I vote this couple as the coolest Nordhavn couple ever. Thank you so very much! I do wish I could own one.

Best Nordhavn video not just a video showing all the comforts but more of an engineers video.

Seems like the Skipper runs a tight ship and keeps his vessel in tip-top shape.

I enjoyed following you all through the South Pacific. Great explanatory video on how a Nordhavn works, especially the unique features that Dirona has. Thanks for sharing and the best to the both of you.

Love your forethought on the extras! Great job and boat. Thank you for the tour.

Nice. Happy owners. Great to see an owner know so much about all the systems.

Love this guys knowledge of his ships systems and the level of redundancy built in the ship systems. I'd feel pretty comfortable sailing with these two. Saw a Nordhavn video randomly appear in feed and haven't stop watching videos about them.

Very kool! More like these, please! Real interaction with actual owners who really seem to love their boats...👍🤙

excellent set up, you guys really thought it through, very practical, a place for every thing, and every thing in its place!!!!!!

Wow! So well explained! These are the kind of things that help dreamers become owners! Amazing video you two! Thanks for not showing us another table!

Great video. A pleasure to listen to someone who knows what he/she is talking about. It’s always better to hear from someone who actually owns a trawler, rather than a well-intentioned KZreadr who borrows one for a few hours.

This was more than just an advert for a motoryacht, so well done to you guys!

great vid - nice to see owners giving the more practical insights

I am helms detail person and this 52 helm is a CAPTAINS DREAM:) The ability to see everything at a glance to include the outside, bak system display in the sleeping area, great helms balance with systems on the ground level, mid is the maps, radar and top ceiling layout, great layout. I never miss a boat /yacht show and this helm compares to yachts that cost five million dollars! Im not sure what this one cost, but in my opinion new its about two million.

Outstanding video and brilliant ideas for design improvements. Love what you have done with the distributive control system design!

What a beautiful yacht. Also helps to be one of the most brilliant engineers in the history of mankind

Hope your trip up through Norway and higher up went well, been trying to keep up with everywhere you have been to. So many amazing places to go and see, and your N52 has done it all.

Very well done video. Practical knowledge and insight. Thank you.

Great to get tips and experience from a technically savvy seaman/owner. Great galley tour.

These people are the coolest ever. So smart and created such practical solutions.

Great video, more like this please..

I just met you, I love your home so I subscribed and gave you a thumbs up. Sail safe.

Great vid. I like how you explained the details.

If you are interested in learning and watching their travels the MV Dirona website has proved to be absolutely amazing to me. I have it bookmarked and am currently reading through their entire odyssey. These two are a well oiled machine and the improvements they made to their boat will be the first thing on my mind when I travel down to Dana Point to discuss my boat purchase.

I love your educational advice, thank you!

Really good video!! Well done !

Good information and a lovely boat.

Brilliant video thanks so much.

Well done, enjoyed your video, very informative.

Excellent Video!

I would enjoying seeing more videos from these guys.

It was very cool to meet you in person guys on the Miami Yacht Show

This couple has life figured out!!! True experts at the cruising life. He is way too smart for me. I’d have to bring him along with me if I’m ever able to buy a Nordhavn !!!!!!

Great video, very informative.

More videos like this. great job.

I would think Nordhavn would implement your electrical changes as the inverters would supply consistent power and the chargers would deal with the varying voltage issues at marina's. Very smart change.

You guys really have it figured out.

I like those boats, I'd like to see a video or her in some heavy seas! Great stuff

Very good video series. Very good narration. I appreciate your clear description of key features and your modifications. Your voyages are admirable. Thanks for sharing your experiences.

now that's a hell of a boat

Great video!

Brilliant video. It is nice to get a run down on the 'tech' side of other boaters set ups. Clear and precise. Absolutely love the crane - what a piece of kit. The reach out is superb. Can't understand all the 'down votes' . Hey ho. Keep it up.

Very nicely done

Love all those changes but the decision to pump fuel. I would have stuck with the gravity fed. I assume you have a pump and backup for each tank? Great to see an owner know so much about all the systems.

another good one. thanks

Oh shit! It's James Hamilton!

These two are smart and self-sufficent. They made some great changes to an already great boat. I would feel very safe boating with them.

Your boat and your knowledge thereof are impressive:)

So if the transfer pump fails do you have back up transfer pump, or do you switch to gravity feed?

Beautiful ship.

I'm impressed with his knowledge of his boat

beautifull boat

I’m sure many boat owners exist out there that do not understand the technical side of things like this couple obviously does putting themselves and others in great danger. I really enjoyed the walk through on the technologies this Boat has built in. Incredible. Such a strong looking Boat as well.

Awesome boat! The main engine is that a upgrade and if so what is top speed and cruise speed,mpg at cruise? Thanks

Best technical video ever.

GREAT video...Very informative...If you ever need a deck hand PLEASE let me know...Ive worked on the water most my life here on Kent Island Md. Crabbing, fishing, clamming , ect. but i dont have the experience of blue water sailing and im PRAYING to buy me a sailboat soon and travel the world ...Im going to do it regardless. Saltwater flows through my veins and on the water is where i belong. I just feel i NEED this experience before i go !!! Your a smart man and though im not a teacher im a damm good learner ...God bless and fair winds !!!

I spent a few years on that symbol growing up. Small world!

Most likely one of the best, most involved built Nordy yet.

great video how many miles?

Nice boat and cool tech! I wonder, curious actually, do you have any mechanical devices like a sextant or compass in case something goes wrong?

I would love to know her tip for preserving lettuce.

She says it's the Subzero design! They are top shelf equipment for top shelf houses, so no surprise really

Great boat, great video. How do you afford all of this?

WELL DONE thank you al.

You know when they say "Six weeks out of Cape Town" and later on "Helped out a Nordhavn 62 in Brisbane".....that they were doing exactly what this Nordhavn is capable of :)

how long does it take to learn the power system, all the switches etc! great video and safe travels :-)

Love your Yacht! A question regarding pod drive! Can it be controlled by Auto pilot or manual? Can you switch back and forth for Docking in windage? A great back up!

In my business we use a remote management system to monitor servers and networks that will not only alert us of a problem but a potential problem so then the administrator can get ahead of something and keep it from becoming an issue or dismiss it as being benign... it all depends on how it has been configured. Would you say that what you're using to manage the boats systems is very similar?

Casal, mantém a aparência épica, acho incrível. Abraços

James - great video and thanks for the effort to post them. Q - have you considered a multi-relational database database for your data mining? Assuming the existing flat database is deep enough to warrant the effort. Thanks again!

Awesome, video! Is there no sink in the day head? 6:45

Dang! That’s a cool 🚣

Greetings from Vancouver Island. I live on Discovery Passage and I love seeing Nordhavns go by. My favourite so far has been the Tofield's 52, without the flybridge. Do you have problems docking your 52 because you obviously have more windage? Also, does the John Deere, you have, perform better than the Luggers, economy wise?

Excellent video and explanation. I will throw in a few bucks for hair cuts.

Wow that's nice

Since you take long trips have you considered solar or wind generator for emergency power in the event of catastrophic failure?

hair almost as awesome as the yacht

1:45 I wonder if we can implement machine learning algorithms on the relational database you saved and try to predict future problems before it occurs.

Beautiful boat, beautiful life...what size boat rather yacht do you suggest for crossing or going from Florida to California?

These owners KNOW what they need. Awesome.

In the sense where you gotta rely on something, its great with redundancy, fuel managed in a safe way and electricity hmm where was the solar & wind power? Anyhow lovely presentation

Some yacht features more than whole tour. Thanks.

wow really nice sett up. you must be an engineer or something like that. question do you spend more money in fuel or shampoo? hahahaha just kidding nice boat.

Groovy bladder pump system. Please disregard my prior question on another video of how that is done. 😉

Are you two going out for more adventures soon ?

What sort of range does it get with 10% safety?

While running at about 80 to 85 % throttle , how many Imp Gal does she consume in an hour ?

You have only one engine? Can the wing engine propel the boat in case the main one fails? Great vid, wonderful life!

Where did you get the second alternator mount for that 6068?? Is that John Deere part, or did Nordhavn fabricate it? Maybe a third party vendor? Any info would be great, thank you.

Where can I get more

We might get a Nordhavn 64

What are the crusing ranges of boats like this one ?
