Well crafted sturdy boat with a beautiful Italian design. The axe bow and forward windshield really stand out against a background of boats that all look the same (i.e. sloped windshield and bow). The automated fold down side platforms are the show stopper as they give the cockpit the feel of a much larger boat and dramatically enhance your connection with the water. The waters toys and guests tend to congregate in this area and the extra room is priceless. The Pardo 60 cruises quietly and smoothly even for a long distance cruiser. The predicted ranges have been verified. Easy to maneuver and dock with the IPS engines even for a first time owner operator. The 3 large outdoor seating areas give many outdoor options. Breakfast in the cockpit. Afternoon sun on the bow. Watching the moonrise on the fly deck.

Excellent tour Jack, and you obviously had enough time for a thorough walk through and the camera was rock steady. Lovely. The boat is nothing short of spectacular, how nice to see something different, agree fully on the interior design. It's just in a class of it's own. You immediately feel welcome or at home. Understated elegance with that Scandinavian touch. The boat oozes quality and clever solutions abound. Access to crew cabin from the stern with access to E/R through the crew cabin is a stroke of genius. And for once a yacht that didn't join the silly 30 knots race, bet this will do 15 knots in most seas you would want go out in. Finally, my only gripe; I'd like to see a proper bimini on the fly-bridge. Best new boat I remember seeing!

Awesome review as always Jack. But you’re moving the camera around to fast & if possible zoom camera out a bit. It’s making me sea sick😂

0:34 sounds like Jack had a bit of an error there 😆

It had been a long day 🥴

What a great boat, quite simple, roomy, elegant

what a lovely yacht and walkthrough

Nice layout, and I agree about the blind spots.

It looked like the captain was asleep on his bed...nope...but they did have Yoo-hoo in the drink fridge!!!! Best stewardess ever!!!

They have a lot of competition at that price range, not sure they match up to much of it, seems a little Ikea to me.

What is its competition ?

I was just watching a walkthrough of the Galeon 500, and it betters this Pardo in many practical ways, such as a better saloon layout, clever rotating cockpit seating, much better forward seating area, a tender garage, and a solid roof over a very large and usuable flybridge. And it even looks better too!

I agree 100%. I saw the Galeon 500 video too and this boat does not compare with it even though it is 10 feet longer.

@Rob but the Galeon was 10 feet shorter. Imagine having an extra 10 feet of hull just for fuel tanks to bring that Galeon to this size, and it *still* felt larger, far more luxurious, and would be faster and have longer range. The point about *how* the extra 10 feet of hull was used is therefore absolutely valid. Here it all seems to have gone into the small crew cabin and presumably the slightly larger fuel tanks, but the actual stateroom space, other than the master, all felt a lot poorer. The point being, it didn't feel like the space was as well used as the Galleon, despite being 20% larger.

Agreed.

wow! new line, new shape!

I see this boar appealing to the younger set. Lots of places to soak up rays and tons of space for playing around with drink refrigeration everywhere. Definitely a party boat.

Nice yacht!

Is pretty cool boat, nice features, good video and audio quality, Your narration is spot on. I just have one question. Did you have to go pee while you were filming this? Cause you are moving around A LOT, spinning unnecessarily.

Pretty grotty free-standing furniture

I have to agree with N/H, that Galeon with the turntable rear Sitting/Dining/Sun area is a real showstopper. Absolutely stunning craft in all details. Not to leave out that drop down rear platform, stupendous engineering, and totally useful.

Ah but you must see it in person! Beautiful lines and packed with the latest tech and all the useable “WOW” goodies like the side platforms, hydraulic swim platform, the salon that turns into an outdoor patio, gyro stabilization, a panoramic view from the helm (which is surprisingly uncommon and coupled with IPS makes the boat drive like a tender)…the list goes on and on!

I like this one a lot 👍🇬🇧

That hull must be incredibly deep, the amount of headroom below is amazing

Thanks Fabio, sharing is caring!

Striking is a polite way to describe it. Also, get some lens wipes. The grease on your lens was making smudged lens flares.

Pardo finally makes the yacht I want...

x-bow look is amazing

Striking looking boat Jack 😎 Which usually means, in my book, that the accommodation will be compromised….. but no, this looks excellent 🙂 Clean lines and high quality…… if they need someone to do a long term sea trial, maybe 18 months, I’m your man 🥳 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Awesome

I do like this as a live-aboard 🎖

Great looking boat overall… I do agree with you though the view looking to the side and slightly back is definitely compromised.

Excellent crew facilities for a 60 footer.

very nice lines. relative to the rest of the spaces on the boat the saloon living area seems quite small.

I would have liked to see anchor setup at bow. Gives indication of ability to anchor off and potential depths.

I Love seeing these walkthrough videos….However…Really not sure what type of Yacht buyer …would want a Pardoe ..🤔🤔 The Build Quality seems pretty good ..but some interesting design features 🤔 Really not sure many people would want to spend nearly £2,000,000 😱😱 on one of these … Don’t think Princess, Sunseeker, Fairline or Pershing have got anything to worry about… .. Keep the great work 👍👍

Another quick thought on this, another term for minimulist is lacking in features, see Galeon as an example of feature rich.

Galeon 500 walks all over this Pardo flagship in every department.

Is galeon 500 better than magellano 25 meter, or princess F65?

I love the design. Ships bows are forward pointing for a reason - to stop seas from coming over the bow. I wonder how these new bow shapes perform in rough weather?

Watching the haulover inlet videos, kind of not well. The bow cuts nicely, but you can get a lot of water inboard.

Anyone buying this particular boat I don't believe would intentionally take it out in rough seas. But if they did get caught in some rough seas I guess the girls will not be sunbathing on the bow

Seems like a lot of money for a relatively small boat, I think you said that the one you were on, with all the extra's was around €1.7m or something. The interior was great.

👌👌👌

Not a great boat. Slow with poor range. The interior was boring. Not luxurious at all. Perhaps I am spoiled by the Galeon 500 I just looked at. Even though the Galeon is smaller, it has so many more features that most people would find desirable. But a good walk around as usual!

If the numbers come up sometime 's,this is the Baby I would have,Magnificent 🤩👌

Not a magnificent boat at all. There are so many others that are far better.

You, Sir, so a wonderful and very thorough video tour on all the boats that you film. I don’t know how much $ you make but I say it’s way off… you should be paid well - you should make double what your making now!😃! This boat is nice - I enjoyed seeing the interior of the 🛥. However; and I know inflation and demand has sky rocketed prices but 1.8 million?!?!? Way too much! By the time this 🚤 reached the water 💧 you’re looking at 2 MILLION- easy! Keep up the good work abd when you get that raise - I wanna see your 125’ yacht 🛥!?!?

An unusual design but quite likable, only thing is the fuel range even at 8 knots, they have to improve this or the boat will know every fuel fill-up in the Mediterranean after one cruising season.

The Pardo 60 is better than the Pardo 52 though both are great yachts. But they both are much better than the Invictus TT460

For £1.8m I wouldn't accept the VIP and Day Heads Shower arrangement. My preference would be a Fly delete on this boat and cover the roof in modern flush solar panels instead.

Are you telling me that €1.8 M don’t buy you a grill 🤯?

I think Galleon did it better. But this is still an excellent boat with an excellent pedigree and proven record for toughness and reliability p.us fantastic build quality. There are some detractors talking about the rooms, but that is owners preference in most f those cases

Nice boat but it faces stiff competition from better boats

This boat is not very impressive. I don’t think that they will be around much longer as there are definitely many better options for the money.

This boat offers Italian beauty and the entire Volvo/Garmin package with all the latest tech. It is built like a tank and can cruise over 1000 miles on a single tank. No other 60s in this category can match it. Well done Pardo. I can’t wait to see the 72 and the 75 the industry is already talking about.

So much thought into the master cabin! Looks great. Too bad the flybridge, gunwales, and just about every area of exterior seating wasn’t thought of at all. And that saloon 🤮 - not sure what these boats go for, but if it’s anything above lower tier - sorry to the new owner!

Thumbs up for the video, I'm not so sure about the boat. Somewhat irrelevant as I don't have that kind of money. Apart from that there is nowhere to store my spinnaker or storm jib.

Single beds for the master, that's just very odd!

"Access all areas..." 1st sentence in description, crew cabin off limits. 🤦‍♂

Just a mention… you normally don’t swing the camera around to quickly. Makes for uncomfortable viewing.

How can you compare the Galeon 500 to this boat? Pardo is way more exclusive and elegant, considering either the external shape and the internal materials and architectural concept. They play in completely different leagues in terms of style and if you don’t realize that…well, then go for the Galeon (in you have the money obviously).

Endurance… Right. Not with those numbers!

YOU ENGHLEAS BIZAR FEAT ESCROC FROM 1 MILION 400 - TO 8 MILIONS WAT YOU BUY NADER 3 BOATS OVER DIS OR YOU NID PEY FOR DILER ESTRA 6 MILION ERO FROM BOAT GIZAS HWO BUY DIS

Instead of just telling us the features, SHOW US! Fold the seats down. Open the fold down cockpit sides. Lazy walk thru 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

That's not a yacht. It's an over-sized, over-priced aquatic SUV. Pardo needs to look up the word 'yar'.

This looks like a Bayliner design gone very badly.

Would never get a crewed boat, don't like the idea of keeping the skipper in a hidden cupboard like some accessory , that's the rich for you though,.they are arseholes!

These guys should be desperate for a professional camera man....years ago. If I was Pardo, I would have not allowed this to be such a low quality video, for a quality boat. Perhaps MB&Y should stick to ski and fishing boats with their KZreadr quality video.

They just get uglier and uglier.
