With her sleek and dynamic profile, agile and exhilarating performance and extensive interior accommodation, the Princess V55 is an exceptional all round sports yacht. Incorporating the very latest Princess hull design and resin infusion technology she combines strength with fuel efficiency, exceptional volume and comfort.
A large sunbed, extensive seating and well equipped wetbar create a highly sociable cockpit which can be opened up to the main deck saloon via double glass sliding doors that lower to create one vast entertaining space. The tender can be stowed in the large garage or on the submersible bathing platform which enables effortless launch and recovery or provides the perfect beach from which to swim and enjoy the anchorage.
The main deck saloon seating is to port in cream leather with the saloon table upgrade to fold & convert to coffee table with sliding mech & electrically powered pedestal, all opposite the fully equipped galley with optional electrically raising pantry. All combined in a light and spacious saloon that offers a tranquil escape from the heat of the day yet a truly exhilarating ‘open boating’ experience is only a touch of a button away via the large sliding roof.
This new V Class continues to deliver throughout her lower deck with optimum use of space and multiple accommodation options. Featuring three generous guests’ cabins, she is class leading for a yacht of her size. Her ensuite master stateroom utilises the full beam of the yacht. Additional guests can enjoy the ensuite forward cabin which benefits from the option of scissor berths in addition to a third bunk cabin.
