Princess Marine yachts International has announced that a new 85ft flybridge yacht is in the early stages of construction at its Newport Street manufacturing facility in Plymouth, England.

The new 85 Motor Yacht will bring the contemporary style and thoroughly resolved accommodation layouts of the Company’s new ‘Motor Yacht’ range to a wider audience to meet growing demand for larger Princess craft.

“The recent launch of the Princess 95 Motor Yacht in May 2007 has generated a great deal of interest in larger flybridge models from both new and existing Princess customers”, says Sales Director David Pyle. “With striking, elegant lines, a high level of standard marine equipment and trademark Princess performance and handling the 85 Motor Yacht will stretch the boundaries of contemporary living afloat. With the new Motor Yacht range we aim to surpass the expectations of the world’s most sophisticated and discerning owners”.

A number of advance orders have already been taken from preliminary drawings and first-in-line trials are expected to take place early in the New Year.
