What a great inside look. I need to get down there and try out those trolleys.
Alex and Blair did a great job show the heart of the yacht.
We only had so much time to try and show as much as we could so if there is anything we missed you would like us to show or something that you would like a more in-depth explanation drop us a comment and we’ll try and add it to a future video.
Looking forward to next weeks charter video where we saved an adrift sail yacht.
Thank you everyone 🛥️🙏
Would it be possible to do a video explaining the firefighting systems and equipment as well as the medical and life safety equipment that is required aboard? I think it would be nice to have an explanation as to why different yachts are required to have certain equipment while others do not and how a yacht crew needs to be trained to handle fires, medical emergencies, mob, and so forth.
I believe that many people would be very interested to see how extensive this all needs to be on this class of yacht. Thanks
When do the videos come out is there a day
That tour was as good as it gets, The size of the engine room and it’s ancillaries we’re really an eye opener …
This is most transparent yacht in history. Blair does and amazing job, and Captain Paul you have built an amazing team. Alex is crushing it, this guy is going to steel the show at the crew talent show.
Thanks for the support mark ! We do have an amazing crew. We are so grateful for it

The Engineers are in fact the most important people on the ship. What use is the Captain if the engines do not work?? This tour of the systems was fascinating - Do a video of in passage checks, and really put the engineers in the limelight - We know that when the fuel pump failed, that the crew would have happily given them gold to get that engine running again. They might lack a sun tan and have oil under the finger nails, dirty faces sometimes too, but Engineers are the Uncrowned Royalty on every ship at sea. ....... As you might have realised, I was an engineer!!! No bias or sponsorship of course - Good luck and may the wind always follow you or be absent altogether!! John
Boom! Finally an engine room tour woohoo! Loved see the engos on here :D PS we love you guys, thanks for keeping my fridges cold and my stoves hot
How do you like your eggs? 😂😂😂
Unbelievable complexity and technology. Two men have to know every system and how to run and maintain it. Doesn’t even cover all the other items on the ship like the washers and dryers. Unbelievably impressed with the engineering crew! Worth every Penny the owner pays these guys! 💪💪💪
As an engineer myself, it's wonderful to see this side of things! Brilliant!
This.
30 minutes of pure geek-out. Thanks Alex. Well done.
@@zf4hp24 this is not "geek-out", only snipes would like this boring video.
I am an engineer in the automotive sector, so seeing this inside view of a yacht is really interesting
As a former Nuclear Machinist Mate (SSBN 622) many years ago, I thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Superbly qualified people. Well done.
Former Nuke Electrician (SSBN-608)... totally agree. My brother Robert also was a nuke MM; unlike me, he went into the Merchant Marine after the Navy (Chief Engineer -Unlimited). It always amazed me with stories he'd tell me about flying into the Persian Gulf to relieve another engineer... and boom, 8 hours later, he's the guy in charge of Engineering on a ship which might have engines of a type (brand) he never saw before, with auxiliary equipment he never saw before... And his first and second engineers and wipers might not have much more experience with the particular equipment... (unlike the usual case on a US Navy submarine for example).
I think in this video, they didn't make enough note of the dozens and dozens of tech manuals we saw on file in the ECR at the beginning of the tour..
WOW!!! I’ve seen some shorter engine room your but this was, by far, the most extensive. I’m overwhelmed and incredibly impressed with what was shown. I can’t even imagine how anyone can learn all of this and be so proficient! Kudos to all the engineering crew- YOU RULE!! Yes, would love to see more of the behind the scenes working!! Great job, Blair!!
Awesome tour Alex - Blair too! I know you’re proud of the team responsible for everything we viewed - it always amazes me how the designers and engineers create the ability to make a Yacht experience a true memory for the guests. For another interesting idea - would love to have the divers show us the under structure of the Yacht! Thanks again for a very memorable tour. 🎉
Interesting request. We already know that every member of Loon's crew is PADI qualified. Are only engineers involved with the underside or can any crew member be called upon to assist?
That was awesome. I didn't realize how expansive and complex the engineering spaces are on a yacht that size. That's a lot of preventive maintenance, as well. I'm surprised that their are only 3 engineers. Good job, guys, and thanks.
Um, hate to break the news to you Cap, but Alex just stole the show. If I were you mate, I'd keep that handsome charming, and brutishly articulate chap as far below deck as possible on all future voyages, lest he start gunnin' for your job mate. But being the fantastic maritime engineer he be, it should be all good with him and you too, ya? May the best man win !!
What a fantastic crew. You really connect with your subscribers by answering their questions and requests. Best wishes.
Great job Chief, you can tell a lot by looking at how clean and organized the Eng, spaces are. Look forward to seeing more of the engineering crew and spaces.
This brings back memories that statement "everything must work" says it all, comment from my captain once "talk to the engineer, I just drive it" yep nothing happens without a good engineering team, great video.
Really what makes it all happen… without the engineers the boat would never leave the dock…not even issue one of these videos!! Great job Alex and crew!
Amazingly clean engine room. No oily rags anywhere to be seen!
Most of engine rooms are like this on modern boats
Absolutely THE most interesting part of ship's management ( for me ). 21:55 2 thumbs up in X formation for the safety of all involved! ( locked side doors, safety cone ) I don't believe you can get more conscious to the health and well-being of all! Thank you for this video @ M/Y Loon. These are the reasons Loon is 💯 in my book!
I would love a "day in a life of a chief engeer".
I don't know about anyone else but I enjoyed that tour so much. Being a contractor I do a lot of repair work but I had no idea just how robust the Loon's systems were. Thank you.
Excellent tour and great video overall! As an IT guy - I’d love to see more about the IT computer systems and networking aboard. Yozo seems like he’s got a tremendous amount to maintain on a such a highly sophisticated ship. You all seem to do a great job hiding the inner workings of the ship - but short of the coffee makers going down - if the computers &/or internet go down - Yozo’s the man with the plan!
As a network administrator I would love some more details about the network and what exactly is in the racks! And the satellite uplink and bandwidth! Super curious.
Could tell Alex was nervous about being on camera but as soon as he started talking about the technical details he was much more composed and obviously extremely knowledgeable on so many complicated systems. Would love to see more.
The scale and complexity of this - being that it all must fit aboard a ship - is very very impressive! The number of systems that the engineers must comprehend and manage is a lot! Thank you so much for this tour!
As a worker on oil and gas platforms for 36 years and also doing electrical work on oilfield workboats and crew boats before that, I loved this video. Much better technology than they had on the oilfield boats back in the 70's and 80;s.
It was great to see what you have in the engine and equipment rooms.
We have a lot of the same things on the oil platforms, but ours are just much bigger.
My late dad was MEM (Stoker) in the Royal Navy and he would have loved this video. Nice to see the engineers and wow those spaces were spotless and a true asset to Loon. Great vlog and very interesting. Greg 🇬🇧
When I watch super yacht walk throughs I normally skip the engine room bit, but this was informative and entertaining, kudos to you all, it’s great to see a happy ship👏
The 2 most important people on the ship are the engineer, and the cook🤣 Being an ex marine engineer I really enjoyed this well done guys.
We asked and you delivered top notch, a 24 hour day in the life of engineer could be another great view 👍
Wow, awesome engine room tour. I have worked in a high tech industry for 40years and am rarely impressed but this blew me away, how can one person know so many different systems plus be great in front of the camera..... awesome job Alex. All the crew on Loon, you are something else !!! 💪😎
Captain Paul, thank you; you are an excellent ambassador for Aussies. Engineer Alex, thank you for sharing your hidden maze of intrigue. Blair, thank you for engaging, arresting, insightful content each time. The Loon owners and crew and the entire vessel is a slice of heaven on the waters. God bless you all, your families and your beloved nations. I follow you from the Fiji Isles in the South West Pacific. Sunny salutations!
very cool we would love to get over to Fiji one day :)
@@motoryachtloon Fiji would be honored to welcome your party to the Fiji Isles. We have a burgeoning yacht culture in our tourism industry. There are several privately owned islands here with their own exclusive 5-star resorts. High-end clientele from the US and the UK have been known to vacation at some of those properties 🌞
I have lots of friends that have visited Fiji on yachts. Unfortunately, i haven't made it down that way yet. Hopefully, one day soon.
Cant wait to more of these! Hahaha the engineer “dad jokes” 😂😂
As a non techie I thoroughly enjoyed this video well done on a great video. Love to see maintenance and repairs being done. Outstanding
Just came across your channel and this was the first video we have watched. Absolutely loved the tour of the engineering spaces by Blair and Alex and what great personalities and ambassadors for M/Y Loon. Definitely want to see more from this dynamic duo of the behind the scenes parts including main engine maintenance. Thanks and looking forward to binge watching the rest of your videos. 👍👍👍
So glad that you liked it ! We’ve got a lot more coming !
@@motoryachtloon thanks for replying and can’t wait to see more. Big thanks to the whole crew from us.
So for being absent for the past few weeks , been on holiday in Wales no internet at all.
But time to play catch up can’t wait
Reading the comments looks like I’m in for a treat
Cheers Blair, Captain and your amazing team
We missed you Jamie. Hope you had a great vacation🤙
Cheers to Alex and Dom! (and also the ETO officer). As a technical geek myself it was a treat to watch this episode and get to know the ins and out of the Engine room. Higly commendable of them as to having all that knowledge to manage all the systems on board. Having watched many of Loon videos this by far has been my favourite.
coming from the building trades hats off to the builders and maintenance personnel
Engine room is massive
Alex needs his own channel
A fantastic tour, I did notice a difference where Alex got so into what he was talking about that he appeared to forget all about the camera lol
I’m really looking forward to the refit videos, thanks guys, you’ve opened up the world of super yachts like no others have, a few have tried, but everyone onboard Loon seems to be behind this and we can tell. 👍🏻
A first-class bloke in a first-class environment. Nice work. Great video.
Kudos to Alex and crew! I'm a retired Chief Engineer Motor & GT any HP. Your hard work is showcased in how meticulously you maintain the engineering spaces. If only the ships I've sailed on looked half as good. Looks like you have some Siemens switchgear onboard. Loved the comment about natural light hurting engineer's eyes - some truth in that. Hahahaha.
Love all the engineering...these yachts are literally a floating city. Would love more details on any of it. The electrical shore power converter system and how it all works would be great. I never would have thought the bow thruster could demand so much power. Great video....FYI-most guys watching these love when you do more of the mechanical/electrical systems.
First of all what a amazing ship. I can’t imagine the knowledge these engineers have and the extent of training they receive. Also what a clean looking engineering space, everything well kept. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Thanks for the tour! Really enjoyed it. Would definitely like to see more about the refit. And more about the engineering.
Alex did well!
I've decided I want a "BOYS OF LOON" calendar. I'll buy all 12 months.
Wow.
That actually was amazing!
I was thinking my eyes would glaze over, but I wanted to give it a watch to support y'all,...Surprisingly for me I found it really interesting! Now I know why these type of boats have such astronomical price tags! The stabilizers were fascinating to me!
But the most surprising thing was when you opened the closet door to reveal Yozo! What the heck!? Such a handsome, charming guy stuck in a closet all day?? Big thank you to him!
And, yes,...Alex did a fab job, charming as well, while I was watching I couldn't help think, His mother must be very proud!...
Jozo is the best!! we let him out every now and then 😂
Superb views of all the engineering going on down below. Excellent stuff, so very impressive! Blair really having fun on the on the trolley 🤣
Glad you enjoyed it!
WOW ! Thanks Alex . Smart, handsome & funny . Hope they let you out more often . LOL . Mark (Toronto) 💙
Alex: We sit around and drink tea
Dom: No
Dom's face: I need something stronger than that after working all day with you! 😉😂
Thanks for the behind the scenes video! Excellent, as always!
It's amazing that someone actually designed all the equipment and where it was going to be installed , presumably on a computer in the draughtsman stage at the boat yard. A truly interesting video. I'll have to buy a Euro Millions lottery ticket and maybe afford an hours charter. 🤔
Alex was great! Great tour, would be interesting to see a video of what happens when something screws up. The entire crew seems incredibly happy-do you put something in the water?
The engine room is by far the most interesting area of the ship. A ship is basically a giant machine and the engineering spaces are it's heart.
Ive never observed a yacht with such a high level of cohesive spirit that the Loon has. You all appear to perform so well together as a team. Sorry if this sounds corny. Well Done! cheers
Amazing thanks Mark. Yes we're all one big family. There are ups and downs like all families but we all get along for the most part
One thing I'm sure your viewers would enjoy and that is to see a first start up of the day starting with checking the oil and other fluids, etc... I think folks who have never seen the like would enjoy it immensely. Also, kudos to the Engineering Dept they did a Great job. You too, Blair... Keep 'em coming...
as an engineer on SS Nevasa I spent my time om watch wandering around and listening and touching all the equipment and filling in the engine room log. Our STBD stabiliser housing had a split weld at the ships side which opened up whenn the fin was deployed, so we could only use the port one! hahahahaha.
what an amazing job the engineers and crew on this vessel are doing keeping her ship shape.
Thank you for showing the engineering department. That was great.
Two things:
1) The workbench in the engine room. Do they fabricate things at sea? What would be some examples of the kinds of things that would be fixed in there while underway?
2) Need another video on the networking closet. Are you guys running server racks down there or just network switches? Does data get cached on board or telemetry data sent to the cloud in a hybrid solution? Does Yozo run scripts to back things up? The people need to know 😂
yes, we need more about IT stuff!
Thanks guys, loving the more technical stuff!
Great video from a old retired heavy duty diesel mechanic 👍👍👍
what a stunning engine room and ancillary plant spaces - awesome!
This is the one I've been waiting for. Thank you!
I really love this channel, thank you very much for all the great content you put out. This was a great episode casting a light on the often strange breed that is the engineering team 😂 and like you say, nothing on the ship works without them!
The most entertaining and educational video regarding super yacht engine room and its components. Salute to the creators.
Happy Sunday All! Greetings from Switzerland 🇨🇭 I’ve had the chance to visit a few Super Yacht engine rooms and view several videos. You guys did an awesome job on this one congratulations. Can’t wait to see Alex again, presenting us the upgrades and maybe other technical fun things to see, before that. Have a great week and stay safe!
Amazing engineers team 🤩 thanks Alex for your tour 🙏
Alex you did great! Everyone did fantastic jobs. Thanks for sharing.
The refit work later in the year sounds like great content is coming . The behind the scenes on keeping the internet going and balanced would be cool too
That was fantastic, thanks for the look at the engine room and other associated areas.
Awesome!!
great tour, very interesting and never seen before. love your videos and can't wait for Sundays to come around. Keep up the good work.
Alex was awesome! And yes I'd like to see more from him and the inter workings of Loon. Great job as always Blair!
Best episode yet for me! Always love these BTS glimpses, props to the engineers for keeping such a tidy and organised ship👍 great video!
It was nice to see behind the scenes. The engineers keep all the systems you use working.
Alex was great, I love to see what makes the whole operation flow smoothly.
Absolutely loved this, thanks guys
Thanks- Stay safe you all.
Great video...brings a new meaning to 'fill her up'. Cool guys...obviously know their stuff.. and are being paid accordingly...judging by their smiles.
That was just fascinating to see the whole engine bay and all its ancillary equipment! It really give you a better understanding to what goes into a yacht of this size! Thank you ever so much and anything else you can show us! Please do! It was also great to see the fun banter that you all have between yourselves! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👌
Excellent episode. More of this please!
Loved the tour! What a complicated system that works very well. Keep up the good work!
Great to see such a happy Crew & a terrific insight into what makes the Loon tick below decks. Cheers
This was unbelievable , so interesting !! Intricate systems and amazing people to run it. Well done Loon for an awesome video.
Alex and the rest of the staff did an incredible job with this tour of amazing places!
Best explanations I have ever heard. Thank you.
Alex is amazing....the crew and guests are in excellent hands
Best video you've shown yet! There are a lot more places and parts of the works to be seen. Looking forward to seeing those!😊👍
You guys must have the best jobs on a charter yacht. All the crew seem so happy and everyone really seems to like each other. Keep making these great videos 👍😎
Well Done “Loon” amazing video. Keep up the great work. Enjoying every minute.
The nitty gritty details is what I enjoy seeing. Short of tracing systems and knowing all the pipes and fittings I enjoy this
So very, very interesting... thanks so much for the detailed and in-depth video, Alex. This video had my complete attention from beginning to end. Wonderful video and loved the behind the scenes look at what it's like onboard a stunning yacht!!!!
Loved this episode. It is truly amazing what it takes to run a yacht this size. You guys really do have a great crew!
That was much more than an engine room tour. Thank you for such thorough coverage of the ships systems. Keep the technical stuff coming! Also I enjoy all of the outstanding quality content you produce.
ofc WE WANT TO SEE so much more !!! ALEX did amazing, good same as everyone !
Great engineers make a great yacht. Crew and Captain can only work with what they have. Full respect guys.
I have only found the channel in the last few weeks but I would like to give a major shout out to the owner of the vessel.
This channel helps me dream. The crew is amazing seems to be an ideal work environment!
Cheers to the crew. I'm young and hungry to live life to the fullest! This channel makes me dream of what is coming #DREAMBIGandDREAMBIGGER
That was a fantastic inside look of the engineering spaces. We would love to see more about the engineering side of things. Like watching them service things.
Yea it was great. So I’m much to know and learn. Always looking for more in the engineering room. Thx to all on Loon.
Randomly got recommended this channel a month ago and it’s super fun to follow. Way to go, Blair. When I make my first bil I promise to schedule a tour 😊
A big shoutout to the awesome team of engineers behind the Motor Yacht 'Loon'! Your tour was seriously mind-blowing. The cool tech and small details that make the yacht tick are just amazing. You guys really nailed it with the luxurious vibe and smooth ride for everyone to watch. I'm telling you, from the propulsion systems to the hydraulic and electric systems, everything was spot on. This content is seriously awesome, and it's got me excited for more. Can't wait to see what else your creative minds come up with in the future!
Yep, Alex did a great job. As for the refit, absolutely. You guys are providing really great accessibility for truly behind-the-scenes content. I see a lot of shipyards on maritime RUclips channels but never the detailed goings on in those facilities, so seeing a refit would be fantastic. Pretty cool that you have own server/AV control room too.
Very enjoyable tour of the engineering spaces. I've seen a couple of other super yacht engine room tours and it appears that Loon is a step above those. Congratulations on a beautiful ship and an amazing crew.
