so what was the ship you got offered a job to captain but you turned down because you didn't like the manufacturer?

I love how the ship isn't your standard super yacht. It has so much personality.

My kind of boat. No flim-flam and poncing around, just a well thought-out seaboat.

​@SuperYachtCaptain If you have only 4 crew, who cleans the boat out of those 4. Presumably captain doesn't clean and engineer only does the machinery spaces. So that's a lot for the steward, unless the chef helps out?

@@PreservationEnthusiast I've run 90footers with just 2. You just have to be organised and flexible. The owners helped out with watches if necessary.

I am impressed with these crew spaces, especially that laundry room. Love that the engineer has that space by the bridge, instead of stuffed below decks in the engine room. Private being not leased I assume. I imagine the stress levels are lower not having to cater to unknown guests all the time. I glad to see you afloat again. I love your perspective and how you share your knowledge.

Thanks Tristan for the look around. Great seeing you in a captain's roll again.

This is a boater's boat! I absolutely love it. Your pride and passion for all things boating is infectious. These detailed walk-throughs are great, looking forward to the next one.

Would love to hear what each crew's role is on a yacht of this size

I bet nobody’s bored doing just one repetitive job all the time! This looks like an ideal situation for a reasonably energetic crew.

This vessel deserves high respect for beauty and function. Most importantly, she was built rock solid and has safely transported souls on journeys others wouldn’t venture.

In a recent video, you referred us to MY Loon. I watched one of her videos, and was surprised at the wide pillars between her wheelhouse windows, which significantly restrict the watchkeepers' visibility. The pillars would not have been a problem in the days when the only seat in the wheelhouse (of merchant ships and warships) was the Captain's chair, reserved solely for his use. Watchkeepers stood throughout their watches, and by standing close to one or other of the windows, they achieved unrestricted forward visibility. Because they were on their feet, they would tend to move around, facilitating the all-round lookout that is required. Indeed, OOWs were taught as cadets to move around to achieve this, particularly when masts, derricks, cranes and other parts of the ship's structure obstructed visibility, especially astern. The problem is exacerbated when watchkeepers are seated. The obstructions caused by the pillars between bridge windows mean that another vessel closing on a steady bearing (i.e. collision course) can be hidden from a stationary watchkeeper by one of these pillars until it is very close. It seems that yacht designers are oblivious to this danger. Radar has improved, but is still no substitute for looking out of the window: Collision Regulations still require a proper lookout to be kept by sight.

Love it when Tristan opened the cupboard full of tea towels. You could tell he genuinely didn't know what was in there until he opened it.

Thank you. Your one section at a time is working great for me. Looking forward to the next.

This was very informative, thanks for these type of videos. One thing that struck me is that you mentioned there's only 4 of you crewing the boat. It seems like such a small number based on all the tasks and jobs I would imagine you all have to do every day and how jobs and workloads are shared. Could you please do a future video where you break down crew allocation per vessel and how crew numbers are determined, based on size of the ship or whatever other criteria.

I found AWOL to be more of a floating boutique hotel/pleasure palace. This is a "real" seagoing motor yacht built for adventurous people who love the sea in all her moods, and want to travel to the farthest corners of the globe. She is a marvellous yacht built for real seafarers. In my opinion Tristan has graduated to the big leagues by taking this command.

Being a long term follower, he has had a very successful career in the Charter yacht business and was duly recognized for that effort. However, I am sure that is a very demanding business keeping the guests happy and pleased enough that they want to be a repeat client. The statement "follow the people, not the boat" speaks volumes to me. I am sure that this is a well-educated decision and can't wait to see what the future brings!!

An empty beer-can in the Fridge! You have to talk to your Crew!🤣🤣🤣

Very impressed by the laundry area. I've seen many tours of bigger yachts where laundry machines were jammed directly in the crew mess so you would hear them and smell them whenever you sat at the crew mess table. Although Espiritu Santo has a big amount of storage space for its size, it was clear in your tour that virtually every storage locker in the galley and laundry area were jammed full. So storage space is pretty much maxxed out. I think the precautions for offshore conditions in the galley and elsewhere were superb. I often wonder how well some "expedition" yachts with huge open salon areas and elaborate dining areas work out in rough conditions . Not enough handholds.

Not a bad laundry room at all. My laundry was in the engine room on my first boat. 😢

Using every spare inch of space efficiently. Well built

Another great video Tristan. Been a subscriber for years and its great to see you back onboard another yacht, particularly with this one being very different to AWOL. Looking forward to the engine room tour, and meeting the rest of the crew.

Excellent Video! You did it again! Thank you for sharing. Let the boss know we appreciate him allowing you to make the videos on his boat?!

Thanks for a great video, yet again.

Love the video! Thanks

Which do you prefer, being captain of a private yacht or a charter yacht, i would imagine there are a lot of differences? Love the new series, more informative, gets into the nitty gritty of the ship.

"It's not the size that matters, it's how you use it." I've seen much, much larger yachts that are poorly set up, while this looks to be well thought out. As I said on a tiny house video: anyone can design a 300 square meter house, but a 30 square meter home requires more thought and, specifically, dedication. Looking forward to the next video!

Tristan I have been following you since you took command of AWOL and has been enjoying you videos and nice narrative since the beginning. As I’m residing on the lake of Geneva I might come down and have a beer. I’m a retired officer in the reserve of the royal swedish navy, mine sweeping. Anyway I enjoy your work!

I get the sense that the owner is an adventurer and explorer. I'm expecting one video to feature the submarine!

That feels like it might be very tight for the crew. What kind of schedule do you work. I presume she isn't home ported near your private residence, so there must be a lot of away time. The life of a sailor has never been easy I guess. Thanks for taking us along.

Just a few things i notice Tristan one you may want to blur out phone numbers you never know whos going to call Ricardo and the worse i notice a unsecured beer in the frig i can secure that for you 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 be no trouble at all

7:53 Twinnings English Breakfast - yup, You have only best supplies

Just read through all the comments - and understand that all will be answered on Sunday - but hope there is "room" for your wife on your boat.

One thing I would love to learn about is the things taken for granted. Like the engine room is cool and I want to see, but what about fresh, gray, and black water systems? If the range is 4500 nautical miles, what about those things that you may need in week 4 being away from port? These are amazing machines but how well do they travel.

Tristan, any idea what type of wood is that down below? Looks like African Mahogany. Fair winds and following seas.

When one has reached a certain level in life, one feels free to indulge one's own taste, irregardless of label or what's in fashion. True wealth is liberating, that is obviously the preferred whiskey of someone on board.

You might want to check the seal on the fridge.

With only 4 crew how are the roles/responsibilities split? You have a Captain, Engineer, Chef and then the 4th person is deckhand/stew? or chef and engineer are also deckhands?

Hey skipper, I am really interested to know how you make 4 crew work. I am looking at buying a 27 metre yacht for charter, but having worked for years on bigger boats, if you have 8-10 guests in 4/5 cabins, you need a Captain/Engineer (in your case you are separate) chef, deck hand(s) interior crew etc. With hours of rest etc (a complete fiction in my experience) how can 4 crew take care of 10 guests and the boat is immaculate as they always are? Do you still have your charter and management company?
