more guests and just aft is a sunpad for the
ultimate in relaxation. Guests are further catered

to with a full wet bar, barbecue and fridge on the
port side – there’s really no reason to ever leave
this deck, until it’s time for a swim.

An Opacmare davit crane is located at the aft
of this flybridge deck to assist tender stowage, but
the new owners of this Princess will also enjoy

the option of a hydraulic high-low swimplatform
which can be used to transport a dinghy or PWC.

TAKE IT EASY
The teak-clad flybridge stairs bring you down to
the aft cockpit where another raw teak dining

table awaits, surrounded by a Euro lounge.
A solid hardtop extension also protects this
zone from the harsh Australian sun and two
sidedecks run to the foredeck area, which features

another set of sunloungers for lazing upon.
Berthing this 20m-plus yacht is made simple
via a starboard-side control station which employs

throttles and thrusters for stress-free manoeuvring.
Powered rope capstans also make it easy to
come alongside and these are flanked by heavy-

duty aft mooring cleats and fairleads – this is
big-ship thinking on a sportsyacht and a smart
move by Princess.

MODERN ROYALTY

A highlight of the interior fitout and of Princess

Yachts generally, is the square mouldings used

throughout which present a contemporary, clean

feel to this boat.

The forward galley is set opposite a stylish

dining suite and combines everything a chef

could desire, including full-sized fridge/freezer,

ice maker and dishwasher, with a washer/dryer

combo located in the lower companionway.

The accommodation spaces comprise a four-

cabin, three-bathroom layout, plus a twin crew

cabin aft with its own ensuite.

The master suite enjoys generous natural light

and ventilation from the tall vertical windows set

into the hull of this P72 and makes smart use of

the 5.5m beam.

Further forward, the VIP queen cabin joins a

starboard double and port twin to offer a raft of

sleeping options for guests.

Taken into consideration with the P72’s super-

efficient hull design and quality CAT power, this

motoryacht presents a package of class-leading

style mixed with performance.

Add in a 5000L fuel capacity for long-range

bluewater cruisingand there’s nothing holding

this Princess back.
