British luxury motor yacht maker Princess Yachts has slotted a new model into its growing range of F Class flybridge cruisers, revealing the Princess F58.
The new Princess F58, revealed at the Palm Beach International Boat Show, slots in between the F55 and the flagship F65, growing the number of models in the range to five.
The new model is also the first one below 24.3 metres in length to offer a battery pack instead of a genset for silent operation.
The new model includes an open flybridge with a wet bar with a barbecue and upper helm station with an inboard helm and seating for guests while making passage. An aft lounge converts into a large sunbed.
The flybridge extends back to the transom to maximise the amount of living space above decks.
Forward is a foredeck terrace inspired by Princess’s larger models, featuring a space that can turn its hand to either relaxation or entertaining. Forward of a lounge are twin sun pads with adjustable head and backrests, and an optional cooler box restoring storage space.
The aft cockpit, meanwhile, connects with the Princess F58’s saloon, with steps leading down to a swim platform that is equipped with drop-down seating and an optional barbecue that turns the space into a beach club.
The saloon is a light-filled space with large windows that offer panoramic views around the motor yacht. It also houses an aft galley that fills the space between the formal saloon space and the cockpit. It contains a contemporary U-shaped sofa with a dining table that drops down to be chrome a coffee table, a sofa and a two-seat helm station forward and to starboard.
Below decks, the Princess F58 has three staterooms including a VIP bow and a starboard twin that can slide together to form a double.
The midsection master stateroom uses the entire internal beam, and incorporates a superyacht-style ensuite with a walk-in robe, a breakfast area and large hull windows that let in natural light.
Powering the Princess F58 is a pair of 1000hp MAN V8-1000 diesel engines, fed by 3300 litres of fuel. Top speed is 34 knots.
