Broker's Comments

Princess boats, built by Marine Projects in Plymouth, have a good reputation for being, solid, stylish and well performing vessels. This Princess 37 has been well maintained over the years and is a great opportunity for a variety of potential uses.
On visiting this boat, I found it to have a light and spacious feel, with walk-through headroom throughout, plenty of windows, a spacious galley, alongwith a large and open saloon area, perfect for life aboard in comfort and entertaining guests. The space and comfort extends to all areas of the accommodation, with four of the berths in two separate cabins, including two, large, single bunks in the forward cabin and a second, large, double, cabin with en-suite facilities, including a shower.

This boat is neatly presented, with a recent, extensive programme of recent refurbishments and upgrades, noted throughout this listing. This boat is an ideal opportunity for a liveaboard lifestyle, extensive cruisng and a holiday getaway afloat. If you would like any further information or to arrange a personal viewing, then please contact our office and we would be pleased to help.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
