I hope everyone enjoyed this episode, it’s not always easy to create fun watchable content during ocean passages like this one. We’re onto our second charter of the season now will be releasing some epic Caribbean content soon ! ❤
I really liked this video! Just feeling a part of the crew is awesome 😊 I have a suggestion for a video if I may 😊 The perspective of the guests would be great. I know you don't film guests obviously, but you could let the crew explain what guests do beforehand, more info on the preference sheet, what crazy things have been asked, what are common things etc. What do guests need to do/not do regarding safety. When they are on land, is someone always accompanying them? On the boat, is someone always right by them? or how do they contact you if they want anything, of that makes sense. I can imagine it's quite a skill to tend to guests meeting all their wishes but not lurk or be an a nuisance. To me it's fascinating how people would want so many people around to tend to their every "need". Hope that makes sense in my non native English 😅 Have a good day!
Thanks for all your videos and making us part of your travels. We have a friend who's a yachtie, Chaun Macklovik from Midrand. It's great to see so many South Africans as part of the crew. I am hooked on watching the Loon charters and adventures. You're all doing a great job
What a great series. All of you are really personable. We had the opportunity to cruise on a 150 foot yacht for a week and had such fun. Watching you brings so many memories back. Great photography and wonderful crew shots. Keep it up.
Thanks for the videos guys, you’re killing it as the best super yacht channel both for content and educating people, your content is fantastic, and the crew…. I have no words 😂👏🏻👍🏻
New viewer, ex UK Merchant Navy Radio Officer, but never had a glimpse of the super cool super yacht world. Great content, especially the inner workings (and problems) of engineering and electronics etc.
The video is just great! Looking through your videos, it’s possible to briefly distract from the fact that there is a war in our country. Thank you for what you do! And yes, of course I’m glad to see Nina on board again.
So true about cameras and waves. Many years ago before digital cameras I took my small Contessa 32 south across the Bay of Biscay. We hit some of the worst conditions I had ever encountered and took several rolls of film. Back home I told tales of mountainous seas and expert seamanship until the films came back from being processed. Keep up the good work.
Not the most interesting video except for the camaraderie of the crew. Always smiling and having fun never missing a good joke. Absolutely lovely. Thanks!
Motor yacht loon is absolutely my favorite channel right now. A beautiful glimpse into a world that we've never had a chance to experience yet. Awesome channel.
Blair, some excellent videography (is that a word) of Loon cutting through a few white caps. M/Y Loon really is a beautiful yacht, graceful, reminds me of another of my favourite SuperYachts and also a beauty, M/Y Arience as you will know Jared Watney worked on. Love the technical/mechanical info. Great work guys.
Capt. Paul you are a very lucky man to have a job many of us only dream about, and to have such a great and experienced crew, stay safe and may the winds be behind you for that extra push. 😊
Awesome videos you guys - from the maintenance, to Blair becoming the sacrificial lamb on the bow for pictures, to the attack of the BIRDS, to welcoming crew back on board in Antigua, what awesome times. You guys rock!
Great show! Bravo to all the November folks -- what a great thing, you should all be very proud. If you are taking requests, I'd love to learn more about the galley, meal planning, and cooking on a boat.
The whole crew has such a good vibe, Capt Paul is a great leader. Super knowledgeable and capable but doesn't over exert his authority. Really cool to see that in action.
I would just like to thank you guys so much for making these AWESOME video's !!!! I will never be able to afford to be on a ship like this - but you make it so real. Great work to all my fellow SAFFAS . Great crew.
Blaire absolutely awesome video. Loved that camera showing the bow going into the waves. Drones are great to show how big the waves are, but I guess you'd not want to use them as you may be short 1 or 2 after lol. Movember well done sailors. The girls should do something for Movember ?????? Holy crap those birds SHIT a lot. Hope they aren't a regular occurence. What fun it must have been to clean the boat after and the chase boat must have also been crapped on ? Welcome back Chef Nina Looking forward to Loon's next video keep them coming Blaire
Discovered this because of NautiStyles then Chef Nina got me hooked! :) Then the Captain, then Paige then the whole family/Crew!!!! Tyler got freightened is epic!!!! :D
No way, this crew is SO much better than 'Below Deck' - which is produced to be full of drama and shit. Rather watch a professional fun crew like Loon over that tripe any day!
That’s a crazy view! Definitely a bit rough there!! The bird shitting in his mouth 🤣🤣🤣🤮 poor guy! Doesn’t he know by now ya never look up when the sea chickens are flying above!! 🤣🤣🤣 Here’s to a great season 🥂
Thanks Blair for..how do you do it?!..another very nice enjoyable humor filled balanced vlog👍👊 Good job captain Paul and crew👍💪👊 it seems the removal of the domes give birds some favourable air flow above the boat and something to bombard now😅🎉🪣🚿🧼 bravely forward and sail on today's wind..or at least try 👍👊
Thank you for putting these videos out for us to enjoy. I live vicariously through these videos dreaming I was on a M/Y like Loon. You guys are great. I have a question though out of curiosity have you as a Captain or the rest of the crew ever encountered a Rogue Wave? God bless and stay safe out there. Keep these lovely videos coming out.
The Algorithm gods put your video in front of me and WOW... I see that Super Yachts are starting to embrace RU-vid. It's entertaining, educational, and helps promote your boat's services and crew.... a Win-Win for everyone !!!!
Always fun to watch you guys (and gals) running such a beautiful yacht whether in Europe or on this side of the Atlantic… so jealous, makes me miss my Navy days!!!
I'm a sailing yacht (primarily racing) 1600 ton captain and I have to admit, you guys have it sweet! The videos are brilliant! I know how much time goes into production and post. Great work!
Fabulous episode guys, I really enjoyed watching the trip across to Antigua and you made it more exciting, informative and with some humour. 😂 My friend's are doing the Ark tomorrow to St.Lucia on 78 CNB sailing yacht, I am so excited for the guys.They racing against a few Oysters of the same length but heavier displacement. My other friends from Scotland are doing the Arc 3 as mentioned before that left over a 1wk ago from Las Palmas. I am sitting on my sofa in Scotland freezing btw 🥶 with the central heating on. Just finished watching your RU-vid video. Good luck with the season.
Nina is my favourite. Love her being back onboard. The dude running the cameras and multimedia side of things (tristan?, some sort of SAFFA name...blair?) is killing it. You go man. A question for the Aussie hunk captain, Why hasn't the bulb thing at the front of the boat been anti fouled yet?
Nina rocks! Its great to have her back. Blair is the videographer, and his footage is amazing. The foremast is telescopic and goes up at night to indicate to other vessels what our status is. It hols 2 different white lights. 1 all-round white light for when we are at anchor and 1 steaming light for when we are underway. During the day we put the mast back down
Great video. Reminds me of the time I spent in the USCG on 180' buoy tender ( CLOVER ) out of Sitka AK. Worst 18 months of my life on that tub. Wish I could do it all over again. I must be crazy. Thanks.
Hi guys, my wife and I were on Marella Discovery port side, when you left St John's last week. Unfortunately did not see you leave but have watched you leave on previous video. Great content.
Greetings MV Loon! Please try to show more footage running in open, rougher water. Cue this up to 19:20 i could watch it to infinity. LOVE your entire operation! ..The way it's supposed to be done.
