Layout & OperationThe 4+1 cabin, 8+2 berth configuration is suited to private cruising with family or guests, while the combination of an interior helm, upper helm and third cockpit control station provides flexibility when manoeuvring and handling the yacht.
The flybridge, bow and cockpit areas provide several distinct outdoor zones, while the heated cockpit seating area and flybridge access steps extend the practical use of the exterior spaces beyond warm-weather cruising.
Commercial NotesThe yacht's four-cabin configuration, substantial fuel capacity, high-speed performance and multiple exterior living areas provide a logical platform for private Mediterranean cruising and guest-oriented use.
The specification also places particular emphasis on operational equipment, with upgraded Raymarine electronics, multiple helm positions, CCTV, anchor-chain monitoring and additional generator capacity.
Any commercial or charter operation should, however, be assessed separately against the applicable flag, coding, insurance and local regulatory requirements, as these details are not provided in the supplied documentation.
Broker’s ViewThe Princess 72MY stands out as a performance-led flybridge yacht with a particularly comprehensive equipment specification. Twin Caterpillar C32A engines delivering 3,244 HP in total give the model a strong performance profile, while the 4+1 cabin arrangement offers useful flexibility for longer periods aboard. The polished walnut interior, teak exterior areas and Movida Metallic upholstery create a coherent, traditional Princess character. From an operational perspective, the additional cockpit control station, stern thruster and extensive Raymarine installation are meaningful features rather than cosmetic additions. For an experienced owner looking for a fast 22-metre motor yacht with substantial accommodation and a detailed electronics package, this configuration merits close consideration.
