Princess, the British motor yacht builder, is common both in the Mediterranean and Northern Europe.
1. Why a Separate Guide for Princess?
British buyers often need an English report on a boat lying in Turkey.
Common models: Princess F, S, V ve Y serileri.
2. What We Look at Closely
On top of the standard survey scope, these are the points we pay particular attention to on a Princess. They are not faults of the make; they are where findings most often appear on boats of this type and use.
Engines and drives
Shaft or IPS arrangement; engines under stepped load, read against maker service records.
Hydraulic bathing platform
Raising and lowering, rams, hoses and leak check.
Teak decks and windows
Teak and seams; bonding line of large windows for leaks.
Electrics and generator
Generator under load, panels, leakage current; thermal imaging of connections.
Seacocks and raw-water circuits
Seacock operation, hose clips and materials; signs of galvanic corrosion.
Hull and cathodic protection
Hull moisture, anodes and cathodic protection readings.
Points We Pay Attention To on This Make
These are not claims of defects. They are the places we spend extra time on boats of this build; every boat is judged on its own use and maintenance history.
F, S, X and Y ranges
- Drive: shaft line or pods, by model.
- Engine and generator hours against service records.
- Exhaust and cooling circuit.
- Glazing and window gaskets.
- Flybridge and hardtop attachments.
- Teak decks and the electrical panel.
