Princess Yachts, the UK's leading luxury yacht manufacturer, has revealed that the new Princess S72 will make her Show Debut at this year's Southampton International Boat Show from the 15th - 24th September 2023. The dynamic S72 forms part of a seven-yacht line up at this year's event for Princess Yachts.
Recently launched at the 2023 Dusseldorf Boat Show, the new Princess S72 provides a sporty alternative to the highly successful Y72 and joins the popular S Class family. As with all the S Class models, the S72 features sleek exterior lines that are extenuated by beautifully sculptured full-length hull windows to provide a powerful profile. Equipped with twin MAN V12 engines at 1650 or 1800 horsepower and a highly efficient resin-infused deep-V hull, she delivers a dynamic performance and agile handling at speeds of up to 38 knots.
Where the Y72 is focussed on maximising interior volume, the S72 is characterised by sociable outdoor living with large exterior entertaining spaces such as the vast cockpit which incorporates a generous dining area opposite the fully equipped galley and a large aft sunpad that sits above the tender garage, large enough to accommodate a 3.95m tender. Each element of the S72 interior is designed with meticulous attention to detail with clean lines, neutral tones, natural materials and luxurious but simple finishes in perfect harmony.
At this year's Southampton International Boat Show, Princess will also showcase a line-up of a further six yachts including Flybridge models F65, F50 and F45, Princess V40 and V50 and a second S Class model, the S62. This spectacular display will allow visitors to experience the iconic design and unrivalled craftsmanship across the Princess range.
Simon Clare, Marketing Director, said "We are delighted to have such a strong line-up once again at the Southampton Boat Show, especially the new S72 which will be making her show debut. We know this exciting addition to our S Class range will be a significant draw at the show for both our UK and International clients alike."
Visitors to Southampton International Boat Show will find Princess Yachts on display in Mayflower Park, Stand number E055.
