I always love how you say "I'll edit that out later" and then never do, it always makes me smile

It is amazing how something so small and so mechanically unrefined can cost so much.

A great boat for an owner-operator. Thanks for the tour, Nick! Best wishes!

Versatile ! By creating convertible spaces that are never used at the same time, the boat is able to serve many different tasks and activities and still maintain a user friendly boat- all at just under 40 feet - SWEET. Fast paced singles, newly weds, starter families, teenagers in tow and retired folks with each group able see advantages and features that appear to be made just for them. Beneteau never ceases to impress. Thanks to all for the tour. I want an Aquaholic shirt with "I'll edit that out later"

Nothing like a boat tour from Nick in the morning! Drinking my coffee and enjoying this one. Wonderful boat!

What a bargain! So much space on a 40 footer 😮 Awesome yacht, and awesome tour😀

Loving the outboard option!!! Fast, a lot better on maintenance than a POD or outdrive, can pull em up out of the water. Smart design for 40ft

If I had this ship, how happy my life would be to be able to travel around the islands of Indonesia

They packed a lot of great features in this boat. Thanks for the tour Nick!

This is a superbly compact little vessel. Modest, good use of space. Thanks for showing.

Something different with unique options. They are all out of my price range & living more inland owning a boat is not so practical unless you can trailer it. I do love watching & living vicariously through Nick’s videos while exercising during our winter months though. Thanks Nick.🙏🇨🇦👍

Haha - Moos was a brilliant note and noticing that cleat and ability to joystick control the boat from outside is why your tours are a must watch. Good on you.

Triple moos... love that!

Great to see some practical outboard engines, some great advantages to them especially on medium and smaller boats!

Very nice smaller boat Nick. Sensible weekender/couples boat; great tour as ever - thanks!

Enjoyable tour of a great boat for two, decent boat for four and a weekender for six and even occasionally eight. Sleeping versatility sums it up well, and without sooooo many options a decent price.

Its a nice boat, well thought out. I think I would prefer diesel inboard/s , the thoughts of a couple of large tanks of petrol on board is a bit unnerving. The squeaky door had my two dogs up pretty sharpish. I think they thought there was a new toy in the offing. 😄

Another fine start to a Friday, with a tour from Nick. 👍👍 Lots of room in this one. I like it

Fantastic vessel this one

Very practical small boat with enough room👍

Love from Indonesia 🇮🇩❤

Beautiful

That's a lovely little yacht, nice design and layout. Great tour Nick thank you.

They have a bit more work to do to get it to prime-time. That Port salon back rest, when adjusted to look to the stern...they should put a pop-up foot rest there or who ever is sitting there will be constantly thrown aft. The other forward Port back-rest, when adjusted to look forward, rides up against the table. Put a big person there, either the leather will rip or the table may tilt. Also, not sure that was a high-low TV. Also, since the Starboard deck is wider, most may want to moor up on that side as much as possible. With that nice drop-down, you probably wouldn't use it much inport as it would block people on the dock. Definitely would be nice at anchor. Just a couple thoughts 🙂 Nice tour though, thanks!

Very nicely laid out boat! Thanks for sharing! Keep those cameras rolling Nick and Aquaholic team! 👍👍

A very sensible boat - useful and well priced! Thanks Nick!!

Crockery AND on a Beneteau. Double win!

I wish more makers would use the space above the outboards. Seems like a great spot for a sunpad up behind the seat backs.

Beneteau is extremely good at making the best use of space, Nice boat! The fly-bridge would be my favorite spot...

Nice boat with some cool features. Though you wouldn't want to by cooking a stir fry and watching telly at the same time!

Beneteau should sponsor Nick and give him one of these for the new Smugler's Blues!!

Lovely boat, many thanks Nick for the peek. 👍

Bigger than it looks. Nice

This might be our next boat - the 3 cabin 2 head layout is nearly perfect. Love outboards too. Everything else similar to this Antares 12 is Volvo DPS powered which has a very expensive maintenance and repair tax. A couple of Verado’s can be serviced anywhere!

Very impressive tour and vessel. The price point is amazing considering how much kit there is. Thank you! 🍷

What a beautiful and thoughtful boat this is they maximise every bit of space, just fantastic love it 👍👍👍

Is that a new T-shirt I hear triple moo's?????? Great boat

That TV as a backsplash is genius :D I am guessing it is a high-low TV? Other than that, I think it is great.

Nice yauct. Thanks for the tour. 👍

When I heard Nick say "triple mousse", I was thinking what the heck was that? Then Nick showed us a double-moo boat right away.

Great tour as always, thank you. However I don't think its a good idea to put the TV right were you are doing the cooking and washing up, it could spoil it. The bolster chair at the front, will rub on the table whilst in motion. Also you would think they would have sprayed the owners cabin door with a bit of WD40 before the show. Other than that its a nice boat.

L'utilizzo di motori fuoribordo gia' di per se' mi piace, mi alletta e mi stuzzica. Bellissima barca, a me piace. Mio modestissimo parere , mio gusto ( soggettivo )😊

Great video, Nick. Nice boat.😊

Nice boat nick and another good video 🚤⛵️🛥️🚤👏👏👍👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Realy wonderful weekend boat, or even for a week holiday... There is a lot space on the boat and looks very comfy.. Thanks for the Tour Nick...

Interesting! I always wonder why boats don't have equal size guest cabins. You can invite two couples without one having a better cabin than the other. Or you have two adolescent kids, which will sooner than later have a partner. But reality seems different :D Another great video. The way you present a 34 meter Majesty and a 12 meter Beneteau with the same respect, is outstanding.

Very nice one. Competition for Marex, Aquador, Nordstar and even Galeon

A floating, entry-level RV. Pretty humble, but hopefully, functional.

Nick, it sounded like you stepped on a cat when you entered the Master. 😅

Спасибо вам Ник! Доброго здоровья.

One of my favorites so far. Those big boys are nice to see, but this little guy (not so little) is much more manageable/reasonable. Now I just need to navigate that 762,000 price tag...

What a fantastic boat! 😎👍✨

It’s a wonderful thing to see all the latest innovations from the various yacht manufacturers from a hand held smart phone. I’m curious about the air draft on this extremely versatile vessel. Also, I wondering if a pair of OXE 300 hp diesel outboards are an option. They could add significant range. Once again Nick, thank you for another thorough and enthusiastic tour that you are so famous for😊

Beneteau, so innovative! Lot of boat for 12m! Perhaps the drop down balcony could also incorporate a high-low platform (might be some unattractive mechanics on the side of the boat when up, but....). Thanks once again Nick for a great review; you are the master!!

Lovely boat. Thanks for sharing. :)

i just need to write to santa about this and galeon and mangusta and... yada yadas!! 👍👍

Always a compromise, but never on The Wave! While I do like a lot of the features, I do feel this would be nicer with a bit more room, perhaps enough to go galley-down with a lower deck lounge area to match.

Very nice !

Hi Nick...... lovely boat and loved the tour....... but...... does this mean if you've only got the two hundreds you've got a couple of ZOOs ? Haha...... Think i'd stick with the triple cows! Cheers S

Hay Nick, what? Don't worry about 🤣🤣

A 12m beneteau the price of a 50 feet ten years ago!! And 2x400 outboards are twice cheaper than 2 volvos 400 diesel...

Rather nice, am not a fan of squeaky doors :-)

Very nice, complete boat with lots of flexibility for seating options. 3/4 of a million Euros seems high, but that may include everything shown here, and not the base price (Nick, correct me if I'm wrong). If so, try pricing a Porsche. Sure, they may start at €60k, but then you'll need to buy all the 'options', like a steering wheel, tires, engine, headlights etc.

That squeak in the owners cabin really caught me off guard.

First thought,... That kinda price for a Beneteau with outboards 🤔 Next seeing 6 berths, excellent master bathroom and dayhead. A well equiped drivers workplace. Sufficient "kitchen" plus TV. A nice sesting inside, aft and fly plus a rather big and practical entertainment area on the bow. In short, a lot of boat for a friendly price.

Another great tour Nick. Is the tv a hi-lo or easily removable? If not, I’m thinking it presents quite a block on window viewing if the weather is a bit nippy and people are inside.

Wow. A table that unfolds. Never seen anything like that before. Especially on this channel

They really packed a lot into this one. Love it! Thanks, Nick!

Cracking little boat. Great spec. In the boat world Nick how quickly and much do the boats depreciate in cost. Obviously in cars it is quite significant. Great tour btw.

Moos love it 😅

Nice

Dear Nick, isn’t this boat kind of related to JEANNEAU merry Fisher 1295 I see a lot of similarities in them the same but different

I wonder if they will move the side door from the platform to the helm door 😄

Great boat, but for me, if you have a door at the helm,why wouldn't you put a door in the gunnel right outside the helm door as well, to give easy pontoon access when singled handed. Great tour as always Nick.

Well, I quite like it. Packed a lot into a relatively small package. Maybe not a refined as some may think it should be, but than maybe they should be looking at 50+ feet and double the price. A generator and sea keeper would make this a very comfortable boat to take on a nice vacation, if you put in a watermaker.

Nice Boat! But sorry, imho the TV so close to the hob does make no sense.

Lovely new version of the Antares, like it 👍 But crazy expensive for a 12m Beneteau. It's not a Riva..!😳

Ouch ! I hope that TV retracts ? I can see that quickly suffering right next to a skillet of pan fried skate wings ! ... 🇬🇧

I don't really get this outboard trend

@ 12:16 - Just tell me this sound isn't what it sounds like.... :D

Three seating with table areas on a smaller yacht.

What a beautiful boat and absolutely family friendly but one thing you missed is how the top on the fly bridge gets put away. But like always love your videos

This boat is affordable for people who own medium sized companies

That's a very nice boat some very good inavasional touches and I think the cabins and heads/showers are a very good size for the boat

This is a really interesting yacht. I'd like to know who thought it was a good idea to mount the radar dome in the same plane as the heads of those sitting in the fly bridge (or their torsos, if standing)? Is that safe?

Nick! Great review as always, but for something completely different: I really like your watch! Which model is that?

Interesting whit outboard engines. Is Jeanneau/Beneteau the same, otherwise it would be nice whit a comparison between the two boats. Seems pretty the same.

Cracking use of space Nick, very impressive tbh. A bit of a downer though is that price reflecting just how badly Our Fiat Currency has Lost its Purchasing Power. 😡 But likely to be addressed pretty soon imho. 👍 Best Wishes.Bob. 🤔⛵️🌟🌟🌟❤️

For boaters on a budget the Benneteau fits the bill. With three cabins - one of which contains a cockerel and if you listen @ 7:03 you will hear it - + a flybridge, this vessel deserves to be shortlisted if you're a bit short of shekels.

For a smaller boat it's got everything you need

You clearly have an absolute command of the English language, but I have noticed that you often refer to the head as the "heads" or "head's", with an "s" sound at the end. I wonder if this means that the proper name for it is actually "heads"? Thank you very much for your wonderful boat reviews! ✅

The door noise... 😂😂😂😂 the price is a little absurd, but to each their own.

Should move the bowthurster near to joystick.

Like to c one of these tours when the boat yacht is actually at sea. Then u cud c how properly they work.

Are these manufacturers not feeling any pricing pressure from tightening credit markets? I suppose if your customer is buying a $750k boat, they don’t need to finance it. It just seems like the prices keep inflating and unlike the housing market, I’d think boat buyers would have more options.

These new boat prices are simply unobtainable!!.the world has finally gone to SHIT!!!😢

Nick, how many times have you taken an accidental swim whilst walking down a narrow side walkway?

Thanks Nick! Personally, I think Beneteau should stick to sailboats...

To be honest I can't see any reason why one should pick this over the Swift Trawler 41, which is superior in literally every aspect. They are not even too far in price!

Got to see this boat at FLIBS and it's everything Nick says and more. Big upgrade in quality from the smaller Antares line. You get a lot for your money with this boat, and being designed as an outboard first the interior space is much larger than inboard boats at 42 feet. I was really hoping to meet @aquaholic at FLIBS but I didn't see him! Thanks for doing this video!
