Princess R35 Review (2019 Edition) by Aquaholic

On Deck

Nick points out several design details that make the R35 stand out. Among them is the innovative anchor handling system at the front of the boat. He admires how it creates a flush surface when not in use. Also highlighted are the variety of available colors, mentioning a metallic gray version that features a Princess logo, which he believes contributes to the boat's overall appeal.

The boat's sleek, elegant design accentuated by the sweeping lines and dual levels are impressive. Discussed is the practicality of the vents designed to channel airflow and prevent spray from impacting the boat's performance. He notes the sunbeds' accessibility and the convenience of stepping through them to reach the cockpit.

The cockpit is an ideal blend of speed and comfort, with ample seating for guests and a central helm that accommodates three more people. Highlighted are the boat's hydrofoils, which automatically stabilize the boat during cornering and contribute to its spectacular maneuverability.

Nick praises the clean, well-designed foredeck, noting the convenient access and safety railings. He appreciates the integrated fairlead and pop-up cleats, and he lauds the engineering that has resulted in such a cleverly designed boat.

The interior of the R35 is perfect for day trips or weekend getaways. The compact yet comfortable layout is commended, highlighting the convertible dinette area, the innovative lighting solutions, and the small but practical galley area. He also appreciates the heads compartment equipped with a shower. There are unique Princess details in the cockpit, including the added luxury of air conditioning and a fridge. Also pointed out are the various logos displayed throughout the boat.

The R35's power is provided by a pair of V8 430 horsepower Volvo Penta petrol engines capable of propelling the yacht to speeds of up to 50 knots.
