$4.2 Million Yacht Tour : Princess F65

[@andybob1001]

Princess interiors always seem so warm and inviting. They don’t seem pretentious or overly exaggerated, just a nice place to be with quality wood working and comfortable looking fabrics. Subtle and beautiful as always.

[@TheKarivirtanen]

Yep, agree. Not so much ”Las Vegas” in it, like for example in Galeon and Azimut, or even in Sunseeker a little bit.

[@r.a.monigold9789]

A Princess yacht is about the beauty of design. And the quality that is built in - not added on. Plus the practicality of the layout. The easy interaction of boat and boater. Safety that imparts security. Lest we forget the FUN that is the soul of a Princess yacht. This F65, is all that - a tried and true Princess Yacht. Thanks to Princess for building this magnificent boat. And to Nick for a FUN way to end the week.

[@wideawaketotruth5301]

Must love the princess, every single one. Clearly Master Craftsman built every nook, cranny and piece! Absolutely stunning!!! Thank you for the presentation Andy.

[@mikecall2057]

They do make the best interiors! We loved the F62 and they have really knocked it out of the park with the new model! It would be nice to see other options (office, lounge) instead of a 4th cabin if you don’t need it.

[@matthewfurneaux3797]

We had a very good look around this actual boat at the Boat Show today. Also, hands down, the Princess team were the friendliest, most helpful bunch you could hope for. We made it clear we were enthusiasts rather than serious purchasers, and they could not have been more welcoming. In start contrast with Sunseeker sadly.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

That's good to hear (about Princess at least).

[@matthewfurneaux3797]

@@AQUAHOLIC maybe the Sunseeker team were a bit tired …. Actually, to be fair, Fairline were great as well, and the staff on the Bentley stand were really fun. I thought it was a great show this year.

[@sirmurf]

@@matthewfurneaux3797 - same vibe from Sunseeker. I just don’t bother, but the guy on the Galeón 500 deserves credit. His enthusiasm for the boat seemed genuine. As for the F65? My thought was that here was a boat which must be close to perfect for an owner/operator. The only suggestion I’d make is tiny - cup holders on that wee “laptop table”. Was also very impressed with the F55.

[@sirmurf]

@@matthewfurneaux3797 - To my surprise, I find that the video rather shrinks the boat. The master in particular felt much bigger than it looks on the video, or so it seems to me. I was interested to know if you felt the same? Or if it was just me not remembering clearly.

[@pookatim]

Just tell them "Nick sent me".

[@MrRnipperBrockleBroadcasting]

Glad to hear your voice has recovered after Cannes Nick. Some clever design has gone into this to get so much accommodation and accessibility on board, and that Kodak 126 Instamatic camera in the owners cabin! - the first real camera I owned back in 1971!

[@EpicSlug]

Yes! Yes! Yes! This is a competitor to the SS Manhattan 68, but on that boat you have to choose between 3 cabin layout or 4 cabins with a compromised saloon with 2nd staircase. Princess has solved this problem by making cabin 4 a generous bunk cabin, perfect for kids. So you get the big nice saloon an 4 cabins. Ideal.

[@wenliu5051]

first minute into the video, I can already see how much thought has gone into the yacht design.

[@debbiejudd4933]

I just watched a video of a yacht that had white walls. So as in watching i can see this one with that. Its a beautiful yacht. Thank you Nick

[@markshutt1476]

Princess never disappoints. Love the new foredeck and flybridge designs. I always love the crew quarters on this size of boat, you get it all, storage, day head, and cabin space. Engine room access is a bit tight, especially given the size of the hatch. Didn't see a Seakeeper, or room for 1. For that kind of money it would absolutely be mandatory for me. Love the boat, great tour, as always, Nick.

[@markshutt1476]

@UClmk8zE5q_fGsScNFjALItw I would think so, to mount to the side would put real stress on the hull. If we think how it works, using centrifugal force to counter roll, it literally pushes the entire boat against the force of the sea movement. Good question, though.

[@rtbinc2273]

There is a note on the Princess website to add Quick Gyro stablizers or Humphree electric fin stablizers. I don't know if they can be added to this model but I assume you can.

[@120Livi]

I'm in love. Just need tonight's Euromillions to happen and this boat is mine!

[@poughkeepsie8516]

Good luck!

[@respectbossmon]

One of the qualities of earlier Princess yachts I always liked was the designers' use of curves and, er, roundish shapes in the interiors. This new F65 merges that with the contemporary obsession with sharp, clean, angles and straight edges really well. It's everywhere on this boat. And to my eye, it makes it a much more relaxing experience; one that induces smiles over frowns.

[@petergibbs]

One new point about this new Princess 65 design I like is in the fourth cabin they have moved the top bunk inwards around a foot and left a gap so BOTH bunks can see the pothole and direct daylight. That turns a pokey bottom bunk into a bright sunlight area. A simple but huge change for whoever is sleeping there.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

That is a very good point!

Am here so early , i really enjoy your videos, i watch them hours and hours , i’m sure you’ll be very successful and you’ll go places . Many people tries to do the same content your doing but you are the original, can’t even listen to them or watch them ,but i can listen to you talking about yachts for hours , you just describe everything very well with a very kind soul ( i watch you because of that ) continue like that brother 🥰❤️by the way i got this notification while i was watching your previous video hahah

[@AQUAHOLIC]

You're very kind, thank you! 🙂

[@kreabea78]

I dunno. It's definitely nice and wood finish is great, but i'm not seeing 4,2 million here. I've seen bigger/better yachts for less. Also i would have changed the fourth small cabin into a small seating area. Thanks again Nick. Always the best.

[@NeoAndersonReloaded]

Me too

[@jsingh4095]

Yeah more like $2.7m

[@davidmwood560]

Another outstanding boat. Excellent quality in every respect; but you know? I really miss the days of good old fashioned sea-going boats. Lots of polished wood and comfortable leather. Of course, those craft were not as efficient as modern boats but I just loved the "look". I guess I'm thankful for the likes of Linnsen and some the British pilot type boats. I know, I'm nostalgic. Great tour of a beautiful boat and, as always, an excellent presentation. Thanks Nick

[@AQUAHOLIC]

You could have polished wood and leather in one of these if you'd like, they'll do it for you! 🙂

[@darthkek1953]

A large number of American and Turkish boatyards have the full-mahogany interiors, and the UK does do them too. Look for MB&Y's review of the Spirit P70. It's ridiculously "nautical" in terms of wood - such a beauty.

[@sirmurf]

@@darthkek1953 - gotta second the opinion on the P70. Doesn’t fulfil my usual fantasy checklist, but I still want it.

[@mysterymayhem7020]

Nick, every time you move the crockery off of a table I get nervous thinking their goes another set of crockery into the trash bin.

A real beautiful boat. Nick I must say you have the best job ever I like it when it is just you talking and not a whole of a bunch of people touring the yacht

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Thank you! 🙂

[@marks9772]

Excellent again BZ, I love how Princess handles the engineering spaces and labeling. I did loose track of how many times you said "again" LOL! Great tour!

[@bezington52]

Nick the new camera works magic on the lighting and quality in this video - who knew a Princess could look even more sublime through the Aquaholic lens than in person!

[@emeraldmorningmist]

Loved the new changes in making walkways or paths to every seat. I also liked the crew cabin door opening to the side instead of hinged at the bottom. This makes it easier for a rib to be on the platform and get in/out of the cabin. Thank you Nick for the great walkthrough!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

My pleasure!

[@markward3242]

@@AQUAHOLIC we all do Nick. Your walkthroughs and personnel comments are very informative, entertaining and sometimes hilarious! Btw, I enjoy the ones WITHOUT any people onboard. I am guessing, you too.

[@darploin5071]

I like the galley app layout and I do like that the dining room table is right next to the galley so the saloon is a true saloon and not also used as a dining area

[@Kim_Jensen]

Every time a new Princess commes out I fall a little bit in love. This boat is really lovely, and perfectly toured by Nick, thanks 😃

[@scorpionz44]

Princess is really the Porsche of the yacht world. Everytime you think you see a great yacht on this channel, Princess comes in and shows why they're king

[@poughkeepsie8516]

I‘d say Princess is rather a BMW. Porsche on the other hand would be a worthy comparison to a Mangusta. My opinion. OK, I am deeply in love with Mangusta 🤣. Saw one in Cap Ferrat couple of weeks ago and couldn’t take my eyes off of it. So gorgeous!

[@TexanUSMC8089]

Or the Rolls of the yacht world.

[@davebuckman8841]

Fantastic boat........would live to see (but cant affird) the V65

[@WOW-li4uj]

She a beautiful boat. Stitching and upholstery is perfect. I would have said it is longer than 65. Filled up without being cramped. Quiet a piece of engineering. Can see why you like them so much! Thanks.

[@paulgolding1009]

Princess have done it again. A wonderful 66 footer. Great family boat with three double births and two kids areas if you use the crew cabin. Superb design team to get that all in.

[@clifbradley]

Gorgeous boat as we expect from Princess. They did a fabulous job getting 4 or 5 cabins, however you decide to use it, in there. Excellent job on that indeed.

[@noskillsbutihavewatchedayo5765]

4K Nick, what a great upgrade to your excellent video tours. It does make a big difference and is worth the extra time it takes to edit/upload. As for the Princess I'm not convinced that a 65ft boat needs either four cabins or a flybridge. They seem very busy (and to my eyes at least) to tall and unstable. I know for sure that none of my "tribe" would want that bunks cabin, it's just to small. Other than that I do like the updates over the earlier models and the new superstructure design is definately a winner. As always Nick, keep doing what you do please, I for one look forwards to your videos popping up in my feed and I've even been known to cancel appointments to watch. Haha.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Just bought a new GoPro 11, going to film all in 4K with this (will still be a few previously filmed 1080 from Cannes coming through though).

Absolutely everything I could want in the most beautiful way. 10 out of 10.

[@meDarkmask]

I really like this kind of introduction and exhibition of yachts. Our Malaysian coastline is very long, it can be said that it is a peninsula, but there is no exhibition of yachts. In these videos, I found yachts that I can afford. Unfortunately, the transportation fee is too expensive because it is too far away.

[@mmsmits2868]

Very well-executed boat with all the fixings and trimmings that are to be expected. Not (m)any surprises, but likely an excellent choice for someone who wants a quality yacht that's familiar in both style and layout.

[@nolanrunciman5064]

Ahhhhh, there's something so soothing about your Princess tours, like being home......... I wish 😒 Great tour Nick.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

[@keith-777]

We were there on the Thursday morning, but we had to wait until after 10:00 😞. We looked around many of the fine vessels on show and were very impressed. The F65 was very nice indeed, some changes from the F62 were very nice, as you showed at the start of your video. I do miss the circular or horseshoe seating of the F62 though. The boats seem so huge when you are aboard, and I'd feel very dubious about close quarters maneuvering one. Great video, as ever, Nick. 👍👍👍.

When you were moving the twin bed I was actually saying out loud "no no look out for the water bottle" and was quite relieved to realize you were aware of it.... Another fantastic video - assuming this was after Cannes, it's good to see (well hear) your voice is back to normal....I never get tired of your tours Nick, you do such a good job and you have changed my view of boat people -ex bf had a boat and was quite the snob- and you definitely are not

Nick you should do a video laying out what boat you would take out of all those you have been aboard, perhaps one cost is no thing and one 'if it were my money' choice for each general size range. I would be particularly interested in the 45-55',55-65',65-75' and 75'+ (but sub 200 GT) ranges.

Absolutely lovely, the one concern is the switch panel on the stairs, it would be easy to accidentally hit the buttons in rough weather, they need to be covered for safety.

Once again a beautiful Princess. I love what they've done with the foredeck, especially the making of aft facing seats on the sun pads. That fourth cabin with bunk beds makes me wonder how the hell Pearl got two good size twin cabins into their 62. The Princess quality still shows apart from the plastic catches in the galley cupboards, seems a bit cheap for them. Still, it's a lovely boat and I wish I could afford one. Thank you for getting there early to bring us another cracking tour.

[@sirmurf]

My opinion of the Pearl 62 is that if you’re in the market for a boat in that size bracket, the Pearl’s price makes it the default choice. It is the boat to beat.
