€1.25 Million Yacht Tour : Prestige M48 

Well I am shocked!! This is Aquaholic for gods sake!! Do they not clear the decks for the best showroom in the buisness?

What a difference a clean sheet of paper makes. Everything is purpose built for a powered catamaran. And a fine layout it is at a mere FORTY EIGHT FEET! Clean design. Well appointed. Everything to hand. Thanks Prestige and you as well, Nick. Ahoy

Nick this is the first catamaran you have shown that really knocks my socks off. I love that it is purpose built as a motor yacht and not a conversion. My experience with sailing cats is they are a handful to maneuver in tight quarters and my marina charges a fortune for extra-wide slips. The narrower hull solves that problem quite nicely and still allows for the massive living space. The one thing I did notice was the fit, finish and woodwork isn't up to Princess standards but I'm sure Prestige can upgrade it. Lovely tour as always Nick.

Really like that one. Not too wide. Just right. Acres of space. I can imagine being aboard is very chilled and relaxed. Nicely fitted out. I agree with some others on here. Do they not know who you are? They dawdle about whilst you have important work to do. Peasants !! Great tour Nick.

Good job Nick! It’s too bad they could not have cleared the area for you but you adapted and overcame the challenges;-)

I loved the way you just waited patiently while those two guys walked over and stood on top of the engine cover 😂 fairly typical show stuff it seems.

After looking at so many multimillion dollar/euro/pound boats... this one gives you A LOT of boat for the price. I love it. I figured it would crawl along but 20kts isn't bad at all!

Hey Nick what a breath of fresh air and thinking that Prestige have put into the design of this yacht instead of narrow walkways and barley enough room to change your mind, what they have done is given oodles of storage space a light and elegant home on the water. Awesome tour as usual and have a great day bud 👍

Nick, from the interior layout on Prestige's website, it has a single birth crew quarters in the bow on port, with a head / sink / shower (?) on starboard. You can see the two glass hatches @ 1:34 I know from you said there wasn't one @6:57, but the layout diagrams say otherwise.

Really like the 3 distinct cabins! Gives everyone a little more privacy and separation. Always a huge amount of space on the main deck salon. Very nice boat! Next time use the ladder sir, it’s for your safety! Just kidding, you do what you have to do to get the shot! Thank you.

What an incredible use of space, Prestige have been super clever with their layouts and space optimisation! Great video Nick as always - thank you 👍

One can always tell how well the production is by the sheer volume of attention that it is getting. And this one is getting a load of attention. Brilliant as always! Thank you Nick!.

According to the layout on the website, there is a crew cabin and head on the front of the boat. I imagine it would be tiny, but you could use it for storage.

Love the layout, the owners cabin is awesome. You would have thought that knowing they had journalistic royalty reviewing their boat you would have had the red carpet treatment. I will drop them a line for you Nick

That's a lovely spacious yacht, great layout and finishes. Love the view from the upper helm. Great tour as always Nick. Thankyou

I do like this cat. Power is the way I’d go as with my disability, sailing would be a bit of a reach. Thank you Nick for another great review.

Like this boat. It's a real exercise in how to use every inch of the hulls. Lots of storage nice heads, and good size cabins. Like the front seating area with lots of room for people to spread out. Like this loads

That will be my boat! I should be able to afford a used one in about 20 years when I'm 80. Until then I can imagine myself on the water by watching these fantastic videos 😄

I love how large it feels at each turn. Beautiful. Thank you, Nick!

I see Nick, I click, I hit like, then I watch the video 🙏

it's really unfortunate that some boat tours don't afford you the brief time to do a walkthrough unhindered -- those are the best. when there's people constantly in the way or walking about, it's not nearly the same and the content unfortunately suffers for it.

This tour takes me back 2 or 3 + years when boats were full, and it was brilliant entertainment trying to guess which area you would go to next! Great tour even with more people on, and I am a fan of a purpose built motor catamaran as I’ve never seen one before. Thanks Nick! 😀

There's non as Noble as you Sir, I have been learning on your Videos for about 2 years and not one time have I ever heard you get upset with anyone, Thar was nice of you Sir to respond, I was having a difficult day and you made me feel encouraged by your comment, May the Lord Bless always Sir.

Always difficult when there’s so many people milling around, but, as always, you’ve done a good job. Interesting boat, though not as wide as I expected, it’s very roomy for its length. Decent layout, reasonable speed and range. Overall a nice, functional boat

Aloha; you had us worried for a second there as you "fell" thru the deck to the space above the engines! Mahalo

That's an impressive design. I like the master cabin with them separate facilities. Gray way to live. Thank you Nick..

The struggles of a RU-vid videographer are most entertaining! Like this one! Thanks

Now we know what it's like with a dozen guests walking about.I like this ship quite a bit.I wouldn't do that much mobile furniture,but everything else looked great.Thank you for all your efforts to inform us of these ships,and entertaining us too along the way.

I'm IMPRESSED with this boat. I'm Obsessed with this boat. I'm addicted to this boat. I will have one of these boats - (as a beautiful, professionally framed eight by ten picture on my wall) I swear!

Despite being a bit busy with some French people it was still an interesting tour of a beautiful catamaran from Prestige and 3 huge cabins which made the boat seem a lot bigger than it is nick.

I don’t know how you cope with so many people in the way of your camera. Well done!

That is the narrowest catamaran I've ever seen. the main deck feels like a big monohull... I have to say, I REALLY like it, it feels like a perfect mix of the 2. I do wonder how it performs in rougher seas, how much does the narrower beam affect the rolling? I'd guess better than a monohull but is it still as good as the more standard cats?

That rear lift is great I know someone who has been looking for exactly something like this for wheelchair access

Nick's Bilge Diving Academy YT Channel coming soon! Love these catamarans and the roominess. I'm fine with throttling back, extending the range and enjoying the ride.

Really well designed and put together, most usable Cat I've seen for a while. Great tour in busy conditions Nick 👍

Hi Hugo! Can’t wait to see Nick in MBYs video

Appreciate the tour, so busy love it none the less!

Well done again Nick . What an awesome use of space they have certainly packed in every necessity needed for a comfortable cruise .Well done Prestige !!

Hi Nick, excellent value for money! I'm glad you didn't discrace yourself and claimed out that engine space unaided 😎 that's a fab live abourd too ✔️ Cheers DougT

Dang it Nick just when I thought I'd finally decided what boat I want you go and bring this beauty along. Absolutely brilliant all round boat. From stability to roominess to accomodation it seems to have the lot. Another great tour old chap so well done once again 👍

Great video. Despite the boat being open to the public you still managed to give a great tour. If that boat was mine I would sleep in one of the guest cabine while at sea / anchor. Sitting up in bed with those views at eye level must be fantastic. Windows in owner's cabin are too high. Would be another story if you are in the marina and berthed next to other yachts

They definitely hit the mark with this one! The cabins are amazing for a cat this size! The lift is a smart idea I've only seen that done on one before this one! I'm surprised mono hauls don't do it! It still keeps the center of gravity down and helps keep it out of the sea. Great tour Nick! Do they have plans for a 60ft

Lovely boat for people that are not in a hurry. Great and very well enginered layout. More and more I think Smugles Blues III will be a boat with a flybridge. Nick likes this boat, but I wonder if Marianne can live a boat the can't offer her 30 knots. 😂 Great tour, thanks.

Thanks Nick, another great tour and well done with the overcrowded conditions, you finale made it to the engine compartment!

Hat's off to you Sir in giving a perfect presentation with a boat full of people, you have a great deal of patience. 🥴👍

What a terrific looking Prestige ! Some solar would have been nice to see on this, but... This could be a perfect live aboard. Always wanted a sailing fp around 48, but this Prestige is a game changer. Who wants to rely on the wind anyway?

Very nice boat indeed! I have to say I’m not a fan of catamarans but the more I see the more I’m beginning to like them, in particular the new ones, can’t deny the extra space. Another great video Nick 👍

Very very Nice. Catamarans are very intriguing and this build looks very very well thought out.

Been waiting for this video for a while!! Keep up the good work!!

I watched this on my free standing pod in the living room 🤪❤️. Really smart yacht, so much space. 👍❤️🇬🇧

Hi Nick. I never saw you filming more uncomfortably than today's video. It is just part of life and we have to assume it and live with it. As usual huuuuuge hugs from Colombia

It's a lot of boat for the price, but you can also see a lot of compromises. The cabins lacked decent hanging lockers, and storage wasn't convenient.

Great job navigating the crowd and giving a great tour Nick! 🌊

Great how you keep the "athmosfhere" of youre tours even with all those people around. Lovely boat far beyond my budget, but beautiful.

Tell you what....this with a hybrid system is getting pretty close to the perfect vessel ....thanks Nick.

Nice job playing dodge the journalist! That certainly looks like something worth investing in. Thank you for the great tour.

And here was I jumping on to say “Nick you’ve put the wrong thumbnail on the video” 😂 I had heard of the new m48 in name but had no idea it was a cat

The owner suite is mindblowing for 48ft. In the saloon may be too narrow for a cat. But nice layout overall

One of the best layouts I have ever seen. Now if I just had money 🤣

I am particularly not fond of catamarans, but this one is pleasantly surprising. Great use of space without compromising on anything. Thank you Nick~! :)

Very nice Nick! - a "cheaper" boat but wow! - the space! Most appealing.

Nick, thank you for the great videos you make for us, and for dealing with absolute idiots from people who come into the frame and have no intention of letting the working man go, I would have thrown them overboard a long time ago, keep rockin'!

Hi Nick. Fancy meeting Hugo. A cool power cat. Large spaces in abundance on a very busy boat. Great video thanks 😊 I'm thinking a tour of RY Britannia on the bucket list and the Princess 40M. 👸

Thanks Nic. A nice format, surprised there are not more powered catamarans.

That is the best cat I've seen. Great usable hulls.

Looks pretty nice! Keep rolling! Thanks for sharing! 👍👍

Love it. I think I'll buy one next week. Thank you Nick

Great design and with beautifully finished bathrooms.

Prestige is the Right Name for that Beautiful Yacht. Plenty of Space BIG THANKS NICK FOR THE BRILLIANT VIDEO. 👍👍👍👍⛵⛵🚤🚤

Very nice boat and video as always!

Love these videos brilliant thanks Nick and also I saw an article about you in a magazine and it was about you and Miriane cooking salad

What an amazing boat, thank you Sir Nick

Really liked this !

Beautiful boat. You should pull rank and kick everyone off so you can do an uninterrupted proper tour. LOL Thank you for the tour. well done.

Thanks again . Greetings from Marseille.

very nice just love the layout, looking forward to seeing the advancement of the cameraman designs in the future

Another great tour. BZ

Good space and a cost effective mooring proposition, not being overly wide with it…… pity you had to scrum with the riffraff (apologies Hugo 🙂)……. Be interesting to see a sea trial in a bit of chop…… I’m more into the displacement cruising speed, but I wonder how dynamic that hull will be…… it suggests the centre is fairly filled in judging by the master cabin ?? 😎🇬🇧

4:49 Could just imagine Nick's reaction if he encountered a visitor on the lu ... Well hello there, sorry!

Beautiful boat!

Does anyone else think that manufacturers should let Aquaholic do i video tour alone. After all, more people will see this boat here than at the show. Most folk at shows are just dreamers anyway. Give the man 10 mins alone.

That’s a really interesting alternative to mono hulls. If you don’t need to go above 16knots then it appears like a superb choice. The space was very impressive for ’just’ 48’ and unlike a mono fly bridge it didn’t look too tall. Plus the hulls seemed wider than a typical cat giving more space in the bedrooms? Curious to know how it would handle some less than ideal seas?? Sea trial needed Mr B……

Well Nick it's no Gulf Craft Majesty 175 but for a sub 50ft I like it,I like it a lot. I actually really like the splitting up of the heads and shower in the master cabin,motored cats are growing on me ever since you showed the Silent cats(love the 60). Shame about the crowd onboard so you were unable to go into your normal detail but you did a Grand job sir. Seeing you at a boat show I hope this means we'll be getting a super yacht or two soon, I'm getting withdrawal symptoms ☹️ but still love Aquaholics 🤗

That´s massive! Wow!

Well done, once again, Nick! Nice cameo by Hugo as well. Will you be doing (or have you done) a walk through of that Prestige X70 next to this M48?

Muy bonito. Gracias!!!😊😊😊😊

I like the centre master cabin, better executed than Silents centre cabin. Wonder what the next innovation in hi low bathing platforms will be.

Different but nice.. great room in the living areas and the master is fabulous.. Now if I could just figure out how to get the money...

Very nice boat!!

Awesome boat.

People really think they're invisible 🤦‍♂

That was a hard one. Well done 👏 ✨️

Prestige has created really functional Cat, I’m sure this design will be copied by others Large bedrooms say it all ! Thank you Nick

I hope they will offer a version without the master forward. I would gladly exchange it for a cabin like the that in the starboard hull and nearly double the amount of space in the saloon (and possible walk through access to the foredeck). One must also assume they will be revising that engine access - while there is a large void over the engines it cannot really be used for storage due to the need for daily checks or, when underway, much more frequent engine checks. Everything placed above the engines would need to be shifted to access and inspect them.

Now normally I don't like cats but this I would definitely have, I love the owners cabin and the fly bridge (something else I don't normally like) I just need my numbers to come up 😂

Perhaps I am missing the point (maybe for flexibility when docking), but I just can’t stand when a vessel has a port helm, either upper or lower. Aside from that, what a lovely boat.

Not a fan of divided head facilities as in that Master cabin; simple engineering can have a complete head in one hull and extra closet space on the other hull. I did like those visible curves when coming up the steps from the aft cabin. Nice! This may be the boat I get when I find that lamp to rub. Another entertaining tour!

I like the simplicity of the helm, i am not an engineering expert 😂

Nice that it's not a converted sailing boat. I do like catamarans - no need for stabilizers! But how does that front cabin work? It seems just a few steps higher than the hulls...

The designer should get a pay rise for this. A well thought out boat. Great use of the space provided for a 48 footer.
