That's a lovely little yacht, nice finishes and nice space, was surprised when you said there were 3 cabins below deck. As always Nick a great tour, thank you.

I like the +100ft tours but I love seeing the smaller stuff. I think it's because I can genuinely imagine what it'd be like owning one of these and enjoying it with friends and family

Lovely design and the layout is quite spacious. Thanks for showing us around.

Super cool boat, amazing layout, 3 cabins that didn't feel cramped plus two full heads is just incredible!! Perhaps not the most eye-catching boat but with outboards and that setup its low maintenance and awesome value, great work as always Nick!!

Great layout and a lot of performance with ease of care from the outboard engines!

After the Cranchi Eco Trawler 43 was discontinued, this is probably the best "two equal sized guest cabins for your fighting teenage kids" layout. :D

3 cabins and 2 heads! In a 41'2" yacht! I like the modularity of the second and third cabin, being able to separate beds for kids, as well as having a double-bed for couples.

Hi Nick, And thank you for this very nice show of this Merry Fisher 1295 from Jeanneau the biggest of there range and this one with a fly bridge and you see them more and more outboards these days. I like to see them more with the inboards but that is what I prefure 3 cabins 2 heads the guest head is bigger then i expected great Thanks again Nick a great show ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

That's a lot of bang for the buck. It still amazes me how much they can put in them . Thank you Nick.

Great to see more affordable yet spacious boats. Three cabins too. .impressive. Thank you Nick for showing this gem of a boat 👍

We looked round this one a few days after you! My son’s favourite of the show!

Amazing designs nowadays!! I lived on a 32 and a 38. No room like today. WOW. Thanks Nick😊

Another great yacht tour Nick, that's a cool boat, triple outboards, very nice. Thanks for the great and consistently entertaining content.

May be my new favorite little boat. Another excellent tour.

Such a nicely laid out boat. And, very efficient tour.

I can't understand how they fit all this in such a small boat. It's almost like that magical tent in Harry Potter 😂

Not my sort of boat, but the amount of usable space inside and below is absolutely amazing for a 40 footer. Separate showers too, amazing. Great tour Nick, as ever. thank you. 👍👍👍.

That's the biggest 40 footer ever 🙂 And it does it all, great 😊 The 3 outboards might cost a little money to service though. Thanks for the tour ☺

Thanks for the share Nick.

Lovely. So glad you show us these. A used Merry Fisher in good shape is in my price range. You could spend years noodling around the US Eastern internal and coastal waterways. Thanks so much. I'd love to see another round of your older affordable boats. Granted you won't find a Broom here is the US. There is a nice Ocean 38 in Kent, which is a long way from New York.

Nice yacht. Good video as always. Thanks!!!

Hello NIck! i didn't realize you had already posted this one. I am thankful. Please accept my apologies for cursing you under my breath. Keep up the good work

Great video and boat at a reasonable price. Well worth waiting up for. Thanks. 🇦🇺 😊

Ah, the Jenneau Merry Wave! They really do make Little Boat a fun, usable thing!

Absolutely great! Nick, as always made an extraordinary presentation of this very beautiful yacht...... Well done nick....

Ticks all the boxes for a brilliant weekender 👍

Very nice piece of kit, at a decent price too. I still couldn’t afford it but I can keep on dreaming thanks to your great videos.

Great widdle boat Nick! Thanks for the tour!

Another great video nick 🚤🛥️⛵️👍⭐️⭐️⭐️👏👏👏👏👏

I enjoyed the Blue Peter moment, 'Answers on a postcard please', although I don't have an answer. Maybe an umbrella locker?

oooooooooo, been witing for this one for so long Nick! Great review as always! cheers

I don’t know why but I just love them! So much space at that cost ! Once again cheers for a great review Nick ✔️

Amazing one. Actually fell in love with it.

Thanks!!!❤

cracking little boat

That was a pretty well laid out and equipped ship.A good fishing /touring boat.Good for weekend with the family, or friends.Throw a generator in the lazrette, and you could keep a couple out for a week. The only limiter would be tank storage and fresh water.I want one.

Great weekender with plenty of beds for friends' heads.

Fantastic tour Nick! Up next is the Celebrity Sillhouette, yes? 🍷

That was lovely, Great space, quality and price

Outstanding tour again Nick around an outstanding little boat. Lot for the money and nice powertrains as well. bet that will suit the UK market quite nicely 😎😎

this actually looks like a decent boat worth the price. unlike most the others out there.

This would be the perfect boat to live on reckon, great video as always,

You can never have to much storage on a boat! 😂 I wouldn't mind traveling a few days on this vessel. The outboard power makes for easy maintenance especially in salt water!

Love this! What more do you need ❤️

Nice one Nick. Thank you

Great tour of an interesting boat. Plenty to like about it for the money, although being built to a price point and mass produced did show in places I thought.

This is a fine weekender and with these outbourd engines a lot fun for watersports.. Thanks for the Tour Nick

Given the cost of most boats you show, this is a lot of bang for the money. 3 cabins 2 heads with separate showers, a lovely flybridge, tons and tons of storage. I love the foredeck really comfortable. The drop sides means you have swim platforms. I would get rid of that tiny TV, get a drop down one from the roof. Can you fit a generator I wonder and have it all electric, plus can you have fin stabilisers fitted.

Nice video 👍👌👌📷

Nice boat! Thanks for sharing! 👍👍

I love the interior . I have 2 girls who are very competitive. The two guest quarters are almost identical. So my girls won't fight over who gets the real nice bedroom. I wish more builders would consider this idea. If I get to be able to buy such a nice boat that will seal the deal

When my parents had boats in the 60s and 70s I don’t recall depreciation or out of style or outdated electronics being a factor. If though you bought this mass production boat what would you lose in 10 years ownership. Accepting this really illustrates the new wealth of European countries.

Really nice biat nick Nice trips on that

I'd love to see a walk through of the craft on the starboard side. It looks practical.

Damn, would have sent you the drone footage of this exact boat if I’d have known you were doing the video! :)

I know this boat the Merry Fisher,1295 and the "BENETEAU Antares 12 basically almost the same boat but I like the "BENETEAU Antares a lot better I just love the layout

Great video tour as usual, Nick! Appreciate it. I am curious as to your opinion on outboards vs the diesel inboard engines? Are outboards gaining traction in the UK?

I have a thing against asymmetric cabins, just my ocd, but this one doesn’t look too bad. Lots for the money too.

Still about 500K short of making a cash offer on this boat, but I am seriously impressed with the 3-cabin/2-head layout on this sub-40 foot platform.

That's a fantastic boat - you meet the nicest people in a Jeanneau!

This is all I need

Nick, between the two of us, we've really trained my brain to release dopamine when I fire up the YT machine and see an Aquaholic video has been posted. :)

Lovely boat though I’d prefer a safer diesel inboard version. A leaking diesel line in a hot climate is preferred to similar petrol seepage . Thanks for sharing Nick.

Very nice little starter boat I would say, great price for what it is.

Half a mill is a bit more than pocket change, but you do seem to get a lot of boat for your money with this one. Great tour as always maestro, keep 'em coming to get us Brits through this cold spell :)

It would be good to see diesel outboards being offered. For those venturing beyond the boating hotspots, diesel is more realistic. Diesel outboards are well used in defence roles .

Next Boat Nick? LOL. Great review as ever.

I have been watching your channel for some time now and saw the cruise ship in the back ground, ever thought of doing a boat tour of one of them maybe a week long video??

Cool motor yacht. When do we get the tour of the big Blue boat? (<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1178">19:38</a>). LOL

Good afternoon Nick

No generator or watermaker? Engine option? Love the videos!

Good value for money when you consider what some of the centre consoles cost now.

That cruise ship in the back is a monstrosity compared to the yachts. 😱

Good video. That's a fair amount of boat for the money.

That's Smuggler's Blues III, right???!!!

Hurray for the electric sky barbecue!

3 cabins for that size and price is really good

Nice

You could do a week away on that

practical

@aquaholic now that you've seen the MF1295 as well as the Antares 12, what do you think? They are sister ships (share a lot design) but I believe the Antares 12 is a bit newer. Curious what you think!

a very nice boat, may be your next one ????

I prefer this to the Antares 12, as both showers are seperate to the toilet and also like the forward sunbathing area more than the Antares 12.🙂

Next Smugglers Blues Nick?

Not me casually watching this thinking I could ever afford one lol.

Amazing value Nick. Bigger and @ £250k cheaper than the new Beneteau Antares I think too... 👍

Such sprawling accommodations for a 40 foot boat. I would be interested in the fuel economy improvement with twin diesel outboards instead of the three gas engines.

I forgot to say nice video nick. So ..nice video nick. By the way do they make this with inboard engins? Like a small Volvo penta?

I don't know if it is possible for you comment on, but some of the details you zoom in on, it feels like the quality is marginally less than on some other (more expensive) yachts. Is this something more noticeable when you actually are on it and feel cabinets and such? I mean, i understand they have to cut corners somewhere at this pricerange, i'm just curious if this is as obvious as the video makes it seem to be, or does it feel the same as any other in this size/range. Once again, great video, thx Nick!

Not bad

This yacht has a well thought lower deck. And everywhere it seems you'd need them there are cup holders. The TV location is what I will in future refer to at the Idiot TV Placement. Because only two, perhaps three, persons could watch it without suffering severe neck strain. Why was it so difficult to locate it at eye level across from the salon/dining seating? If you're going to bother including a TV please try to put it in a useful location. Climbing a ladder instead of walking up steps to get to the fly bridge is a bummer. Fly bridge grill (not griddle), sink, fridge, and functional helm are all great. But you have to make sure the radar is off when using them to prevent a microwave suntan in the face or the back of your head. Honest;y, why do so many yacht shipwrights assume the future owners are hobbit-sized or less?

🤩🤩🤩

❤❤❤❤❤❤

Nick ✔️👍 even though its not for me. Cheers DougT

Range: from one end of the Isle of Wight to the other, but…. Pulling a 1950’s pyramid style of water skiers with those 900 Yamaha horses.

Hi is that including VAT?

It's just my opinion, but an open flybridge on such a small boat seems like a waste. Probably better to just raise the saloon a foot and have a proper master cabin under. I guess it's a fishing boat though.

Where do I land my helicopter? I may have spent too much time on Nick's channel!!

That’s a bit of a TARDIS boat😊

Very cool tour as usual , thanks . with all that accommodation was looking for crew quarters :-) Sleeping 6 in fair comfort, galley a decent size . Be cool for a live aboard , range is a bit tight . X channel ? Be cool for around the UK . What about electrics ? Fresh water ? Stuff we usually see in the engine room tour . Sadly , price , way out of my league , unless I sold my house here in SA For what I could get for it in the UK ! Not happening , could make a 25% deposit :-) You do not push the click like / share / subscribe story . Apparently , more views / likes / comments , helps the maths :-) . While I am typing views were 1360 , likes 234 As 8 mins later 1636 views , only 277 likes ? As I write 1647 / 279 ! Am just a general subscriber , I see a new video , click like at the start , not ever been close to disappointed ! Understand your time aboard is limited , rarely see some ' hatches ' and stuff wonder what they could be ? :-) Wish you both a good evening .
