Princess Yachts
British shipyard Princess initially specialised in high-end fast smaller vessels before expanding into the production superyacht sector. Today, their X Class and Y Class models range from 23-29M/75-95’.
Princess
Established in 1965 in the British coastal town of Plymouth, Princess’s 1.1 million square feet facilities date back to the 17th century and draw on centuries of shipbuilding heritage. Their 3,000-strong workforce complete almost all of the building process in-house (80% of each yacht). Blending new technology with tradition, today Princess has a strong focus on sustainable techniques, including large-scale resin infusion technology, a closed moulded process which almost completely eliminates styrene emissions.
