My first proper experience of Princess was a 55. A friend of mine drove it from Denmark to Gran Canaria with no problem at all so for sure it would be a great little boat for the Med. Great to see you, Happy New Year and looking forward to many more this year. I think it took quite a long time but since then, performance etc has got much better.

Great to see you again JB!! I have missed you. I was UKposts-less for a few weeks. Now with a new iPad, it’s all good again and I can watch James entertain us on his beautiful boats. Yeah they’re nice socks but you need something flashier mate…like your personality! What size feet have you got?! I totally agree with you, the Princess52 is a special boat. Real quality. And yes…you do look like the kid from ‘Up’!! Wishing you a very Happy New Year from the Giant’s Causeway coast of Northern Ireland. 😄👍☘️🛥️

Hi James. Happy New Year! Thank god somebody's banging on about shaft drive options for modest sized craft........ let's hope some manufacturers listen...... mmmm. Here in Australia we've got Riviera doing shaft drive (some big boats only) and Caribbean. Don't know about Maritimo. There's the lovely Nimbus coupes.... oh yes and Rodman...... but really, for those of us who don't necessarily want the big service bills of stern drives or worse I imagine, IPS there aren't many choices...... Cheers. S

These videos are always entertaining.. Does anyone ever use the 'crew cabin' for crew on boats this size? I looked at a Princess 500 that had a little aft crew cabin but man, you would really have to not like your crew to put them down there. Handy storage though and I'm sure at the end on this 52 there is a little heads too. A nice boat though and well laid out. Profit margins are no doubt better on going bigger but a 50-52 of this type makes a lot of sense..

A brilliant walk through as usual! I have one general questions: why do you include depreciation as well as loan down payments as part of the costs? Wouldn't the straight 10 year mortage repayment cover all necessary depreciation over for the period?
@Boatscouk
@Boatscouk 3 місяці тому
Yes it would. We add depreciation for cash buyers 😀

Very nice boat, for me it does indeed look like a perfect design. Surprised how similar it is to the Princess 49, but the third cabin has side by side bed instead of bunks, bonus (extra beam). The lounge area looks a bit bigger too. Looks like the original owner ticked all the boxes. I'm sure with some Setag treatment it can feel no inferior to a 49 or F50, it's very close as it is.
@Boatscouk
@Boatscouk 3 місяці тому

Yes. IPS and a few more knots it seems, I'm yet to own my own boat but maybe one day. I can tell from the video that the 52 has quality and class, a proper boat. Love the socks, not very PC with the cigars showing though, these days smoking is frowned upon :) @@Boatscouk
