Just the perfect series of fun on the sea with SB2! During the worst year in most of our living memories, you have bought rays of sunshine and fun into our screens and made things that little bit more bearable!!! Thank you! Looking forward to more tours and more fun over the coming weeks and years. If you want a change of pace when things improve, you’re welcome to fly with me in my PA 28 Arrow at 125kts around North London, Herts, Northants and across to Southend or down to the Isle of Wight.
Went sight seeing in Torquay yesterday, number 1 on the itinerary was getting a glimpse of Smuggler's Blues 2 moored up, which I did! Show's my degree in Geography wasn't a total waste of time 😉
Long time watcher, first time poster. Your videos bring back so many great memories of when my dad took me out to boat on freshwater dams with his friends. Obviously the boat was a lot smaller with a single outboard (I believe it was either a 40hp or 60hp mariner, was 30 years ago!). I remember we had to wash the boat after every outing, service the motor, mix the gasoline and oil etc etc. It was amazing. Thank you for all that you do. Also a small suggestion for future boat tours. Invest in a small drone and do some beauty shots (if the marina allows these things, i wouldnt know), it would add a value most certainly!
Yes Nick! A famous boat guy like you deserve a bigger boat. Your RUclips channel has grown considerable, I have no idea what kind of money this might generate, but is there any possibility/plans for a Smuggler's Blues 3? Surely one of the boat makers are willing to give you a generous discount, the way you would show it off here in front of 200k subscribers.
Jens Peter Simonsen Thats so true. There are no money in RUclips, they are stealing all The money to them self (Google) The way to make money on RUclips are true sponsors.
What an awesome way to spend the day... Good Friends, Good Dependable (and quick enough) Vessel and a Great Lady on your side... what a happy life you live. 👍 Thank you SO much for sharing it with the rest of us. 😁
We Victorians have been in lock down for 2 months, with another 6 weeks to go here in Australia. Watch this video and “the mind is free to go wherever it wants and certainly not locked down”. Awesome and made my curfewed day Nick !!! All the very best to more of these!!
It was your walk through tours that hooked me on this channel Nick, but I never fail to enjoy every video you post. You and the Old Sea Dog are the best boating youtubers. Thank you for making us feel like we’re there with you.
What great fun Nick! You summed it up in one word “Awesome”. Great to see yourself, Marianne and your friends having such fun in a beautiful location with good weather. Goes to show you don’t need to be a multi millionaire to enjoy the 75% of our surface. Love all of the yachts/boats. If I ever have the good fortune to own one, I will have to pay you a visit and thank you in person for giving me a love of boating !
Great video as always Nick,shows the real the pleasure of boating and sharing the experience with your friends. I was lucky enough to see that Spirit P70 on the Hamble yesterday. Pictures and videos, with all the best will in the world, just don't do her justice. Just a stunning craft I was soo pleased and grateful to see on the water in the flesh.
What a great way to spend a day. Out and about with your friends. Cruising along eating and drinking your favorites. Hope you had a wonderful day Nick and Maryann. Love from Canada. Hope you get to come here soon to see our Vancover yachts.
Hello from Brazil. You represent our Love of boating. Congratulations more videos like This. This is our passion, This is the way. The type or how many feets your boat has, doesn't metters
Excellent video 🤗 It always comes in handy when there are other boats around that can supply b roll footage of the own boat from a distance 😁 love your music selection!
These boating videos on the channel are the best and most satisfying videos on youtube. Cant imagine how you could make them better. And “how cool is that“ we can see these fantastic experience and fun you have on the water. PERFECT!
What an end to a beautiful day's boating, relaxing in a beautiful little harbour with fish & chips and a glass of wine watching the sun going down, perfect!
Thanks for sharing such a fantastic day on board Smuggler's Blues 2. I really look forward to all your videos but especially enjoy the ones when you are at sea or doing a walking tour of your home area. Of course I also really like the boat tours too. It is so nice especially this year to have positive happy videos to watch.
What a day boy! Being in quarantine here in Mexico and watching you enjoying your day is absolutely fantastic! This is what life is about: Just moments. Some day and somehow I will post something like this video... meanwhile, have fun!
One day it will be interesting to see you cook on the boat Nick, excellent video, the boat you said it is beautiful, Jack done a walk through and it is an amazing boat
Another fun packed boating video.. Thoroughly enjoyed it Nick.. Wish our boat was moored up down south, we spent last week wombling around Torbay in the camper, what an amazing place.. :-)
Brilliant!watching your adventures, making me want to take my boat out to sea ,but for now stay on the Norfolk broads, keep smiling and happy boating 🤠
the devon tourist board should be definitely one of your sponsors, too, since you are presenting your paradise spots in an excellent way for free until now! Greetings from Lake Lucerne, Switzerland!
Great video as usual, love your style of video making. Now I just need to get myself a boat for adventures like this, thanks for sharing, I love your super yacht tours but these show the true fun of boating.
Another wonderful video Nick with a fantastic cast!! Thank you for giving us this uplifting content during some not so uplifting times! CHEERS from Prince Edward Island, Canada!
I think that what I envy the most is your location. You live in a lovely part of the world, with beautiful places on your doorstep. We live in the North East, which we love, but our weather is not as good as yours for most of the year.
Hey Nick and Marrianne another great video i really didn't want it to end it almost felt like we were right there with you, Please keep making videos of days out and of the boats, houses and anything else you want because they are a treat to watch. PS I love the edit when Smugglers Blues zooms by at sea
Just moved to Brixham, and will certainly be giving the Breakwater breakfast a go! Unfortunately I will be sitting on the beach, not a boat! Awesome to see my local area from the sea rather than from shore!
Hi Nick, Marianne and friends. Awesome trip, some slow-mo wave clips for future vids. Jack MBY did a tour Spirit 70, can't wait for yours. Calm seas never made a smooth sailor, the mooring was worth it. Great video thanks.
I'm jealous of the wonderful trip. I would like to be with you. but instead I can enjoy this video. I've seen the video where they show the boat you're talking about. the newly built Spirit P 70 it's impressive, but also a bit old-fashioned in appearance. but hey, we all have different tastes. but nice, it certainly is. Nick. Thanks for some great videos with Smugglers Blues 2. I really enjoyed them.
Enjoyed your film my dad as a 27ft yacht Called Merlin been with him this year. Based at Glasson Sailing club and we Sailed to Piel Island near Barrow in Furness then up to Whitehaven for a few days then to Ravenglass for a few days then back to Glasson. Was a brilliant holiday xx but enjoying your Adventures
Just loved that video Nick. The last time we entered the dart was 11.45 pm after leaving Weymouth in choppy seas. It took a loooooong time to get there. Since then I have had non stop work, and I can say I’m fe pd up already. The need to go boating is strong. One more week of slogging it out then a long weekend.
Greatly enjoyed this video Nick. I think that the boat you referred to was on MBY, they had a sea trial on it. look forward to you getting a tour too.🚤🚤🚤
Hello Nick, thanks for all the great videos. Always looking forward to seeing something new and interesting. So... now we've seen the old steam boat a few times in the background. How about a full tour of that? Engine room and all! :)
Well, your conclusion says it all: Awesome! Best video so far, anyone claiming they're not up for boating after this is probably dead. Such beauty in the river Dart! Housings, environment, boats... so much to look at. Wonder what's behind the next bend? And the next? If you'd feel like doing a longer run up the river, I'm here for it.
Wow, what a refreshing, calming, relaxing way🌞🌊 to start my Sunday morning here in Illinois (USA) watching this wonderful video!!💙I love watching your tours. What city is that? It's gorgeous!! I hope to visit there one day on a boat!⛵⚓ You & your wife are so very blessed! Thank you!! In a world like it is today, this is sooo REFRESHING!!!⛵🌊🌊🌊I really loved that last song played, "Better late than never". Just perfect.💙
Hi ,it,s been on YT by MBY I think ? another fine trip for the flotilla of boats and friends ,waves sun and sea and lunch,what more could you want .a relaxing trip ,thanks to all .
Nick driving a 30 k pound boat saying "SIMPLE PLEASURES" , yes I knew what you meant Nick, it is so much fun driving around on the water ,exploring places with a few friends. I should never have sold my boat, oh well.
Hey Nick, don’t know if you already have but how about a video of what you do what you have had a day out on the boat. Pretty sure you don’t just pull in and leave it. Do you need to wash down etc. Thanks
What do you think of Arla's Dairy ANCHOR butter from Newberry Wiltshire Farms? When I was filming for a Celtic Cooking show we went to a dairy farm and filmed several parts of the process of butter and cheese making. The same woman has owned the farm for over 40 years and still milks her cows! It was a great tour of Ireland, Northern Ireland and Scotland!!! Lovely people!!! Thanks for an awesome video!!!
The wooden boat you saw was the Spirit P70. I believe it is British built and is absolutely fantastic with a price to match!! It's previewed on youtube.

Aquaholic tours the crew cabin and engine room, but no hi-lo platform on the Arrow.
Thank Maryanne and Nick... Stunning harbor and accompanying music.... great job editing!

Awesome! 😄
Surely it’s the number 1 tourist attraction in Torquay 😃
@@carldowningphoto First I want to see where my dad and mom had their honeymoon in Torquay, then it's Smuggler's Blues 2 ;)
I think your one word near the end there sums it all up. Awesome

I can just see you in a Princess 42 Smugglers blues 3 in that great lumpy weather and laying the throttle down yee ha.

Another fun packed boating video.. Thoroughly enjoyed it Nick..
Wish our boat was moored up down south, we spent last week wombling around Torbay in the camper, what an amazing place.. :-)
What lucky people you are!!! Looks absolutely amazing. Nearest I can get is the local canal. Have a great day!
Thank you! You too!
Nick a question. Is that the end then of the season? Do you start arranging taking Smugglers out of the water, service, maintenance etc....?
@@kieranharriman7055 It will come out of the water next month for the winter.
Great video as always! And 25 minutes holiday with you....
Brilliant!watching your adventures, making me want to take my boat out to sea ,but for now stay on the Norfolk broads, keep smiling and happy boating 🤠
