The Most Capable €1 Million Boat You Can Buy? | Sargo 45 Explorer
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Is this €1 million flagship of the Sargo range, the 45 Explorer, the ultimate all-season boat?
In this in-depth review, test drive and walkthrough, Jack Haines experiences the 45 Explorer in home territory of the Finnish archipelago to see how the boat performs in the environment it was made for (even if it turned out to be a little too calm!)
The 45 Explorer is available with sterndrives or IPS, the latter proving the more popular option in the boats built thus far. It’s capable of around 36 knots flat out but it’s the efficient cruising performance that really stands out. She’ll cruise anywhere from 15-30 knots and still maintain a range of around 400nm with the optional 2,000-litre fuel tank.
On board, there is the option to have two or three cabins on the lower deck, the former granting more space to the owner’s cabin and ensuite bathroom, forward. The three-cabin version is popular, though, as it provides comfortable and private sleeping space for six adults.
The level of practical detailing is truly outstanding, as you will see throughout the tour. It’s a lot of money for a 45-footer but the Sargo 45 Explorer is one of the most capable boats you can buy at this size.

What is the air draft (bridge clearance) for Sargo 45 model? I can't find the air draft spec in your review, is it suitable for inland europe waterways such as in france, thanks
Pilothouse doors,safe comfortable excellent bow seating,and also very important feature overlooked by most builders is the extended aft hardtop .Totally awesome boat!
The Mary Poppins of boats - practically perfect in every way. Excellent tour as well. Midweek lottery this evening, so everything crossed!
Came for the 'boat I'll never afford' but stayed for the drone shots. Whoever's flying your drones for you is a bloody legend.

Great video. One of my favorite boats. The other is the Targa. They make great Chesapeake boats. The build Quality is outstanding
Definitely need a bigger sea review of this boat! Looks amazing but concerned it may be a bit high CoG compared to other Finnish boats. Also an update on the flybridge option that is supposed to be coming out. Also, do we know if they have plans for outboard engines? Torque would probably be a challenge but seems like everyone else is doing it…
Very nice yacht! Lovely boat, great performance, and a very elegant and thoughtful design.
Excellent presentation sir. Calm, clear, concise, and a pleasant voice.

Seemed really good and unbiased review. My friend has propably done some wood parts in the boat. He is carpenter at Sargo.
Nice! Thanks for the tour!
Brilliant boat and great review. Perfect boat for where I go boating and if budget allowed it’d be on the short list for sure. I especially liked the washing machine, but would have liked more detail; brand; spin cycles; washing capacity etc 🤪🤣
My husband and I toured a 45 Sargo Explorer earlier these year (I think February) at an exhibition. They are very impressive! Expensive though, but looks worth every dollar, especially in person. Wow it looks very stable, at speed! Our new home has it's own dock perfectly suited for THIS vessel lol This wouldn't look out of place as a police/coastguard patrol vessel, without the swim deck on the bow! I really did fall in love with this vessel! I have Googled it regularly since we seen it lol. Sending hints🤣. My husband prefers sailing, but not me. Too much work lol Excellent quality video too. Thanks!

I do enjoy your reviews. As an english channel user it would be really useful to see a comparison in more difficult conditions with say a Nelson or Lochin or other semi displacent boat. But thanks for not choosing only marina queens to review.
Very nice!! And very practical, indeed!
Nicely shot video!
Another awesome boat and vid, im going to watch the targa vid again to see which I'd choose. 👍❤️🇬🇧 Edit: i would choose this sargo over the targa, it just seems better thought out, as great as the targa is, sargo pips it to the post for me. 👍
Another big plus on this boat is the foward seating arrangement to comfortably seat 4,a lot of new boats out there have ONLY captains double helm seat which is fine if your with your mate on a date,but kinda cruddy if with your buddy,like on the marquis 40 by carver or the new 41 nordhavn and many many more that are really designed for dockside entertaining only
Great content and presentation.

If I had a million I would hang up my sails tomorrow and buy my first ever motor yacht. As retirement time is here I could spend months in the Baltic or Eastern Med on one of these. When you see dayboats at one million plus this seems like a well priced proper yacht. Sadly, if I was to sell my ageing Beneteau, I might get the price of a Seakeeper for one. Loved the video and I hope we can see one in more challenging conditions one day.
Great tour, Jack. Fabulous boats and, compared to most boats, very reasonable in price. In my opinion of course.

could you show us it in rough weather so i can we can see really start to see and get a sense of how capable it really is.

Hi Jack, great tour as always, got a few questions for you. If you had sterndrives fitted would you still be able to opt for the joystick system also if you were ordering one of these would you have sterndrives or IPS and why? Thanks 👍
@colinkemp3016

Joystick docking is available for the Sterndrives. Pretty sure IPS650 are the 480hp engines rather than the 440hp as shown on the graphic.
@Yachtbuyer
11 ай бұрын
Yes, you can have the joystick with sterndrives but in my experience it isn’t quite as smooth as IPS, though it’s a lot better than it used to be. I’d personally go for sterndrives as you save a few quid and I prefer the handling. Plus you can trim them up in the shallows - Jack

The boat is beautiful only problem I see is the Volvo 650 engine which here in Melbourne Florida the marina either send them out to be rebuilt or replaced due to heavy engine where strange that he’s replaced three within the past 15 months in Florida.

Lots of good ideas, however things like the raised storage in the cockpit to “put shoes or storage” is never gonna get cleaned (why most don’t do it) and the flip down foot rests at the helm seating are gonna break quickly, the little hinges won’t hold much weight be inevitably will. The use of all the gas struts to hold open windows etc will give out pretty quickly, as will the little arm rests at the dining table. The folding lawn chairs in the cockpit will wear out/mark/scar/eat up that finish on that deck quickly and they look chintzy for a £1,000,000 and decking is costly to repair or replace. The lifting mechanism dining table will wear quickly, and the fabric on the cushions, though looking beautiful, will wear quickly, tweed is not a durable seating material and will stain quickly from the inevitable spill (it’s a boat. There will be spillage). A leatherette or similar material would be much more practical, look great and spills won’t be an issue. The carpeting in the staterooms is a huge mistake (yes, I know, it’s snap in/easy in/out) the snaps inevitably foul, the carpet is hard to clean/traps dirt and hold moisture no matter how diligent you are in tending to it. A hard surface (real/synthetic) is a much better choice. The wood paneling, finished fiberglass walls are top notch, beautifully finished and make the spaces really feel luxurious and the light color gives it a sense of more room than what’s there, fantastic job. The engine room is a master class on accessibility/function and will make servicing a breeze, and when it’s time to repower you won’t need a chainsaw to get to them. The tv is in an awkward position and needs some sort of assist mechanism and at 32 inches is well undersized due to the distance from the seating area. A larger on in a televator in a bulkhead would be a much better option.

Nice boat but it’s noticeable how much the prices of new boats have increased the last 5-10 years.. way more than inflation etc. Finnish and styling on this one seems nice but maybe not top of the pops.. personally I would choose a sport cruiser in this size any day of the week. For a more commuter type of boat like this I would choose a 30 footer
What are you actually using such kind of boats for? I mean I understand the usage of 40-50s sailboats, smaller boats like bayliner. But what is the usecase of such size ?
