For Sale: Princess Yachts F55

• By Jake Lamb
• March 20, 2024

The Princess Yachts’ F55 is a flybridge cruiser focused on entertaining, space efficiency and sporty performance. It’s the second-largest model in the builder’s F Class behind the flagship F65. Impulse Power is a 2020 F55 listed with HMY Yacht Sales and has an asking price of $1.9 million.

The F55 is designed by the Princess Design Studio in collaboration with British naval architect Bernard Olesinski, Yachting previously reported .

Outdoor spaces aboard this 55-footer include a foredeck terrace with booth seating and sun pads. Side decks with high rails create safe passage from the foredeck to the cockpit where guests can enjoy alfresco dining at the U-shaped transom bench seat and folding high-gloss teak table.

Stairs to port lead to the flybridge, which has the fiberglass hardtop and with a three-sided enclosure on the forward half. The two-seat helm station sits to port, adjacent to an L-shaped sofa for guests enjoying the view en route to the next waypoint. The after section of the flybridge has a U-shaped sofa and a high-gloss wood folding table, making it a great spot to enjoy lunch with a view.

Impulse Power ’s aft-galley layout is a design choice that reinforces the yacht’s focus on entertaining. The 55-footer’s galley can easily serve guests in the salon and the cockpit. In the cockpit, a bar to port shares its countertop with the galley when the window is open. The F55’s galley is equipped with an array of appliances, including:

• 4-zone ceramic hob
• Combination microwave/convection oven with grill
• Stainless-steel sink with mixer tap
• Full height fridge/freezer

Forward from the galley and up two steps is the amidships lounge. Seating around the salon is positioned to help maximize views out of the nearly 360 degrees of glass. There is a U-shaped sofa to port with a high-gloss dining table. A two-person sofa is to starboard, which hides a 49-inch flat-screen TV, in case you need to catch the big game while you’re enjoying a weekend cruise with the family.

At the two-seat helm station, there’s a full electronics suite, fuel gauges, exhaust temperature and engine warning system, and rudder- position indicator. The navigation system includes VHF/RT, speed and distance log, an echo sounder with alarm, autopilot and a high-speed magnetic compass. There are also joystick controls, bow thruster, windscreen wipers, bilge-pump controls and trim tab indicators.

Belowdecks, all staterooms benefit from amplified hullside windows that enhance the sense of space. The full-beam (16′) amidships master stateroom has a double berth, en suite head, private dinette and a flat-screen TV. The forepeak VIP also has a double berth and en suite head. The final guest stateroom has single berths that convert to a double.

Powered with twin 900 hp Volvo Penta D13-900 diesels, Impulse Power has a reported 33-knot top hop and a cruise speed of 22 to 23 knots.

Some other notable features on board Impulse Power include:

• Radio/MP3 with waterproof speakers
• Flybridge wet bar including sink, stowage and optional electric barbecue
• Washer and dryer
• Life raft stowage
• Teak decking throughout exterior

Where is Impulse Power located? The yacht is currently lying in Key Largo, Florida.

Princess F55 Review (2022 Edition)

The 17m, three-cabin Princess F55 is a classy cruiser that ticks a lot of boxes for an owner operator

Princess has ranges that cover five distinct genres from traditional V Class sportscruisers to the pseudo explorer yachts of the X Class range, but this F55 is a staple of the modern Princess line-up and a timely reminder of what this British yard is all about. With three good cabins, well-arranged deck spaces and twin shaft drive propulsion it's a tempting proposition for an owner-operator who values space on board but doesn't necessarily want to rely on crew when they go cruising. 

Princess's partnership with Olesinksi Design and Pininfarina seems to produce consistently appealing designs and the F55 is no different. Its lines are well-proportioned and perfectly judged, as is the spacious three-cabin interior. The F55 might be the most competent all-rounder in a highly competitive market, keep reading to see what it's like on board and out on the water. 

Princess F55 Key Facts

• LOA 58.005ft
• Model Year 2022

Our Scores Explained

Performance & Handling

The F55 is available with two versions of the Volvo Penta D13 shaft drive block, with either 800hp or 900hp. For the small increase in price, the 900s are worth the outlay. Being the same block as the 800s they take up no more space in the engine room than their less powerful counterparts and that extra 200hp in total will be felt mid-season when there's some growth on the hull and a full complement of cruising kit on board. 

Princess quotes a 31-33 knot top speed and, depending on load, that is perfectly achievable. The 12.8-litre in-line 6s have plenty of punch and make easy work of shifting the F55's 31-tonne (at half load) weight on to the plane, where it will happily sit at 25 knots with noise readings in the saloon of just 73 dB(A).

Around the Marina

The F55 is only offered with shaft drives but if the joystick manoeuvrability of IPS holds great appeal don't worry, because Princess has an answer for that. As a cost option, there is a Volvo Penta joystick, which combines the twin shafts and Sleipner bow and stern thrusters to offer pod-style joystick control on a twin-shaft drive boat. The joystick isn't quite as smooth and responsive as an IPS installation but it's not far off and if the idea of using throttles and thrusters independently is a bit intimidating this is a great option to have.

Personally, I don't think a joystick is a must-have option because you have such great control with the throttles and brilliant proportional thrusters, but I would probably opt for the stern thruster for fine adjustments if you're going to berth stern-to, as is the norm in the Med.  

The absence of a door at the lower helm means that crewing isn't as easy as it is on, say, the Absolute 56 Fly or Sealine F530 but there are electric windows on both sides of the salon to aid communication with crew and natural ventilation on the main deck. 

Most skippers will probably opt to berth the boat from the upper helm, where you can see both ends of the boat very clearly when coming alongside. 

The day of our sea trial in Princess's home port of Plymouth brought with it stiff south westerlies and challenging sea conditions but the F55 took all of this in its stride. The twin 900hp engines have more than enough grunt to haul the boat out of deeper troughs without it getting bogged down and the hull irons out the worst of the bumps with ease. 

The handling is far more playful than you might expect of a boat of this style, the benefit being that amongst larger crests it is very easy - rewarding, in fact - to hand steer the boat through the worst of it. The steering is light but not artificially so and with just 2.5 turns from lock to lock, the boat reacts keenly to inputs from the helm station(s), banking eagerly and turning on itself within a couple of boat lengths.

It's quiet, too, with sound levels at the lower help barely registering above 70dB(A) at cruising speed, making this a very relaxing position to cover hard yards from. 

The driving position is good at both helms and with slide adjustment on the seats and adjustable steering wheels it should be easy for skippers of all shapes and sizes to get comfortable. At the lower helm, there is enough headroom to stand and drive, even for those over 6ft, and the lift bolster on each seat provides a comfortable spot to lean on. Both around the marina and at sea, the F55 is polished and easy to handle.

Design & Build

The Princess/Olesinksi partnership is almost as old as time itself and the two brands appear to be able to knock out cohesive, ageless designs with staggering consistency. Adding the Turin-based design house Pininfarina into that mix has done nothing to upset that synergy and has bestowed the modern Princess with a swooping curvy architecture that is restrained and beautifully clean. 

Does the F55 lack a bit of visual punch? There's an argument that it does, certainly in contrast to the rakish Azimut 53 and more bombastic designs from the likes of Absolute and Galeon. 

Fit and finish are as high as we have come to expect from Princess and attention to detail are impressive. The quality and sculptural finish of the mooring gear alone sets the tone on a boat where it's clear that designers and engineers have gone the extra mile to provide aesthetic functionality. It's not just the stuff you can see, either. Digging behind the scenes is easy because access panels are hinged and open on simple pop catches, so getting behind the helm, for example, couldn't be simpler. 

It's the same story in the engine room where the motors are mounted with plenty of space around all sides, there is lashings of sound-deadening material and plumbing and wiring are neatly labelled with functions and flow directions. It's an easy boat to drive but, for an owner-operator, it's also a very easy boat to live with. 

Interior Accommodation

The curvature that characterises the F55's exterior continues inside where the neatly rounded edges are not only good on the eye but much more friendly to knock into at sea, compared to a sharp corner. There is a variety of wood and upholstery choices but the mix of oak wood and blue upholstery on our test boat (not pictured) struck a somewhat austere tone without the personal touches of an owner.

The quality can't be faulted, though, from the execution of the woodwork to the delightfully subtle use of recessed lighting and the dedicated storage for everything from cutlery to crockery and glassware.

The galley's position aft works especially well with the top-hinged window to port, which opens the kitchen to the cockpit and creates a bar between the two areas. The galley itself features a domestic fridge-freezer and induction cooking plus a decent dishwasher, replacing the slightly hopeless drawer-style machine that was fitted to the Mk1 F55. 

Another change from the previous generation boat is that there is no longer the spear of GRP running into the saloon windows, which makes for even better views out of the vast glazed area. The bulwarks neatly drop with the window line so even when sitting in the main saloon area the views out are superb. The levels of natural light drawn into the main deck are superb, too. 

Our test boat had a stylish coffee table at the dinette but there is the option to have a proper table on a hi-lo mechanism for those who want the option to dine inside the boat. 

The boat has a three-cabin layout with the option to add a (rather good) crew cabin in the transom as an option. The layout comprises three cabins and two bathrooms with the VIP and twin guest cabins sharing a bathroom, though the VIP has private access from inside the cabin. At this size, there is enough beam for the beds in the twin to be side by side, rather than bunks, and Princess has added to the functionality by adding (as an option) an electric mechanism so the two berths can slide together or apart in a matter of seconds to create a pair of twins or a decent double. 

The VIP ensuite is forward and has well over 6ft of headroom at the end of the bed and a good amount of floor space so it's easy to get changed.  There's a good variety of storage too with eye-level lockers all around, deep drawers built into the base of the bed and a large hanging locker on the starboard side. It would be good to see fiddled edges on the areas on either side of the bed, so loose items can't slide off when the boat is at sea. 

Heading amidships there is day head access to the VIP ensuite and, in the companionway leading to the master suite, a locker to house the washer and dryer, neatly placed between all three cabins.

The master cabin, as is the norm on boats in this sector, is full-beam with its own private ensuite on the port side. Princess has cleverly employed a pocket door here, which slides into the bulkhead, a neat space-saving trick that maximises the amount of room in an ensuite that isn't enormous but is nicely finished, though. 

The stateroom is spacious with plenty of headroom and a flat floor around the large double berth. Here, the hull windows are at their largest and the effect is wonderful. Princess has made the most of the view on the port side by installing a compact dinette where the owner could have a quiet coffee or do a bit of work in private. It's a great space and of more use than the ubiquitous chaise lounge.

Storage is impressive throughout as the starboard side of the cabin is almost exclusively dedicated to stowage solutions, be that deep drawers, a pop-out bureau or the double floor-to-ceiling wardrobe. In a trio of really good cabins, the master is the icing on the cake. 

A single crew cabin is an option but it's a well-designed space that could act as an ad hoc guest cabin if required. It's as nicely finished as the rest of the accommodation, has decent good light thanks to a strip of glazing in the transom and has 6ft of standing headroom. By putting the sink inside the cabin there is more space to move around in the ensuite wet room. If crew space is a priority, the Galeon 550 may be a better option as it has space for two crew.

Helm Station

Both helms benefit from good ergonomics thanks to sliding seats with bolster sections and adjustable steering wheels so most skippers will be able to find a driving position that suits them. The upper helm is more stylish than its counterpart downstairs, especially in the silver paint finish that comes as part of the optional Allure pack. 

Two large MFDs (one is standard) and a smaller engine data screen handle navigation and engine information. The amount of storage for loose items at the upper helm is particularly impressive with everything from shallow slots for mobile phones to cupholders and a deep glovebox that could swallow all manner of kit. 

The lower helm is similarly well designed, though the test boat only had one large MFD whereas most buyers will likely opt for two. The dashboard design is smart and clear, with dark materials dominating so you don't get a reflection of the dash top in the windscreen on really bright days. 

There are electric windows on both sides of the boat but no side door at the helm, which means the F55 isn't quite as easy to crew single-handed as the likes of the Sealine F530 and Absolute 56 Fly. 

The F55 is tightly proportioned - and all the better looking for it - but it doesn't feel as spacious on deck as a Sunseeker Manhattan 55 or Absolute 56 Fly. The spaces are well-balanced, and the inclusion of sun pads with angled backrests, a sofa and a walk-through section on the foredeck make the very most of this extra living space. 

Most boats in this sector stow their tenders on a hi-lo bathing platform (though the Prestige 520 has a tender garage) and the F55's has the capacity (450kg) to launch and recover a Williams 435 Sportjet. However, if the boat is fitted with the optional Seakeeper gyro stabiliser and a passerelle, the platform's capacity drops to 125kg. Worth thinking about if you want a decent tender on the back. 

There is symmetrical access on either side of the transom into the cockpit where there is a decent dinette with a hefty teak table. The quality stands out once again in the substantial stainless steel handrails built into the table support, inset cupholders and the finger slots that are carved into the table edge to make it easier to lift the sections. 

There is a gentle ascent onto the side decks from the cockpit where tall guardrails and well-placed grab rails on the flybridge structure make moving along the sides of the boat safe and easy.  Fender storage is a touch limited but then the crew cabin can double up as a store for the occasions when the fenders need to be off the decks. 

The flybridge is a really well-designed place with a focus on seating. The dinette bench runs right across the aft end of the top deck and there is enough space on the other side of the table for a couple of stools or free-standing chairs. The wet bar is compact but has all you need to serve guests up top including a sink, BBQ grill, fridge and optional icemaker. The bar's proximity to the flybridge hatch means those doing the cooking need to be careful not to step back and disappear down the flybridge staircase.

There is the option to have a hard top with a sunroof over the flybridge but the canvas Bimini with built-in LED lighting is a cheaper alternative that looks better and can be collapsed forward of the helm if shelter isn't required. 

Value For Money

You do tend to pay a premium for a Princess but it's easy to see where that extra money is going. The F55 feels a quality product through and through, uses high-end components and comes as standard with options that many rivals would charge extra for.

This eye on quality, the timeless styling and the fact that Princess doesn't produce in enormous numbers means residual prices tend to be better than the competition, too. 

At the time of the review in August 2022, the price of the boat we tested was £1.78 million inc VAT. 

The exact elements of the specification will be determined by where the boat is kept. If it's off to the Med then air-con, a passerelle and possibly the hard top are must-haves. 

No matter where the boat is going to live, the Allure pack is worth having as it adds an extra bit of polish here and there that really brightens up the deck spaces. 

The NAIM audio system is another good addition, not only because it sounds sensational but it also comes with an inverter that is linked to TV meaning you don't have to fire the generator up to raise/lower it when the boat is disconnected from shore power.

The larger engines are a no-brainer given the small increase in cost and the gain in performance, plus most secondhand buyers will probably be looking for a boat with larger engines. The Seakeeper is a very expensive option but a game-changer if you plan to spend a lot of time on anchor. Keep in mind that if you have that and the passerelle you won't be able to have a tender heavier than 125kg on the bathing platform. 

There was a time when a boat of the F55's size would be a flagship for Princess but its range is in a different stratosphere these days. Even so, the F55 feels like a core Princess product and, in many ways, demonstrates Princess at its best. The styling is timeless, quality and attention to detail are outstanding and there are very few compromises on deck or within the impressive three-cabin interior. 

At sea, its twin 900hp engines provide effortless performance and a decent cruising band. The hull is soft riding and refined and the handling is far more engaging than one might expect for a boat of this style. 

It's a well-worn line but it still rings true: some will find the design a bit plain for this sort of money and if you agree with that statement then something from Azimut, Sunseeker or Galeon offers more visual punch. But as an all-round package there are few boats in this sector better executed or easier to live with than the F55. 

Reasons to Buy

• Timeless appeal
• Quality and attention to detail
• Solid ride and handling
• Excellent helm ergonomics

Things to Consider

• No side door at lower helm
• Styling may be a little safe for some

This is one of the most hotly contested sectors in the market so, as good as the F55 is, it faces stiff competition from some of the biggest names in production boat building. 

One criticism that the F55 may face is that its styling is a bit safe, which isn't something you can accuse the Azimut 53  of. Designed by Alberto Mancini, it is dripping with Italian style inside and out and its IPS drivetrain promises easy close control and smooth performance out on the water. On board, there are three good cabins and the option for a crew space. It is expensive, however. 

There is strong homegrown talent in the form of the Sunseeker Manhattan 55 . This is one of the most popular models that Sunseeker has built in recent times and it's not hard to see why. A class-leading flybridge deck, head-turning looks, three spacious cabins and 30-knot performance from the same D13 900s as the Princess make for a mightily compelling cruising machine. Those looks won't appeal to everybody, though. 

The Absolute 56 Fly is one of the cleverest boats in the sector and uses the available space on board brilliantly. It's IPS only, though, so if you don't want pods it's not for you. The reward is outstanding internal packaging including a very clever VIP double with the bed mounted facing forward on the centreline, creating one of the best guest cabins in the sector. It won't age as gracefully as the Princes but in terms of quality and attention to detail, Absolute is right up there these days.

Princess Yachts F55 Wins Best Flybridge Up To 60 Feet Award

The Princess Yachts F55 Flybridge has won the award for "Best Flybridge Up To 60 Feet" presented by Motor Boat and Yachting Magazine. Described by MBY as the "real bread and butter for the (Princess Yachts) yard", the F55 simply does everything right.

Delighted to announce that the Princess F55 has won the @mbymagazine award for best Flybridge up to 60ft. #MotorBoatAwards #experiencetheexceptional pic.twitter.com/ixbC9mlMeo — Princess Yachts (@_PrincessYachts) May 8, 2019

The Princess Yachts 55 Flybridge won despite stiff competition in its class against the Azimut 55, Galeon 360 Fly and 460 Fly, and the Sealine F430. The MBY Awards are "the only marine awards with the motor boat buyers' best interests at heart," according to their website. The awards are judged purely on the design, ability, and value for money amongst their peers in the same size and class. "This is a testament to the quality and craftsmanship that goes into every Princess Yacht ," said Jay Hendrix , Vice President of SI Yachts. "We receive a lot of interest in 50 to 60 foot Princess Yachts, it's definitely a popular segment for the brand."

(Seen below: A video review of the Princess 55 by Motor Boat & Yachting)

Princess made sure the F55 was just as much focused on entertainment as it is on cruising accommodations. The aft cockpit on the Princess 55 Flybridge is just one of those places on board that guests seem to congregate around. The teak swim platform is hydraulic and lowers into the water for easy off-boarding, scuba diving, and simply relaxing at the water's edge. The flybridge overhang provides shade to the sitting area on the cockpit. This space features a comfortable couch and table for outside dining and connects to the galley and salon when the aft doors are completely open.

The galley onboard the Princess F55 is placed aft for convenient serving to the outside cockpit. With the aft doors open and the galley window up, the entire salon and cockpit are fully connected created a wonderful open and sunshine-filled layout. Everything you need to entertain guests for a night cruise or feed your crew during an extended voyage is in the galley including the best appliances and an abundance of storage.

The dining space on the F55 is up a few steps from the galley which provides a small, but nice separation between the two spaces without cutting them off. The dining area has room for 8 guests and is across from a second couch that sits in front of a hidden flat-screen television. Two comfortable seats are stationed at the helm placed starboard.

The lower deck of the Princess F55 features 3 large staterooms and 3 heads. As you can see below, the VIP stateroom and the third guest cabin share a head, while the full-beam master suite has its own. The VIP features a large double berth with lots of storage space.

The master suite also features a large double berth with room to walk around either side. There is a dressing table, a wardrobe closet with shelves, drawers under the bed, and additional storage lockers. The hull-side windows and hatches provide plenty of lower deck natural light and ventilation.
