That interior design is absolutely amazing. One of the best I have seen, possibly the best.
I love that saloon. The dark wooden flooring really makes it look very warmz welcoming, and gives it character. This is a very homely thing for me as an Irishman and presumably most Northern Europeans of coming into a warm, welcoming room, with friends and family, out from the cold. Very cozy. It a good way.
Love this boat. This is the one to go for, at least if you are located pretty far north. So Britain, and the Nordics, and other countries around the Baltic for example.
Those forward sunbeds are excellently designed. Well done whoever did it.
What a great boat, I dont think many will have the third cabin as the extra space allows for the children/guests and owners to have separate spaces to chill in. The engine room is fanastic.
This new V50 is a lovely updated boat, plenty of light and headroom, the enclosed deck version is ideal for northern Europe and as always "Princess yachts " have thought of everything! A cracking tour Jack of a very impressive boat!
Dinette down. My favorite layout!
What a great boat and what a great video! Thanks so much!
Super tour as always Jack and what a fabulous boat. An observation: that wet bar grill….it’s right by the rear glass panel and without a splash guard I imagine that window will get very mucky from cooking. Fitting a protective folding panel shouldn’t prove too difficult. A surprising oversight from such a brilliant boat manufacturer.
Very good presentation of an excellent yacht. Keep up man, cheers !
Princess builds nice boats, you pay for it but they are nice. I think 50 ft is an ideal size between owner operable and accommodations. Nice tour thank you.
6:42 Wow, that helm is impressive looking. Amazing what the right colours, materials and that floating bit does to prove the look of that thing. Also the seats look amazing, and really add to it too.

Yes. The dashboard beats most of limousines currently in the market.
If I had to choose from Galeon 50 to this one, I think I would do this one because the easy access to the engine room.
The configuration with the dynamite on the downstairs is what I like I would actually have the moment the table upstairs and put a coffee table in its place and use that as like the living room lounge play I want to play room whatever you want to call it and and used to downstairs as sleeping and dining
Impressive looking boat but with IPS not on my wanted list !! Also needs a helmsman's door. The galley position is a good move rather than back by the cockpit door. Presumably people couldn't manage to carry a tray of food 15 feet from the galley to the cockpit! I hope that trend is over! .... Hell of a pair of socks Jack !!

What’s wrong with ips?
Like the sun pad on the bow and can change to a chair. Briljant idea
lovely yacht nice walkthrough man
That is a nice boat.
Lekker man lekker 🇿🇦
WoW your dealership on water is amazing with these wonderful old buildings in the back ground. The next James Bond movie should start from your private marina with these magnificent boats 🛥

That’s Royal William Yard in Plymouth. It had sister Yards in Gosport (Royal Clarence Yard) and Kirkliston (Scotland - Royal Elizabeth Yard). They were RNVD (Royal Naval Victualling Depots) from the 17th/18th Century. All of them were fully operative into the 1980’s and played a key part in the Logistics supply chain for the Falklands Conflict (started 40 years ago next month - another dictator went rogue….. sound familiar?) Having worked in one for five years they reeked of the smell of ages. The history was palpable and you could shut your eyes and envision barges laid up alongside filled with stores to be taken out to ships at anchor or alongside in the nearby respective Dockyards. Fair play to Princess for getting the building on the cheap from the MOD and filling them with stylish vessels. In my day it was black and brown PAS (Port Auxiliary Service) boats 👍🏻👍🏻😎

Great walkthrough, Jack, very thorough and informative. Just when you think Princess have it all covered, they find room for improvement. Always looking for ways to better their product. One down point, for me anyway, I do not like the exposed controls in the cockpit. They should be under a protective panel or cover of some sort.
Absolutely beautiful! Good job on the vid… Princess rarely disappoints, easily in my top 3. Btw what camera are u using, a GoPro??
Side decks: 'You have to walk one leg in front of the other.' Ok! 😂😂😂
I really like that aft cockpit area, but I am wondering about side blowing rain hitting those electric controls. Because someone will forget or not be on time or be off the boat, when it rains.
enclosed version is also applicable to the med. not everyone wants the wind in their hair and some people want air conditioning when you get a heat wave

Also, keep toddlers from running onto the windscreen from the forward sunbed area.
What was that creaking at 14:54?
Does it use a heat pump for heating or does it have a diesel fired heater?
@adammazengarb7923

Either or :)
Get the smaller engines especially with the way fuel prices are going even the untaxed diesel cost 5 dollars per gallon
Put a fly bridge on it and I'll have one (as a present)

They do have a fly version, but no freebies. www.princessyachts.com/our-craft/f-class/f50/
It is a great boat. But honesty if I was buying it I would want a few changes the day head why can't you just go out the vp cabin using one door. Also to many windows.
So I don't get this Sportscruiser thing on these size boats. Why would you get this instead of the 50 Flybridge? You lose so much usable space and what do you gain? Sportiness? It's 15 + tons! It's not sporty, it's a small ship. Doesn't make sense to me.

And I’m not driving a boat with my head out of the sunroof - it looks farcical. And when that roof is closed the headroom at the helm is abysmal.
To bad it doesn’t have a second hull & sail - then it would be perfect!

Boring Princess as usual .. no innovation unfortunately. The new boats are offering so much more like the Galeon . A 13 ft beam on a 50 ft boat is a disappointment to say the least compared to other boat manufacturers .. Why no side access doors at the helm is just beyond me as these are mostly owner operated . The finishes have improved but overall nothing to make me want to buy this boat .
Princess boats are overpriced
Stupid place to put a television.
Princess, as boring as ever.
