$900,000 Yacht Tour : 2000 Viking/Princess 22M 

Thank you for not editing the mistakes

I’d happily have an older boat like this, timeless classic and great value. Have a great Christmas Nick

Classic! All the curved woodwork was impressive. Quality and effort always diminish as time marches on. Thanks as always Nick and Maryann!

Can see where things have improved over the years with Viking and Princess, but also things have been lost, this has a certain charm to it. Love the access door to the crew area. Another nice video, cheers Nic

What a great boat for the price. Engine rooms tell a lot about the boats condition.

I love these "old" boats, so beautifully crafted. I've always been a fan of the interior stairs to the fly bridge. Love the office, great storage if you aren't using it as office. Not a fan of crew area access, but you use the space you have. Oddly, my first thought was getting laundry down, then realized the conveniently placed emergency hatch. Thanks for another wonderful boat, Nick.

What is undoubtedly the most stand-out part of this lovely vessel is the fabrics on the beds and curtains. Very original to the time the vessel was built. Psst, Nick: great job as always and thank you!

Gorgeous interior, looks very spacious for an old school boat of that length too.

When preparing a used yacht to sell, there are several ways to erase the years of usage though cleaning, sanding, painting or replacing. The one area that can't be faked without a total 'reman' is the Engine Room. When the bilge is NOT stained, but clean as new, that is indicative of the care the boat was given. This vessel had care AND a superior build quality. Compared to similar vessels - this is a BARGAIN. Thanks to all who have cared for this boat over the years and Thank you, Nick for a very nice tour. And Merry Christmas to you BOTH.

Absolutely original - you could tell it has never been updated from the first minute with the CRT TV and VHS video recorder. The question is whether to spend about half the purchase price getting it up to date or whether to maintain it as a rare example of un untouched turn of the century motor boat

Awesome Princess yacht, so incredibly beautiful, elegant and comfortable for a family to spend time on the seas. It still upholds and sets apart British Princess yachts craftmastership and boat architecture from other yachts, still to this very day. This 'October Princess' has matured well with the times. A most interesting tour, Nick - we loved this one. Ciao from Italy 🇮🇹, and God bless you and your Princess, Amén!!!

That sliding table is smart one

Some very serious quality going on there. Beautifully laid out, clearly very comfortable and with pretty energetic performance too. An excellent tour as always; thank you very much Nick.

CRT TV and VHS player really help give you that classic vibe

What a beautiful boat, very well kept. I think I’d be very happy cruising in her.

Beautiful Nick. I love this era of Princess/Fairline/Sunseeker.....I am a sucker for varnished cherry! You couldn't need more accommodation than that.

Very impressive engine room, not your typical 20 year old boat. The entire thing was well maintained! Thanks Nick!

What an absolute stunner of a vessel fair play, I've worked on boats that were brand new and not in this good of condition fine example of looking after what you own.

MORE!!! Love the older, incredibly well cared for yachts. Grand yachting that may not be in reach for most of us... but damned well could be someday!

Thanks Nick and Marianne! I'll be watching...

9:36 Beautiful fellow yaucts, weather and view, for a beautiful yacht to be.

Very cool! These older yachts really show how much has changed over the years. Can you imagine putting THREE interior staircases into a 70 foot yacht these days?

7:29 Yes, really cool little office room.

Following on from Sunday's bond boat I wonder how much this would be transformed by some matt Wood finish and a few focused modernisations. Cracking boat!

I love when you say “I will edit that out later,” then don’t! Good form, Nick. Good form!

The engine room looks brand new . A much loved vessel indeed Nick.. Thanks for the tour.

Denison yacht brokers certainly have some stunning yachts for sale nick, perhaps you may get to do a tour of an Outer Reef while you are out there as it wasn't possible to do on your last American visit due to covid-19. It's a stunning yacht for over 20 years of Age and a engine room that was immaculate wow!

That looks in great condition for its age, love the owners cabin with secret office. It does look a bit dated but I call it elegant. Great video Nick thank you.

Loooooovely, so nice to see the classic styling rather than the modern IKEA look.

Some new carpets and upholstery and you're good to go. Really love those older boats, with different layouts. The quality of the woodwork definitely was a lot better than it is today, in terms of the thickness of the veneers.

10:23 Corr! Check out those big deck lockers!!!👍👍

Great price! Check service records to make sure those pretty engines aren't just flipped (painted to look nice but run out inside). It could use some refits but even then it should be able to serve well for another decade or so! Thanks for the tour!

Hi Nick, oooh thats a nice start of this Tuesday this Viking/Princess from 2000 a mini Superyacht great I love those curved lines that we don't see any more with the nice salon galley and dining four cabins the ony thing why we call the second best room the vip there is not always a vip on board is the word suite not a better word for it but a great master full beam with a tub nice and yes there is a office Thank you Nick a great show ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Big boat for that money, and all the important stuff looks like it's in really good shape. Nice!

She looks ready to go on her new adventures. The layout is excellent, and even if the decor is more 80s than noughties, there's nothing that a bit of sandpaper wouldn't fix.

This is my dream boat. Love the oval shaped windows and the overall 2000s princess style

That’s a seriously enjoyable tour! Your enthusiasm really comes through and made it brilliant to watch. The yacht looks in brilliant condition, although a little dated rather than classic in places.

Love that curved wood furniture! Older boats have a bit more class in my opinion.

What a BEAUTIFUL boat this is! Fantastic and welcome to the heat of Florida (even though it's not ~really~ hot right now!).

Always great to see a classic on AQUAHOLIC and what a boat this is! Brilliant tour thanks Nick.

The crew quarters give me a claustrophobia vibe and the bed covers seem outdated. Aside from that, she looks great! I like the idea of plotting world domination from the 'hidden' room. 😀

Those engines must have been reworked and repainted. They were absolutely beautiful! Looks like a nice boat for the money. Mary Xmas Nick!!

wow does this bring back memories. i used to work for viking yacht back in that era. i worked on a ton of these boats. havent seen one in 20 years

The interior is holding up beautifully. It doesn't look too old in its style. But not new. Just lovely. Merry Christmas Nick & Marianne!

Gorgeous twenty something luxury yacht. I bet it runs like a Swiss watch.

Lekker man lekker 🇿🇦

This reminds me of an old Jaguar with all the beautiful wood and upholstery and that's not a bad thing.

Again a beautiful oldtimer. Yet i see difference between the original princess and Viking. Many thanks Nick..

What a time-capsule! Not just the construction, but all original linens, etc. Very cool.

Thanks for upload and share your video , Superyacht Tour

Nice boat obviously been loved and hence looked after well. Great price too, still looking good for its age. Thanks Nick!

I like the 'old style' much better than the modern stuff. Interesting layout, very practical, and I just LOVED that little office 😊Very little space for crew, but I suppose many won't need any on a 72'?

Love these, very elegant boat. Old style TV and video player onboard, a real throwback

8:45 That barbecue would require to be either a pull out system, or have the white supports mast on either side to be redesigned, or moved entirely to stop the heat breaking the technology on the mast.

What I love about your tours is how you get into all the Nicks and Crannies ;)

Absolutely magnificently beautiful boat interior. I love it, for a warm climate.

Love the “usual “ “will edit this out later “ (and is always left 😂). Also change the TV to a modern comparable size one, and increase significantly the range of the boat thanks to the weight saving 😂

I toured that yacht as well (at FLIBS). Was very impressed with how well kept it was but didn't get a chance to see the engine room. Thanks for sharing!

“Don’t worry ill edit that out later” hahahaha, love you nick! Keep up the awesome content

It's no Gulf Craft Majesty 175 but Mr Burnham sir I do appreciate the fact that you show us the old/er as well as the new. I like to see the older boats as a comparison to what is being done today,as thinking and technology changes over the years it's very interesting to see how they delt with particular problems then compared to now,the difference with layout and way things are used and so on. The overall view on this boat for me is what a nice big chunk of yacht for the money and that owner should be proud of himself for the standard they have kept the boat incredible again Nick another grand choice and another grand tour thank you ❤️ Aquaholics as ever 👌🖖

Really Beautiful Viking Yacht plenty of wood Old school it looks More expensive than it is BIG THANKS NICK BRILLIANT VIDEO. YOU ARE THE BEST 👍👍👍👍👍🚤⛵

Unlike wines and whisky I liken the nostalgic ramblings of some things, akin to waxing eloquent of 1800/1900’s dentistry tools that could be ordered from the Sears Roebuck catalogue. Have a wonderful week.

Not shabby at all. Think you Nick.

Love the interior of this era.

Ha! That's the first time I've ever seen you put the camera down.🚢

Such a clean boat for the age. I was just getting out of yachting when this was built. I remember being on these when they first came out and the owner bought it because he loved his 52' Viking but wanted to upgrade to this and knew it was built by Princess, but Viking told him that Princess only built the hull. Everything else was Viking. Not sure about that, but inside does look like Viking. Right down to those round beds.

Like I said it looks like the owners took really good care of the boat and for the price that you mentioned I think it's quite Fair

13:57 Great engines.

Dish washer is a trash compactor if you use paper plates. Glad you leave in the miscues so we can have a smile.😊

Excellent tour. For being a 20+ year old boat it looks pretty great. There is a lot to really like there. Thanks. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

Amazing! It's almost like being in a time capsule that speaks of the tastes and wisdom of that era. I'd reckon it would be a bit of a shame if her new owners were to modernise her interiors after the sale 🤔 But nothing to stop them if they do, regardless. Thanks for the tour, Nick!

I like this yacht very much.

Did anyone else notice the hat in the fridge…Beautiful Piece of Art amazing boat

Wishing you both a great Christmas Nick,and to everyone else.

Requires a smidge of updating, maybe but that really a matter of taste. Love it though. Thanks for sharing and Merry Christmas, Nick.

Quality never goes out of fashion. Beautiful wood work. I hope you have asked Santa for something nice for Smugglers for next season. Enjoy the Christmas.

I love the woodwork on these older boats, looks gorgeous. This boat is just about perfect with 3 crew. Thanks Nick. :)

What a machine, lovely. Thant you for that cosy tour of very well maintained Yacht 😀

Gorgeous Ship, really impressive in many ways Nick, and it is clearly loved and properly Maintained to be aging as well as she is. Best Wishes, and a Very Wonderful Christmas and an Outstanding 2023 to You, Marianne, and to all. Bob. 👍🎅🔔🎄🍻PS. Keep Warm, there may be a Very nippy Arctic Cold Front heading as far as South Florida apparently, oh and while there, try a tot of Jack Fire, it's a very Christmassy drink. 🍻

Lovely boat Nick Happy Christmas to you and Marianne I’m looking forward to seeing your blooper video over the holidays

Wishing you and Marianne a very Merry Christmas

It's a lot of boat for the money and beautiful quality

Hello. Beautiful yacht! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🛳🛳🛳🛳🛳🛳

Wow.... a very impressive yacht... a little bulky interior for my taste, but I guess a bit of money and a visit to Setag could modify that, but truly a very nice yacht. Actually one of the best I've seen from around the year 2000. Merry Christmas to you Nick, and to the rest of the subscribers of this channel

Staggeringly beautiful interior with enough glossy cherrywood to keep me more than happy! Fabulous layout perfect to live aboard! Ahoy Nick! 😃

Excellent condition!!!!!

To be honest, I would much rather something like this at that price than anything I have seen that is much newer up to the $10,000,000 range. This is far more useful and family/friends friendly. It allows great space for interacting with others and also wonderful spaces for privacy when desired. The price is unbeatable for this great design!! Great boat and great video Nick! Merry Christmas to you and your family.

i love this one nick needs a little seataging but so lovly

Wow love that boat

Great tour Nick and a very nice yacht 👍🏻

Love it Love it Love it

That's a lot of boat for the money. You had to like polished walnut back in the day didn't you?! I love the dining chairs - straight out of a curry house!

Awesome as usual, thanks nick, Happy Christmas to you and your lovely Wife have a great time. Much ❤️

Beautiful vintage yacht although as a fan of 'old' Top Gear it's difficult to take ruched leather seriously. Another brilliant video, thanks.

Great tour! Very nice yacht! That engine room is amazing! 👍👍 Keep rolling!👍👍

A great boat for 20+ years old and a good price too. Refit for me would be remove dining area to extend the galley area and make the forward 'snug' the main inside dining area, nothing else needed for me.

Another brilliant boat and merry Christmas ⛵️🛥️🚤👍👍👍👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fascinating to see how boats have changed in 20 years. I think the biggest advance, oddly, is the glass.

Hi Nick, Great vid. Thanks for doing these. Cheers 🍻 Mate.

Whilst I don't have £900k for a boat - blimey that's a LOT of boat for the money. I think all it needs is some new leather in a couple of spots and some new carpet (or replacement hard floor) and it would be absolutely perfect.
