A rare opportunity to acquire one of the last Princess 43 models built. Powered by twin 550hp Cummins QSB 6.7 diesel engines on shaft drives with just 414 engine hours, this well-equipped example combines the exceptional seakeeping, performance and build quality for which Princess is renowned.
Finished with walnut satin interior joinery, she features a versatile accommodation layout including a powered double berth conversion to the starboard guest cabin. Her impressive specification includes variable-speed bow and stern thrusters, reverse-cycle air conditioning, an Onan 9.5kW generator, Raymarine navigation equipment at both helm positions, hydrauluc bathing platform, hydraulic passerelle, premium audio system and underwater lights.
The flybridge is ideal for entertaining, complete with wet bar, electric BBQ and bimini. A highly desirable and late-production Princess 43, presented in excellent condition throughout.
Williams MiniJet tender available by separate negotiation.
Broker comments
One of the final Princess 43s produced, this beautifully presented example represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of Princess Yachts' most popular and enduring flybridge models in an exceptionally desirable specification. With just 414 engine hours from her twin 550hp Cummins QSB diesels, she offers impressive performance, effortless handling and the reassurance of proven shaft drive propulsion.
Particularly well equipped, she benefits from variable-speed bow and stern thrusters, reverse-cycle air conditioning, an Onan generator, comprehensive Raymarine navigation equipment at both helm positions, and a hydraulic bathing platform and hydraulic passerelle. The flybridge provides an excellent social space with wet bar, electric BBQ and bimini, while underwater lights and a premium audio system enhance time spent at anchor.
The walnut satin interior remains both stylish and contemporary, with the powered berth conversion in the starboard guest cabin providing valuable flexibility for owners and guests alike.
Increasingly sought-after due to their size, versatility and practical two-cabin layout, late-build Princess 43s are seldom available on the market. This is a particularly fine example that is ready for immediate cruising. A Williams MiniJet tender is available by separate negotiation.
