all right guys welcome back to the channel
we're back in porto antico in molo vecio in italy
we're looking at Nirvana again i'm not going to go over the same boat again
but i just wanted to briefly mention something that came up
in the comments in the last video and actually comes up quite frequently
and it's about rack guards interesting comment but one of the
things that they do if you can see this here one of the
things they do is they put these circular discs on here
because what happens is when they don't the boat the rats will come along
and they'll run right up the lines and right onto the boat and the last thing
you want is rats right so we put these discs on and not all
boats do it but we put these discs on and it stops the uh stops the rats from
coming from coming on board so we don't want any any stowaways so
there's a couple of new boats in we're gonna go down and have a look now
i'm gonna show you the difference this is what one of the things i often
say is uh what i can tell that a boat is is a is just just laid up or if it's
getting ready for charter or it's on charter and it's quite obvious when you
see them next to each other and we'll go i'll go and show you that
now so let's go it's actually actually quite early in the morning yeah
if i look tired it's because i am a tough day yesterday and um
and yeah now i'm gonna film uh i'm actually officially on leave from today
i watched my boat leave earlier from another marina
uh which is quite always a strange thing to see
um because it's like you feel like you've missed it even though you know
you're not on it because you because you're leaving you always feel like
you've missed it uh as i don't have any footage out i
mean obviously i can't show you the footage of my boat leaving so i'm gonna
put this boat in instead so you can kind of see what it's like to watch your boat
leave i'm sure i've done plenty of them before
in the past but it just i don't know it just it looks
better than me just waffling on about it but it's it's
really a weird feeling when your boat leaves
it's in interestingly my missus when whenever i send her a
video footage or when we're in a port and a cruise ship leaves because she
worked on cruise ships she often says that she feels like she's
missed a boat so it's quite interesting that no matter
how long it is since you've worked on them
you always get these feelings it's quite strange anyway moving on
on nirvana here you see that they're plumbed into the electrics
and they've got their converter here so they use a
three-phase 400 volt and the marina has to adapt and use this
conversion it's all wrapped in a plastic bag
to prevent it from getting you know damaged electricity and water and all
that so you see the cable running off onto
the boat and they're going inside there
and that means they don't have to run the generators and then they've got
fresh water line here all right i hope you can hear me it's uh
it's a bit windy here today so if it's any noise coming through apologize for
that in advance um this is a motion joy and i featured
this vessel on my channel before this is the
fed ship it's a 70 meter fed ship um it's it's quite an interesting design
if you if you notice um it's very very open
the the outside decks one of the things i i see a lot of
one of the one of the complaints i see a lot from on in the comments is there's
not enough outside deck on most shots it kind of looks that way it's perception
really but this one has massive clearances between
each deck and that uh gives you the when you're
i would imagine when you're in those areas that it will really change the way
it feels make it feel much more open than the
regular the regular vessel if you look at the
vessel that's next to it and you look at the the height between
the the deck above there and the gangway where it
comes in you can see and look at joy the gap between
the deck and the above deck is is much greater
and that really gives that a appearance of a really open
feel check out that that uh spiral staircase
so if you look uh on the on the app section there of joy
you see all the cushions piled up this is this is uh common on the
on the cpr when they when they there's nobody on board and there's no guests on
board because the cushions obviously can get
wet uh so they all get put into a storage area usually inside the main
deck they put towels down drop cloths down and they put them all
inside to keep them from the elements and that's one of the obvious reasons
you can tell everything's covered in canvas
and this is a good way of being able to tell if a boat is uh
if there's any guests on they would never do this if there was guests on
board and i'm going to show you another boat in a second
which is next to it and you'll see the
difference
here's the motion bodacilla and she's dressed up
obviously she's got guests on uh this is a very popular charter boat
it's a 76 meter or 250 feet charter boat it's quite old actually it
was originally called reborn so buddhist here has 290 000 liter fuel
tanks and she has a range of 5000 nautical
miles when i when i show you the boat side by
side it's quite obvious right um that uh one of them is ready for
guests and one of them isn't but that's that looks great the italian
water polo team pro reco have charted uh the boat so
yeah i just i just saw them all coming on board with the
matching t-shirts i mentioned earlier i didn't know what the t-shirt said at the
time but now i just googled this i have no idea but i just
googled it and it says that they're a water polo team and they've
charted uh beaudocia so i have a feeling it might be leaving
soon so i'm hanging around like a stalker
to uh to see if they do leave so i can film it
so if you want to hire beauticia she is uh in the summer season
she's 580 000 euros a week oh that's approximately 659 000
a week so yeah so you gotta have some foot some uh some
cash to hire it uh in the winter season it's slightly less
no it's not the low seas it says low season
525 000 euros or uh 596 thousand dollars
this guy's got the worst job look oh
one of the things you might be able to see on joy if i move around this way
if you look on the bow over here you can see they've got a basketball court
so i think it's just a single hoop and uh yeah
but they've got it up there with the net around it so they don't lose the ball
that's quite cool you don't see that very often one other
thing i've noticed about joy is they're doing something weird with their
ais so the ais as you know is is a something that
broadcasts on vhf to tell other boats or the vessels in the area
where they are right you can you can basically do a
very slow update so basically they can do static updates
i don't really understand even why that system is allowed to be in service
but basically it means that they they every now and then they can change their
location manually and and they can show them to
be in a position that they're not in i don't know the only reason why i can
think that you'd want this is because you because you're super
private and you don't want people to know where your location is
however if you get in trouble and you call out distress
and the search and rescue look at the um the signal for ais to try and figure
out where you are they could go to the wrong location now
i have a good example of this right now you can see george right behind me here
and i just looked on my phone i'll put a
screen grab on here it shows the position of joy to be still
outside before they came in where they were
yesterday when they were recovering their tender i believe i saw them
outside uh and they were recovering the tender
and it still shows them as being there but when they when they were there
yesterday when they were physically there yesterday the ais was not showing
them as being there at all only the tenders ais were broadcasting
it's all great when you're thinking about your privacy but when
you're in trouble and you need search and rescue to come and get you
then it's another story so 991.2 targa 911 target 4
gts this is the gts four wheel drive targa and it's the 991.2
uh 911. there's a lot of numbers there but if you're a porsche guy you'll
understand that
so i have a feeling one of the boats is leaving this guy's coming
he's trying to undo some of the lines so i have a feeling the the boat next to
joy is leaving so if it does if it does work then we'll uh
we'll film it
get a prop foul
for a yacht that's a big problem if you get a line wrapped around your propeller
can cause lots of problems he's just able to just lift it up the
water and untangle it in the next few days i'm gonna film i'm
gonna go to some different places i'm gonna hopefully i'm gonna go down to
monaco film monaco and uh so yeah so keep
watching and i'll be posting those videos in the next week or so
all right guys so take it easy uh leave a comment below
if you know anything about this water polo team because i don't know anything
about it but let me know in the comments and yeah
see you next time alright guys
me
