    Fairline so far had been doing amazing work in the past years. Their boats are built beautifully and well thoughtout. Seems like they are built pretty well, considering the good engineering and design of the hull. This is just another example of their great work.

    Are there any disadvantages to having a seakeeper? Other than the initial cost obviously, any ongoing costs? Maintenance? Loss of space in the engine room? Apologies for what may be a numpty question, I don’t know much about boats but from videos like this I’m slowly learning.

    • @Boatscouk
      @Boatscouk  2 года назад +1

      You lose a bit of space , they take 20 mins to spool 🧵 up - they require an annual service but otherwise they are fantastic and it transforms life onboard - especially at anchor 🍻

    You can't even stand fully upright in the main cabin of a £1m boat? Check out the Galeon 500 or an Absolute 50 that quite literally knocks the burger and chip socks off, of this boat. Not impressed with this one although I hear Danny Devito and Warwick Davis are thinking of going halves on this one.

    • @Boatscouk
      @Boatscouk  2 года назад +4

      😂 - you don’t just buy a boat on headroom. Seakeeping, build quality, ease of use etc are important. Also everything has a cost - High headroom gives higher centre of gravity which equals worse sea keeping. Every boat compromises something to give you something better elsewhere 😊

      @@gordonjohnston684 . I will answer on IPs because the answer is quick. It uses less fuel because there is less friction. There is less friction because the IPs boat is lighter and because more boat is out of the water . A lighter boat that is more out of the water can have less seamanship qualities 😉

    Curious as to when we’ll see a 3 cabin, galley up one…..for an owner operator boat, it seems to me a galley up makes more sense as mom and dad want to be able to keep an eye on the kids!!!!! Also, being both dad and cook I don’t want to be in a hole, while everyone is upstairs and outside….and third, better to keep the smells of cooking upstairs rather than in the cabins….

    No no no and no again. Most boat builders have worked out that you need to move the galley up. Why would you want the cooking smells below when they are easily aired away from the upper deck. On this boat that is why there is so little head room in the cabins. Time to do a rethink Fairline.

    • @Boatscouk
      @Boatscouk  2 года назад

      When boating regularly - some customers find that they are on show when using a galley up boat. For example when you wake up in your pants in the morning and want a cup of tea- you have to quickly run for the curtain / blind. Everything is a compromise.

    Watching this video a day ago, and thinking about the entire walk through. When a customer want's a first time boat. This is no time to let your heart dictate for you, because the boat is shiny.
    Find a guy that is sharp, long time boater. Talk to a few Captain's, pay them well and sit down and talk.
    We're talking serious money here and to have second thoughts in less than a year after buying the boat. I think some of the most sharpest boaters are the passage maker people. I can assure you. Passage makers don't buy a boat because the interior trim is high gloss. These buyers study and study at home for months before laying out serious money. comparing numbers. Come on now.
    A engine room hatch on the back deck. Sooner or later. Salt water along with fresh water will find it's way inside that's a given. Those two tubes for the aft table. It's flimsy and will eventually the tubes will become loser and loser.
    After riding my push bike across the continent of Australia twice. I feel that I can offer some new riders advice and hopefully save lots of money on equipment before setting off. This should hold true with people new to boating.

    I know very little about boats, only what's on RUclips, but this one looks like a poor choice to me, compared with Galeon 640, for example. Yes, the Galeon is around £1.5m, but it's 3 times the boat. Galeon 500 is close in price and way superior, inside and out.

    • @Boatscouk
