On Deck
The Princess S80 boasts an attractive exterior, with its sporty design intended for maximum outdoor enjoyment. At the back, it features a drop platform and a tender garage, exclusive to this model, offering space for a Williams SportJet 435 tender. This setup is a highlight of the yacht's focus on fun and practicality.
The expansive cockpit is designed to enhance its sporty nature, with large sunbathing areas and adaptable seating that can be rearranged to suit various activities. The inclusion of air conditioning and sheltered spaces makes it particularly suited for Mediterranean climates, for comfort even on hot days.
Despite its classification as a sport-style yacht, the S80 still has a generous flybridge, which is not limited to a helm position but includes ample seating and a wet bar. This area defies the usual constraints of a sporty yacht, providing a functional outdoor space for dining and socializing. The design of the radar arch and mast adds to the stylish appeal of the flybridge.
Interior
Inside the S80, a lift window creates a seamless connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces. The interior is fitted with modern amenities, including a galley with contemporary silver oak cabinetry and high-end appliances like a Miele hob, oven, and grill. Large windows ensure that guests have expansive views of the sea, enhancing the luxurious ambiance. The interior space, while not as extensive as the Princess X80, remains comfortable and well-appointed, featuring a rising television and surround sound system for entertainment.
The helm is designed particularly for owner-operated scenarios. It features three seats with the Princess logo, multifunction displays that offer comprehensive control over the yacht's systems, and a side door for direct access. The S80 also includes an extended fuel range option, enhancing its cruising capabilities and making it suitable for long journeys.
Guest Accommodation
Owner's Cabin
The owner's cabin is notably impressive, featuring a walk-in wardrobe and a spacious ensuite. The cabin showcases clever use of space for additional storage, reflecting the high quality of craftsmanship in its woodwork and soft-close features. The design ensures that the owner's cabin is both luxurious and functional, providing a serene retreat within the yacht.
Guest Accommodation
The lower deck houses the VIP cabin at the bow, complete with ample storage, programmable lighting, and an ensuite with modern amenities. Other guest cabins each have their own ensuite facilities and flexible sleeping arrangements, such as the ability to convert twin beds into doubles. This flexibility ensures that the yacht can comfortably accommodate various guest configurations.
Crew Accommodation
The crew quarters, while more compact, are perfectly usable and include facilities such as laundry machines and air conditioning. These areas provide practical accommodations for crew members, with two beds and a separate shower, ensuring that even on a sport-style yacht, crew comfort is not neglected.
Performance
The engine room is spacious, housing two MAN engines that produce 2,000 horsepower each, enabling the yacht to reach a top speed of around 36 knots. Despite the inclusion of a tender garage, the design does not compromise engine room space, which also includes advanced systems like a Seakeeper stabilizer and hydraulic systems. The yacht offers impressive cruising capabilities, with a range of 300 miles at 30 knots and over 1,000 miles at 11 knots.
In Summary
