Just a quick note, given how many of you have mentioned the rattling noise. It’s not an issue with build quality. On the contrary, I spent a day at the factory and I can testify first-hand that, from the inside out, these things are beautifully put together. That’s certainly something you can feel when you’re on board and again, if you look at the strength of Marex’s residual prices on the used market, that’s entirely borne out. The rattling on the test boat is solely down to the sunroof and that’s something Espen is going to sort out to ensure it isn’t repeated on subsequent models.

@terrywalker1624 8 месяцев назад

Thanks for the clarification. And yes they are really well built, so the rattle was unexpected. Great that Espen is on it!

@alanpotter3863 8 месяцев назад

You can tell how good the video is by how quickly it goes and this seemed to fly by. Great video and a really neat boat.

@rykehuss3435 8 месяцев назад

Refined other than that rattling flimsy side door

@scubacro5758 8 месяцев назад

I think its large roof hatch, its really annoying

@terrywalker1624 8 месяцев назад

Whatever is rattling, it was v distracting (assumed it was the side door)!

@morri03 8 месяцев назад

Yes ruins it for me

@morri03 8 месяцев назад

@@scubacro5758yes it’s the sunroof you can see it moving in time with the bumps

@AlexSmith-lm9qk 8 месяцев назад

Yeah, it was the sunroof, which is a shame cos in all other regards, it was very quiet and refined. That said, Espen was more annoyed by it than anyone so you can rest assured, it’ll be attended to for subsequent boats.

@Your_mom736 8 месяцев назад

Super quiet. Except for the super loud vibrating door/window.

@piotrowskifamily9188 8 месяцев назад

Great to have a pop-up seat where the door opens to the swim platform. Love the isinglass storage.

Great boat. Great Kitchen. A couples Looper dream boat.

@jaffaholland4039 8 месяцев назад

What a stunner, this is the boat i would buy, love the cleaver 4th cabin, i would have the 3 cabin layout. Its clear that the rattling is the sunroof or a door, this is the first boat, so that will be fixed. There is nothing not to love.

@matthewmartin1970 8 месяцев назад

Really nice if they do the updates mentioned and fix that annoying sunroof rattle. Would love the gourmet cruiser with the 2 cabin layout on shaft drive.

Great boat and another great review from Alex.

@timk3939 8 месяцев назад

Wow what a great design. Great fit and finish, they really tried really hard with this boat. I think they deserve all those beers in the fridges. I think I'd have the 2 cabin down below and get a dishwasher retrofitted.

@AlexSmith-lm9qk 8 месяцев назад

Good choice. If you don’t need the extra cabin, the two-cabin layout is really superb. There is a dishwasher on board already by the way. Sorry if I didn’t point it out. There’s almost too much to look at on this boat!

@timk3939 8 месяцев назад

@@AlexSmith-lm9qk Thanks Alex. Yes looks like they crammed loads in. It really does look like a floating luxury apartment, and quite a fast one.

@colinturner4158 7 месяцев назад

Superb boat

@NautiGrandpa 8 месяцев назад

That boat does more rattling than a glass Sanlorenzo. Probably has the same questionable build quality too.

@AlexSmith-lm9qk 8 месяцев назад

No, not at all. I spent an entire day at the factory, seeing how these things are put together and they are beautifully built. The rattle is solely down to the sunroof - an anomaly that is now being sorted out.

@BilldalSWE 4 месяца назад

Lol. Marex are renowned for their build quality. The rattling is the roof hatch and it's normal with issues like that on a hull nr 1. Espen (Marex's CEO) already mentioned they were taking care of it.

@dtutssel 8 месяцев назад

Regarding the helm and position of the controls by your right hand, what if you're left handed?

@alexsmith3945 8 месяцев назад

Good point. What I really mean to say when I talk about the right hand is that the necessary controls are mounted by the throttles, which means you can steer the boat properly with one hand, while operating all other critical systems with the other. Whether that happens to be left and right or right and left is largely irrelevant because it's equally easy either way. It's only when the controls are split on either side of the wheel that any awkwardness arises.

@user-dx3tp9yb3c 8 месяцев назад

Is it possible to have the volvo penta interceptors instead of the zipwake?

@Fabi_1987 Месяц назад

I like the Galeon much more

@user-dx3tp9yb3c 8 месяцев назад

Also, are fisher panda generators better than kohler?

@NautiGrandpa 8 месяцев назад

Reading the online reviews, there's lots of recurring problems.

@bryka2 8 месяцев назад

@BilldalSWE 4 месяца назад

It's the Roof hatch. Perfectly normal with issues like that on a hull nr 1 and Espen (Marex's CEO) already mentioned they were taking care of it.

@easybigun7825 8 месяцев назад

That rattle is bloody annoying and I'm only listening to it for less than ten minutes. It isn't mentioned at all in the review. I believe this is hull number one so they may sort it out in later builds.

@AlexSmith-lm9qk 8 месяцев назад

Absolutely right. See my comment above.

@ijoseluis 8 месяцев назад

An interesting project of a wrong concept: to spend more than one million in this vessel means to commit two millions in catering for the crowd she is supposed to carry everyday... What is such galley for? Yachting is principally in the view of most users, effective or potential, a choice of peace, calm and simplicity. For social events she is too small, for real boat lovers is too social. My bet is that it will fail. Within 2 years her price will devaluate. Maybe 500 € and still expensive.
