James you tell everyone how it is in a language anyone can understand, that's why we love you and your informative tours. I love Fairline boats so much attention to detail put into their models, brilliant!

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

Thanks John

@pilotnelson4507 2 года назад

You have a relaxed commentary, bit of humor, plenty of good information and a trooper for a camera man. The T47 is a nice all around boat.

No disrespect to any other RU-vidr, however this is the only yacht channel to honestly present the realities of life onboard 9.5/10 🏅🎖🏅

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

Thanks Superyacht chef. I love to show how good or bad boats are 😀( and have a laugh)

@superyachtchef 2 года назад

mate - just finished a stint of 137 days of back to back charters. I'm in the market fir a UK based live-aboard, I'm all about the heads (bathroms), so your floss test is bangingly brilliant 🏆

To be honest, I'm not so interested in this boat as other boats you showed on the channel, but I still watched all of it because I like your walkthrough. One piece of advice, don't listen to your brother! Keep up all the good jokes! They are definately one of the best parts!

@kalmi0072 2 года назад

Thank you for your videos I love watching them I learn a lot from them. It would be great to do a Q&A video because I have so many questions. Is there a brand that you would say is the “most reliable”? Best value for money? How to transport a boat for example from UK to Croatia? What are the costs? Whats your best tip for a family of 4 with a budget of 200kEUR?

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

Wow ! Loads of questions . Dm me at james@boats.Co.uk and I will answer all your questions 😊

@EST3022 Год назад

Just came across this review. The Tiara 4700 Sovran from 2008 is a much better build. That engine room looks tiny. I like that it has straight vs V drive. Sightlines in the cockpit look obstructed as you appear to need to scoot down to look starboard and to the port (not just the turn). The galley sink bowls looked odd. Would have been good to see the inside of the garage. Walk arounds look very narrow - I can understand why a previous owner added a handrail. Thanks for the detailed review.

@oddjob4877 2 года назад

The problem with the Fairline Targa range was that the visibility was shocking and I’ve driven London buses that were quieter. But they do look pretty.

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

I think the viz is good but they are noisy - a small price to pay for exceptional engineering

@Whalebone471 2 года назад

You tell it how it really is 👍

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

Keeps it easy 😎

@aaroncheney8648 2 года назад

When I buy a boat I will buy one from you James.

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

Ah thanks Aaron 🙏

@patriciab3739 2 года назад

Brilliant Vlog James ! Nice boat, affordable for first boat. Was surprised at the space on this one. Thanks for sharing. :)

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

Really nice saloon too - thanks Patricia 😊

@gopher1471 2 года назад

Which is the better boat ,this or the Princess V47 in your opinion and why ? PS really like the colour of this one and how easy is it to retrofit the variable speed thrusters ?

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

Good questions. I prefer v58 to v47/48 as this is shaft and v48 is IPs. Yes easy to fit variable speed thrusters 😊

@aardvarkmindshank 2 года назад

Brilliant video. Very entertaining and a nice boat.

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

Thanks Aardvark - t47 is a great boat 🚤

Get the fenders in!!!

@davidantill6949 2 года назад

I know there used to be (it may still be there) a Corvette at your marina...not sure if it was a 32 or 320. Have you ever seen a Corvette 340 (the one with the full width rear cabin) or indeed had one for sale?

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

Yes I think we have sold one. Pretty rare beasts 😎

@davidantill6949 2 года назад

Presumably rare because, as a proportion of the purchase price, it must cost a lot to ship them in from the Far East. Shame the business and manufacturing left the UK 😞

@sharonbraselton4302 2 года назад

@davidantill6949 2 года назад

Great video, lovely boat but would prefer a flybridge. Love the way you blame the holding tank pipe after exerting yourself getting out the engine bay. An expensive way of washing the fenders but looks like fun. You have balls to go that close to the shore at high speed on a falling tide (either that or very good insurance) 🙂

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

Yes it was a falling tide 😂

@alexjenkins5632 2 года назад

Love your videos. Are you planning of upgrading your camera from an iphone?

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

I think about it - but (as you can tell) these videos are done on the hoof on location and I always have my phone 🤩

@richmiller2501 2 года назад

I gave it a like, as I like your videos. No bull shit. (ex; i hate these shower doors and they always break).. Honesty! Wife and i have been shopping for over a year once we were preapproved looking in the FL Market. we have seem to become picky (thats her not me). I found your Ch and said to her i bet he can find us a boat and will be honest to us.. we both love your videos. where you are away from OUR market place, if we were there, we would be working with you! Yeah your silly, but fun!!!

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

Thanks Richard. In England our customers like to be told what’s good and what’s not. They don’t mind making compromises so long as they know what they are. I have seen some US vids and they do say everything is great - so maybe you have better boats ? I am glad you like the vids - we have such a laugh making them 🥳

@DavesBoat 2 года назад

The air vents are older than the that they're from old MG Rovers :)

@tomdunn1254 2 года назад

Nice boat except for that huge sunbed which is a total waste of space. I would have preferred an extended roofline and an enlarged cockpit instead of the sunbed.

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

It’s sunny in some places Tom 😂

@skaneboating 2 года назад

Nice boat, nice video 😃👌 I remember a video of Nick handling a Fairline Targa 47, from the same finger i believe….

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

Yes exact same place!

@motoruss 2 года назад

Informative video, but the whites being blown out annoyed me. Need to improve video recording that’s all

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

Yes I will fix - someone told me what to do apologies

@jonaus6171 2 года назад

Nice boat, two big problems for Mediterranean use - poxy small side windows do not allow sufficient freash air when swinging at anchor with the roof only open a small ammount to keep the cocckpit shaded. Similar cheap poxy side windows on the 2021 Targa 45 GT too! Again, to save cost, bought in telesccopic bathing ladder with no above platform handholds - just watch a middle aged 100 kilo owner try to use them. Fairline still need input from actual Boat Users!! Thanks for the video. Captain Jon

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

Hi Jon - we can fit customised parts to solve both issues 😊

@Jack-ll7yv 2 года назад

Love these boats, debating on one of these or the V48 for next season. Currently have targa 40

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

Both great boats but one is shaft and one ips- depends what you prefer

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

@cjmac8233 2 года назад

GBP300k is a pretty competitive price for this size of boat no ?

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

Yes £300k is fair price and we include warranty and love part exchange !

@chelleroberson3222 2 года назад

Luv the way Brits call a grill a bbq 🤣🤣🤣

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

I can call it a grill for you Chelle 🥳

@darthkek1953 2 года назад

Ironically, both grill and barbeque mean the same thing... a wooden frame of sticks on which meat is cooked, both terms are valid, one originated in French via Latin, the other originated in Spanish via Arawakan.

@premierproductionsliverpoo362 Год назад

Why don’t you do any reviews on smaller boats for example, 28 foot/36 foot and everything in between? We can’t all afford these big boys.

@Boatscouk Год назад

Yes will try to do more - I have done some smaller boats

Sorry was in rush

@mastercommander4535 2 года назад

Didn’t show the garage …

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

Doh - sorry

@darthkek1953 2 года назад

... basically the long and the short of it is if you go out to sea in this boat you'll have a tender behind.

@BarbaryT52 2 года назад

It's a modern Classic because it needs new teak after 6 years.

@zekelucente9702 2 года назад

I’m sorry but this is sad seeing an attempt at showing a boat that is all buttoned up. Hats off to British boaters that have such a limited season for boating.

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

Welcome to the UK boating 🥳

@marksaunders4149 2 года назад

Princess …Mercedes……Sunseeker….BMW……Fairline…Audi

@Boatscouk 2 года назад

About right. Bit harsh on Sunseeker though - I would say Sunseeker is more like Aston Martin.

@superowl91 2 года назад

turn down your ISO your videos are way to overexposed.

Cheers. Which button is that ? We use iPhone 13 pro max

@chicohunt1206 2 года назад

So?!

@darthkek1953 2 года назад

... if you like the idea of boating but can't afford it you can volunteer as crew. People especially older owners can sometimes really do with a hand. Yachting clubs around the country have adverts and you can offer your services. If you do well and end up working overseas (>6 months/year means no income tax) in the tip-rich charter market you'll end up being able to afford a small boat in fewer seasons than you might think. There's plenty of money in the world if you really want to get some of it.

@gatecrasher1970 Год назад

simple request ... would like to see a catamaran video

@Boatscouk Год назад

Ok - but I don’t see many

@delmote69 Год назад

James Question! What is the largest boat that can be safely operated without having to employ a driver? How much training would a person with only basic knowledge of sailing need to feel confident and safe? Cheers James Delmonte
