This boat is simply UNREAL. It's a dream yacht in every respect. The size of this vessel is simply astonishing, boasting four heads and slee...
We've had a lot of you guys requesting more affordable project boat tours, and this one definitely qualifies. The Bayfield 36 is a great boat model for a couple to own, refit, and cruise aboard. It's a cutter-rigged, full-keeled, go-anywhere bluewater crui...
In it's heyday this boat was beautiful. Unfortunately, she's not in such great shape today. This boat needs a complete refit, and totally refitting a 56 foot yacht is a HUGE undertaking that will cost an unimaginable amount of time and money. It's not some...
This boat is WEIRD, but in a good way! We think this she offers a lot of "big boat" features in a small package. It's construction, design, and the Pacific Seacraft track record of building high quality boats mean that you can take this boat anywhere you'd...
The Hans Christian 33 and 41 are two of my all-time favorite boats because they are pure. They are true heavy-displacement cruising vessels and make no compromises. They were expertly designed, built, and laid out for a cruising couple or small family, and...
We were pleasantly surprised with this boat. She is a 2008 custom Gorbon 53' deck salon, built in Turkey for over 1.5 million dollars. She still feels like a million dollar yacht today, but she costs MUCH less to purchase now.
The dual helms, deck salon,...
This boat was built in 1986 as a mobile sawmill for harvesting exotic woods in remote locations. It was then acquired by the founder of Crocs who had it refit in 2012 and used it as a way to promote the brand. It has since been donated to AMI Kids to be us...
The Ericson 38-200 offers a lot of nice comfortable features in a racer-cruiser built in the 80's. We're familiar with this particular boat because it's currently owned and being sold by our friends Drew and Avery.
This boat was struck by lightning twice...
We've been getting a lot of you guys asking for some more affordable and smaller boats than what we've been showing, so we've reached out to a few boats that we think would be good to tour and this is the first "smaller" boat we're touring (For clarificati...
We were truly taken aback by this 65 foot steel yacht. At an asking price of $225,000, it has the accommodations of 50' or bigger catamaran for a much more affordable price tag. Typically catamarans with similar accommodations are million dollar boats. We'...
Originally built in 1972, Durbeck made some really heavy duty cruising yachts, built to go anywhere. The hulls on the fiberglass Durbecks are extremely thick and overbuilt, leading to a heavy-displacement cruiser like this one.
In our opinions, this boat ...
This Lagoon 47 Catamaran is a prototype diesel-electric hybrid built in 1996. It's pretty cool to see that Lagoon was experimenting with electric propulsion over twenty years ago. It's also neat to see the system is still functioning today and is sailed on...
The Formosa 68' (70' LOA) sure is an interesting design and a HUGE boat. This particular boat was purchased and worked on Pre-Hurricane Irma, but when the hurricane hit the boat sustained a little damage to the genoa furler. It's been sitting in it's slip ...
Originally built a little over ten years ago, the previous owner of this massive custom sailboat spent over a million dollars on the build. Unfortunately, he passed away before he could sail the boat, and the current owner purchased it from the estate. It'...
This time we tour a 2002 Creekmore 46. Construction of this yacht haulted around 2005 when the owner ran out of money after sinking half a million dollars into this boat. What is left is an 85% complete brand new 17 year old boat. All it needs is someone t...
We're back at the request of our viewers with another big old boat tour! This time we tour a 1982 Shannon 50. We really like the design of this yacht and believe it to have a lot of potential as a full-time live aboard cruiser for a couple or a small famil...
We're back at the request of our viewers with another big old boat tour! This time we tour a 1985 Cheoy Lee 43, a sailboat that Randi and I have been wanting to tour for some time now. We really like the design of this yacht and believe it to have a lot of...
This boat we check out is an Irwin 52, a very luxurious sailing yacht in it's heyday, and some still are kept in amazing condition. One of these boats in good shape typically sells for $200,000 to $300,000. This one, however is a gutted wreck. Realisticall...
We took a break from the motor compartment stuff to work on our galley refit. This video outlines all the prep work we've been doing prior to installing our solid surface counter tops and new galley sink and faucet.
The goal is to have a functional and c...
Finally! Although the deck is far from perfect, we're super proud of how it came out. The interlux brightside looks good, but the show stopper is the KiwiGrip. It was so easy to apply and it looks awesome, feels great, and seems like it'll grip bare feet o...
Happy Fourth of July! In this vlog we do a lot of prep work right up until we put the first couple layers of primer on our sailboat deck.
With regards to the core in the questionable large area. It really did feel very dry, and when we compared the core ...
The Endeavour 42 is a spacious and comfortable yacht that you could easily live aboard. We were initially drawn to the model because of the center cockpit design, as well as the size and layout. The yacht featured is listed for sale for just under $60,000 ...
We've always dreamed of owning a large sailboat and calling it our home... Is this going to be that boat? Is there too much work to be done? You tell us... because we still haven't decided.
This boat we check out is an Irwin 52' - a very luxurious sailing...
