€6.5 Million Superyacht Tour : 2000/2023 Alloy Yachts 40 Metre

Is this one of the most beautiful sailboats you've ever seen? This is built by Alloy Yachts in New Zealand. It's 40 meters long. It's designed by Ed Dubois. Have I pronounced that right? Probably not. But it is absolutely glorious. It's a proper world-girdling machine. This just took my shoes off. In fact, it has been around the world twice already. And it is an amazing, amazing yacht. Particularly the interior, but actually everything. Really everything. What I think I'm going to do is take you inside first of all and I'll give you the full tour. But yeah, this one, properly spectacular. So we will cover all of this. We'll do the whole of the deck area and so forth. But let's head down and in. Sorry about the music in the background. That's the bar behind us. Not much I can do about that. But I think you'll find when we come in here, this is where you get the first wow factor. You've got these big stainless trimmed curved glass doors. They open out onto this deck saloon. We have a broker installed for scale. This is huge. Look at this. Such a big, comfortable yacht. Now, we've got access down here. We're going to go down that way, but I'm going to take you forward first of all. We're going to do absolutely everything on this one, give you guys the full tour. You might notice there's a chair here, suspiciously looking at nothing, but in actual fact, this is all a little bit James Bond because if we spin that one up like that and then we twist this switch here, with permission, if you listen carefully, you'll hear the air rams. Ready? How cool is that? That's straight out of Roger Moore era James Bond isn't it and we've got more here and it basically means that the boat can be held from down here on a long passage and of course long passages is absolutely what this yacht is all about. Let's head on down again because we'll find this magnificent area down here tucked away. This is so comfortable, it's so lovely. Check that out. We've got a TV up on there, but actually there is a bigger TV that rises out of the centre of here, so if you want a movie night, that can be done, and of course this is dining over here. Very, very lovely. But look at the beam on this. As I say, she's 40 metres long. She's a really, real big sail yacht, and look at this lovely atrium and the amount of light that it throws down into this area. Utterly beautiful. Really, really nice. Okay, where are we going to go? We're going to go forward, first of all, which is all the crew domain, and then we'll work back to the guest areas and so forth. I'm not sure what's in here, so I'm going to have a little look. Ah, of course, it's the bar. Very important. Down here, we do have dayheads. That is tucked away on the right-hand side as we go down, so that's in there. But then, as I say, forward from here, all crew space. First thing we find is the galley. There is access from here, straight up onto the deck. You can see it going up. through there i'll show you the outside of that when we go around the decks we've also got laundry facilities down here and if we come right on back and round then you can see the galley itself is on this side really really good size look at that absolutely fantastic engine room access through there we're going to look at that in a minute a lot of refrigeration of course yeah that is a serious galley isn't it just superb absolutely superb let's press on a little bit further Mess area is here. Decent size, again, you know, it's a world cruising yacht. It's designed for long distance running, being out for a long time. So clearly you want to make sure this is comfortable. We've got the skipper's cabin here. That's en suite. We're not going to go into there. It's obviously very much in use, but I will show you the other two because they're a little bit tidier because they're not in use. There we are. That one there. And it has its own en suite. We've got a hanging locker here as well, of course. The loo is in here. A separate shower. The Ed Dubois Yachts, I'm sorry if I'm mangling the surname there, he does tend to concentrate quite hard on crew comfort, and that's why these are really big areas and they're very comfortable spaces. And again, it's own ensuite, so all of these crew cabins are all ensuite, thusly. And then the shower is in there. Nice, huh? Let's press on. Plenty more to see on this one. That is a nice crew space, without a doubt. Engine room. Now this is obviously, very obviously, a sailing boat. It's not a motorboat. So clearly there is an engine and it's a big one. But it's really an auxiliary. It's designed to get you in and out of harbour. Having said that, you know, if you'd be becalmed... You have got some serious motoring range to go with it and you have got a seriously big engine. This is a Caterpillar C18, it's 747 horsepower. We've got the generator running down here because the shore power's gone out, so I'll talk to you from here for a minute and just tell you that you're looking at about 13 knots flat out with that engine and a cruise of about 10. If you're sailing, decent wind you're pushing 14, 15 knots, but with the engine you keep the speed down for efficiency and then you're getting about three and a half thousand nautical miles of range. So that's just to give you the kind of scope that you've got with this one. Generators are in here, that's what's running at the moment, but this is a big space. Considering this is a sailboat and this is not the priority, you're absolutely not lacking. We can come right in through here, see how far this goes. The generator is running, so we won't stop long, but you can get all the way around this engine. We've got the workbench here, we've got the vise here and so forth. Another generator over on this side. And yeah, that's the main engine, just the one, of course, because it is a sailboat at the end of the day. That is the auxiliary. Good, let's press on. There's a big door here. We've left this open for the moment to make life a bit easier, but you can close that one, which pretty much kills the noise. And then we've got this door here as well. But I'll leave it as I found it. So this is normally, you wouldn't normally hear that when you're in here. In fact if I shut that one, amazing how quiet it goes straight away. But you can imagine with that bigger door shut, what a difference that makes. Good, let's press on back because we've still got guest areas to do and then we're going to take a wander around the deck and check all that out. But that, I think you'll agree, is genuinely spectacular. Let's press on. Look at this ceiling. It's fabulous, isn't it? And the floor as well, actually, is rather nice. We'll head on back, head on down. I'll show you these areas and then we'll head on out. There's a nice lobby area as you come into here and then we've got two guest cabins back here. En suite, of course. Very nice size. Again, we're back to the fact we're on a 40-meter yacht here, aren't we? So there really isn't much in the way of compromise, that's for sure. Let's come right on around. En-suite. And the loo and the shower is down there. Look at the woodwork in here. It is a magnificent yacht. Let's press on a little bit further. Same kind of deal, isn't it? Very, very similar. As you imagine, a ton of storage. So all these drawers and hanging locker. En-suite in here. Lastly, that It's a great space, isn't it? There is a small cabin in over on this side but having said that still a nice space and still with an ensuite and actually this is quite a nice cabin when the bed is when the bed is underway the boat is underway because the bed only has access on one side so she's healing that way you're pinned nicely in bed that's not actually a bad thing it's quite a popular cabin to sale this one apparently. AV equipment again and then as I say everything's ensuite so you've got So you've got the loo, you've got the shower. Open that one, yes we can. Nice, nice, and saving the best for last, owner's cabin, complete with its own private office. So there's a pocket door here that will slide out. I think it's clipped back at the moment, but that will pull out to close this off and leave a completely separate office area. Again, we're back to the fact that this is a world cruising yacht. You might want to continue running your business or your YouTube channel, and so you've got this space to allow you to do that in privacy. You're not kind of, you know, sat up at the saloon table trying to do it. And then back on through, that's where we came in of course. Check that out. That, my friends, is a cabin. Just superb. Little dressing table in here. Again, loads and loads and loads and loads of storage. It's all the way around. And a little nook to tuck yourself away with a good book if you get bored with the sailing and you want to come and tuck yourself away. Fantastic. Really nice heads in this one as well. Double sinks, the big shower down at the far end there. Fantastic. Can we open that one? Of course we can. There's that. What we've not seen is a mirror wave, that's because it's tucked away in here. And then we've got the loo over on that side. It is a superyacht sailing boat and that is a superyacht cabin. Brilliant. Okay, we're going to take a wander around the decks, show you all of that. That's pretty impressive and I think we'll have done it. There is an absolutely enormous tender on this one which I'm going to show you because Because that's a long side. And I'll also show you where the sailing actually takes place. So you've got the two helm stations here and everything is controlled from here. So if you look over here, for example, you can see we've got all the hydraulic furling all the way across here, thrusters, all that kind of stuff. Throttle control, the wheel itself, which is a work of art, frankly. And another one then out on the other side, but I'll take you back because I want to show you, I'm really hoping that doesn't get me a copyright strike that music, I'm going to speak really loudly just for a minute, talk over it without stopping, but here is the 18-foot tender and I'll show you where that goes and we'll head away from where the music's playing. It's got in boom furling, in fact it's got brand new sails on here, the captain was telling me earlier they've never even been used in anger, so all that's been done it's having new rigging so all these lines here But yeah, that is quite the rig. In fact, if we stop here and do this, you'll see what I mean. Look at that. That is immense. Yeah, not going up there. That tender lives up here on the bow. You can see the cradle for it. And this boom here will cancel the lever down, swing out, use the rigging to basically winch it on board. And then it's swung in and lowered into that position. You can see it actually comes all the way through here. There's even a little cutout to take it. that you can see so it can come right up forward that was basically the largest tender they could get on this yacht and it is huge brilliant let's head on forward again we've got the reacher forecastle and the blade foresail are up here it's all hydraulic furling again so that all powers in with those switches that we saw you can put a stay sail on this one if you want to and if i come right up to the very bow We'll get a real sense of the sheer size and majesty of this yacht. Look at that. Serious, serious kit. Beautiful. And that, I think, is about it. I think we've covered it pretty much. I didn't mention the aft beach club bit. I didn't want to stop down there with the music going on too long, but basically you might notice there's a fold-out transom and then there's lockers back there for scuba gear and all that kind of stuff. So you've got that going on as well. And that my friends is about the size of that. Massive thanks to Burgess, they've got this for sale. I'll put a link for those guys in the description and huge thanks to you for watching it. Let me know what you think of that one in the comments, then we'll catch you on another one of these real soon. Take care, bye!
