About
Remarks
Princess 385 offers a spacious flybridge design combined with solid performance and dependable Volvo Penta engines. Built by Marine Projects in Plymouth, she is a practical and comfortable choice for relaxed coastal cruising and island hopping, with generous accommodation and a sociable layout both inside and out.
Her twin Volvo Penta TAMD61A engines provide reliable cruising, while her wide beam delivers excellent stability and interior volume. The aft cockpit and flybridge arrangement offer flexible outdoor living spaces, ideal for entertaining or enjoying time on the water.
Below decks, she features a comfortable two-cabin layout with additional saloon berths, making her suitable for extended stays aboard. With a good level of onboard equipment, including generator, solar panel, and air conditioning, she is well set up for independent cruising.
Recent care includes antifouling and new anodes (June 2024), and she benefits from relatively low engine hours for her age, reflecting attentive ownership.
