PRINCESS YACHTS Y72 boatlagoonyachting.com

Arriving on our shores this November, the all-new Princess Yachts Y72 unveiled at the Cannes Yachting Festival is a standout created in collaboration with renowned naval architects Olesinski and an Italian design house Pininfarina. At an overall length of 22.8m with a beam of 5.45m, the Y72 is the smallest in Princess Yachts’ Y Class. However, its stunning exterior design, silver oak interior wood satin finish, and clever layout elevate its spaciousness and grandeur while maximizing storage areas.

It boasts a massive hi-lo bathing platform that can lift over 500kg, making it suitable for lifting a tender from the water and storing it aboard. The main deck’s rear seating area features a wraparound couch covered by a two-tone, stainless steel-trimmed headline – one of the many subtle style details found throughout the Y72.

This area connects to the interior main deck through a grand sliding glass door, which leads to bright and roomy dining and seating areas, and a bar and the helm. The saloon is complemented by a multi-zone Naim audio system that has the multi-streaming capability and a dedicated app. Many hidden storage areas are located between furniture and in the side walls.

Fitted in the aft galley are a full-height refrigerator/freezer, oven, range top, and other kitchen amenities. The galley’s rear lift window also opens upwards to act as a serving hatch to allow the quick passage of food and beverages to the rear seating area.
