Broker's Comments

This Princess 420 is an excellent example of a steady, attractive powerboat, with a great turn of speed. Built by Marine Projects in Plymouth, who have a policy of constant research and development, the 420 benefits from innovative design features for the time, including an aerodynamically designed fly-bridge, with all round visibility. The accommodation is spacious and comfortable, both at sea and in harbour, including a huge foredeck, a cockpit with plenty of seating and a spacious saloon and galley. There are two en-suite heads, providing for the sizeable and stylish twin and double cabins. The current owner has invested considerable time and resource in the upkeep and improvement of this boat, including an extensive rebuild of the port engine.

This boat represents an excellent opportunity to purchase a spacious, fast and comfortable powerboat. The boat would be suitable for anybody looking for swift, stylish motor cruising in comfort and would be capable of extended voyages, including as a live-aboard. It also makes a relaxed, mobile platform for socialising, entertaining or just watching the world go by. If you would like to know more or would like a viewing, please contact our office and we would be pleased to help.
