MIA ZOI

>> we are on board MIA ZOI.

>> And we're seeing Thompson Johannes.

>> Not so nice to see you again. Nice to see you.

>> Thank you.

[Music]

>> Our living room.

>> Beautiful living room.

>> So let's start with the area, the stern. So the area, the stern is huge for the meters of the boat.

And the table is hydraulic and it's going up and down. It can be a coffee table or can be for 16 guests easily.

>> Open.

>> I have any pictures now. I got 16.

>> So even some additional. Wonderful. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's getting very big.

Also, there is a Bimini that's going inside and outside for the sun.

You want to get covered by the sun.

And the outside area is very pleasant and seats two people.

>> Way more than that. Yeah, yeah, of course.

Right here.

[Music]

>> Thank you for pointing that out.

>> So here is the dining area inside. We try to avoid to use it. We are in Greece, in a beautiful sun. Why we use the interior for dinner or breakfast or lunch?

>> Bad weather.

>> Yeah.

>> Yes, very nice that we have very seldom bad weather. So there is a day head over there.

[Music]

>> I quite like the classical style of music. Yep.

>> It is sweet. So we did mainly the fish on board, but we try to keep the beginning, a picture of the boat, the beginning, how you call it in English, authenticity, like it used to be. Keep it like that and improve it. Keep it nice. So after you, all right.

>> Thank you.

>> Quite an entrance. Like we feel like a king passing through. So this is the master cabin.

It's a totally new, may I say, we refurbish it and we make it new 2018, that we add another one portholes, who has two portholes each side now. Also, we add the shower with steam shower.

And we make a wardrobe.

>> We've got a long way to go. I gotta say something very special. Huge wardrobe. I very much like this type of wardrobe. We can easily put stuff in, out.

>> Walk-in closet.

>> So the owner of the boat is Australian, first generation, but his parents is Greek.

And for them, he made a documentary about all the Greek Islands. So the last five years, we have been in 200 Greek inhabited islands.

>> So the documentary was made with the boat.

>> With the boat. At each island, we go there and we start from food, culture, artifacts, beaches, tourism.

>> I would mention, and reading through your reviews, you have a review book up there, that is one thing that is very striking, that it's not just like beautiful places, but also the Greek culture, a really Greek experience. I would say like MIA ZOI is not pretending to be, you know, Italian, it's Greek. This is a very classical, and there's certain authenticity to the boat, to the crew. And I understand you as well, like you're an expert in terms of Greek locations.

>> Yes.

>> There's nobody who has seen them all, but I imagine you, you are as close as you can be to knowing all the things.

>> Every Greek island, may I say, do you either wrong?

>> Either wrong, either wrong.

>> So we have stabilizer zero speed here that we added also 2018.

You know, the most amazing is that I cannot say a bad thing about a place or I cannot say that this island is not nice or this island is nice, because from a different perspective, all of them they have something to give. We spoke about that and what was striking, like to be specific, are you can make things happen. We mentioned even renting out some historical sites for an evening dinner. We discussed islands where only few people live and they can make you authentic Greek food that is made on the island. Everything is there. Anything depending on the charter's wishes, you can create experiences that simply I have not heard anywhere else.

>> Yep, that's truth. That's truth.

All right, so hello. Okay, thank you.

So here we have a twin cabins that are convertible to also a double one.

So here is example as twin, but if you were going exactly at the other side, there is a double one. So there are mirror images that done in a different way for the boat show.

>> And the use of mirrors throughout the boat is genius. It makes the boat feel twice, three times the size.

>> Yeah, this is like when you walk in and it's directly against you, like you, you really have a feeling of a spaciousness.

[Music]

>> So this is the bridge that we have replaced almost all the navigation equipment 2018 as well, with touch screens, cameras, and GSM brothers, so they are not affecting the people they are around.

[Music]

>> So here is our sundeck. This table is convertible to a big table because when we are inside the port, hey, you want to have a dinner or lunch or breakfast, you don't want the people passing and looking you the time that you're eating. So here you have more privacy.

At the same time, here there is.

[Music]

Coming down.

>> This adjustability and convertibility is amazing with the tables and even hydraulic and all that. Like it's quite original.

[Music]

All of them together. So we don't have a small theater that, you know, they're going two by two or four by four. And also they are not getting wet easily because big one.

And give us a space to have jet ski, flyboard, sushi box, two pedal boards and many other, like banana couch and ski, wakeboards. I don't know, I don't know what's going on. I don't remember, I don't know if I remember all of them.

>> A boat that's meant to be enjoyed. Yep.

[Music]

>> I'm wondering, uh, yeah, but I think we will have seen everything. There is also an area that you can go and have a salvation.

>> Yes, of course.

[Music]

>> Practicality, like this door being here, tables, the Bimini.

[Music]

If somebody wants to stay in the sun and, you know, enjoy that the private area. I imagine you're coming into the harbor.

>> Yeah.

>> Can get out there. So you could comfortably have the whole group here arriving under this.

>> Exactly. Music in front as well.

>> Oh, so arriving in style then. Yeah.
