Looks like you're in Sanremo? That gold yacht is the delicious "Khalilah" the all carbon 49m Palmer Johnson SuperSport I last parked next to her in the Aeolian's...I believe she's still seeking a new owner...? Good vid keep em comin'
Hi man! Nice maneuvering 👍 And great radio dialogs in frames. The best way to understand natural English communication. Thanks my friend! Please continue
The precision, teamwork and skills of the crew is exceplary. I wouldn't expect anything less from any of you. On a personal note, it kinda reminds me of trying to maneuver my huge power wheelchair through a standard doorway. I literally have 2cm on either side of clearance. Come in at any angle and I'm stuck or damage either the doorframe or my chair. I've done both, not fun.
Thanks @SailorYuki. I once had to measure up all the gangways, doorways, and corridors on a yacht to see if someone in a wheelchair would be able to come on board. It was tight, but there was just enough room.
@@WorkonaSuperyacht manual wheelchairs are much smaller than the motorised ones. I have the fortune of being able to walk, so if I ever find myself onboard a yacht, my wheelchair won't be an issue.
Matthew, loved this video. This was great, seeing you in your environment, not just talking about it but actually doing and explaining either verbally or in text box format, very useful, loved it. If you are able to do more of these types of videos, that would definitely by great. Nice to have you back, you seem comfortable.
Great video, thanks. How does the deck hand estimate the distance to various things? Is he just guessing, or using a scope of some sort to estimate distances?
Thanks for commenting. It's just an estimate, but on some larger yachts (and ships) they use a tool for greater accuracy. Even if the numbers aren't exact, the rate at which they are decreasing is important because it gives the captain a good idea of the speed at which we are approaching an object or obstruction.
Matthew, that was a nail biting experience for me just to watch that Mediterranean docking! Everybody has to know exactly what they are doing because there is no margin of error, expensive yachts on both sides that could get damaged, plus the one that you are on. Thank you so much for this!
Thanks for commenting. I've made lots of videos about how to get started in yachting, so please check out the rest of the channel. In particular, I recommend watching this one: ruclips.net/video/CTFYzlqaNZk/видео.html
Well now I know what yacht you are on. No I'm not saying it on here. You covered it up for a reason. A 40M was the second yacht I ever worked on. The owner stayed on it once and said yachting was not for him and promptly sold it. Didn't want to charter it. Nothing. Said it was rougher than he liked. He liked to relax and not worry about being flung overboard amd eaten by a shark. He was from the same country that yacht you're on was made in. Well best of luck Mat. I hope she is good to you.

Oh Khalilah. That gold boat. Lol.
Matt! Nice to see you back on the water and doing this videos again!
Very clear and professional!

Thanks Frank! 😊 I shall definitely try to do more like this. I just did my job, and the video made itself! 😃

Good to see you back in action! Love the videos, keep them coming.
Nice to see a captain slow the boat when you call the boat rolling fenders. My captain would sometimes do the opposite! Haha😅
😅
Great video! Very nice to see the caption of the positions reported.
Amazing!
Great video mate, I also really appreciate the captioning of the radio calls, really informative to watch for a young deckhand like me.
Great video, do u have any videos on what”exactly” to do pre-departure in engine room, and upon return? Much appreciated!
great concept can't Wait to see more
thank you so much for sharing that kind of work.
👍✅ Tks Matt!

Thanks Clif. I really appreciate your discretion. You're right that this size range is a very different experience to much bigger steel hulled yachts.
And i will be waiting for emergency steering test’s video
The guy on the quay didn't dip the eye.
Well spotted!
What's the emblem on the Red Duster - can't make out but must be a yacht club..
