Princess Yachts

Plymouth based Princess Yachts became the first significant British boat builder to achieve the Rina Green Plus (Y) notation for their entire range of V Class and Flybridge yachts up to 24m (85 feet).

Since the launch of their first 31-footer in 1965, Princess Yachts have been rewriting the rules of luxury cruising. From their Flybridge range and V-Class sports yachts, to long-range Motor Yachts and M-Class superyachts.

The variety of Princess is expressed in: M Class, Flybridge and V Class.

M Class

The M Class range is composed of 40M and 32M types.

Princess M40

The flagship Princess 40M is a sublime expanse of interior and exterior living space which can comfortably accommodate up to twelve guests and seven crew in complete privacy.
