PRINCESS 55 FLYBRIDGE
Icon of British yachting, the Princess 55 Fly captivates with its timeless lines, recognized construction quality, and onboard comfort akin to a true floating apartment. This 1992 model, well maintained and benefiting from recent expertise, presents a rare opportunity for those seeking a reliable, livable, and high-performance vessel.
Upon boarding, one discovers generous volumes and smooth circulation, both inside and outside. The cockpit, extended by a teak bathing platform and a hydraulic passerelle, naturally invites life at anchor. The flybridge, spacious and convivial, offers an excellent helm station and an ideal relaxation area for summer cruising.
The proven hull of the Princess 55, combined with twin Volvo Penta TAMD 122 D engines of 480 horsepower each, ensures stable, reassuring, and comfortable navigation. The recommended cruising speed of about 18 knots allows for long crossings in complete serenity. Bow and stern thrusters, combined with flaps, make maneuvering simple and precise, even with a small crew.
Inside, the ambiance is warm and meticulously maintained. The bright salon offers a beautiful living space with a sofa and table, while the equipped galley, located starboard, provides genuine autonomy onboard. The sleeping area consists of three comfortable cabins, including one with bunk beds, for a total of six berths. Two bathrooms complete the layout, one recently refitted with a shower and WC, providing real comfort in use.
Designed for cruising, this Princess 55 Fly features comprehensive equipment: air conditioning, water heater, washing machine, Westerbeke generator, navigation electronics including radar, GPS, autopilot, and VHF. The boat also has a revised life raft, multiple bilge pumps, and a reliable electrical system.
Maintenance has been meticulously attended to in recent years. An inspection was carried out in 2023, antifouling has been performed for sale, and several major mechanical works have been completed, including the replacement of both turbos, injector overhaul, and exchanger cleaning.
