So good to see Aussie builds,bringing state of the art manufacturing back to our shores.Congrats CURE we are all behind you.Ross
That is awesome! This is EXACTLY what I had in mind when I saw the first boat 3D print from 4 years ago. Would be amazing to see one, with rooms, conduits for electricity and water-pipes, outside benches and any other structures such as pivots or mounting points for solar panels, already in place. You could even make your own custom build boat/catamaran designs!
Amazing owners are so reluctant to show their boats that are after all FOR SALE. Especially with youtubers like you guys. What are they so afraid of? So cool to see the future of boat building with your tour of Cure. Your videos are always so informative.
Loved the video! 3D printing plastic is actually how I paid for our catamaran, definitely the present and future of manufacturing. Don't be fooled by the outboard helms after day that was a perfect afternoon for a sail! Ask to go back out again on a day when it is raining sideways, blowing 30 knots and you are needing to hand steer while surfing down 2-3 meter waves. Yep, autopilots never break lol.
I am loving these journalistic episodes. Your documentary film making is a joy to watch.
You guys were on an amazing boat that was built by a company that has up to date construction processes that helps keep the price at a reasonable price point. I feel you guys have found the builder that will provide you with exactly what you have been searching for!!
Yeh, really nice boat. If we had another million to spend, we'd definitely give Cure a shot!
If you'll excuse the pun - If you've got the (boat) fever, they've got ... THE CURE ! Keep that original music coming ! Awesome episode and thank you again !
Not sure how I missed this one until today, but I LOVED THIS MOVIE. I can't believe how cool cure marine is.
On the tech side, this was a monumental video. One of the best yet. I would give this 5 of 5 stars on RUclips University. You guys are GREAT !!!!!
What an adventure and experience. You’re truly in your element! Great video too! ❤
Very cool, thanks for keeping us up to date on the latest boat building tech! It was interesting.
Awesome to see you guys out in the wind and happy!!
Well done video, O'Kelly's! Informative and wise.
My wife and I love you guys! Looking for a boat like we will be doing soon (hopefully) adding all your valuable insights is really worth its weight in gold. Thank you!! Stay safe frens :)
The look on Nick's face while he was at the helm. Missing sailing much?? ;-)
Great episode very educational and soothing as well being out there on the water with ya! Love the adventure keep up the great work!
Great video. The music. The quiet moments. The narration is so…smooth. I’ve been pricing boats too. Trying to decide on speed vs comfort issue. And then it all came together. Something set in. Yeah that’s right…Reality!!
You guys are pioneering the future. Absolutely brilliant design, and it proved itself.
Wonderful and informative episode. Your filming/production quality is knocking it out of the park. 100,000 Subs is just around the corner! Keep up the awesome work!
100,000 subs! Wow that's a lot of people! Thank you for the kind words!
I do love a Schionning. It's on the top of my list while I'm boat shopping. A boat like Zero is waaaay outside of my budget though.
Great video guys. Thanks for coming to Australia. If you're coming to The Kimberly's in Western Australia, let me know
What a great episode, you guys are nailing the content and production
What a great and informative episode! Cure Marine blew my mind as well. Wow!
Oh my gosh, watching Zero slip past the other boats at speed was incredible. Nobody chasing sheets, nobody cranking on winches…the owner just casually presses a button and adjusts the sail from the helm. That’s about as close to sailing a Laser as you can get, only your guests are sipping cocktails as you win the regatta, the boat isn’t heeled over, and nobody is getting wet. The hulls just cut the water like a razor.
That is all fine and dandy near major boating centers like Brisbane. But make no mistake about it Mate....if something goes sideways on ya far offshore and away from major marine centers....you no longer have a sailboat...now ya got a motorized cat. Do I love the concept? Absolutely love it...me nipples are hard just looking at Zero.
Without question - this is the most exciting episode I have seen yet on the sailing channels I follow. Not just on the O'Kelly's sailing channel. On ALL of them. And I follow a lot of sailing channels. Perhaps for the first time I wish I was much younger, so I could see where all of this goes. No regrets mind you. Regrets are a waste of energy. But the next twenty years and beyond are going to be truly mind blowing. The 3D printing tech applied to industry is going to change everything - from boats to other vehicles to living spaces to food production to anything else you can think of that is manufactured or built in some manner. Damn, I would love to be in the middle of all that.
Awesome video!! Loved the 3D printing factory tour and seeing the tech. The Schionning was a beautiful boat! It would have been great to get a tour of it as well. If that’s possible can you do a follow up with them?
Great content as always.
Great fun sharing your adventure in finding that perfect boat. The journey is interesting. Informative and finger biting too. Sure find that boat but, given the fun of searching, take your time 😊
Our economy was hollowed out in the 80’s with the move of production to south east Asia so we consumers could have cheaper prices. It has been said that technology will start to bring that back home with the added advantage of strong environmental laws and a social wage. Well done for show casing what the future looks like and welcome to Australia. I sincerely hope you have a great time.
Awesome. I love 3d printing technology. I have many 3d printers and I love the ability to make almost anything I want. I also own a 3d scanner so it works hand and hand with the printer. They even have 3d concrete printers.
FASCINATING video... Beautifully Produced 💪❤ Thank you 🙏
Aussies again at the forefront of innovation in many industries, so bloody proud to be Australian 🇦🇺🌈👍
Insightful, I like your approach
I love your insight on life/sailing/wisdom. Also love the 3D printing. I need to upscale mine a little lol
You continue to raise the bar. What incredible content.
Learning from such GENEROUS people....thanks!
Really enjoyed this one - well done again you two!
Thanks for the great insight into what is going on in the boat-building world. Who would have thunk they would be C&C'ing boats. Pretty amazing and as always, love your take on what is going on in the sailing world.
Excellent episode, forward looking and thought provoking. Sailing is simple at its core, these race boats exemplify that, we cruisers forget it sometimes
Love it O'Kelly's,,,,,, I think you are close to your next boat.
Great vid, very informative,thanks
Excellent episode. Thank you. Before retiring, I spent a professional lifetime balancing automation versus cheap labor. There is absolutely no doubt: Products made in Western countries, using automation, are a MUCH higher quality than products made in Third World or developing countries using manual labor. They are also more sophisticated and up-to-date. The one problem: The up front capital cost of setting up the automated production systems is really high. So, the investment required to set up an automated facility in a developed country is MUCH MUCH higher than setting up a basic facility in a less developed country; which is why you see so many boat builders in Asia and South Africa. One comment caught my attention: Cure Marine can quickly redesign and recycle molds. That is in complete contrast to many catamaran manufacturers who are using 20 year old molds and everything is done by hand.
Great video - very informative
Fascinating. Wish you the best in finding your new on the water home. Still love your videos
Thank you for the vid, loved the schionning part
Coincidently Cure Catamarans popped up in my social feeds this morning and I was noodling around the web trying to find a price when your video popped up! I love the tech and the accuracy. The price remains the stumbling block 😭. I hope that with all the automation starting to enter the boat building industry, prices will drop to a more affordable level.
The boat works is a spectacular place, did you get to see Tony’s Schionning “Kato”. That is a work of art.🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🇦🇺
Maybe it's still in Hervey Bay??
Hi Guys, welcome to Queensland. We live on the water in Redcliffe. Another great sailing area. Love the video.
Popped over to your friends...thanks for the mention.
I love meeting the people that you are meeting! So cool to learn about all the new technology and boat making methods. Wow. What about that helm on zero and push a button to make any sail adjustments!!!!
Welcome to Oz you two. It's a great place, as you will learn. Of course I'm not biased, much!
How did I miss this one? Only just seen it now as a youtube suggestion. Looks like I was not getting the notifications.
Very interesting. I'm going to be looking for a 55' performance cruising cat in soon (seems like it keeps getting pushed back as I've been looking for almost 2 years now).
Manufactured in Australia, ouch. It's great in one way, I live in Australia, but production costs in Australia are as 'Expensive as hell' (at least generally).
Very interesting, thank you for the video and information. I'm off to go check them out. :)
Just AMAZING!
That was incredibly cool
Thanks for the shoutout! Another cracker of a video 👏
Great video. Love your channel.
Excellent!
Good video. Thx.
😊😊😊❤️🇦🇺🇦🇺 from Brisbane. Love your story. Love your attitude keep looking for your perfect boat.
Thanks John. You have a nice little slice of heaven there!
Great seeing you riding the waves again and your faces radiant like kid's in candy shop
Great to walk into the restaurant on this small island and meet you both last evening in person. Hope you enjoyed your meal. I can send you some details of the new drone landing technology I was talking about. Best regards John and Leonie.
It was awesome to meet you two last night, we look forward to seeing your new tech and sharing an anchorage soon! Info at symbol sailclarity dot com.
Thanks for the glimpse into this new technology. Fascinating stuff (feeding my Engineering).
Given all this wonderful experience you're getting (whether you like it or not perhaps), I'd be interested in your current thoughts on the sailing experience one the forward cockpit on an Atlantic cat vs this latest one, and some of the enclosed ones? So many trade-off's and there's nothing like learning from real-world experience.
Great video, guys!
Been looking at the Windelo lately. Your on the wrong side of the world to get a ride but inside helm with views of the sails, etc. Fair Winds 😎
That zero cat is really nice 😊
Nick e' un bello Marinaio! Great video.
❤ Impressive Journalism. It is amazing how long it has taken for production boats to adopt techniques that have been used in aerospace since the 1980s I am surprised the catamaran industry has still not replaced foam core with nomex honeycomb. Take a look at a Force Engineering catamaran from the 90s they used nomex core and look like the LongEz of boats almost like Burt Ruttan designed it.
Closed-cell foam is still buoyant if it is exposed to/submerged in water/leaks. It is also of similar strength in all directions, so it is well-suited to being machined/cut and placed anywhere it is needed. For those who have never handled this type of foam: it is hard like rock or a hardwood, not like the styrene foam used for insulation or packing material, if I recall correctly.
Someone with a 3D printer has invented the lightest strong substance known to man. It is, in effect, 3D-printed foam, but it is open-cell.
One of the revolutions of 3D printing is not only scaling it up, but when they can scale it down to cost-effectively print things like closed-cell foam cells/bubbles. Then some phenomenally light and buoyant materials will be able to be created.
@@exploranator So is Nomex honeycomb plus it is easier to repair and damage is isolated, it is lighter, fireproof and depending on the skins used can even be bulletproof.
The US Navy has uses it on specialty coastal ships and take a look at Force Engineering Stilleto catamarans.
The weight savings are massive performance gains are unbelievable. I think it may even be cheaper because marine applications are not concerned with number of plugged cells do they can buy aerospace seconds.
It is also easy to machine if you know the tricks (10000 rpm jewelers saw 😀)
You guys do such excellent boat reviews, you should be picking up at least $50K for every sale you deliver to the builder. This will also put you on some nice cats to sail. Endless opportunity, the 72 full carbon Chris Whight cats are $9mil, better get the show on the road!!!! Enjoy the adventure.
I thought you were doing dodgy things with the playback speed. But the *Zero* was actually moving through the water that quickly! Amazing!
lol, no, really that fast!
good video and info you 2
Kids...! A ($$$$$!) beautiful vessel! I saw this 3D printing wonderful watercraft & other structures coming 20, or more years ago & should have invest then... 🙄! You guys are great as always & smartly venturing, highlighting this new marine focused paradigm.
You're doing good though by not pressing for a cat. An old sayin'..., "don't chase the butterfly and soon it will land on your shoulder"...
Fair winds... 🦋 🚈 🌊
Yes I love this
Well, that was a good one! Cure certainly is up to date amd even ahead of the curve. I liked the piece you did of price comparison as I had little idea of what a 55 footer would cost. Outboard helm is great but can it be made weatherproof? I like the HH 55 in that regard. So more food for thought.
Cool Video! made by a very Cool Couple! Hi from Brazil!
Hey Nick,
They never talk about the making of the bulkheads, which is the most important of any boat. It is the rib cage to the spinal cord ( to each keel).
13.5 knots in 14.5 knots of wind! You're making me want a high performance cat!
Very nice boat. My dream
Been a dream to do this
Yass. The Okelly's are going to the Whitsundays!
Not sure how far behind the videos are but December in the Whitsundays can be a bit wet. Fingers crossed you don't get a cyclone.
That Skipper of zero was True blue , bloody hilarious , be a top bloke to sail with , And those blokes at the factory were like Mad scientist Geniuses wow who would have thought of 3d printing a boat . Mad .
I’m up there on the 8th on the seawind 1160… with Whitsundays yacht charter…. You guys must have it before me 😆
Warmed it up for ya! What a beautiful area!
When you state that you can not have both a fully protected helm and full view of the sails for trimming: a new design brand seems to have figured this out. The Windelo 54 which has a full protected inside helm station with full view of both sails for trimming while at the helm. Check it out…lots of video on RUclips. NautiStyle just did an extensive review.
3D printing is undoubtedly the next industrial revolution - it's just getting started. It will alleviate the shrinking labor force so human resources can be allocated to services. Enjoyed your video as always.
Thanks Nick!
Nice ending song.
Brilllllliant as always - I think the southern hemisphere has some anti aging qualities- you guys keep looking younger - must be clarity 😉
You spend most of the time cruising on auto pilot. Having the helm outboard gives you the option to see well when you need it. You adjust the pilot see tye saiks, or enter the dock, then go back to the shade.
Zero is a most awesome boat, awesome build, but like the man says a VERY expensive pursuit, aramid standing rig is great, not so cheap either. there are other alternative that are more cost effective and more durable for those that want a fast cruiser.
Great to see us Aussies are leading the way in boat building! Great to see my current boat in the background at 10:13. Looking to upgrade soon!! Keep up the great work and can’t wait to see what you end up buying!
To Cure Marine: Fascinating! I hope to see you at Annapolis in ‘23 or ‘24
To the shy guy who wouldn’t show off his boat: Cure may get 95k eyes on their boats and some free publicity. Who runs from that..?
I know 🤔 the dude who hasn’t sold his boat yet.
Good luck.
Okay, that was cool
Zero is a very cool looking boat but a bit to large and fancy for me. That fancy adds not only dollars but weight. One of the things I've never seen before was that short silver automatic wench. That little disk is cool. Have you thought about getting an aluminum catamaran? If so, check out Sailing Jupiter and Sailing into Freedom. Sailing into Freedom is having a brand new boat designed for him. The prices are very affordable depending on how you do it. Sailing Jupiter has a most popular play list. Watch the most popular one. They go over the price and build.
Welcome to my part of Oz Mr and Ms Smooth!
lol. Beautiful territory ya got here!
Thankyou 👍
O'Kelly's, loved the film on Zero. Isn't it funny how almost always we see these super expensive boats in the hands of old guys? There is a reason for that. I like your take on that. Maybe you could afford the longeron and ???. Because of your channel you get lots of invites on these boats. But to afford one of these boats takes some serious cash flow. I loved the story of why the boat was named Zero...."it is what i had left in my bank account after buying it." That is some seriously funny rhetoric. Had me chuckling for half a minute.
I don't remember if you saw the For Sale listing of the Trimaran Avalanche a year or so ago? I have lusted after a Chris White design for years. I own a 30 foot Condor Trimaran which is trailerable. I had 3-4 long conversations with the Skipper about the boat. Watched all of his videos on RUclips about his travels on the boat. A seriously fast trimaran with huge off shore capabilities. He was selling it for bargain basement prices...unheard of prices for a 50+ footer in good shape. He is a rather rich man moving on to a HH full on racer/cruiser. He could afford the losses. It was being sold for around 250K. I could barely afford it if my wife divorced me...snicker. During one of our conversations we got around to what condition were the sails in? He talked about why he chose North sales. Talked for 15 minutes or so about offshore and ocean crossings what is required in powerful boats and sail design. So, I asked him how much his mainsail cost. Well, about 2-3 years earlier it had cost him over 80K to replace his old one. Holly Shizzle Batman!! I don't know...but somehow it was like someone snapped their fingers and brought me out of trance. Back into the real world of seriously expensive boats and what they cost not only to purchase...but even more important is what they cost to keep going. Remember the part where the North Sail guy...or a racing dude told the skipper he should have a carbon fiber rig? Everyone wants one...but few can afford that kind of bang for the buck.
Love your search...I thought for sure you were going to buy the Chris White cat.....thanks for leaving for it to me to drool over.
Yes, the high end of this "sport" get's ludicrous. But....I'd like to think that if we had that kind of cash, we'd have a boat like that. The deals do come up every now and again, but it is a Who You Know sort of thing. By the time a boat makes it to the classified ads, a lot of friends and friends of friends have passed.
Thanks!
You are too kind!
Great video! I'm so glad you haven't found your boat yet!
Grrrrrrrrrrrr..... :)
Of course because I’m loving the exploratory content.! I never knew about this boat. It puts my old fashioned Dolphin 460 to shame. I know you’ll come up with a winner but thanks in the meantime.
Eeeeek, your in my neck of the woods. My luck, I’m now in Melbourne trying to get my boat seaworthy
And how does one do that?
Especially in Australia. 😁😉
So many choices. 65+ seems like the best size and that speed! Nice boat. That million dollar bill makes a difference. Still stuck on the garcia explorer.28 knots. What do you think? It's aluminum.
Looks like you guys will be heading the Cure way 🙂
this is a piece of SSSSSSuperb content =D
Wow. Way cool. I lead the change at Boeing where we used similar technology to make the aluminum hulls (fuselages) easier to assemble and less weight. The drop in labor costs were huge. Then Boeing used the same basic technology to do it in carbon prepreg material. Prepreg is lighter than the infusion manufacturing technology, but it takes huge ovens to cure these monsters. Then, because sometimes things don't go well, you have it ultrasonically inspect every inch of every piece. This adds a lot of cost because you end up throwing some of them away. That would up the cost of the boats about 2X. but you get a lighter and stronger boat. I think we may be talking about America's Cup Racing there.
I love seeing the smooth surfaces created by a printed/machined/polished surface. I can do the same exact thing using a mill to smooth the inside of a more traditional wooden mold. It is all about understanding the technology of forms. Boeing did a lot of work on that while I was there. So I get a lot of the problems and solutions. They called it tooling.
As an example: When I started the "tooling design group was about 3000 engineers." When I left, there were zero. Not one. The entire process of tooling had shifted into the CAD system and ever increasing computer aided design automation. All the automation was at different parts of the design-build process. Fascinating to see and be a part of the huge changes. So it was not only at the manufacturing floor.
Great video. Great story. I love the progress I am seeing.
INteresting Roger. Didn't know that. Learning every day!
I am so excited for you if you really have found your boat. Hey is that Jason that was at the factory showing you around Jason Gard?
No, that's Woody, Carl and Tyler
