Motor yacht Princess V65 review

The Princess V65 is a large sport cruiser with the clean, low-profile lines typical of the brand’s V Class. Current production specifications place it at about 67 ft overall with a beam of around 16 ft 7 in, and the model can be configured with twin MAN V12-1400 engines for a high-output package. That combination makes it a serious coastal performance yacht rather than a relaxed, low-speed cruiser.

On the water, the V65 should feel lively and capable, with the twin 1,400 hp setup aimed at strong acceleration and a top-speed range in the mid-to-high 30-knot bracket. The hull and propulsion package suit fast passage-making, but as with most yachts in this class, real-world comfort at speed will depend on sea state and load. Handling should be direct and confident, with the usual sport-yacht trade-off of prioritizing performance and styling over the softer ride of a heavier flybridge design.

Accommodation is a key strength. The verified 4-cabin, 3-bathroom layout for up to 8 guests is generous for a yacht of this length, and the listed amenities such as air conditioning and wifi fit the expectations of a modern charter or owner-use boat. That said, the single-crew arrangement points to a model better suited to private ownership or lightly crewed operation than to high-turnover charter service.

Value is solid but not straightforward: the V65 offers high specification, a respected builder name and strong performance, yet it sits firmly in the premium segment. Buyers are paying for finish, brand reputation, layout flexibility and speed, so the best fit is an owner who wants a fast, stylish motor yacht with real overnighting capability rather than maximum cabin count per euro spent.
