Great video with behind the scenes. Was that Andrej in the engine room? Good to see our system TowPro being used for peace of mind when towing. Insurance companies are satisfied when mentioning our System which allows greater flexibility with towing at night and greater distances.

I love seeing the behind the scenes logistics of running these big yachts. I found the Crew Chef channel first and she brought me here.

Nice video once again Steve! What I liked about the old video's made by Blair was how calming they were to watch. (Just to zone out to and dream about the good life 😊) In my opinion the high number of quick useless cuts in the new footage makes for a buisy, not relaxed, watching experience. It is okay to go at a slower pace for these longer video's. I have been watching Loons video's for about a year now and I am looking foreward to her next adventures. You are doing Great!❤

Gotta agree, it's still a bit "choppy". It's a 15 or 20 minute video, not a 45-second commercial, there is no need to keep the hype at full bore.

@timrodaway2718 24 күн бұрын

Yeah, I've got to agree, I used to love this channel but I've rarely watched it since Blair left - occasionally try the odd video but just far too many cuts for me sadly to enjoy watching it - only managed about 30secs before I realised things haven't improved and hitting stop. Please take this as constructive feedback Steve as I'd love to get back to regularly watching this channel!

@jimlarkin7859 25 күн бұрын

So if the tender broke loose in a storm during the voyage to Florida at what point is the HCB “ up for grabs” if ever. Obviously you would turn around and reattach for towing but if you could not what happens in terms of the ownership of the tender in terms of salvage rights? Hope that makes sense.

@motoryachtloon 25 күн бұрын

We turn around and pick it up. If it’s too rough to recover we would stay with it until conditions improve Luckily in 15 years of towing large tenders we have never lost one due to proper upkeep of the towing equipment and not over stressing the towed tenders

@jimlarkin7859 25 күн бұрын

@@motoryachtloon Thanks for the answer I figured of course you would turn around for a $2mm plus tender .. What I was trying to ask is at what point are boats / tenders etc up for grabs and salvage laws apply?? If you came across a tender floating in middle of ocean and you towed it back to Ft Lauderdale could you claim it under some sort of salvage/ abandonment law??

@motoryachtloon 24 күн бұрын

Technically yes but it’s not quite that easy. It would be in and out of courts for a few years . So not really worth the hassle. We always just want to be good seafarers and make sure everyone is safe and if possible return it to its owners.
