Beautiful boat! Nice to finally see a review taking place in "real world conditions". Real sea conditions. For me, this boat is best in class. Checks all the boxes. Well done Princess! Amazing boat. Great review!
That is a really nice yacht, love the layout and a good spec, that is a lot of boat for the money with great performance. Thank you Alex for a very thorough sea trial and tour.
Easily my favourite yacht, nothing to change , think the bimini top is the better option , seen the hard top version and prefer this , nice tour in some good conditions, it handled them well , thanks
Like this boat, she versatile specious, nice decor. Well designed salon, cabins, outerdeck and flybridge . The seperate engine and electrical rooms is a great idea. It means its easier to service either areas. The weather and waves was making the boat work, so its a bit noisy at times but she was steady as she powered her way through the sea. Princess has done a great job and shoul do well with this S 72 class.
This is my dreamboat any category, first it’s so good looking you just can’t stop look at it, without the hard top it’s even sexier. Second I’ve been on a short test drive on one in Sweden and it’s amazing how it’s accelerate, with the twin man v12 1800s if you push down the throttles she lifts up and you can feel the power and tons of torque push you away. Even if I had a billion in the bank this would be my choice!
You're very lucky, I'd love to have a spin in one. My closest encounter was at school where I did my work experience placement with Princess in Plymouth, back in the 1990s, and went out on a full throttle sea trial in a ~65 foot flybridge. It felt like a flying palace, great feeling. Without the hardtop it looks amazing, a total 'sleeper' in that it looks stylish, but there is no real clue from the outside how fast it is. Is the extra few knots worth it? I think so but I'm not really an experienced sailor. Maybe with fin stabilisers it can cruise at 35 knots comfortably in most conditions and pound through rough seas relentlessly. If it could sustain that kind of pace it could make the entire South Coast of Britain navigable on a weekend, to see family or friends in more distant areas or just have a nice trip out to the Scilly Islands - may not be familiar to you but they are very nice. If I won the lottery I'd have one, or the Y72, and maybe fit a yacht controller and try and see if I can helm it singlehanded. I'd probably start off with a cheaper/smaller boat though to get used to the handling and berthing.
I don't know if it is his driving style, but He is constantly freneticly looking around. How do you relax? I would not enjoy that at all. I have seen others driving the same boat and they are much more calm and relaxed.
Very awesome review and test drive. Thats an amazing yacht. The best what can be taken in that size. Stylish, space, tender garage and speed. I would opt for the hardtop as it looks better in my point of view.
Not long for this one priced at £1.8m? The others I’ve seen are £6m. Probably cost £100k a year to run. Those Williams tenders are about £50k! Shit, I can’t even afford a 2nd hand tender😢
What a yacht to dream about. Wonder if Princess will offer it in any other colour than white? Most yachts are white and that‘s a bit boring. Edit: very good tour! Great job 👍🏻

Princess got everything right ❤️🇬🇧👍
Excellent boat. It is very well designed, which is exactly what I would expect from Princess.
Perfect Princess❤️

Such a thorough, thoughtful review. Great stuff, as usual.
Glad you enjoyed it!

Awesome yacht and an awesome tour 😀 Thank you Alex 😊
Brilliant review Alex, thank you.
Brutal on doors and drawers opening and closing. For what a Princess yacht costs wow.

1.8 Million pounds? Sure? In Düsseldorf it was about 4.4 Million... ;-)
How hard to put this to British code so she's ready to our to work in the charter market? Seems the perfect boat for it.
How long do I have to wait until it depreciate s to $100k?

There is options, grey and dark grey as I know
Boring but white for good reason, keeps the interior cool in such brutally hot climes as Spain, Italy, Greece, and Hull.
I prefer a sea trial!
I'm not a fan of Flybridges. There is too much weight up high in rough seas for my tastes!
thing sounds like it will shatter if you hit a big wave...
Sounds like something wasn't closed properly. Maybe the washing machine door.
Have to agree with you, this boat will sell at least 100 units
5.35: lose some cushions? 🤔
🤣
The price is incorrect.
What i did notice that underway you were always leaning, at the helm. perhaps that was just poor editing
Great boat and an awful lot of boat for the price. Quiet too at speed as the video proves.
This guy should not be doing videos. Hard to watch.
