This has to be the most spectacular retrofit I have even seen. It seamlessly brings the vessel into the modern era while maintaining the splendid look of the days of old. Ohhhh to have money!

[jecny]

Old school. Comfortable but not pretentious. Elegant in a way rarely found in modern yachts. 👍👍👍

[rebelliousraven]

I love, love, love these kind of yachts! They make you feel like you're back in the 1920s-1940s. Beautiful! Thank you for showing her to us.

[colin.chaffers]

What a beauty, the modern builders could learn a few lesson, quality and fit for purpose. Nice work David and team

One thing special about this beautiful older lady is that she will rock you to sleep like Grandma would do when you were a small child

[rtbinc]

I love not just the yachts but the stories of them you get here.

I used to live right across from Silvers boatyard. There was always something interesting going on and the yard was an excellent place to take photographs the amazing sunsets over the Gareloch.
The yard is still going although they no longer build luxury yachts.
This is a beautiful motor yacht. Thank you for the tour.

Location of the yard is pronounced Rose Neath, like the flower, the yard was at the entrance to the Gare Loch where the british Nuclear Fleet is now based. Another famous yard was next door, McGruer, they mainly built sailing yachts and Silvers built motor vessels. I remember them both being in production when I was a boy. My father had an elderly, even then, TSDY built at Dickies in Tarbert. She was 1930's and moored at Rhu across the water from Silvers. The Clyde had many yards building fabulous boats, all gone now. William Fife, Alfred Mylne, G L Watson were some of the premier designers of the Clyde. Fond memories of my chilhood. I am in my seventies now I still sail, sadly not in Scotland and on a mass produced GRP yacht. 🙃Wind is getting up.

the style of this craft is par excellence

Given the roll of the yacht at anchor, either the fin stabilizers were not turned on, were ineffective, or were not zero speed stabilizers. Ok, that doesn't really matter.

Overall, it was a very nice classic gentleman's yacht. I was happy to see modern electronics and interior updates. Often owners of these classic yachts get hung up on maintaining systems and interiors that are no longer safe or functional.

It was interesting to see Gardner engines. I have most often seen them on Narrowboats on British canals.

Great tour, David. Great music selection too. It was very appropriate for the era of the boat. Thanks!

[MorganMaclellan]

Incredible! Thank you for sharing this story.

[teaeff]

What a beautiful boat! The layout is really good. The upkeep would be a fair bit of work, but worth it.

[calum.macleod]

A super small motor yacht. And as so often, a passionate and ultimately human tour. I love your channel for these insights, and a bit of experience of what it's like to be onboard these vessels.

[JyttesTrailCamera]

Gotta love this classic beauty :) Surprisingly practical as well.

[nicholasdavies]

What a beautiful retro boat ...love it 👍

[chrisonYTtour]

Beautifully maintained and thoughtfully updated… not sure I’d want to tamper with the hull but I’m sure a space could be found to drop a gyro for more stability at anchor…

[jackspeer]

Been a long time since I have seen a MY without a seakeeper . Watching this one bob all around makes a great case for getting some sort of stabilization system.
