Amazing job work by this channel to present such yachts in such a detailed and informative way. It takes a lot of effort to tour, film and upload videos especially when their accurate narration instead of silent walk through videos.
Also the shipyard has done an exceptional job of retrofitting and making a new and better than original with modern equipment

[IanCrouse]

Such an incredible ship. I love the bridge and galley. This chef approves. I'm more of an explorer yacht guy, but this is sexy as hell.

[bernardkealey]

Great presentation Eliad, thanks!

I’m sure the yard has also done fantastic work; Türkiye has been under appreciated for the magic that happens there.

I can’t say the same thing about Ocean Technical who decided to butcher Azteca to do a fast flip. There is absolutely no truth in their attributed statement “We wanted to retain the Bannenberg feel but bring it to a modern day where it is more practical and usable – whilst retaining the respect to Jon."

[shawntower]

Wow!! What a beautiful refit, they left the beautiful wood grains with the marble and modern touches, wonderful job!!

[tinkmarshino]

That would have been a refit I would have liked to run.. So much potential there.. Your english is very good by the way.. I always enjoy coming here especially when the boat is undergoing a refit.. Carry on!

[steve-]

I thought it was the finish product after the refit we were going to see, can't wait to see the finish re fit

[wingedmonkeys]

Wow !! he is unrecognizable!!! incredible work! too bad there are no longer the bay windows on the second deck, I think that really gives it some character!. crazy it's hard to believe it's the same . " The 49.9-metre Feadship superyacht Azteca has been relaunched and renamed Koru following an extensive, two-year rebuild with Ocean Technical."

[TinWhistleTV]

What a lovely vessel, another great video sir.

[Ruby]

I'm old enough to remember her in the early 1990s. She was stunning. I think that she used to be called Highlander.

[neilwharton]

There were two sister ships both based in Club de Mar, Palma the biggest problem was the main engine maintenance cost as it became older was extortionate because many parts like cylinder heads etc were obsolete.

[johnschieffelin]

Really interesting video, very thorough tour of an amazing old yacht. The crew quarters are quite comfortable considering the age when this yacht was built. Extremely odd salon layout -- there is no connection or view from the salon to the aft deck. Refit nice but I don't think white carpeting will work well in the new dining area. Even with a refit, I bet this yacht is a continuous maintenance challenge simply due to its advanced age and complexity. The helm area instrumentation was ancient.

[Dogasaurus]

Fascinating if you've watched the first video. I like most of the changes. Some see the forward skylight as a loss. In real life that would have been a salt spray-clouded disaster most of the time, imo, as well as an HVAC nightmare. I'd rather have my crew keeping me safe and comfortable, not washing windows.
That wide staircase at the stern will be great in the Med, etc. Not so sure about rougher waters. Probably why there's no typical double-door access to the salon/saloon ?
Two things I'd definitely change; the solid bulwarks outside that great sky lounge; why have those huge windows if 2/3 of the view is blocked ? And the wood flooring in the galley & crew areas seems like a well-intentioned mistake. Ironic that it makes the crew area more pleasing to the eye (probably quieter, too) but much higher maintenance for them. Otherwise, fantastic crew area, though.

That engine room is amazing. Classic Feadship engineering & design. Never seen Mercedes generators on a yacht before.

[rosmit]

Thanks for the tour wel done .where can we see the before video .

[niki]

I think the renovation is a failure! It should have been kept completely original. Just updated everything, and it would have been fine. This is just sad.

[philipcowman]

Love the content. What a job to take on, you must have really deep pockets to undertake such a task, they haven’t even mentioned how much it will cost to keep those huge twin 3000 horses feed . But as they say if you have to ask you can’t afford it. Would really like to know if they end up recouping their investment.

[Anony]

Do the owner's and guest cabins have windows that open and allow fresh air?

[dartskipper]

Feadship designs of earlier years were so much more attractive. They also looked seaworthy. 😊

[dragos-ioancraciun]

I enjoy your presentations alot. While for me it's interesting to see the yachts unfinished and in the process of refiting, I think presenting it after it was completely done would have been better. Maybe it's just my instincts speaking to me since I am from a country where "this and that will get fixed and get done"means "this is how it will remain".

[keimo]

I'm not sure, are those stairs on the transom wide enough?

[anapaariiboosiehaereraaroa]

How many Passenger they can carry. Can we use like small cruise ship
