$3.5 Million Yacht Tour : Princess F55 

Princess really have their eye on the ball at the moment Nick, it seems that whatever they build it's beautiful and ...... well it just works really. As is the norm Nick, thank you once again.

It looks big for a 55ft boat but its pretty expensive for a 55ft boat...

Beautiful, elegant and practical. Not too large, which I prefer.

Thanks Nick! Princess just keeps upping it's game...well done!

Beautifully designed and appointed Yacht! Thanks for sharing.

0:35 What is the purpose of this elongated hole on the portside of the platform?

Isn't it about time you got your own Princess soon? The amazing free publicity they get from you Nick is worth a lot.

that's a nice boat but two million more than the Sunseeker Manhattan 55?

I know next to nothing about boats of any kind, but I love these reviews! The packaging on these boats amazes me and I always love seeing the surprise "crew areas" that you don't expect. Amazing. Thanks!

I think a yacht size is perfect. There's enough room to part and just enough for over night stay. Thank you Nick.

'I'll edit this bit out later' is always my favourite part

You can not fault Princess they are just beautiful yachts. Nice finishes and equipment levels and good layout. Thanks Nick for another great tour.

3.5$ a little bit too much for a 55foot. Another Brand you would becoming 70-80 Footer or a Pershing 6x / 7x

All the yacht you could ever want as an owner operator. Great tour Nick thank you. Have great weekends one and all.

3 years ago the F55 was 950k now it tuens out to be 3.5M

Is this real price? I mean why did Princess became so expensive? For the same price you can get the 3 years old Princess Y78. The yacht is basically the same as the past ones yet they charge 60+% more? Bruhhh

Nice tour, as ever, Nick. I am, however, puzzled at the price. $3.5M = £2.92M = Euros 3.3M. A Cranchi 67 Fly is circa Euros 2.6M and the Fairline Sqn 68 is circa £2.5M, according to reviews. That makes the smaller Princess 55 very expensive indeed. The Sunseeker Manhattan 55 is about £1.9M ex VAT. That makes it an absolute steal. Has the Princess got every option ticked, though obviously not the hard top, US delivery and export taxes included? Just thought I'd ask as it's lottery night tonight. 🤞🤞🤞.

Ahhh, a brand new Princess F55, an Aquaholic tour of it and a beer, is all I need to be happy. Thank you very much Nick 😀

Price has jumped up.Personally my fav just about the right size etc

It's no Gulf Craft Majesty 175 but it's a Princess what more is to say it's a Princess! But I will comment on this,3yrs ago this model the F55 was £995,000 and now just a short 3yrs difference it's gone to 3.5mill,just one question how? 🤔👌🖖

I mean 3.5m.. My impression is plastic and cheap. Something feels off with Princess. Thanks for an other great video though.

F55 is not US$3.5M. Base model without options & taxes is US$1.65M

Lovely, but my heart goes to Pearl 72.....better looking and 1 mil less

3,5 million dollar for a 55 foot princess....my 2014 princess v48 cost around 550.000 dollar when new...thats only 9 years ago

$3.5 Millions? So where is the second yacht??

Princess is why to expensive there is much cheaper alternatives witch are just as good if not better

Surely it is a $1.5 mil and not $3.5… :)?

A little pricey at 3.5 but still a beautiful boat. Thanks Nick

Way too expensive. There are bigger, better and more beautifull yachts for half the price. Like the galeon 680 fly.

3.5MUSD for a sub 60ft boat…? What the hell has happened the last two years?

Nick, can you explain why a similarly luxury Azimuth yacht of size/class is significantly cheaper? E.g. A new Azimuth 53 is half the price...

There is a lot packed into that beautiful yacht as is expected of any offering from Princess. The accommodations look very comfortable and well planned--even the crew (unruly teenager) cabin. The spacious flybridge would be a great place to spend a day on the water. Thanks Nick for another great tour.

How is this 3.5m for a sub 60ft

I'm struggling with this one. Why in the world would I buy this when I can get a Sunseeker 76 for literally the same price? There is no amount of quality that can make up for 21 feet less at the same price... and sunseeker is still high quality. The Princess S78 is only 800k more... why not buy that? This boat makes sense at 1.5M, not at 3.5M.

Can someone explain to me how is it possible that 4 years ago (3 years before this video) you posted the very same Princess F55 with the price of 995.000£? Has the price tripled in 3 years or so??

That’s 3.3 million euros! Or 3 times the price of a prestige 520, or a galeon 510, with same specs, or twice the price of a fairline, or a galleon 560! Insane premium, definitely disproportionate to the value of the proposition compared to the available alternatives. I will pass on this one.

Dear Nick, it's Okay. You'll never "Edit It Out Later" Lol 😂

Oh my god, do you have to open EVERY frickin drawer? We know how a frickin washing machine looks like, we know what a cutlery drawer is... It's litterally 5 minutes of wasted time every single tour. I like the tours where there are other people on the boat, which means that you don't have time to do all that crap and we actually get a wonderful tour.

Nice boat for sure, but I simply can't help myself comparing that to the Galeon 640 (which seems quite similar, but for half the price!), or my all-time-favourite, the marvellous Cranchi 78, which is more like a true superyacht, but for the same price! As always, lovely tour. Thanks, Nick, always a pleasure!

Sorry for asking. Would you say that Princess F55 is a good "beginner" yacht if someone just wanted to test if yachtlife if for him?

I'm curious. How are yacht companies preparing for the EU's diesel ban, which has been moved up from 2035 to 2030 (only six years away)? I've heard that the ban is going to destroy some island communities that rely on diesel boats and trucks. How are people preparing for when diesel is no longer available? I imagine that not having diesel readily available at stations across the EU will create an unforseen military weakness. 🤔

For that kind of money, I would go with the Riviera 68 Sports Motor Yacht.

Its quite amazing how much money the wanna have for such a yacht nower days. I think the Princess 56 was around half of this price for these beautiful yachts. Unbelievable.

great tour of a compact fun yacht. You really do like what you do Nick!

Great tour Nick, as usual. Beautiful yaght but it seems overpriced for its 55 size. There so many other options with much less money, bigger size and very good quality. For example, the Absolute Navetta 64 with 2.2 m is by far better choice.

I wasn't expecting to like that crew cabin, but it's actually quite nice. Great, as usual.

first!

WOW! That's Southampton? I thought it was the med! Great video as always :)

Lovely boat but seems small and "cheap" for a $3.5m boat

This boat has been unchanged for a number of years now. In fact there is an Aquaholic review from 2021 and it is more or less the same model. Where is the innovation, dropped sides for instance to increase the deck area. In fact the only thing that Princess have changed is the price as it was under a million pounds then!

What a stunning boat that is Nick.. Princess to me equals style elegance and packaging... So clever how every available space is used for a reason. An aspirational boat if there ever was just one. This thing has everything you could ever want or need in a boat. Great tour Nick. Thank you

On a boat this size just from a practical perspective would you be better with an under counter fridge to give more work surface. I doubt you would go away long enough to need a full sized freezer ?

...if you press the correct button you'll need a double bed !!

Would have liked to see a lower-helm side access door.

What a nice boat. I miss a door besides the helm station and a tender garage. I dont understand why they do not add the tender garage to the F55, as the V55 who shares the same hull and layout inside has the tender garage. Thanks for the tour

Why is this boat so expensive? Seems like other 55ft boats could cost half as much.

Good grief ! Just watched Nick's walk-thru of a Cranchi 78 Settantotto.. A real dream boat. Luxury jumps out at you at every turn ! Three engines on IPS.. The price is $3.3 Million compared to the $3.5 Million Princess 55..

When you have reached the pinnacle of touring before the show, then you know you know you are in the big leagues. 🍷 🤣

Lovely boat, the price seems rather excessive for 55ft regardless of the quality however. The Prestige X60 reviewed a month ago was almost half the cost and even the Nordhavn N60 was less!

What would be your dream ~$1M yacht Nick?

Think Princess need to tighten up on that price- definitely seems a bit too pricey for the size.

Obviously absolutely beautiful boat. But 3.5M ??? Honestly, I think you get get a lot more bang for your buck for 3.5m........... Seems overpriced for what you get.

Quality, in every way. Cheers Nick, hope you grabbed a beer after that we'll organised ordeal 😉😊

Can you get the flybridge fully enclosed?

Thanks you Nick. The Yatch is emaculate.

I prefer Absolute 52 fly new 2023, more luxury, more habitable, and with a great price comparing this yacht. However, each person tells the impressions of her. Thank you Nick PS or 56 fly Absolute

As usual Princess build quality shines through

Unruly teenagers, know the term too well.

this boat looks better than my house... 🤣

Great tour as usual Nick, have to agree you can not fault Princess Yachts always stunning!

Nice little crew cabin for a 55' boat

Bro I really love your videos man and I can't express to you just how inspired I am to buy one for myself. Lots of love from South Africa. Just a question but is it necessary to have a crow when travelling?

Isn`t this too expensive for it`s size? Jeez

The people that shorted gns stock are going to buy me this boat 😁

I like the galley and the master's cabin! Why are a Sea Keeper and a remote helm station aft not included? Thank you for sharing your adventurers with us!

Wonderfully Beautiful

Can anyone lend me $3,500,000?

3.5 million quid is a hell of a lot of money for a 55ft boat.

So nice to see Princess Yachts evolving and maturing like this.

I’d have absolutely no problem stowing away in those crew quarters. Lovely boat.

Yes please! 🤪 Always appreciate a princess yacht video 👍❤️🇬🇧

Is that "WOOD" .. IT it looks like melamine with plastic edging to me Nick ? Sorry but I think that's for caravans and certainly not yachts 🤷😁👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

That's a tall ship

Another glorious super yacht video to brighten up my day and add some glamour. Thank you !

But the price .............

Thank you AQUAHOLIC compliment explanation exhaustive Yacht Princess F55 $ 3.5 Million beautiful.

4:28 is that explanation surely correct? I wouldve imagined the 230 V side fridge is the big one in the galley, and the 24V is the small one in the cupboards

Hi Nick great video as always what would you rather have this princess f55 or the Sunseeker Predator 74 xps mine would be the xps

That would be ideal for me. I could have my parents in the owners cabin, my brother & sister-in-law in the VIP, my niece and nephew are young enough to get away with sharing the 3rd cabin and I’d be glad to be in that crew cabin far away from the mayhem! Just need a few million and my powerboat qualifications…

Lovely boat nick as you say it's amazing how they think of everything closest I ever came to a super yacht we went down from Glasgow to Greenock to see Roman abramvich super yacht I was gobsmacked this thing must have been worth about 800 million oh well we can dream 😄😄😄

I think I could afford a couple small fire extinguisher's and some life jackets.. Then all I need is this boat to put around them. About as much chance of that as a snowball in hell !

Maybe I'm just getting old, but I saw a vid of a 1990's princess of about the same size for £130k, all cherry wood interior and old school dials and gauges - blue and white on the outside, that appealed to me more than this one. Luckily I can't afford either so it's not something I have to agonise over!

Love the boat. As time goes by I keep wondering if I would like one of these as opposed to one of the bigger boats. You had a meet the owner - I think the comedian with a Princess - who commented that as boats get bigger it is harder and harder to find marina space for them. I'd like stabilization and I don't know if it is available on boats this size. I also like the details on the Princesses. I like how open and readable the switch panel is, not tucked away somewhere. The prices have gone up. The prices as tripled, but then so has a dozen eggs - and no I"m not exaggerating. The F55 of three years ago was under a million. Granted, like a Porsche you can increase the price with extras, did this boat have two and a half million in extras or is inflation showing up here too.

I like it a lot. Typical Princess quality & innovative. Even has a little crew cabin for unruly blogger Nick for MaryAnn to vanquish him to when being a bad chap. 😢 Seriously thanks for this Nick great review as always.🙏🇨🇦👍

Lovely boat and a great tour as always. However $3.5 million seems a little steep, could you get a similar size Grand Banks or Flemming for that?

Typical Princess, completely conventional, beautifully executed. Princess yachts are rarely at the top of my wish list, but if you’re looking for a used boat quickly, I doubt you can go far wrong with a Princess. I toured this one at the show. The master cabin is actually nicer than the video conveys.

3.5 million?! Was’nt the F55 like 2 million couple of years ago? Has the price gone up that much? Anyway what a lovley boat!!

What has happened to the prices of yachts 😂 had a tour for the exact same model but in 2022 at the Southampton Boat show and it was £1.74m doubled in a year!

I really hope you toured that bali 4.6 in the background. I planned on going to the show just to see it, but i wasnt able to last minute.

Great video Nick. Absolutely all the boat you'll ever need, but $3.5 million for a 55 footer... is that right? 🤔
