- This beautiful Trimaran Sailboat Sank will it be a total loss it got caught on the rocks for 12 hours rocking back and forth until the tide came in! Lots of damage to the hull and standing water inside. The center hull the water was about 4-5 deep which ruined all the interior and the electrical components to include engine and generator. Waiting on the Structural Engineer to come to give us his assessment!

Can we SAVE this beauty or will it be a Total Loss ..... ? This one is a bit of a mess compared to this Regal 2022 Center Console that completely sank ruclips.net/video/VATiOKZL4fM/видео.html
Oh baby you make me cry 😢😢😢. I feel for you and your to our owners💔
I know it’s pretty sad when people have these kinds of situations!
What a tragedy. A boat like this is not just a boat, but someone's floating home, maybe even a little family home.
Exactly … in complete shock! Very sad …. Thanks for sharing!
You know boats take on their own souls. They become a part of you. So sad to see this
@@helms5hieldmaiden yes it’s very unfortunate!
I’ve hauled a neel and was not at all impressed with the structure of the hull. This would be a 400k refurb I’d imagine!! a structure engineer would probably never approve fixing this mess
Thanks for watching appreciate the feedback! Recognize you 😆 we know Jason loves you on Rescue Rebuild! Your ears must of been ringing I mentioned you to Matt last night 👍 if you make it down our way let us know! Your right it’s a total loss … that video is coming out this Sunday.
I have not been on a Neel, but the Ruby Rose tour makes a statement, Gone with the Wynn's delivery of a Neel bought and maintained with what appeared to be a completely open checkbook, this and a few other things on the web definitely says Neel is not for me.
Like anything it’s all in what someone likes … Matt’s rule is only buy American if you live in the USA cause trying to get parts out of country is a challenge.
Hi what is the update on this Neel 51 will it be a total Loss , or you are fixing it ??
Thanks for checking in .... video will be coming out soon. It's a total loss too much structural damage.
It’s a pricey fix it’s not just the holes but the unseen stress fractures that may run the length of the hull
Tomorrow be sure to watch our follow up video … it’s a loss!
$25k to re float, load, and bring to marina.
$3k to unload and set.
Guessing, obviously..
The float part your a little close the unload add another $30k.
Is that the Neel 51? That’s my dream boat. I’ll take it. You can stick it in my yard. It’ll make a good little apartment house lol. I am sure somebody lives on inland it would make a good home on land cut through all the red tape.
Yes a Neel 51 …. That’s broken!
@@WillFixThat if it’s broken, why fix it stick it on somebody’s land will make a great land sail hydro generator and just add rain 🌧️ for that fresh water maker collector or Tom Bodett new slogan a clean fresh room, and will leave the sails on for you.
@@waynemitchell7871 great idea too funny!
Forest Gump's Trimaran - Stupid Is as Stupid Does🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
It’s pretty sad mistakes can happen especially in our waters.
@@WillFixThat Marco island is a common anchorage before leaving for the keys in morning daylight. This is a million-dollar trimaran if you're not qualified or confident to sail hire a professional captain there are plenty in Florida. This raises insurance rates for everyone.
@@EdwardTeach-k6d Definitely hire a captain that's familiar with the route you are taking! Much cheaper and a heck of a lot less stress. Agree with you completely!
Why take the GPS chips? Was there a discrepancy as to its location?
They’ll have to check against the captains log to see what really happened. So sad ❤
The insurance company/law enforcement can ask to have the tracks downloaded!
Maybe I should come down to key west and set up shot. Looks like plenty of insurance work down their.
What kind of work do you do?
Supposed to be unsinkable with 6 or 8 dry bays they say! Guess this will be a learning lesson for Neel engineers and Neel owners. underpowered in the high winds.. a very sad event for the owner..
With all the damage to the center it would be hard for anything to float!
I don’t understand how you can drop a million into a boat into waters you don’t know. I bet this happens often.
Boating is living the dream to travel but some waters are tricky if you’re not familiar …. Unfortunately accidents happen!
It's worth more on the bottom, than it is floating on top.
Omg 😱 lol watch this Sundays video continuation.
I spent a night on my in-laws monohull that was aground. It was the worst night I ever spent. Much worse that being at sea in a gale with 50 knot winds and 15 foot seas.
Yikes sounds like a nightmare ... sorry for your trauma!
If you sail long enough you will run into something. I did it in San diego and ran aground on a sand bad. It happens so fast.
I feel for the owner and family. It just takes a second in dangerous waters to run aground.
Exactly…. Happens within seconds!
It looks as though the boat hit the outside reef. Historically, homes built in Key West had a lookout tower to alert them of boats hitting the reef 4 to 5 miles from mainland. This was common prior to maps and Garmin type products. Someone was not paying attention in this instance. I have seen several other million dollars boats on Stock Island who have made the same critical mistake.
This one hit the jetty and got stuck for like 12 hrs! Both the jetty and reef areas do a lot of damage! People make this mistake from time to time in our waters!
Wow what a terrible loss. I am thinking this boat was totaled.
Yes ended up being totaled!
If the cabinets are chipboard then all the cabinets are all toast.
Yes not good quality.
HI ALL
So 25 k to get it off and 5k to crain it on land ?
30k+ get it off - 32k to Crain rough numbers
Just about everything can be fixed but insurance will call that one done. 15 grand to unbeach, 5 grand to put in the cradle.
Yup it can be fixed but it’s a huge long project just trying to get the parts!
Hope he has some good memories, fugetaboutit!
Yup time to move on now!
So how much was it to bring it ashore on the barge and put it on the stands? At least share that much.
Looks like under $200k in fiberglass repairs on the outside to me.
About $30k to bring in … then about $32k to get on stands!
So insurance company wants 62k salvage price...lol
@@gg9960 that’s what the owner paid!
@@WillFixThat That's absolutely insane.
@@RogerWilco1 I know … that’s what we thought.
Well, mono hull versus trimaran, never underestimate how wide that boat is, and how sluggish she is when maneuvering. If you're not sure stay away from cramped channels.
Thanks for sharing …. It’s an unfortunate accident!
Lesson be learned.. use your maps!
Yes especially around here where our water gets shallow fast!
Sounds and looks like it just needs to be taken down to the hull and rebuilt from there.
JUST …. Boy that’s a lot of work … would take months trying to parts from France!
It’s a part out.
For sure.
is that a Neel Trimaran?
I’m not exactly sure I’ll have to ask Matt but it sure looks like it!
@@WillFixThat 👍👍
@@ThoughtfulWander thanks for stopping by today!
@@WillFixThat 👍👍
It’s a 51. Wish I knew the owner
Boat can be fixed and used only as daily charter… no more open blue water for it,
Its going to take some work!
I'm thinking 30,000 to get it where it is now.
Off the rocks is one cost & put on the stands is another cost? Is your $30k for both?
Yes for both.
@@michaellabombard9507 excellent guess …. Your just shy by a few thousand! 👍
if this comes up for sale can let me no.will put bid in.from newzealand. thank you.
We won’t know if it goes up for bid!
What design is that?
I can’t remember…. I’ll have to ask Matt.
It's a Neel
@@WillFixThat a NEEL 51
Looks to be a total loss. Way to much damage.
We had the structural engineer come to make that determination for the insurance company.
@@WillFixThat what’s the response?
@@helms5hieldmaiden Yes its a loss ... more to come on that!
$100,000 to get it off rocks & 75,000 to get it on land.
Thanks for sharing a little high but yes very pricey.
Assuming the structure that holds the hulls together is still solid, I think it will be repaired, probably not in the US, but I think it will float again.
After this video the structural engineer came & it’s toast! 🙃
@@WillFixThat yeah was going to say shes a write off, its not that its not repairable, just the money vs having a not quite as good boat at the end. Also the fact that its a Neel, they are very hit and miss on their quality. It could end up as a long term project for some one
@@richardthomson4693 IMO this boat will be a forever project for someone ... sure hope they know what they are getting themselves into!
It's a balsa core, bro.... with full salt water intrusion on at least 2 of 3 hulls that I saw.
@@thinkcasting3182 The one s I have seen being built were all foam no balsa in the hulls.
That needs to go straight to the bin
Yup you might be right!
Sad
Extremely sad for the owners!
Sounds like everyone is making a crap load of money off this misfortune.
You must be referring to the cost to haul it out and get it off the rocks. The rescue people were there in another boat for 12 hours so he wasn't completely alone just waiting for the tide to come in. A barge and crane had to be used to get it on land.
Total loss. Salvage value now.
Yes exactly!
insuranced too bad
Yup too bad!
Fixable but a lot of blood, sweat and tears if done right will go into it for sure.. and of course money... depends on if the owner does some of the work himself or has the yard or pros do it for him..
Geesh poor guy already had the tears! He was pretty shaken …. Like I say in the end this boat was rock in roll just image! 😬
@@WillFixThat yeah i bet.. sad very sad... :(
Hahaha, 30 days. 😂, let's see if you had a army. Transom, 1 week to cut out.clean up .1 week to build replacement, 1 week to reattach, wild card, dew points for glass, epoxy crew times. Add 2 more weeks, 1, week of long hours to gut her. Everything out. Everything layed out to fresh water flush, and dry, then see what has to be new.
Motor 6 weeks complete rebuild. If it ran with a bent shaft, blocks will be cracked.
The skaggs, ripping off (( wow )) whole new lower ends would be cheaper, want to see a time line..and real cost.. the channel sailing dauntless. Bought a sunken 1.5 million cat. She sank in GA. They PAIDED 50k. For a new 1.5 million yacht. With free family labor, a $350 a day coverd ship yard. They had to replace and hand make, 52 foot long, replacement hulls, that cat had both hulls belly's ripped off, and the cat sank filled with mud and sand... with 5 people, working all week for 6 months, they motor her to Fla.
They are still fixing her., and have sunk over a half million in just material cost.
950k, hulls trashed, motors trashed, tramson trashed, all electronics trashed. Needs 100s gutted water tanks fuel tanks.
( wait for it ), 😂😂😂😂😂😂, you'll spend $600.000 for a sailing yacht you could sale for $350.000... labor cost, coverd storage cost, material cost. Add that up, then what est for resale...it a 100% loss. The insurance company only, win. Would be take her apart, and sell off what's on her, motoer, yes do a quick lower 100% replacement, those 2 could make 10k each . Stainless rigging, mast, life raft,. , then try to sell the hull naked. Or, ship it all over seas to viet nam.
Plastic sheets. After it cleaned, have the whole boat rebuilt. Take a new trimaran hull.
Same modle, walk all the parts on to the new hull, and use the trashed boat as the donor. Then your building a all new yacht for half the price.
You have been around this kinda thing for awhile, I can tell from your comment. Not worth getting into IMO. Have you seen the Regal video that sank?
It WAS a 9,000,000 dollar boat.
LOL not 9M - but yes it WAS.
It’s a neel. If it was to be rebuilt chances are the finished job would shit all over the original build quality!.
Hmm I think redoing it would be better quality. You can see more of the damage in the part 2 portion coming out in a few weeks.
Doable. Big job - hull cores to be dried, re-templated and rebuilt, elecs replaced, likely engine as well (if it went under), prop replaced, interior re-finished THEN need to check the rig, etc. A solid 2-3 years of work for the right person but certainly less than the million dollar asking price.
Agree very big project! Everything you said needs replace. We didn't do a rigging inspection we didn't get that far!
@@WillFixThat I’d be surprised if it needed one. Trimarans - esp Neels with solid bridgedecks - are very strong vessels and the damage to this one is via water intrusion, rather than a hurricane (for example) where the risk of flipping is huge. Of course a prospective buyer should have the whole boat checked first by a multihull surveyor as bashing against a jetty overnight won’t have done the boat many favours.
In saying all that, could be a very interesting project. Any thoughts where the insurer might advertise the wreck once they’ve completed their paperwork?
@@PN_48 no favors for that overnight ride! It's ugly we'll show more in a few weeks. We have no idea about the status of the vessel our job is complete.
Dauntless bought a Leopard 50 with about 30% of both hulls below the waterline smashed and rebuilt it. Get that engine emptied out and fill it to the top with diesel asap the rest is just big fiberglass repairs. She could be good in as little as 3 months.
@@jackdbur For sure - I’m thinking 2-3 years for someone who’s rebuilding in their spare time. Put a crew on it and they’ll knock it out quick smart. The interior will be a bit of a pain but a sparky could be rewiring while the GRP work is going on. The rest of the interior replacement can then be done in-water.
50k to 75k to retrieve boat! 20k to dry dock it! The boat is junk
Your pretty close just a little over …. It’s in rough condition!
you need 20 gal. of gasoline and a match
LOL that would do the job!
Why does the owner not even bother to clean up inside?
Honestly I think shock with it being such a surreal experience. We cleaned it up a bit a few days after.
Hate to say it but that boat is junk. Way to much damage.
It definitely has a lot of damage! It was a pretty sad 😢 Saturday morning!
crazy to think that a person like me who would love a cat or trimaran but can't afford one and then some rich dumb idiot buys one and does not look after it properly makes me sick
This was a complete accident and it happens to a few boats a year on that jetty!
@@WillFixThat you do talk a load of bull if happens to few boats then obviously the jetty not safe for purpose then why moor such a nice boat there , oh let me guess insurance premiums was sky high
@@gatecrasher1970 I'm sorry have no idea what you're talking about ... we are not talking a load of bull! We don't control the jetty that is northwest of Key West in the Gulf.... it shows on GPS!
I.ll buy for $50,000 no more.
Might be worth $50k in parts.
$7,000 to get it off rocks. $1,500 to put on land
Omg Scott you believe almost x 7 more 👀
Sea tow is expensive it was more?.
Total loss of a Neel 51.
Yes … it’s a mess.
total loss
Maybe 🤔 lots going on with this mess!
At a conservative estimate I’d put the cost of recovery, lift out and repair easily at $250k that things toast
Yes follow up video came out yesterday!
Much more
Strip it down to parts, and then cut up the rest..
We will see that may happen!
