The Princess F70 is a 69'9" GRP flybridge motoryacht that combines British elegance with serious performance. Its design features a sprawling flybridge with twin helm stations, a wetbar, and a large sunpad, while the interior offers four guest cabins including a separate-access owner's suite and three heads. The layout is praised for its functionality and high-end finishes, with over six feet of headroom in the crew cabin and a flat floor throughout.
On the water, the F70 delivers exceptional speed and handling. Powered by twin 1,400hp MAN V12 engines, it reaches up to 36 knots and cruises comfortably at 27 knots. Test drives confirm impeccable sea manners, with minimal roll in following seas and the ability to handle chop easily at 20 knots. The 37.5-tonne displacement hull provides stability and confidence in varied conditions.
Comfort and livability are strong, with spacious lounging and dining areas both in the shade and sun. The hydraulic bathing platform doubles as aft-facing seating and tender storage. While the four-cabin layout accommodates up to eight guests, it falls short for those needing five cabins. Value is solid for a high-performance flybridge, though the £3.2m price point and discontinued status require careful consideration for buyers.
