Editor's Report by Capt. Steve Larivee

The Princess Yachts F62 is a stunning piece of architecture that creatively blends use of space with functionality.  She replaces not only the 60 but the 64.  As such, she add 10-percent more volume to her interior spaces than the 60 and comes within 3-percent of the 64.  Not a small accomplishment.  

One of the characteristics of Princess Yachts that we’ve come to appreciate is the hull design.  Olesinski LTD has been the designer of choice for Princess since 1980. Recently, the focus has been on keeping them cruising at a more level attitude through most all of the power curve.  Too often we see boats that are only happy at higher speed, and when speed is reduced, the stern squats and efficiency plummets.  End users are also part of the problem with penchants for adding heavy hydraulic platforms and tenders to the stern and filling the engine room with larger engine and heavy stabilizers.  

With Princess, the aft section of the prop tunnels actually hook down a bit.  This creates a natural trim tab of sorts so that at all planing speeds, the bow stays down at nearly all planing speeds.  

Main Deck

The first notable feature of the main deck is that there’s so much glass pouring natural light into the salon.  So much glass, in fact, that we would actually replace the term “windows” with “walls of glass!” 

Externally, there’s seating both in the cockpit and at the bow.  

Lower Deck

Down below, the master is aft and full beam.  A private ensuite is at the entrance.  Forward is the VIP that also includes a private ensuite.  To starboard, twin berths can be electrically slid together to form a queen.  While this stateroom also includes a private ensuite, an optional entrance allows it to serve double duty as a day head.  Two more berths can be fitted to the aft crew quarters and it’s large enough to serve as the occasional fourth cabin.
