    There's taking a boat out and TAKING A BOAT OUT. Not only driving but narrating. Well done.

    Love these types of videos showing you the whole start up and manoeuvre of large vessels. You make it look so easy and would love to see you set up the nav etc and take a boat out to show you how easy it can be done solo (if possible)
    Another couple of things I’d love to see is the process of how you go about speccing and buying your boat, also how the handover of a boat should be done from dealer to customer on delivery day (if there is such a thing) I know many owners wouldn’t want to be on RUclips but perhaps a mock up of a boat handover?
    Great video again and looking forward to your next one whatever it may be 😃

    drawers and cupboards and waving at yourself in the mirror.

      That's pretty unfair on Aquaholic which is who you're obviously aiming this comment at. Nick's whole MO is purely to showcase the design and functionality of vessels rather than giving people tutorials on how to drive.

      @@justininvestor Yes, because that's what he does and specialises in. He also tells you a lot about the boat? I don't get it? He details the engines, the interiors, exteriors.. you're judging his channel by expecting different content to what he makes?

    Thank you for another enjoyable and informative video James. It is clear from the ease in which you performed the tricky manoeuvres, shows a confidence obviously gained from several years of handling motor yachts. As a land-lubber who has never been on-board a yacht of this size, much less piloted one, it was nothing short of amazing to me that a 76ft motor yacht could be handled so easily with only small adjustments to the throttles and thrusters. I look forward to your next video.

    Well done with that maneuver. I just finished my RYA level 2 at that marina and was doing turns in those finger channels in a RIB like you had in your video. The fact that you did that in a 76 yacht I can only aspire to your level of skill. Well done. 👍
