Owner Experience Review
Owners who use the 72 Motor YachtbyPRINCESSreport that the single-level saloon and large glazing make it a welcoming, social platform for family cruising and entertaining. The absence of internal bridge access leaves an open main-deck flow, and the full-beam midships owner stateroom anchors a four-guest-cabin layout with a separate crew space. The large flybridge—typically fitted with a wetbar, barbecue, and generous lounge/dining areas—becomes the preferred gathering spot for weekends and overnighting.
Underway, reviewers consistently describe it as fun to drive for its size, with precise steering, responsive acceleration, and comfortable banking in turns. The Bernard Olesinski hull form contributes to a relatively soft, dry ride, while typical performance sits around a 26–28-knot cruise and a top in the mid-30s depending on engine fit. For extended itineraries, published walkthroughs cite long-range coastal capability, with an example range of roughly 800 nm at about 10 knots.
Ownership feedback also highlights practical considerations. The engine room has full headroom but is tight in places, with primary access through the transom/crew passage or a hatch; routine service is workable but not expansive. Isolated owner/tech anecdotes mention a midship cleat bolt failure during a storm and an electronic-throttle unit replaced due to corrosion just outside warranty, and brokers note that high-output engines such as Caterpillar C32s bring the higher parts and service profiles typical of large diesels. Finally, the yacht’s substantial scale and weight can influence marina and berthing choices.
Pros and Cons
- Single-level saloon and large glazing create a social, family-friendly main deck suited to owner-operators.
- Engaging handling with precise steering and a relatively soft, dry ride; typical cruise 26–28 kt with top in the mid-30s depending on engine fit.
- Demonstrated long-range coastal capability, with example range near 800 nm at about 10 kt.
- Machinery space is serviceable but tight in places, with access primarily via transom/crew passage or hatch.
- High-output engines (e.g., Caterpillar C32 or similar) carry higher parts and service costs typical of large diesels.
- Isolated reports of a midship cleat bolt failure and electronic-throttle corrosion suggest proactive hardware/electronics inspections are prudent.
