Super detailed reviews and sea trials of the boats that we sell, and general boaty videos. We're based in Northern Ireland. We buy, list and sell sports boats and motor yachts throughout Europe.
You forgot to mention the only and most important advantage of the duo prop! It eliminates the "wheel-effect" of a single prop. That's what they are designed for. You should know this..
Very informative! Interesting how the consumption is pretty much identical in slow 8 knot cruise and 18-20 plane cruise. I think that the bow thruster would work better if fitted with Sleipner SE50. It has more thrust, and can cope better with high wind.
Thats also my experience - think that prices will even go more down a bit. What would you think of a 2006 Galeon 380 with 2 D4-260 having 250 hours currently?
Galeon build a great boat. I’ve always been a big fan. D4’s are a great engine option too. As always on a boat of that age (even with very low hours) get a good survey done & make sure you’re buying the best condition boat that your budget will allow. Good luck with it 👍
@@peterholtei7018 i couldn’t guess without seeing the boat I’m afraid…. At that age (18 years old) it’s all about condition, service records, paperwork etc…. Sorry I can’t be more specific without seeing it. E-mail me more info at sales@gulfstreamshop.com if you like & I’ll try to get back to you. 👍🙏
What about new boats? Pricing have been going up like crazy the last years since Covid. Should I ask for discount or will the factory prices start going down now?
I think new boat prices will be slow to come down (if they do at all), but not expecting them to rise any further. Also keep an eye out for sales incentives / discounts / cash back deals etc. I would certainly be pushing for a healthy discount if buying a new boat at the moment. If buying a physical boat that a dealer has in stock it should be possible to get a very good deal.
@@GulfStreamBoats thank you. I have found a physical boat a Bavaria SR motor yacht already in the UK and it is brand new In boating terms what is considered a good deal please in terms of percentage discount from the asking price?
@@porschecarreras992cabriole8 it depends on a lot of factors - is it an unregistered new boat listed at rrp / is it a demo (previously sold boat) / has it already had a price reduction etc / etc Email me more info or a link to the boat to sales@gulfstreamshop.com if you wish & I’ll try to get back to you with a more educated opinion. 👍🙏
@@GulfStreamBoats hello. I shared already some links so could you please let me know your views? One is a 2 year old Bavaria and the other brand new in the UK
Just so you know bud that outdrive is called a Bravo 3. And it also provides for better maneuverability around the docks as well. If you have any other questions folks just ask me directly. Yacht broker out.
