Love your videos cant get enough of them when I get enough I want the 145 explorer, the walkthrough you did with Alexi was brilliant (as is all your walkthroughs) oh yeah and Rico you do an excellent job on the videos 😉
That was neat to see about the paint and hull coating. Love seeing Alexie talk about his boats. Lot of passion and pride for his and the build crew's work there.
I can’t believe the 20 minute video went by so quickly and now I have to wait a week for part 2… lol. I could listen to Alexie talk about his building philosophies for hours. Excited for “future me” to be able to watch your entire boat build playlist from start to end! Here’s to a wonderful 2023 for you guys!
I have to say that you guys and Alexi make a damn good team.....every time he speaks about boat building I check my lottery numbers (even if I know they haven't won) and starting configuring my Bering 145 in my head. It's a testament to you guys and Alexi that I have went down this rabbit hole, because the first yacht video I ever watched, at all, EVER, was the one you guys did on the Bering 77 with Alexi. So now Bering has a special place in my heart thanks to you guys! And Happy New Year!!
Ha ha, me too. I’ve learnt so much in last year about boat building and different kinds of boats, or ships I should say. I’d be very happy with a Bering
Professor Alexei did a great job of addressing the science of choosing the proper material for the hull of your boat. What a wonderful learning experience!!! Thank you. ♥️💞🙏
Love seeing the geekier side of boat building! At first I was a little surprised when Alexei said they didn't apply fairing material below the waterline. Then I realized, these are full displacement hulls, they don't NEED a super smooth bottom the way a planing or other "go-fast" hull does. Best wishes for the New Year Victoria, Rico and Alexei! May it be better than the last!
I'm a retired engineer and worked my way through college working in a sheetmetal shop in the summer and welded aluminum. I learned that welds on aluminum strength depends on the filler rod/wire alloy and the base metal alloy. Unfortunately 4043 filler alloy is a little too standard, for a boat I was consulted and told them to use 5000/6060 series sheet and to weld all hull and superstructure with 5053 wire or rod for mig/tig welds. 5053 alloy has titanium in it as well as Al-Mg and welders need a short class on its properties and weld requirements, but I guarantee if a weld is destruction tested the weld won't be the breaking point, but next to it will be as the weld changes the temper of the base aluminum. Still stronger than using 4043 though.
With the right filler rod you can gain the strength to the Alu weld, but the only way to equalize weld and sheet strentgh is to bake it in an oven, which is possible for small items like bikes not so for the ship.
@@altergreenhorn Exactly, I was asked about tig welds showing up on anodized parts where they even used the base metal for filler, but the weld always shows up. Baking doesn't help that. I told them to anodize them black as it is really the only option besides just living with it.
Special thank you of course to Alexie for caring enough to BUILD a world class boat/ship. And this has to be mentioned, a Very Special thank you to Rico and Victoria for showing the world here on RUclips, how this is done, why this is done, and why It Should Be Done for value and safety. God Bless to All, Happy and Safe New Year!!!!
The display of hull steel with different surface coatings is excellent. The interview was good, and the foreman was expert and explained the project really well. It was an excellent presentation, and described the work perfectly.
Alexi is just sooooo knowledgeable - mesmerizing almost listening to him explain the intricacies of the processes in layman's terms. As good as his product is I think he personally is the best advert for the Bering brand. Very much enjoyed. And I hope he enjoys the free champagne😂
As someone who has been polishing cars, airplanes, and boats for 50+ years i found this fascinating. The way it was explained, and the process, it made perfect sense. This process is certainly expensive but way worth it in the long run.
Happy new year guys all the best for the year. Always a pleasure to see Alexie and it's wonderful that he takes time to do these walkthrough with you guys.
He is one cool boat builder. Love is down to earth attitude the world needs more people like him. Great video as usual you people do a super job RUclips must be paying well to afford a new bearing yacht. But congratulations.
SO proud of you two to be doing what I’ve always dreamed of doing. AND to be able to be there while the yacht is being built is truly special. Alexei is truly a gentleman to allow you such great access to his facilities. He reminds me of an uncle of mine. In 1990 when I got out of the Navy, I bought my fathers 50’ aluminum hulled cruiser and lived on it for a couple of years. Best time of my life. Even had it hauled and did my own hull painting which is completely different than steel. But I enjoyed every minute ofit. I raise a glass of wine to the new year and to you two and Alexei. I hope to charter from you one day. Keep doing what you’re doing…it’s awesome!
How nice to give me the Christmas present of episode 5 on the new boat build! I am fascinated on what goes into this! I am also interested in how many things on your new boat list you will be able to incorporate in this boat! I am certain you will have a priority list! It's almost a curse to preview so many boats and get so many ideas from them for your new boat! But a good problem to have!😂
Absolutely love love love Alexi, his open, honest and enthusiastic descriptions are so refreshing. Answering all the questions I would ever have and more, why would you chose any other material for your beloved explorer than steel ???? It just makes sense. Waiting impatiently for the next “geeky” episode. BRING IT !
4:40 an important point to make: this is ONLY true for marine-grade aluminum. The type of filler rod you use for marine welding is different. This doesn't apply to regular automotive sheetmetal because the thickness is different, for one thing, but also the alloys used have drastically different properties.
There was an older 52.76m or 173-foot steel hull yacht named VIXIT that ran up onto a coral reef in Mexico about 10 months ago, and they hit it really hard. I don't know how fast they were going but it was fast enough that the entire yacht was up on the reef, and it damaged the hull pretty bad, but it only dented it, and it wasn't taking on any water, and they got the yacht off the reef and towed it to a shipyard. And I'm into steel hulls for that very reason. If that yacht had been fiberglass or aluminum it would have ripped major holes in the hull and taken on water and needed a much different and very difficult rescue operation in order to get it back to a shipyard for repairs. Knowing you have a good steel hull can help put your mind at ease.
As long as one is talking displacement vessels, the advantages of steel become increasingly obvious the larger one goes. At 50+ meters, it would be hard to come up with good reasons for not building in steel. 50 meters is more typical of a ship than a yacht, though. Most yachts are not that big. Not even close. To meet the weight, hence also largely money, budget of a 50 foot Nordhavn (not a light boat by any means as far as 50 footers go......), while retaining similar accommodation spaces and stability; the steel will be thin enough you are making serious tradeoffs. It may still not be categorically "wrong" to build it in steel (plenty are built to high standard, with attendant high prices, in Holland...). But in than weight and size, fibreglass is what is what is most widely understood by both builders, installers and servicers.
Vraiment intéressant j'ai hâte de voir la suite... Bonne et heureuse année à vous 🤗 J'aime bien tout ce que vous faites, très bonne qualité et conviviale..
i,m a boilermaker welder of 30 years, this fellow knows his stuff. we use the same weld test processes on structural steel. good interview, you let him talk, unlike some interviews on tv.
Victoria and Rico do let Alexei speak and they ask him the right questions. Their technical knowledge combined with their personalities literally light the fuse that causes Bering’s owner to explode with excitement and pride. I am amazed by how quickly the Bering build is moving forward.
When I win the lottery, I will be buying a boat Alexie made! Bering 65' or something like that. He's amazing to listen to and you can almost feel the pride exuding from him. Carbon fiber construction is being adopted by many manufacturers but I would choose a Bering built vessel. Thanks guys for this video!
Alexi knows his stuff. Also good on him for being a patient expert (the person interviewing is a bit annoying) he is good at explaining, and freely sharing his knowledge and experience. Man has an open mind.
that's actually quite funny as i was thinking the same, sadly its a very American thing, over excitement, and i get it, new toy, etc, i was told Americans tend to be 'word smiths', they like and have to explain everything at least twice, even though Alexi began to suggest what happens when the paint is scratched and says it in plain simple understandable English (my first and only language) she has to interrupt and repeat it, when there is no need - would save some video time too - i use the rule, if you don't understand, sit back and shut up and listen and learn, (thumb up bum brain in neutral) this is not me having a go at any individual here because i understand the excitement even if it appears over the top, (i can fast forward, but hate to miss anything) i see this over and over in so many videos i watch from the US, i do love the US and the people, the dreams, etc but i would have to find a quiet girl if there is one for me a bunch of brothers i watch who rebuild smashed muscle and super cars etc, have to explain what they are about to do (first time), then announce they are going to do this and that (for second time, i know you just said) and again lets get on by doing what they just explained (for the third time) - i thought i was bad when i was told at university when writing answers to questions, write 'concisely' particularly when there is a word count and you will be disqualified for going over, 'i get it now' this clearly is not the case in the good old USofA, kind of surprising things get done at all, (ok the boat here is being built in Turkey) but the video could be shorter, if it were me, i'd be crap at this, so would opt for narration over the top or captions what i am liking in the videos, good filming, well done NautiGuys, and including the people doing the work, and not just a couple with a little cash to splash on a super yacht, but who clearly worked hard to get where they are and have great plans for an even better lifestyle - not quite my cup of char, but i am only here because i enjoy the craftmanship of boat building and the folk who do it, i've watched smaller wooden boats from design to launch, fibreglass and now looking at big steel boats, interesting
PRIVYET ......Another fantastic video.........These videos are the best advertising for Bering and having Alexis there to explain everything in everyday language , is the icing on the cake .........Great job guys
@@NautiGuys I am utterly astonished and stunned by the sheer number of video comments you answer. It is mindblowing to see Yutubers really caring and reading everything people write .......You know, you are the only one I ve seen who basically answer all of you comments here. Victoria you simply amaze me and i am not surprise at all by you success. .......BRAVO
@@cprolland1539 ooow thank you kindly! I feel that it's the only way I can truly connect with our subscribers and know what you guys are interested in seeing. It is a huge commitment, but I still do it every day on my own
I really enjoy any type of technical information about the boats from Rico, Alexi, or anyone. I was just thinking "ask him about the welding!" and you did!. Love this channel, happy New Year!.
@@NautiGuys Your first video with him is still one of my favorites. Can't wait to see all the steel, brass, aluminum, plastic, wires, glass, come together and turn into your new boat/home.
Wonderful video! Alexis is so interesting when he’s explaining all the different aspects of building yachts! It was also interesting to learn the downside to fiberglass. I didn’t know that it was water absorbent or that it is not easy to recycle. So along with having a lot of fun I really enjoyed learning when I watch your videos too. Love from Vermont
I bought my first boat back in the eighties. Current boat is our fourth boat. I have always gone for steel for the reasons Alexei mentioned: it's heavy, sturdy and durable. If you're rich and you can afford a new yacht, you can go for fiberglass... I mean, you can sell the boat and replace it with a new yacht before possible (osmosis) problems start to occur. If you're "poor", go for steel. If well maintained, the boat wil live longer than its owner. And if you would bump into something, you have a dent, not a crack ;-)
enjoy your channel , be polite when your builder was answering your questions ,you would interrupt him or try to finish his answer , it works for you and Rico suave but he's not your hubby , keep up the good work , and good luck with your boat !
Thanks for this one! I always wondered about the more basic aspects of the build, like welds and certification of the welders...and other technical manufacturing processes. Good job!
I recommend to unsubscribe and subscribe again and turn the bell on. Also, check your phone settings, you might have YT app notifications turned off Videos will be out every Thursday now on this channel and every Sat on @nautistyles as usual
Thank you again for the update of your new Ship Victoria and Rico. It is such great fun seeing the sparkle in Victoria,s eyes when talking about the build! Happy New Year too you both and as always, waiting for the next video!!!
I absolutely love your videos! I find myself regularly checking to see if there is a new one. This video was so informative and enjoyable- thank you for sharing. Happy New Year to all!
next year! This channel will go in order, but if you can't wait and want to see it in real-time: we just posted an update on the NautiStyles 2 weeks ago and also sharing constant live updates on www.Patreon.com/NautiStyles
Fiberglass used with poly resin isnt 100% waterproof, but when used with epoxy resin it is. Its not cost effective to use epoxy in a boat build though because its 2-3x the price of poly or vinylester resin. Also, pound for pound, fiberglass is stronger than steel. Steel IS easier to repair though. Cut out a section and weld in a new one, instead of sanding a huge bevel and laminating layer upon layer. then
This man is so proud about the quality of his product. That is an old school business man. Sad to say, today is all about let’s make money and build it as cheap as possible and charge as much as possible. Congrats to Alexei and his team.
I'm sorry, I'm just getting to these two videos. I have just learned of serious flooding in Turkey. I hope Alexi and everyone there is safe along with your new boat.
I often wonder if you put Alexie from Bering and Dan Streech from Nordhavn in the same room for dinner if you would have a great conversation or a food fight. Both are very passionate about their products. What I have learned from both sets of customers is that they both agree that superior customer service is everything. Another excellent video.👍
I always love every new episode! This one is absolutely amazing. As others have said, Alexei's enthusiasm for his craft is infectious. My wife and I are still dreaming (waiting on the lottery win) to get our Bering 65 (except it's not on the web site). Happy New Year, Rico and Victoria! Will you still berth in Marina Del Rey or is the 75 too big? Thank you for continued wonderful content from New Mexico!
Happy New Year Everyone! Starting next week we will be uploading videos every Thursday on this channel 😝🤩 Part 2 will be out on January 12th
I was actually getting ready to suggest you do a special on steel vs glass from inter views of veteran captains and owners of both.. great idea!!
Love your videos cant get enough of them when I get enough I want the 145 explorer, the walkthrough you did with Alexi was brilliant (as is all your walkthroughs) oh yeah and Rico you do an excellent job on the videos 😉
I am looking forward to seeing all these videos in this series. This is great information and I find it highly interesting!

And actually doing it
I can’t say it enough just how lucky and fortunate you two are to have your own Baring yacht being made.
Lucky? No luck needed. Just bring many millions of dollars and they will build one for any person that asks.
Thank you Charles, we do feel very fortunate to have this opportunity
The display of hull steel with different surface coatings is excellent. The interview was good, and the foreman was expert and explained the project really well.
It was an excellent presentation, and described the work perfectly.
It's always great hearing about the technical side. Can't wait to seen the next part. Happy New Year!
Happy new year
As Journe mentions, hopefully not Chinese steel. Where was the steel sourced and was there a compliance certification required?
This guy is sooooo easy to understand everything he says about boat building is nicely explained !! Wow, bravo
Bering is just AWESOME!!!
The comfort, the tech, the materials, the range ...... if I can ever afford an explorer yacht it will be a Bering.
Happy New Year to 2 of my favorite boaters and Alexi ! Looking forward to seeing more of your boat in 2023.
Happy new year!

Aluminum is significantly more susceptible to fatigue failures.

If you're "poor", go for steel. If well maintained, the boat wil live longer than its owner. And if you would bump into something, you have a dent, not a crack ;-)
Thanks for sharing
enjoy your channel , be polite when your builder was answering your questions ,you would interrupt him or try to finish his answer , it works for you and Rico suave
but he's not your hubby , keep up the good work , and good luck with your boat !
Excellent video, very informative.
Thanks Alan
Alexie is the boss I wish I had. His passion & love is infectious. Happy New Year from Colorado ❤.
Happy new year!
Again an amazing video about building a boat. Thank you for sharing your passion. Stay safe Cheers
🙏🏻💙 happy new year
I was surprised at the announcement that there'd be a part 2 as it didn't seem like you'd been going that long-- 20 minutes flew by. Great stuff!!
Nice! Happy to hear such dense content wasn’t boring 🙈🤪
Yay I discovered this channel finally, next to NautiStyles a new favorite. “We’re gonna get a little geeky” 😅 I love you guys style.
Welcome aboard!😝😝😂😂
Alexey does such a fantastic job. Thanks for the share and happy New Year’s Victoria and Rico
Happy New Year
Thanks for this one! I always wondered about the more basic aspects of the build, like welds and certification of the welders...and other technical manufacturing processes.
Good job!
Glad you found it interesting
I was beginning to wonder where you guys were !!!
This is going to be a Big year for you !! Looking forward to the build !!
Happy New Year !!!
Thanks Doug, can't wait to share
That was a Cool explanation 😎👍✨🤙🤙🤙🤙
Yayyy! What I've been waiting for 😄
sweet!
Cheers, low low low maintenance for the win....
Привет! С Новым Годом и Рождеством. Как всегда прекрасные ролики. Получаю удовольствие. Здоровья, счастья, любви и благополучия @NautiGuys🙏🌹🥂
:))) Spasibo, vas toge!
This is just so interesting Victoria and Rico! Thank you for sharing! 👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
I'm glad you're going to have a day for release because even though I have notifications switched on I never get a notification!
I recommend to unsubscribe and subscribe again and turn the bell on. Also, check your phone settings, you might have YT app notifications turned off
Videos will be out every Thursday now on this channel and every Sat on @nautistyles as usual
Really interesting discussion. I hope you are able to cover the below the waterline surface treatments and maintenance schedules as well. Cheers
will do!
This is so informative. I will never own a yacht but I love following your process. Thanks for sharing.
So glad we are able to share this journey with all of you 💙🙏🏻
This was so interesting! Can’t wait for part 2!!
Coming next week
Thank you again for the update of your new Ship Victoria and Rico. It is such great fun seeing the sparkle in Victoria,s eyes when talking about the build! Happy New Year too you both and as always, waiting for the next video!!!
Happy New Year! Thank you for watching
I absolutely love your videos! I find myself regularly checking to see if there is a new one. This video was so informative and enjoyable- thank you for sharing. Happy New Year to all!
Thank you so much! This really made my day!

Good luck Reko and Vicki.
Hard work pays off and you guys deserve it.....
Hope this year you get everything you dream of.
thank you
you have to Love Alexi ! wishing Bering much success and will put one on my bucket list
Thank you
Very educational……..thank you 👍.
These videos are great advertising for Bering and a good advert for your future charter and expedition rentals.
Amazing interview! Enjoyed this series!
Thanks from İstanbul
Ultra sound is used far more to check weld penetration, only test pieces would be X-rayed more too test steel quality & tensile strength
The chalk technique is neat. Learned something new here. 🙂
Rico anc Victoria, I am anxious to see progress on your 75 footer...completion due this year. Keep pushing!
next year! This channel will go in order, but if you can't wait and want to see it in real-time: we just posted an update on the NautiStyles 2 weeks ago and also sharing constant live updates on www.Patreon.com/NautiStyles
Can they add cathodic protection to slow down the rust? Attach a hunk of sacrificial anode?
Great demos and practical applications. Thanks Alex.
💙🙌🏻
Excellent way to start off 2023. It's going to be a wonderful twelve months. Happy New Year.
Happy new year!
Fiberglass used with poly resin isnt 100% waterproof, but when used with epoxy resin it is. Its not cost effective to use epoxy in a boat build though because its 2-3x the price of poly or vinylester resin. Also, pound for pound, fiberglass is stronger than steel. Steel IS easier to repair though. Cut out a section and weld in a new one, instead of sanding a huge bevel and laminating layer upon layer. then
Wow this is so interesting owner gets hands on explaining why steal and so interesting with paint the shine polish.
👌🏻🙌🏻
Yea.. Wondering where u kids went.. Glad to see you moving forward.. Sharing.. thx
🙌🏻💙🙏🏻
Excellent episode. The information you guys are providing is excellent!!!
Thank you, so happy to hear that
This man is so proud about the quality of his product. That is an old school business man. Sad to say, today is all about let’s make money and build it as cheap as possible and charge as much as possible. Congrats to Alexei and his team.
Totally geeked out watching this!👏🏻👏🏻 So very interesting and informative! Thanks 🎉🍀
Glad to hear that!
I'm sorry, I'm just getting to these two videos. I have just learned of serious flooding in Turkey.
I hope Alexi and everyone there is safe along with your new boat.
Happy new year!!! It's amazing, thanks a lot!!
Same to you!
great video on steel vs other materials, and the paint
Thanks Rob
I often wonder if you put Alexie from Bering and Dan Streech from Nordhavn in the same room for dinner if you would have a great conversation or a food fight. Both are very passionate about their products. What I have learned from both sets of customers is that they both agree that superior customer service is everything. Another excellent video.👍
Lol thanks Robert
I always love every new episode! This one is absolutely amazing. As others have said, Alexei's enthusiasm for his craft is infectious. My wife and I are still dreaming (waiting on the lottery win) to get our Bering 65 (except it's not on the web site).
Happy New Year, Rico and Victoria!
Will you still berth in Marina Del Rey or is the 75 too big?
Thank you for continued wonderful content from New Mexico!
Thanks for hanging with is Mark!
