So pleased for you. Your excitement is understandably palpable. Today is 6 March back in NZ - so wishing you Bon Voyage as you journey to Rhodes Island. Go well and please keep these wonderful videos coming!
Congrats on yet another cool real life video. Can’t help but share in the satisfaction and excitement. Impressed with the manner in which you acknowledged the workers Mark.
🎉 super psyched that Awanui NZ is in the water and working! She looks fabulous. We watched your video on our big telly. Paul says hearty congratulations, so wonderful to see Awanui in the water. 👍👍
I am a new subscriber, I just found your channel few hours ago when I found part 1 of 2 and watched both of them first. Then watched the video after, an I'm going backwards now watching them. I bet while your boat was being hauled to the water and each time it started rocking, I can only imagine about how your heart was beating and with each time of the rocking you were thinking no no you sit still until you get in the water then you can rock back and forth. I would have been just as scared as you were I'm sure. Glad everything went great, an i knew it did because I had already watched the videos you will make in the days to come. Congratulations my new friends, 4 years getting built is a very long time but think how many years your family is going to enjoy making great memories on it together. Because that's what life is about, making great memories together.
She is definitely a beautiful vessel traveling down the road. Are the straps really going to stop the vessel from shifting? I would have been biting my lip the whole trip. The load looked so top heavy
So beautiful. Exciting times. I’ve been locked out of my FB account, so can’t message you back Fi! That’s what happens when you give up Fb for Lent- lol
Absolutely…..amazing thing is the sight gauges are graduated to 20L so we can be very accurate on our three day cruise coming up…believe me I will report back
Congratulations 🥂on the launch of your dream boat. 🛥️⚓️It is truly a beautiful ship. a marvel of engineering and I'm sure many adventures and memories will be made. and look forward to all the adventures you will make and get to know the ship, greetings from the Netherlands
Mmmmm now there’s a thought. I guess it’s just numbers. They don’t build the plugs and moulds for one first though. Thinking it could be three and a half years
Wasn’t four years of building. It was four years from when we made the decision to buy. Covid buggered things up what with supply chains etc. Should be smoother going now they have the first one under their belt!
What a beautiful boat. Congratulations.
Thank you very much!
Great video
So excited...
Cant wait for the next coming one :)
Coming out today and another tomorrow! Flying out….oops sailing out!
Great video, she looks stunning.

Exactly my thoughts too…well she made it…next episode is delivery to the marina
She sure looks good mate.
Yip we are super pleased. Looks special now in the water…leave for Greece Saturday
Congratulations!
Thanks so much
wahoo getting so close now.
Absolutely…video coming soon of splash!
DO we get video of Fiona using the washing machine and dryer?
I think a dedicated video is warranted!
Haha yes we could do that video once you’re visiting us on the boat! A Bart special!!
there i got to see it
Cool
So beautiful. Exciting times. I’ve been locked out of my FB account, so can’t message you back Fi! That’s what happens when you give up Fb for Lent- lol
Haha Suzzie……..you such a good girl! Mark…xx
Very interested to see what the real fuel consumption figures are for this boat.
Absolutely…..amazing thing is the sight gauges are graduated to 20L so we can be very accurate on our three day cruise coming up…believe me I will report back

Hello there the Netherlands…thanks so much for the well wishes. We head off for Rhodes Monday so getting very excited
Bedankt!
Why it’s been delay for so long ?
First model and the age old issue of Covid followed by supply chain slow down. Second N51 is very close now with 3,4 and 5 on their way
Why 4 years ? Does this also include the design phase ?
Basically when the contracts were agreed and plug production/tooling began
@@AwanuiNZ I have to say , you are ALOT more patient than I would have been .
@@williamconway1287lots of things were out of their control so we understood and just sucked it up.
Hi , what about the stabilizers ??
They went on at the last minute…once on the truck
Air new zealand Question Do you remember Terry Lord he was in sales, And Brimblecombe (pilot)
no sorry name does not ring a bell
Beautiful Nordhavn ……4 years?!? That’s how long it takes Carnival cruise lines to build a ship.
Mmmmm now there’s a thought. I guess it’s just numbers. They don’t build the plugs and moulds for one first though. Thinking it could be three and a half years

Why say that you received one ton of fuel but then say the storage capacity of your yacht in liters….? Confused….
Bloody good question
Hope you got a survey.... boats are floating turds 😂😂😂
Huh?
