Princess X95 Review (2020 Edition) by Aquaholic

On Deck

Nick commended the boat's versatility and adaptability, noting the transformer platform at the back of the yacht that could lift up to a ton of tender and act as steps into the water or up to a quay. He also appreciated the jet ski storage space, describing it as a "jet ski garage".

The cockpit area of the yacht impresses with a large seating area, a bar feature, and high-quality finishes. There is a full set of engine controls for easy stern-to berthing. 

The aft upper outdoor dining area has seating for ten, lounge seating and a bar area.  Wide side decks lead to the upper foredeck, with seating and a hot tub with a waterfall feature. The lower foredeck has a wonderfully located sheltered seating area.

The saloon dining area is entered through wide sliding doors and the table can be expanded to seat up to ten people, matching the boat's sleeping capacity. The large windows provide a great view and there is a snug area for enjoying a drink watching the views.

The owner's cabin is on the main deck, and is described as a big cabin with large windows, a 65-inch TV, and a surround sound system. The ensuite has twin sinks, a rainfall shower, and a walk-in wardrobe.

The galley on the yacht impresses with sub-zero fridges and freezers, Miele oven, microwave, and induction hob. He noted that a country kitchen could be an alternate option for those who preferred it. The VIP cabins on the lower deck, each with ensuite bathrooms, twin sinks, rainfall showers, and dressing tables, have spaciousness and excellent views.

The upper deck of the yacht, features a sky lounge with a separate saloon area, glass panels in the ceiling, a seating area, TV and the helm station.  There are sliding doors with amazing woodwork that can seperate the helm area from the upper saloon.  The helm itself has a Böning system, triple display station.

The yacht's crew areas, including a mess area, a crew cabin with a double bed, and another with two single beds, each with their own ensuite, are functional and well-designed.

The engine room houses a pair of 1900 horsepower V12 engines and equipped with a fuel polishing system, water maker, control systems for the engines, a fire extinguishing system, generators, and hydraulic systems for the thrusters and stabilizers.

The engines can give a top speed of 23 knots, with a cruising speed of 15 to 19 knots, and a range of over 2,000 miles at a speed of 12 knots. Nick was impressed with its stability and quietness despite its size. The Princess X95 also performed exceptionally well in rough conditions during a test ride, handling the waves smoothly and providing a comfortable experience.

Nick was visibly impressed with the design, engineering, and the unforgettable experience it offered.
