Building SuperYachts | Documentary 

Tristan, being a former Marine Carpenter this video was so informative and so well put together. I hope you'll do some more of these.

Wow! Very impressed with this vid. The tour, the Q&A definitely shows how you wish to push your content. Please keep up the great work. I love all your vids. Family and business.

I'm a little late to the channel however, this is a great video. Really loved the tour of the UHV 87 you did with Mr. Chirakadze as well. I also love how he runs the show and knows all the little specific things about the yachts. Seems like someone that truly loves what he does and isn't there just for a paycheck. That means a lot.

I’ve gotta say, watching this tour here and watching guys like Alexei over at Bering Yachts (and a few other amazing boat building company facilities) be so open with these in-depth tours of the entire process with no restriction as to what’s being filmed, it really is a huge benefit to cementing the quality of their brand to the buying public of these vessels. In fact, allowing folks the opportunity to see and share in the enthusiasm these company owners display when digging into the deeper details of construction while delivering an obvious wealth of intimate knowledge of why it’s different is a special way is a very smart way of gaining the confidence of that very same buying populace. Very interesting and very revealing for these exceptional boat builders for sure. 👍🏻😎👍🏻

This video was so different to all those typical yacht videos out there , spot on Tristan enjoyed it from start to finish, a big thank you to George for letting us see this.

Mr Mortlock sir a very interesting and informative episode, I usually just click on vids before seeing the run time, when I realized this was over a hour I thought oh dam but I stuck with it and am glad that I did. Like you said a few times to see inside everything in such an operation like this was special,a big thank you to Lazzara and to you for bringing this to us,ten out of ten!🤗👌🖖

Thank you for showing us parts of places, processes and people we usually don't see on videos. And I'm glad to see her again explaining things.

This and the Delta walk through are absolutely the best I've ever seen. You are exceptional at revealing details.

The thought process of building with material with the goal of it never needing service is huge.

That was so awesome, bro! Congratulations on developing such a reputation in the industry to be allowed into places like this, and to be able to share with us. Thank you.

Unbelievable Tristan Absolutely amazed at the access they gave you. The boss was so open and proud of his yard. Thanks for this wonderful insight into the building process

Very informative... what a solid company!!!! Looking for great things from them in the future.

Tristan, you were so right when you made the comment about the Stainless Steel metalworkers being Artists, for that is what they, and their fellow Yacht building workmates are. A well-built boat is a piece of Marine Art in my opinion! When building/buying a Yacht, a seasoned owner (and new) will not be concerned with the ascetics alone (although obviously, how a Yacht looks, both on the inside, and outside matters). What should, in my opinion, be more important is how the parts connect, become the whole. One needs to be interested in the 'how' all of it was/is made, and then how it is put together (e.g. what keeps it in place etc). This means looking at the quality of the multitude of products made/created that make up the finished boat. We want to know things such as what Tristan commented on in respect to staff 'comfort,' not just in the various departments/offices, but on the shop floor. It is paramount tradespeople enjoy their working environment, that they have a sense of physical (non-cramped) comfort, and where possible, to remove all external/internal stress from their work area. Why, first, and foremost, SAFETY, not just in the work environment, but in the Yacht, the finished product. A happy workforce will generally translate into a higher level of quality construction, and finishing. Both the Yacht builder, and owner want everything to go where it should, to fit as it should, to operate as it should, to last as it should! If you skimp on any area, and I mean any area, you reduce the overall safety of the end product, and you lower the professional bar, once a bar is lowered in one area, it usually follows the same will occur in other areas as well. You must not do that when potential owners are putting the lives of their families, friends, and selves in your hands on the high sea! Reputation is everything in any area of life, George obviously knows this, appreciates this, as does Tristan, and anyone who enjoys the imbibing (in this instance meaning the imbibing of moral principles to ensure maximum vessel safety) of quality products as both George and Tristan clearly do! It also fits with George's intention that a Yacht skeleton will last forever. I believe that intention to be an honourable endeavour, especially when looking at it from a sustainability point of view! Lazzarra is clearly not a Yacht builder interested in taking shortcuts, from what I am hearing, and seeing, Lazzarra is fully innovation orientated with an intention of becoming second to none. I think a lot of us might agree they are well on their way to achieving that goal! Thanks Lazzarra for letting Tristan, and us in, I do wonder why it is so many other Yacht builders appear to be 'afraid' to do the same? I, for one, have always had the habit of trusting, and having faith in a product when I know that product's genesis! I like Lazzarra's ethos of openness, in this alone it already is second to none, it is the Industry Leader!

this is the reason I stay subscribed after your Captain days were over

Tristan, their teak decks are done similar to how teakdecking does theirs. We would fit boards into a jig and lay them bottom side up and then move the jig to the template. Then fit fiberglass mesh and epoxy over and vacuum seal it. The jig's they use are 40ft long. Next time you're in the Sarasota area you should ask to do a walk-through of the plant. They are located right across from the old wellcraft factory.

I did not realize until recently some ship yards had to have contracts are everything stopped. Seem like a lot potentially terrible scenarios could come from that approach for everyone involved. A very educational vlog. At the end I am sure the information was overwhelming from the volume and approach of the ship yard.

The facility is immaculate. It is interesting to see the detailed construction of the yacht and the organizational challenge of coordinating everything. Thanks for this video edit.

Best factory tour video I've seen covering superyacht design to manufacturing.

I'll admit I held off a few days to watch this video because of it's length but WOW so informative it was like actually being at the factory. Most of us never get to see behind the scenes, thank you and all the staff of this Lux yacht company.

The art of manufacturing a super yacht shown in this video! You can clearly tell that in this compnay the work is done the right way! Showing every place of manufacturing tell that they are proud of their work and dont have to hide nothing. This ship yard would have my trust!

Great job Tristan. This is an exceptional ability for prospective buyers to learn about the manufacturer.

This is great. I really feel like I went to yacht building school! Thank you so very much. 🍷 Cheers!

Interesting to see,a lot of these companies noticed the success RU-vid exposure brought to Bering yachts and are now trying to catch up with similar videos. I seem to remember just a couple of years ago, many were rolling their eyes when filmed for RU-vid. How things have changed. And all thanks to people like super yacht captain, nautistyles, aquaholic and David from yachts for sale. I guess a lot of buyers watch their videos. Which makes sense.

Great story telling, Tristan. Love George and would love to know more of his origin story. Amazing. He knows so much about every aspect!

Really enjoyed this video. Thank you to Lazzara Yachts and Tristan for sharing the factory visit.

Wow! This was a really interesting video. Thank you so much for organizing this trip for us! I find the whole process of yacht building fascinating. I really enjoyed your conversations with George and his staff! Love from Vermont

Respect ⚓️

Very impressieve company. Great tour to see all aspects in yacht building. Good job Tristan!

wow love the tour thank you so much for showing us this all access tour.

I love it It was so cool to see how it was made from start to finish WOW 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Great tour and presentation of the construction process.

I have that identical 3D printer I use to show students about the additive manufacturing process. RAISED 3D makes THE best 3D printer for full visibility from all angles AND you can connect to it remotely to see progress. LOVE that thing!! 😎😎😎

Great tour! Thanks for sharing! 👍👍

An immense yacht! Thank you for sharing!

Great tour of the facility and very clean shops, I bet those shop fellows had to clean a whole week for your visit.😁

Great CEO, he was all over the product,could probably build the yacht single handed in his sleep!👍

Another good video and lovely yacht 🚤⛵️🛥👍👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Back in the day I remember watching matlock..now I watch mortlock

What an amazing video. I really enjoyed watching it. Thank you for sharing. Looking forward to seeing the sea trial video.

Great 👍 video really enjoyed it you rarely see what a boat being built

Incredible Buddy, Thank you for showing me this, I’m now going to buy a Yacht probably 75’ 💯🙏🏻👍

Sure hope this company makes it for the long haul bc. truly next level implenmentation of design & engineering

Splendid trip and an amazing company. Love to work there

Fantastic build very important to details

Amazing content

Outstanding video to date. The information given by the CEO was impressive. I realize he is all hands on these yachts and he presented his product well. Your interview was great..hope to see this boat finished and a test done by you .

Nice tour, thank you Capt. T Cape Cod Mass. USA watching.

that was fantastic

Best video EVER!!

very impressive

Fantastic video being able to see the quality and craftsmanship in building these amazing yachts. If I were a buyer, it would be a Lazzara based on seeing this video. A little nicer than my 340 Sundancer. 😎

Very interesting thank you. I have a strong reservation with regards to a non flared bow, even smaller vessels with that design tend to submarine in heavy swell resulting in very wet upper decks.

I love Lazzara Yatch! 🤟👍

Missed this . Just for fun ,you could visit the original harbour.The same as I saw it 54 years ago .SS Uganda could not dock,we went ashore in lifeboats .If you go back ,there is a really cool amptheatre close by and walk in St John's footsteps.

The interest is present.

I could listen to her talk all day lol

I presume this video was done before the Earthquake? If so, I wonder if it's still there?

If I ever win the powerball

Something important to point out in that area they walked through just before the exterior painting rooms. Notice how all scrap and excess materials are intentionally separated and stored in independent lifting totes. When you see that sort of organization with the industrial waste or material scrap, you KNOW they are maximizing the reusability of that material. Either is being reprocessed in-house, or they are selling it as clean separated scrap. Sorta like the difference between just piling up appliances for scrap in bulk as opposed to yanking out separating, and stripping all the electrical wiring first so that you get 3 or 4 times the money for only 1/4 of the material weight. Just financially smart. 👍🏻😎👍🏻

Still unsure about the hull construction. Is it a lay up in a mold wirh a foam sandwich.

Tristan, so when you were captain of Lizzie she came out of the original shipyard in Tampa correct?

would love to see you interviewing SUNREEF and find out all you can about the 115' AeroYacht

That’s a really small wire room for such a large high end boat builder. Seen bigger at intrepid & contender

What's the oil change intervals on yacht engines?

👍👍👍

32:30 "Or just 40 metre boats" 😅 (we live in different worlds)

Hello Tristan, how much do you have a capitaine? (500UMS ,3000UMS)? And what is a jauge of the motor yacht awol?

There is a term “angle of vanishing stability “ which is the inclination on the transverse axis from which the boat will not recover. For a sail boat is 120 to 125 degrees, if the boat heels beyond this angle, she will overturn. Is there a similar term for motor yachts ?

they got nice bodies . but the guts suck now. that New LSX hull , bow , and rear platform wings n things with the Van Der Valk 660 beachclub superstructure would be a perfect Yacht For Many .

👏👍💯👌

Yes it is my details my head 😂

didnt know Lazzara was Turkish now

Hi Tristan. My wife and I will be traveling to the Cote d’Azure and will be going to the Cannes Yachting Festival on its opening day before we fly on to our next stop. I was wondering if you and/or Mortlock Yachts were going to be there so I can stop by and say hi. Are you planning to be an exhibiter? Thank you.

Hello, Captain Mortlock. I am a huge fan of your work. I have a question for you. Are you aware of a user friendly App that allows us to design yachts and/or super yachts on our computers or tablets? Thanks, Tony

37:50 what is a country kitchen?

O conteúdo é muito mais atrativo do que a capa. Tem poucas visualizações pelo tempo de postagem. Sugeria mudar o titulo e imagem de capa 😢❤

Great video but Tristan, you gotta keep your ego in check. ;)

About an hour too long. Good thing they didn’t introduce to the people on the street.

You smash bro?

Dude stop asking questions and when he answers you start talking and cut him off before he answers the question. You asked a question now let the person answer it. Mr Mortlock sit down and watch this video and look at you ask a question and when the person answers you interrupt and finish their answer. You talk when they are talking. And, you did this through the entire video. Sometimes it's good to listen and not talk. Do yourself a favor, sit down and watch you in this video.
