lottery tickets...

[@jugaloking69dope58]

@@johnlloyddy7016 think them are just for the classic old school radar masts look. Like that fake smoke stack 😎 people call it a 60s look but I'd say that looks like its a 1920s wood steamer

[@scottflesia363]

Great job. Stunning woodwork.

Sir, you have built a truly beautiful, distinctive, and exquisite yacht. One day I will need to give you a call! For now, I need to get back to work so I can earn that privilege! :)

[@patrickabas1112]

I was stunned by your remark that she was only built 5 years ago as she does have the classic features of the 60's yachts.

[@doug3512]

Beautiful in a timeless way. Really spectacular.

[@angelmaldonado7967]

At first look I thought it was a 60's yacht until he said it was only built 5 years ago. I think she looks better than the garish new look ships. I half expected to see Ernest Hemingway when he walked around a corner as he gave a tour of the ship. Simply a beautiful ship.

"You don't travel to arrive, but to travel." (Goethe) Comfort and class over speed. I really love it and was always a fan of round sterns. The VIPs are cleverly planned and the interior design leaves the needed room for personalization to add a bit more coziness. A nice carpet here, a bit more fabrics, two Poltrona Frau chairs there..... and it would feel like Hercule Poirot would join the dinner party any moment. Gorgeous!

This gave me some genuine Hollywood chills. 1959. “Some Like It Hot.” Joe E. Brown played the millionaire whose yacht was key to the movie’s plot. And his yacht looked eerily similar. I would buy this outstanding boat and sail past the Hotel del Coronado as often as possible as fitting tribute to a wonderful movie.

[@Marc-uw4lw]

These "Gentleman's" yachts are outstanding, especially in today's world of excess, point-scoring and vulgarity. They're understated, beautifully designed and the emphasis not being on attention seeking but comfort and exceptional style. It's nice to see an alternative to sail yachts. I'm so glad there's still people in the world who appreciate these qualities and go against the superficial grain.

[@meadmaker4525]

The Turkish Gulet-style yachts, with which this vessel clearly shares a lot of DNA, are so much more pleasing to my eye than the homogenous plastic palaces everyone else seems to be building nowadays. Just beautiful. At 100 liters per hour, I couldn't afford the fuel, much less the purchase price, but she looks to be worth every penny. Thanks for the excellent walk through.

[@1destinySS]

I was drawn to this yacht specifically because I was tired of viewing the newer state of the art looks. I longed to see the character and solidly built older yachts. What a pleasant surprise to see a fusion of old style with new technology. I would never have guessed. Well done!

[@captainx5246]

Personally I wouldn't go for the high gloss, but everything else about this little ship is really incredible!

[@Dr.TJ_Eckleburg]

Agreed, the high-gloss wood is absolutely not doing justice to the otherwise exceptional design.

[@johnpro2847]

maybe ..but it certainly looks clean. I guess a matt varnish could be applied.

[@debraschott764]

[@darthkek1953]

Statin vs Gloss is a personal preference. I usually dislike Gloss on "plastic yachts" but on this one I think it works well here. Timelessly nautical.

It was really my first impression, agreed totally. Low gloss natural looking wood. Anyway she is a dream

[@genarocastilla5628]

I’ve been inside hundreds of yachts in my life and seen (youtube) like a thousand, and let me tell you that this is one of the most simple and most beautiful boat I have seen. congratulations on who ever is buying it.

[@thomasw5430]

What an amazing yacht. Considering the age of the yacht, a standing ovation needs to be given to the owner and the crew for keeping it so well kept. There are very few older yachts that I like, I not only like this one, but love it. I for one don’t mind seeing the breather tubes on the deck, and like you I love the railing. It reminded me of the Aristotle Onassis yacht. Sadly not enough pennies in the piggy bank to afford it.

[@davidgeorge000]

Having viewed numerous similar videos i have to say no one does it better. I especially enjoyed the ship layout drawings. No one does that. Crew quarters, laundry and engine room are a must. They aid a lot towards a buyer considering purchasing. Outstanding! The vessel is outstanding as well. Well built, well thought out and designed. A very clean and appealing yatch. The crew mess could be more appealing. Its like eating in the engine room rather than a proper gathering and relaxing space for the crew. It's very important to the crew to have a very nice mess. Thats my only fault with thie vessel. The crew quarters were as nice as I have seen on many super yatchs very important when trying to retain talented crew.

[@crowdog56]

She's a real beauty. I'm completely impressed at how immaculate she is both inside and out. Beautiful woodwork and varnish! I especially like, as Mr. Seal points out, that there aren't a lot of fancy gizmos or decor to worry about; she's just a solid sea worthy boat that looks to be as comfortable and safe as one could want. If I had the quid and was in the market she'd be hard to resist buying.

[@michelfortier9563]

You can tell this yacht is meticulously maintained! Kudos to an owner who keeps up on a beautiful boat like this. It's a class act.....

[@riccixjean]

[@carldevries9108]

A modern yacht with a classical look. Gorgeous. This appeals to me far more than an ultramodern yacht with all the bells and whistles. To me "Olde Salt' just shouts calm and relaxing. Sinan Ozar, you outdid yourself. You should be very proud of yourself.

[@melanie7781]

Probably one of the most beautiful and tastefully done classic looking yacht I have ever seen. I was happy to see very nice crew quarters too.

[@lancegiammanco1251]

Superb presentation. It is refreshing to see a rare combination of classy and sophisticated knowledge in yacht presentations these days. Usually they are youngsters whose demeanor is in keeping with the outlandish radical and “ change for change sake” designed vessels they represent. This stately lady was well represented. As for this wonderful vessel, she was ( I think) created as a timeless escape to take her owner to a simpler yet more elegant time for real sailors who love the sea. She does not compete with the primal attraction of the oceans and shores... but rather she compliments that emotion wonderfully. And so, she is quite well named. I confess to being a kindred spirit and my boat is a 65 Hattaras named “Seadog.” I am not a young man and grew up in Miami... so I have a long time addition to sport fishing. We’re I ever to venture back into larger yachts again for distance cruising .... you would already have had a call from me. Sorry for the long winded dissertation but this unique yacht moved me. She will sell quickly to an old sailor!

[@zaccb1566]

I'm so glad someone is showing fine art on here. When I think houseboat, this is what I see. Stunning.

[@neddludd6076]

Very good presentation of a stately vessel! I worked as a registered nurse for 43 years now retired for 10 years. Needless to say my wife and I did not earn enough to go beyond a canoe with a electric trilling motor. Staterooms on land in a tent. My imagination is rather limited but I do appreciate a clean plan that is well maintained.

[@cwhite9176]

More builders really need to bring this classic style of yacht back today. Absolutely stunning and timeless.

[@9VARZ]

There is just so much character and honesty about this one! Love her to bits! ❤️❤️ Her next owners are very fortunate indeed!

[@animistchannel2983]

Great video, and I think you covered the aesthetic well. I love the uncluttered, wide, round feel of the spaces on this boat. Too many designs try to cram too many... well, just too many things into a square foot of boat to try to tick every imaginable check-box. You're on a pleasure boat, supposedly trying to relax. You need to be doing that instead of juggling 50 busy features per room. They end up feeling like a gilded rat maze, pushy and constraining. This one gives you the chance to take a fresh breath, even take a step sideways if you like, stretch out and properly let go. It also reminds me somehow of the Allseas 92 explorers, which are based on classic harsh-weather steel fishing boats. If you ever get a chance to tour one of those, by all means avail yourself. They are similarly homelike, comfortably sturdy, and confidently welcoming long rangers. Victoria and Rico over on the Nautistyle channel got to do an hour-long 2-part review of one, and it was as amazing as it was classic.
