Following the successful launch of the Princess 64 and Princess 68 into Princess Yachts fractional yacht ownership with YachtQuarters, the team is excited to introduce a new yacht for the 2024 season: the 2019 Princess F70. With growing demand for shared yacht ownership, we caught up with Joshua Cleaver, Sales Manager of the Princess Motor Yacht Sales YachtQuarters programme to find out more.
According to Joshua, ‘The F70 was an obvious choice to bring to market as there has been high demand for shares in the Princess 68, which currently operates with eight satisfied owners. The F70 focuses on service while on board, with a Captain and a stewardess/cook, owners can expect a service on board similar to what one would experience while on a charter. The F70 suits owners who enjoy entertaining more guests, whether it be family or friends. As a tax-paid vessel, the F70 is open to owners from the EU as well.
By introducing this new option to the fleet, we have aimed to cater for the varying needs of prospective owners. The first shares in both of the current vessels sold quickly upon launch which I think is a great sign that we have selected the right yachts,’ Cleaver added.
‘It’s a turnkey solution to yacht ownership, which means that owners can bring their friends and family to their yacht with the confidence that they can just jump on board and enjoy quality time at sea’, enthuses Cleaver. ‘Every aspect is managed on their behalf, from maintaining and preparing the yacht to provisioning and passage planning by their own dedicated yacht captain and crew’.
Explore the beautiful Balearics
Yachting offers so much more than cruising, it’s about endless opportunities for adventure and new experiences. YachtQuarters owners can enjoy a great range of watersports and fun in and on the water – the ocean is your playground. Your yacht can carry Seabobs, paddle boards, water-skis, wakeboards, snorkelling gear and even an inflatable sofa for example.
The dedicated Captain creates a bespoke passage plan to enable owners and their guests to make the most of their time on board. Some of the most popular destinations in Mallorca are the charismatic Port de Sóller and Andraxt on the west coast boasting some fantastic seafood restaurants and Port de Pollença and Cap de Formentor on the north coast. Exploring Mallorca’s 250 beaches and coves is a must, especially by tender for lunch at a sensational seafront restaurant or a relaxed private picnic in a secluded cala.
And when it comes to land-lovers, the YachtQuarters team can also arrange trips to luxurious spas, arrange a day of horse-riding, cycling or city tours – whatever they desire. Guests often enjoy the majestic Serra de Tramuntana mountain range that run south-west to north-east. Bustling Palma is always a favourite stop for a couple of nights to sample authentic tapas bars, roof top bars, live music venues and Michelin Star restaurants. Some owners have even cruised further afield to neighbouring Menorca and Ibiza for a change of scenery and to enjoy everything from remote serenity to the most famous nightlife in the world.
It’s no wonder then, that there is a new addition to the programme. Available for cruising in the Balearics from 2024 is the incredibly spacious Princess F70 flybridge for fractional yacht ownership
Princess F70 – progressive and sociable
This Princess F70 boasts four cabins, able to accommodate 8 guests comfortably, with a full-beam master stateroom and a separate aft crew cabin. The master stateroom benefits from a private ensuite, while there are two other ensuites for guests and day use. Her interior is modern, light and spacious, with panoramic views stretching across her main deck.
Externally, the Princess F70 has a wealth of outdoor space within her cockpit, bow seating and her expansive flybridge. Flexible seating arrangements and wetbar facilities allow for al fresco socialising at its finest. Her deep-V hull design is typical of Princess Yachts, maximising her efficiency and speed whilst maintaining a comfortable ride.
