On Deck
Nick admires the Princess V39's exterior amenities, particularly the hi-lo bathing platform equipped with a rib tender, which can be easily lowered into the water.
The quality of the Princess brand is evident in features like the stainless steel drains and the practical steps leading to the foredeck, with handrails extending aft for safety. Nick highlights the tracks on the foredeck, which allow for the placement of sunbeds.
The cockpit benefits from a unique sliding seating arrangement that transforms into a sunbathing area without compromising space. There is low-level cockpit lighting that enhances the ambiance at night.
The open-backed hardtop, with an electrically retractable fabric section, and an extendable canopy, provides versatility between open-air enjoyment and sheltered space.
Interior
At the helm, the yacht is outfitted with the latest navigation technology, including a Raymarine hybrid touch system, bow thruster, and autopilot. Nick appreciates the Princess detailing, such as the weighted logo on the steering wheel and the low-glare dashboard. The helm seats feature lift bolsters and a drop-down section for improved visibility and comfort.
The lower deck showcases a traditional layout with a spacious feel, accentuated by a large skylight and light oak woodwork. Nick notes the contrast of dark brown accents and the continuous grain of the wood, which reflects the attention to detail.
The galley is well-equipped with significant storage options, a glass splashback, and practical features like a bin and soft-close drawers. The saloon area includes a dining table, a TV, and a bar for entertainment.
Accommodation
Owner's Cabin
The master cabin impresses with its space, storage solutions, and quality finishes. Two hatches provide ample natural light, with one opening for ventilation. The cabin is well-appointed with a dressing table, large wardrobe, and additional storage under the bed.
Guest Accommodation
The guest cabin offers full standing headroom and cleverly utilizes space, providing guests with a comfortable area featuring two adult beds, ample storage, and a large window with an opening section.
Performance
Below deck, the engine room houses twin Volvo Penta D6-330 engines, which will deliver a top speed in the mid to high 30-knot range and a cruising speed around 30 knots. Nick estimates a range of about 300 nautical miles at cruising speed. The engines are supercharged and turbo-diesel, indicative of the V39's performance-oriented design.
In Summary
Nick is highly enthusiastic about the Princess V39, finding it an excellent example of the brand's commitment to quality and innovation, even in their smaller yacht models. He is particularly taken with the smart design, luxurious finishings, and practical features that make the yacht comfortable, functional, and aesthetically pleasing.
