AWARD-WINNING LINE-UP FOR PRINCESS YACHTS By Andrea Dini Princess Yachts, the UK's leading luxury yacht manufacturer, has revealed the show premiere of the award-winning Princess Y72 at the Miami International Boat Show 2022, which took place from February 16th to February 20th. A further four models, including the sporty Princess S62, the award-winning Princess F45, and the F50 and F62 from Princess's F Class flybridge range, were also on display.
"We were thrilled to be a part of the new Discover Boating Miami International Boat Show that brings together the former Miami International Boat Show and Miami Yacht Show into one, incredible and comprehensive show with multiple venues conveniently located in Downtown Miami and the Miami Beach Convention Center," said Tom Carroll Jr, President of Princess Yachts America. "We were excited to debutshowcase the Princess Y72 in Miami alongside the Princess F45, F50, S62, and F62, and to greet visitors to our expansive display at One Herald Plaza." The Princess Design Studio collaborated with naval architects Olesinski and Italian design house Pininfarina to create the Y72, which encapsulates the
quality and design language seen on larger yachts in the range and takes it to the next generation. The Y72 recently won 'Best Flybridge over 60ft' at the Motorboat and Yachting Awards 2022, which has been stated as "...showing that for all the glamour, polish, and attention to detail of a modern Princess motoryacht, the shipyard still gets the formula right when it comes to seakeeping." The Y72 features the most recent Princess exterior design and interior finishes, as well as beautifully sculpted exterior forms and expansive full-length hull windows. Indoor and outdoor living areas are designed to be sociable yet functional, and the powerful twin MAN V12 1650mhp engines provide top speeds of up to 34 knots.
