I think a yacht size is perfect. There's enough room to part and just enough for over night stay. Thank you Nick.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Agree completely!

[@rykehuss3435]

You can easily live aboard, its a 55 footer man, with full size fridge, washer/dryer, watermaker all that stuff. People do week long passages on 30 foot sailboats. Its better than some hotel suites "just enough for overnight stay" lol

[@big_don_bepis]

'I'll edit this bit out later' is always my favourite part

[@seanogden927]

You can not fault Princess they are just beautiful yachts. Nice finishes and equipment levels and good layout. Thanks Nick for another great tour.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

My pleasure!

[@67tomcat]

I know next to nothing about boats of any kind, but I love these reviews! The packaging on these boats amazes me and I always love seeing the surprise "crew areas" that you don't expect. Amazing. Thanks!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Thanks for watching!

[@Kim_Jensen]

Ahhh, a brand new Princess F55, an Aquaholic tour of it and a beer, is all I need to be happy. Thank you very much Nick 😀

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Cheers! 🍻

[@paulgolding1009]

As usual Princess build quality shines through

[@mznb1u]

There is a lot packed into that beautiful yacht as is expected of any offering from Princess. The accommodations look very comfortable and well planned--even the crew (unruly teenager) cabin. The spacious flybridge would be a great place to spend a day on the water. Thanks Nick for another great tour.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

You're very welcome! 🙂

All boats need to have a brig to toss in those brats when they become unruly!

So nice to see Princess Yachts evolving and maturing like this.

[@cbrusharmy]

I wasn't expecting to like that crew cabin, but it's actually quite nice. Great, as usual.

[@row0111]

$3.5million? I'd expect it lol

[@wareidav]

What a stunning boat that is Nick.. Princess to me equals style elegance and packaging... So clever how every available space is used for a reason. An aspirational boat if there ever was just one. This thing has everything you could ever want or need in a boat. Great tour Nick. Thank you

[@noskillsbutihavewatchedayo5765]

Princess really have their eye on the ball at the moment Nick, it seems that whatever they build it's beautiful and ...... well it just works really. As is the norm Nick, thank you once again.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

I don't disagree at all.

[@Ichris_jones]

3.5 million would be out of most people reach, but as motivation to make such amount would be a yacht like this. The build quality, space and character of this boat is just spectacular. Well done again nick on such an informative vlog, never fails to cover all aspects. Great boat, great vlog. !!

[@r.a.monigold9789]

When shopping for 50 - 60 foot flybridge yachts, the choices are many. A popular size, for sure, perhaps the most popular size category in yachting today. Princess has earned a well deserved reputation as a quality yacht builder. This F55 is a fine example of the class. Where others cut back to basic features, relying on the boat's size as the focal point, Princess owns the reality of quality in materials, features and amenities. Can't go wrong investing in a Princess F55. Thanks for the tour, Nick.

[@LKESBO]

I agree on many points u said, but don't forget the price its super high compared to other mamy manufacturer

[@kennethrogers1129]

Price does seem high for that size boat, doesn’t even have a jacuzzi!

[@LKESBO]

@@kennethrogers1129 55 fly 3.5 unreal price 😅

[@dangermouse8466]

That's a lovely little yacht. I love it.

[@pumpkineater23]

Beautiful, elegant and practical. Not too large, which I prefer.

[@jkennett9104]

Great tour as usual Nick, have to agree you can not fault Princess Yachts always stunning!

[@bobuncle8704]

I’d have absolutely no problem stowing away in those crew quarters. Lovely boat.

[@kevinortiz1587]

Impresive and good design Princess F55

[@rasferrastfarian739]

Lovely boat Nick. So much in a smaller package - so Princess. Thanks Nick.

[@lynncor998]

A little pricey at 3.5 but still a beautiful boat. Thanks Nick

[@thecarpetman7687]

Way over priced at 3.5…..only about 1.5 at best

[@Avm371998]

It looks big for a 55ft boat but its pretty expensive for a 55ft boat...

[@arpysystems]

Nice boat for sure, but I simply can't help myself comparing that to the Galeon 640 (which seems quite similar, but for half the price!), or my all-time-favourite, the marvellous Cranchi 78, which is more like a true superyacht, but for the same price! As always, lovely tour. Thanks, Nick, always a pleasure!

[@jaimiemadden590]

Perfectly Princess , well thought out with lots of spaces to enjoy. Great performance as well. Thank you Nick

[@AQUAHOLIC]

My pleasure!

[@douglasthompson296]

Wow Nick as it says on the boat it's a 'World Premier' introduction and Nick gets a first review after the Press Day ✔️ 😎 Cheers

[@kevinenglish1976]

A beautiful boat for a family. Great tour as always.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it 🙂

[@603livefreeordie]

Wonderfully Beautiful

[@FLGurl]

When you have reached the pinnacle of touring before the show, then you know you know you are in the big leagues. 🍷 🤣

[@peterdodge6563]

Thanks Nik. Your posts always super- but especially like coverage on Princess. Such a gem.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoy them! 🙂

[@RobertCardwell]

Thank you for a great walkthrough. That they've done shaft drives on this is nifty.

[@BhaaskarDesai]

Princess never ceases to amaze. As always another fantastic yacht and a great tour. Thanks Nick :)

[@AQUAHOLIC]

My pleasure!

[@drygyn]

I always get a laugh when you say "I'll edit this bit out later", because you never do, and I'm glad because it gives these such charm. Feels like I'm getting a professional showing by a good friend.

[@elvindelacruz3808]

Thanks you Nick. The Yatch is emaculate.

You're very welcome! 🙂

[@itsallgonemad]

Still one of my most favourite boats, just glorious. In the voice of David Dickinson - ‘quality-quality-quality’!!! Disappointed Princess have still not invited me for a sea trial though 🤣

[@georgesteckert6334]

After watching your tours for the past couple of years, I see a special love you seem to have for Princess yachts. I bet one would be your next boat if the price was within range!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

I wouldn't mind one... 😊

Nice tour Nick. Princess builds a great yacht.

Well another fantastic Princess boat absolutely stunning and thanks again for doing what you do as having a hard week in work i look forward to seeing what you have uploaded and i can have a little drink and dream Love it don’t ever stop 👍

My pleasure 🙂

[@nicbennett6554]

Well that was a bonus, missed the tour when it came out 5 days ago. Not often I get an Aquaholic bonus 🎉🎉 Great tour as always, and very Princess, so what’s not to love.

[@briansmith1029]

Lovely boat nick as you say it's amazing how they think of everything closest I ever came to a super yacht we went down from Glasgow to Greenock to see Roman abramvich super yacht I was gobsmacked this thing must have been worth about 800 million oh well we can dream 😄😄😄

[@roxy5759]

I always appreciate when they make the crew cabin nice, even if it is tiny. Plus, you can never have too many beds, in my opinion 😉

[@AQUAHOLIC]

True that. 🙂

[@JulieWallis1963]

Once upon a time Princess we’re my _favourite_ yachts, but since finding this channel I’ve found so many other gorgeous yachts. Thanks Nick 😊 Ps I’ve updated my profile picture, I hope you still recognise me lol! I used to have red/ginger hair.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Looking good! 🙂

[@tiredtrailer]

Princess do make a real quality yacht.

[@gsmith207]

gorgeous! But wouldn’t think any less from princess! at 56 years old, this helps me dream about retirement on one of these someday! perfect for the wife and I and the standard poodles to live on comfortably! thanks for giving us something to dream about Nick! you legend!

[@I-am-awayTOM]

Nick once assessed this type of crew cabin as 'boyfriend cabin.' Well named and too funny!

[@I-am-awayTOM]

Or people who snore cabin.

[@who8678]

3 years ago the F55 was 950k now it tuens out to be 3.5M

[@falcon7897]

Great tour Nick, as usual. Beautiful yaght but it seems overpriced for its 55 size. There so many other options with much less money, bigger size and very good quality. For example, the Absolute Navetta 64 with 2.2 m is by far better choice.

[@keithadams812]

Thank you for showing the crew cabins most reviewers miss it completely.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

No problem!

[@brianmiller6443]

Great work done by Princess as usual. The prices have really skyrocketed. They do build a great quality boat though. I guess you have to weigh if its worth the extra money. Great tour Nick.

[@dieteraxa1741]

The perfect family boat ! Nice one again Nick

[@opa-dick]

Princess has made a new daimond.. 55 carat big... Now I need to win the Lottery again... Sig.. Thanks for the Tour Nick.. 👍

[@jimmyquinn9639]

Good video nick and another beautiful boat

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it 🙂

[@9VARZ]

I always call these sort of crew cabins as "stowaway hideouts" hahahaha!! Thanks for the tour, Nick! Princess really delivered with this one.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Sarrienne]

A lovely, sweet little boat, with lots of comfort and even luxury, yet no hint of anything being 'just for show' like many of the larger yachts. I like Princess's thinking! But prithee, Squire Nick, tell us of your own thinking, wherefore thou hast *forsaken* the fans of thine Burnham Wave™!!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

I just like to shake things up a little! 😄

[@Sarrienne]

@@AQUAHOLIC We are shaken to our cores...

[@sirmurf]

Typical Princess, completely conventional, beautifully executed. Princess yachts are rarely at the top of my wish list, but if you’re looking for a used boat quickly, I doubt you can go far wrong with a Princess. I toured this one at the show. The master cabin is actually nicer than the video conveys.

[@bobt3374]

Amazing boat as i said before i think you get an excellent deal if you purchase one of these. Good review Nick.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Thanks Bob!

[@randyreid2916]

Would have liked to see a lower-helm side access door.

[@colinturner4158]

Excellent and informative video as usual Nick thank you very nice boat

All the yacht you could ever want as an owner operator. Great tour Nick thank you. Have great weekends one and all.

[@normbond8888]

I like it a lot. Typical Princess quality & innovative. Even has a little crew cabin for unruly blogger Nick for MaryAnn to vanquish him to when being a bad chap. 😢 Seriously thanks for this Nick great review as always.🙏🇨🇦👍

Love watching your videos! Chilled yet informative presentation style.

I really hope you toured that bali 4.6 in the background. I planned on going to the show just to see it, but i wasnt able to last minute.

I love when he says crockery lol 😂 😂😂😂😂😂. Always my favorite part!!

[@blastercast7680]

You have lots of nice watches, Nick. Wouldn't mind a video of your collection. :)

[@yumpinyiminy963]

For that kind of money, I would go with the Riviera 68 Sports Motor Yacht.

[@davidedc1]

Is this real price? I mean why did Princess became so expensive? For the same price you can get the 3 years old Princess Y78. The yacht is basically the same as the past ones yet they charge 60+% more? Bruhhh

It's no Gulf Craft Majesty 175 but it's a Princess what more is to say it's a Princess! But I will comment on this,3yrs ago this model the F55 was £995,000 and now just a short 3yrs difference it's gone to 3.5mill,just one question how? 🤔👌🖖

[@MarksWassersportFAQ]

Hello Nick, i like it, when you show us more what is behind all the Doors

[@keithhughes2104]

Fabulous boat, astronomical price. Just one gripe, when will Princess, Fairline, Sunseeker etc learn that most owner operators want a side door at the lower helm!

[@4ch4n]

this boat looks better than my house... 🤣

[@rtbinc2273]

Love the boat. As time goes by I keep wondering if I would like one of these as opposed to one of the bigger boats. You had a meet the owner - I think the comedian with a Princess - who commented that as boats get bigger it is harder and harder to find marina space for them. I'd like stabilization and I don't know if it is available on boats this size. I also like the details on the Princesses. I like how open and readable the switch panel is, not tucked away somewhere. The prices have gone up. The prices as tripled, but then so has a dozen eggs - and no I"m not exaggerating. The F55 of three years ago was under a million. Granted, like a Porsche you can increase the price with extras, did this boat have two and a half million in extras or is inflation showing up here too.

[@watchhunter]

I'd love to see a boat tour on the Big C

[@darrylalford8879]

Very nice ! Thank you !

I prefer Absolute 52 fly new 2023, more luxury, more habitable, and with a great price comparing this yacht. However, each person tells the impressions of her. Thank you Nick PS or 56 fly Absolute

[@gregmcmullen6698]

Nick, I know you love Princess Yachts, but I'm seeing 2 million for a brick and mortar home in the Florida Keys, and a 36' open console for about half a mil. I'm still ahead a million and the home (should) appreciate in value, unlike a 3 1/2 million 55'. I guess this Princess is priced that high because they can sell them at that level. As always, nice review. Peace.

[@escapethematrix5069]

Fabulous Nick. Get that Y72 next door!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Y72 is already on the channel 🙂

[@escapethematrix5069]

@@AQUAHOLIC Sorry Nick, I realised that I already had the Y72 vid on my desktop as my money no object dream boat. However, I also just spotted your vid on the new F65 and WOW, what a boat, I loved the F55 but wanted a little more space, to me the F65 looks as good as the Y72 but just a smidge smaller and a lot cheaper. Not that I can afford either of them like 90% of your viewers. In reality, a boat like Smugglers Blues 2 would be a fantastic boat to have. We can keep dreaming with your help my friend.

[@escapethematrix5069]

PS, Imagine what an Y65 would be like?

[@escapethematrix5069]

PPS, It's rather confusing when you prices are in pounds, dollars and euro's some times. £££ only please.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

@@escapethematrix5069 The price, including the currency, is supplied by the manufacturer, broker or dealer setting up the tour. So it's entirely up to them what they choose.

[@K1lostream]

Maybe I'm just getting old, but I saw a vid of a 1990's princess of about the same size for £130k, all cherry wood interior and old school dials and gauges - blue and white on the outside, that appealed to me more than this one. Luckily I can't afford either so it's not something I have to agonise over!

3,5 million dollar for a 55 foot princess....my 2014 princess v48 cost around 550.000 dollar when new...thats only 9 years ago

The V models are still much cheaper. This is an F

[@99dndd]

That would be ideal for me. I could have my parents in the owners cabin, my brother & sister-in-law in the VIP, my niece and nephew are young enough to get away with sharing the 3rd cabin and I’d be glad to be in that crew cabin far away from the mayhem! Just need a few million and my powerboat qualifications…
