    A few people have asked whether there's a tour of the big blue one next to it? The answer is, yes of course. It's a Princess S65 and you can watch my full tour of one right here: ruclips.net/video/86t44i-XPs0/видео.html

    • @SaorAlba1970

      mean to say that Princess S65 been up for sale for over 18 months and the tub is just over 4 years old that's shocking

      Is that a custom colour on that blue boat? I've not seen that style of boat in that colour before. It looks really good.

    Who would have thought there was such a useable cabin in that tiny hull! Thanks for showing smaller, less expensive boats. I love seeing all price ranges and not just the multi-million dollar dream boats.

    Versatility is the name of the game with this boat. What the owner needs on a day out this boat can do. Small boat with a big heart. I like the way you're reviewing such a variety of boats from small boats to super yacht.

    Excellent little boat. I’d need more refrigeration space for a weekends worth of provisions/beer. I always like an external grill, so when I’m cooking, I won’t smell up the boat. My RV’s internal kitchen has never been used. I only use the outside kitchen rain or shine. Loved the video Nick

    • @9VARZ
      @9VARZ 4 года назад +3

      Here in Asia, we always use internal kitchens (or galleys) of any kind to only boil/steam rice, prepare cornflakes and instant ramen. All the serious cooking (and smells) have to happen outside regardless the weather! 🤣🤣

    • @WyattUTFT

  • @AntonKramer
    @AntonKramer 4 года назад +21

    looks like a fine and proper boat for the money and nd a good mix between a sports boat and a cruiser. I would love to see or try this on the open water how it preforms
    Only the aft deck looks like a jigsaw puzzle with seams between that are begging to be cleaned with a toothbrush at the end of every visit.

    Absolutely love these boats, they got that little ship vibe to it, very impressed with the amount of storage provided by the OEM, not an inch wasted, the 360 view from inside is simply fantastic, what a little gem, and does 40 kts, only thing I would spec mine would be a bigger fridge or a second one, maybe a bbq in the bridge somewhere ? Lovely find Nick cheers !

  • @nicomeier8098
    @nicomeier8098 4 года назад +21

    Nice boat, looks to me as a more "bare bone" version of the Jeanneau Merry Fisher 1095, for a lot less money. Day boat, weekend boat, fishing trip, does it all.
    Nice find Nick!

    • @9VARZ
      @9VARZ 4 года назад +3

      Yup. Definitely has that kind of vibe, doesn't it?

    • @boxhawk5070
      @boxhawk5070 4 года назад +3

      Pretty similar. I do like the larger deck area and a slightly smaller pilot house, hopefully you are spending more time outside than inside.

    • @andreibocan7757
      @andreibocan7757 4 года назад +2

      The 1095 has 3 cabins and 2 heads, but the 895 is pretty much like this one. Definitely a boat I’d like to think I might afford (used) in a few years.

    Look out WEEKENDS - we are going BOATING. Rain or shine. Foul or fair. There'll be no reason not to go "out" EVERY weekend. Think about it - for less than the cost of an exotic auto you can go places a car can't (it's a tough go to make a hot soup and sandwich lunch while motoring down the highway). Plus, this is the class of boat that's suited for an outboard. And in fair weather, two families could have a jolly good time with the multiple, "convertible" spaces. Ticks all the boxes for a fun, practical, proper, pocket yacht - thanks Nick.

    I think the hob was a Wallas diesel one. You can fit a lid on it which blows hot air across the hot plate and into the cabin and acts as a heater. Very clever and surprisingly effective.

  • @erikgranqvist3680
    @erikgranqvist3680 4 года назад +3

    In a way, outboard engines are better then inboard engines on those smaller boats. It gives more space for people and storage when the engine hang om the back of the boat. And on small boats as this, that can make quite a difference.

If I had known how much they cost and how much I could have made in commission, I absolutely would have accepted the offer.

    Hi Nick, great boat, only issue is the sleeping fir a family of 4. It's a shame that they have not managed to make the second sleeping area a bit wider and higher. I would get rid of one or two of the lockers to get that extra space. Have a long locker on the side you access the boat for paddle board ect. That was 2 young children and 2 adults could go out and stay out for a few nights very easily. Outside of that it's an excellent boat with a lot of kit for the money.

    • @paulnorman8274
      @paulnorman8274 2 года назад +1

      Like Antares and Merry Fisher, you could lower the dinette table, fit a cushion and sleep a (non basketball playing) child.
      There's also canopy available for the cockpit, so you could sleep people there.
      A more fundamental issue, is lack of ventilation down below. Especially in the heads.Whomever decided to install a clear window, so anyone can see inside, but NO opening port light nor hatch, would seem to have been huffing a bit much of the result of that.......

    fantastic boat for just about everybody , fishing and cruising or just aa day runner , brilliant. Only 1 complaint is the cooker with the switches above/ near.. just not good .. switch the cooker with the sink and I think it's a great boat. Thanks Nick .. Do you think the builders take our comments onboard?
