What a beautiful yacht…Well done refit and design….I looked at the price before I looked at the yacht and said that’s too much…After seeing what was done, in my opinion it’s well worth the price…..
Brother - go with your first instincts. Remember - at some point you have to sell it. The current owner "spent $20 million fixing her up" and is asking $6 million. That should tell you something.
@@willywonka8730 you get to enjoy the fruits of that $20 million for $6.2 million. She’s a wonderful boat, and you sure as heck won’t be $14 million in the hole. I have to agree with Denison Yachting here, "a steal, but to the right buyer priceless".
@@Nunyabizn3ss Yeah It's a "No brainer!" right? People without a brain will actually think this is a good deal. Frankly, I don't see $6 million. Let alone $20 million. $500k MAX! Not a penny more.
Wow...what a machine. They must have stripped her right back to the steel hull. In most boats of this era, even with expensive refits, you can still see vestiges of the old rope and pulley design...under/over v-berths, lots of white paint with wood trim etc. Not here, unless it's intentional like the bow locker. This little ship has superyacht beauty inside, especially in the accommodations. Beautiful master stateroom and the quality of the woodwork all over is first rate. The Florida room is a wonderful touch and I agree, it's where I would be cruising the coast. Under the refit though, she's all muscle...tough as nails steel and those engines...just wow. This, however, might be a tough sell at over $6 million. It's going to take a buyer who appreciates the bones of this ship, its shipbuilder lineage and its resilience as well as its beauty. Most potential buyers would probably go with a new 90 foot Sunseeker and not pay as much. The buyer is going to be someone for whom Nereus is Love at First Sight!
Absolutely Gorgeous.. it’s soo obvious the amount of love has gone into this awesome rebuild.. such classic lines.. congrats to you guys 👏🏼👏🏼 beautiful classic details
Thank you for sharing this absolutely beautiful ship with us and I truly appreciate and Love it. Everything is perfectly done and the wood work is done by master craftsmen who love their jobs and it shows here on this 1969 beautiful boat and she an I are the same age, but she is in Alot better shape than I am. If I had the money this boat would be sold to me and my clothes would be hanging up inside it closets and I would never want to leave the boat once I got on. Can you imagine going to the Bahamas, Jamaica or the Florida keys with her. This beautiful house on the water, she's going to be turning heads and everyone who is near her would want a tour of the inside. She is worth it and I wish the boat builders today would take a closer look and see that by having 3 state rooms instead of the designer trying to squeeze 5 state rooms in her, like that old saying less is more. An that's why those rooms look so nice and you don't have to back out of the rooms just to turn around. You have plenty of room to get dressed in the bedrooms where alot of boats today you don't have much room because they wanted more bedrooms instead of going this route an have 3 rooms that have been thought out with comfort in mind. To me, this boat is absolutely the most perfect and spacious an along with it's steel hull and aluminum super structure and sun deck, this is a go anywhere boat. That aft room is perfect also. When I was watching this video for the second time, when he showed us that stunning living room, I kept thinking about where or what spot would you set up your Christmas tree. I myself would put it just left of the TV. That way the grand children can see it when they walk in that room and they love to decorate it every year at Papa's house. It's really about our families and spending time with them and sharing our love with them. I know my grand children would love to have this beautiful boat and call it home when they come to visit it. God already knows, if I had the money I would have already bought her. An leave the dining room table alone and add about 8 comfortable chairs for fantastic dinners to be served with the perfect meals. I'm old fashioned country through and through. I'd rather have a meatloaf dinner that to have shrimp or lobster to eat. Fire up a grill and have burgers and hotdogs for lunch and grill the best steaks for our dinner. There are endless ideas I have that I would do if I owned her. But rather she would own me like it really is when we think about it. Thank you so much for letting us see her cutting through the water and while at anchor how steady the stabilizers kept her from pitching from side to side. That really important for those children who get sea sick easily. I absolutely love these older boats and the hard work that the workers put in building them. Most of those who built these older boats have passed away but they leave behind great works of art, so I say rip and thank you to them All who lived doing their jobs and taking pride in it. That is the key word I think when we see these boats, the craftsmanship that went into building them, those workers used alot of their pride in it and it shows. The people who designed her, knew what they were doing also. I can't say anything bad about this boat except, I don't own her right now but hopefully I will soon. God bless everyone of us and remember share our Love that's inside our hearts aling with our Kindness for your fellow man, and woman. May we all find the love that we each should have in our lives.
outstanding craftmanship & engineering inside & out.. lots of time & effort def shows w/every inch of your walk through... solid commentary & info as you treated us throughout your walk of this insanely gorgeous vessel, one of the best opening w/that tail of the sea... TY
Absolutely beautiful ! It seems like they just kept the hull and built everything new. It is a testament to the build quality of the 60's, amazing job. It is worth the price, would love to buy it, it is just a tad above my budget............ Too bad, will have to do with my 50 footer a bit longer (lol).
Built as Prossit, caught on fire in Gardenrs bay, sunk on the spot raised and towed to city Island and the mechanics had her engines running before she arived. She is distinctive with her small side windshield on the fly bridge. Dennison has excelent brokers. Why put idiots in charge of showing a partial restoration
Very Very nice motor cruiser love it I prefer these older boats over the new ones they have a lot of character, And the other I do not like the word Yacht to describe these boats if you look up the true meaning of Yacht it means a vessel under sail or power does not a vessel under power only, Thank you for the tour is the boat for sale.?
To me it looks like the mast can rotate backward and the Bimini looks like it can stow as well also the Davits. If so I wonder what her bridge clearance is?
Quick 'Goggle Surch' gives this info: 'The yacht has a range of 2,400 nautical miles at a speed of 11.0 knots with its 24,000 litres of fuel on board, and 8,200 litres of water. Certainly enough for a summer in the Med or winter in the Islands and given the quality of the build, sufficient to do an Atlantic crossing via the Azores and Bermuda'.
Dutch steel hulls are rolled marine grade tank steel... Its very corrosion resistant...and they would have surveyed every inch of what would be a shaped hull .... With the thickness being controlled by the forming process .. modern hulls tend to be constructed from panels welded together. You are looking at hull that should be good for another 100yrs providing its maintained. Certainly wouldnt hole like a GRP hull if you settled on a reef or age fatigue .
Given the age of the yacht, you might want to put in how old the appliances are, what steps have been done on the cabinetry, if any, to keep them from creaking like an 1850's schooner. She looks wonderful. I would advertise that back deck more of an area for fishing than stowing stuff. Add a livewell and maybe a bait station in the corners and you are good to go. Also a wash station for your hands afterwards. Feadship made 2 sportfishing yachts and Denison handled the sale of one of them, Liberty, I believe so this would be a great way to get one very similar to that design that Feadship won't ever make again. Might be a good selling point since more people are looking at smaller yachts like fishing yachts because they think fuel consumption will be lower, but definitely the crewing aspect will be cheaper. Or at least that is what I was told by a few brokers recently. They could be lying. They are brokers after all. Just kidding. Did you all get rid of Ryan Alexander? My favorite L.A. sounding swaying verbose grandiloquent yacht buzzword talker. And Kurt Bosshardt not being in a video lately is a rarity. This guy has Alex's stoic delivery with Will's enthusiasm and a dollop...yes a full dollop of Bobby's happy-go-lucky charm.
Thanks for the feedback Clif, very helpful stuff here and we'll be sure to get that other information out. And the great Ryan Alexander will be back soon!
So the last owners bought this boat and *then* spent 20 mil on a restoration, and they're selling it for low enough that the broker is asking 6. Something tells me that restoration price included a giant shipment of coke.
Really Disappointed that it didn’t have an overhang area on the back so that you can get a little bit of sun and be in the shade to me that’s what these boats are supposed to do and yet somebody dropped the ball on the design of the refit
That is an incredible price for what you are getting. A real good deal. Sadly, I am a little over 6 million short, so I don't think I'll be able to buy it.
It's charming but old design. It's impractical in today's market. It's WAY overpriced. Reminds me of something my brother-in-law would buy because he inherited a buttload of dough and then immediately regret. Crew quarters? How much crew do you need? As a world cruiser - No way. Not ever. Not at any price. As a beach condo with a mother-in-law setup - Maybe. But where will you park it and at what cost? And for $6 mil you can buy a mansion that APPRECIATES on the water and is much easier/cheaper to maintain and access.
"Nereus" ... In Greek mythology, Nereus (/ˈnɪəriəs/ NEER-ee-əs; Ancient Greek: Νηρεύς, romanized: Nēreús) was the eldest son of Pontus (the Sea) and Gaia (the Earth), with Pontus himself being a son of Gaia.

We agree! Thanks for commenting.
Wow! Wonderful. The sheer class and competence combined are impressive. The taste is impecable. And Feadship ... , well, brilliant.
We are glad you enjoyed her. Thanks for commenting!
Beautiful classic lines with some modern upgrades. Stunningly perfect.
Agreed :)
I love looking at beautiful yachts. But this one is just stunning! By far the most beautiful ships that travel the seas.
She's one of our favorites. Cheers!
By far the best presentation I have ever seen showcasing this Yahtzee. Great job!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching!
Fantastic yacht! Much more nice than
most new builds. This interior will never be out of date

Wow is right! She was certainly love at first sight for us. Someone will be very lucky to own this boat, to say the least.
It’s a beautiful vessel
Thank you Judge, much appreciated
That is gorgeous! That’s my idea of the perfect super yacht…
Agreed. She's perfect 😍
Great video! Nice job of providing the necessary details without overkill.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for commenting!

I'm watching this again because I just really love this boat! I can dream....
She's absolutely stunning, and Max killed this Walkthrough! Appreciate the comment, Chris.
The Queen of Ocean Reef!
Thank you for commenting!
I remember her as Persistence when she was moored in Derecktor's yard in Dania in early 1975. Great to see her looking her very best now.
Wow! Thanks for sharing that. It is pretty incredible to se her in such amazing shape after all these years.
I love this beautiful boat!

You are most welcome, thank you for watching
Very nice vid of a beautiful old yacht, the refit was fantastic and is a credit to the previous owner and the yard that did the work.
Absolutely. Some serious work went into her
Absolutely spectacular floatation device
Slightly more advanced than your typical PFD 😜
Like a restored Steinway and Sons Concert Grand Piano! What a Beautiful Instrument of Travel
She really is! Thank you for commenting!
What a tastefully done boat. A piece of artwork.
Nothing like the new boats today that look like Nike shoes.
A piece of art and history. It's hard to beat a classic Feadship.
Absolutely gorgeous!

Nice Yacht. Question is , will the 53+ years old Steel Hull hold up for another 5-10 years ?
Will it not Titanic on the new Owner ?

What Clive said... ^^
Great presentation!!!
And of course….😍👣😍
Don't know what's better...
No water maker?
'Ferrari red' is called 'Rosa Corsa'...just FYI.
But "Ferrari red" just sounds sounds soooo much cooler.
