There are boats that represent an era and others that continue to be special long after that era has passed.
This Princess V52 from 1998 clearly belongs to the latter. Its proportions, the long sports cockpit, the power of its Caterpillar engines, and the character of a great British open yacht convey a way to enjoy the Mediterranean that combines elegance, speed, and true possibilities for life on board.
Built in 1998, this Princess V52 belongs to a particularly recognizable generation of Princess Yachts, where large open sports boats combined a deep hull, traditional shaft drive, and interiors designed for family cruising.
What makes this Princess V52 particularly interesting is not only the appeal of a great classic sports boat but also the investment made to update elements that in a vessel of this age are much more important than any superficial aesthetic improvement.
The removal and servicing of the engines, the available invoices, and an investment exceeding €50,000 provide a particularly valuable documentary basis when comparing units of its generation. In addition, it features three cabins, two bathrooms, a generator, air conditioning, and an exterior layout that maintains the essence of the great open yachts from Princess.

Built in 1998, this Princess V52 belongs to a particularly recognisable generation of Princess Yachts, when large open sports yachts combined deep hulls, traditional shaft-drive transmission and interiors conceived for family cruising. The boat is powered by two Caterpillar engines with shaft drives.
What makes this Princess V52 especially interesting is not only the appeal of a large classic sports yacht, but the investment made to bring important elements up to date which, on a yacht of this age, matter much more than any superficial aesthetic improvement. The removal and refurbishment of the engines, the available invoices and investment exceeding €50,000 provide an especially valuable documentary basis when comparing yachts of her generation. Add three cabins, two bathrooms, generator, climate control and an exterior layout that keeps the essence of Princess's large open yachts intact.
