If a yacht is defined by having a bedroom and where people can sit at a table and eat then Jon Olsson's 52 ft Bernico hybrid is the fastest having been recorded at 104.2 knots so far ,delivered in July 2022 , it's not an ocean crossing boat but it has a bathing area and swim platform
70 mph is extremely fast for any boat, the fact these big boats can achieve that speed is ridiculously cool, and expensive, these boats at top speed would cost thousands of dollars to go 1 mile.
Number 4 is a Wally 118, not what you've said. It's one of the most spectacular yachts ever made. At top speed, the slogan calls "A mile a minute, a liter a second!"
A yacht isn't an investment. A cruise ship, a container ship or a bulk carrier is an investment. There's a whole different thinking that goes into commissioning a yacht.
Especially when its a Russian owned super Yacht...Costing $300Million one. Thatcwas Hi jacked by US Navy in Pacific ocean Owned by Russian Billionaire. Taken by US Navy. Couldn't say it is a War trophy. As USA. Isn't at war with Russia...although ofcourse USA are supporting Ukraine and Gives Ukraine $ Billions to Ukraine Government. ...against PresidentPutin.... ..So Stealing. Umm ..😢😢😢
Number 9 is an RC! Number 4, you give many of its spec except its length: 42mt and the company: Wallypower. The World Is Not Enough has a cruising speed of 30 knots and a 3500nm range. At 70 knots its range is reduced to 750 nm. The previous numbers are pretty impressive.
Яхта с вертолётными движками на главной заставке - в Черногории стоит . Она в фильме Остров - была - Скарлетт Йохансон и Оби Ван Кеноби - ураганили на ней 👍лайк , подписка, комментарий .
The USS Gerald Ford is over 100,000 tons 1100 ft and it has four shafts driving huge propellers, hard to believe it's probably faster in deep seas (30 to 60 foot waves) then all of above mentioned in video. I'm not saying it's faster in general but it can circumnavigate in high seas at a very fast rate. Something to think about
The Wally 118 is the only boat that still looks modern and fresh. All the others have aged terribly. The Wally 118 might just be the best designed boat ever in history.
600 Hp? Yeah No. You're out of your mind. If you're going to narrate, get your facts right. To move a yacht like that is at least six thousand horsepower.
Dumbest explanation of why billionaires own super yachts. "Because they are nice" is not the reason. They own them for many reasons, but almost all of them are floating property investments that either store the owners dollar value or earn money as they are used for charter or are giant tax write off's.
I don‘t know, but I doubt the ‚earn money‘ claim. These are money sinks with ridiculous operating costs. And a property investment requires a certain resale value (usually higher than original invest) - which I doubt as well. If lucky, they keep their value, but I would doubt that as well. I do however think that the tax writeoff is not only true, but rather substantial.
Just a small point. These are not "Yachts", these are motorboats or motor vessels if you like. The word "yacht" was highjacked from the old "J" class racing yachts of old which were only for the rich which coined the term "Superyacht" to define if from normal hobby sailing craft. Yachts they are not.
Would have liked to see the final moments of the video. Cramming ad space blows. 😔. It's always pay more fore ad free content. RU-vid needs to be less corporate more user oriented. As if we don't have enough ad's in this world. Soon to be sending ad's in your dreams. If they could.
The current holder of the Hale's Trophy, known as the 'Blue Riband', is the liner SS United States, which had a cruising speed in excess of 30 knots and is reputed to have a (still classified) top speed of 60 knots
I WOULD have given this video a thumbs up - if only the pronunciation had been better... "the Blue Rye-band"??? Seriously???????? And then you show r/c toys too??!!!
The guy can not even pronounce RIBAND, it is not the Blue Ryband🤷♀️ Then the yacht for the King of Spain FAUNUS #1, it can not possibly go that speed with only 4200 hp of engines ((2 x 1200 hp & then 3 x 600 hp) for that size of boat: The number 3 boat a 68 meter, Desriero, was slower and had 55,000 hp:::::::when I search the 3 Rolls Royce turbines were 6700 hp each
The Destriero was powered by General Electric turbines of the type used in the F-18 fighter plane, but obviously for shaft horspower. It is "Riband Bleu" in French or "Blue Ribbon" in English, BTW. I find it interesting, noticing the claims of the other, heavier yachts with FAR lesser propulsion systems. Destriero is still the KING.
Why do you have pictures of model toys why not have actual video of these boats going flat out while you’re explaining their specs can’t be that hard to get footage can it
interesting video mixed up with some of the most bizarre pronounciations! Not one of these could be called "pretty", but I suppose if speed is your be all and end all, then "pretty" doesn't matter!
That is not slow for a yatch 70 knots is equivalent to F1 cars speed do you know what it takes just to get a yatch to 50 knots every knot after is unbelievably hard and it's not just sticking bigger motors in its mainly about hull shape and displacement
There is always a misunderstanding about speed on water. Unlike on earth, speed on water is “relative”, that means speed (V) is related to the length of the boat. Therefore these boats, for the scientific meaning of the word, are not that fast.
@@patterdale4332 it is clear you know nothing about "speed on water". My smallest boat (16') was doing 42 knots with 25 HP. That's much FASTER than a Pershing at 50 knots. Actually I'm in the range of 80 knots with a 25'. V/Radq L
Pretty sick whilst everyone is starving. What’s the carbon footprint on one of those? Is the owner paying his staff enough money, is he putting money into pension pots, clearly not. This industry need to be limited or a global tax levied.
The only place anyone shrieks about "carbon footprint," miraculously is anywhere but China, India, Africa and Asia. Strange how only things that can cost Westerners money seem to make it into the shriekfest foisted off on the unbelievably stupid and gullible.
It's there money they can do what they like if you had 10 million would you give most of it away? Bet you would have a house that's 2 big and some very expensive cars
