This 2011 Princess V78 represents the V Class series at full scale—a 78-foot fiberglass motor yacht built for both speed and seagoing comfort. Twin Caterpillar C32 diesel engines deliver 3,650 horsepower, enabling a cruising speed of 30 knots and a top speed of 38 knots. The hull and systems reflect British yacht-building standards, with a beam of 18.5 feet providing stability and interior volume.
The yacht accommodates four cabins, including a full-beam master suite with private ensuite, served by eight heads throughout. The main saloon is appointed for entertaining, while a fully equipped galley supports extended cruising. A hydraulic swim platform integrated into the stern opens to tender launching and water activities, with an enclosed garage for secure storage of a tender or personal watercraft.
Comfort and control features include a sliding hardtop and retractable sunroof, offering flexible sun and weather protection. The E-plex domotic system was replaced in 2020. At the time of documentation, the engines had completed 1,600 hours of running time.
