Look at this beauty. I'm on the largest yacht in Lighthouse Point Yacht Club. Come up to the
00:00:14.680
bridge and I want to show you around. Welcome back. We're in Lighthouse Point Florida today
00:00:23.880
and we are going to look at this amazing 90-foot Ocean Alexander I sold a couple of years ago.
00:00:30.000
This flybridge reminds me of such great times I've had but I'd like to show you the amenities
00:00:39.120
that it has. It's one deck level. You can put 30 or 40 people up here. Different areas all around.
00:00:45.660
You have this great dining area for 10 people. There's a huge bar here. 12, 13, 15 people. Helm
00:00:54.660
area for three people. This massive hardtop. Look at this. You don't see this on many yachts but also
00:01:01.380
more importantly the hot tub. This is where the action really takes place. Jet skis, hot tub,
00:01:08.260
sunning area. I don't need to leave this up to your imagination because I can tell you I've been here,
00:01:14.700
I've done it. I've got the t-shirt and let's now talk about some other parts which are PG.
00:01:21.180
So this reminds me of a time when I was in Osaka, Japan. I was on a yacht a little bit bigger than
00:01:29.100
this. It had a helipad on the back of it. It was owned by the owner of Nintendo. I was looking around
00:01:34.540
the boat and I saw some scratches and dents on the back and I asked what happened here. Apparently Mr.
00:01:40.540
Nintendo missed the helipad and landed in the f***ing water. Can you believe that s***? Stick to your video
00:01:46.700
games mate. Wow. Look at this interior of the salon. Beautiful. Seating for 12 people. Eight and a half
00:01:59.820
foot headroom. Look at the windows in here. It's really quite opulent. The marquetry, the inlays into
00:02:08.860
these cabinets are beautiful. Pop-up televisions here. High gloss, low gloss. It's really quite
00:02:16.620
stunning. Oh, I don't mind if I do. The floors. I knew they were doing something with them. The
00:02:24.780
captain told me he did them himself. Speaker of the bloody devil. Hey Captain David, how are you doing?
00:02:30.380
I'm good boss, how are you? I'm very good. The floors look amazing. You're not only a great captain,
00:02:35.420
you are a master craftsman. How did you manage to do this? Like you said, I was a carpenter before
00:02:41.660
I started driving boats. A little bit of elbow grease and that was the end result. This boat
00:02:48.300
looks amazing. How do you keep it in such good condition? That's helped by the owner. I'm graced
00:02:55.580
with a good owner, so I'm able to look after the boat as best as I can. It is very user friendly
00:03:01.420
operation and maintenance wise, so it's a very good boat. A good captain always works with a good
00:03:05.980
owner. The boat is secondary to the way a yacht is run. It's just the dynamics of the two. This is a
00:03:11.660
beautiful boat, Captain David. Okay, have a look around. Thank you very much.
00:03:21.420
So below deck we have four cabins, a VIP, a port, a starboard and a laundry facility. This is the best
00:03:28.700
cabin in the yacht, of course, the owner's cabin. Centreline king, huge windows, lots of headroom.
00:03:36.620
Look how opulent this is. But the key feature to some of these cabins which makes it a big difference is
00:03:42.460
you've got a large bathroom with a his and a hers. You can walk through from one side to the other.
00:03:49.260
Look at these bathrooms. This floor is one solid piece of marble. Look at the ornate granite tops.
00:03:56.220
A his, a hers. And boy, this is not a shower for two. This is a shower for two more.
00:04:05.180
So this is the engine room. This is the heart of the beast. These engines are 1925 horsepower each.
00:04:13.820
They are MTUs built in Germany. They're a very special engine because they have three turbos.
00:04:19.740
Typically most engines have two. This has a third turbo to give you the extra power.
00:04:24.860
This yacht will cruise at 18 knots, which is about 21 miles an hour. Maximum speed is 25 knots.
00:04:32.300
It's a very sophisticated engine room and it is absolutely in pristine condition.
00:04:37.660
Enough of this technical s***. Let's go and look upstairs.
00:04:43.820
So being in this yacht club reminds me of a time when I was in the Middle East with Abdulaziz,
00:04:49.420
his real highness. I can't say his last name. We were looking at a yacht just like this. He was with
00:04:55.020
three of his wives. We go to walk on the yacht. He walks on. One of his wives steps on behind him.
00:05:01.820
Another one stuttered for a moment. I go to grab her hand. She said, no. I go, holy s***. He looks around.
00:05:08.220
What are you doing? I said, I was just helping your wife. Don't touch my wife. I go, how did I know?
00:05:13.500
Holy s***. I thought he was going to kill me. The moral of the story, I think, is if you've got three
00:05:22.140
Thanks for checking out the boat today. I'm going to leave you with two things.
00:05:31.900
One, just because you can fly a helicopter on video games doesn't mean you can fly the s*** onto a yacht.
00:05:38.140
And two, everything happens for a reason. This is Ian Laurie. Until next time.
