A 50-foot 1965 Feadship motor yacht, named The Swan, serves as a case study for the maintenance and logistical requirements of owning a vintage steel-hulled vessel.▶ 2:13 Located at a brokerage in the Netherlands, the boat features twin Ford Lehman engines, a hydraulic steering system with a joystick, and a bow thruster.▶ 8:18 The interior includes a galley with induction cooking, a single head with a jacuzzi tub, and a master cabin with natural light.▶ 12:55 Notable maintenance needs include replacing fogged double-glazed windows, addressing minor hull paint chips, and updating outdated navigation instruments for offshore passage-making.▶ 15:56 The vessel lacks a tender and a hoisting mechanism, as it is currently configured for inland canal and lake cruising.▶ 3:18 While the hosts admire the classic aesthetic and build quality, they conclude the 50-foot length offers insufficient storage and living space for their requirements as full-time liveaboards planning long-distance expeditions.▶ 17:15
