Princess V65 Yacht Set to Make World Debut at Cannes Yachting Festival 2025

The Princess V65 is set to make its world debut at the 2025 Cannes Yachting Festival, introducing a new era of sport yacht performance and design. 

At 21m in length, the Princess V65 is the largest model in the current Princess V Class. The sleek open-style cruiser delivers the signature Princess balance of speed, luxury, and livability in a refined new package.

Sporty Design with Practical Performance

Constructed with a GRP hull and superstructure, the V65 is a planing yacht engineered for responsive handling and high-speed cruising. Naval architecture by the Princess in-house team delivers a top speed of 36 knots, powered by a proven deep-V hull design by Olenski.

The hull of the yacht has been optimized for lift and efficiency, offering smoother planing and reduced drag while maintaining stability through choppy waters. Designed for both weekend runs and longer passages, the V65 promises agile, confident performance without compromising on comfort.

Open-Air Living on the Main Deck

The main deck of the Princess V65 is designed for maximum flexibility. Triple sliding glass doors connect the cockpit with the saloon, while a retractable sunroof over the helm floods the space with natural light.

Owners of the motor yacht can transition seamlessly from open-air cruising to climate-controlled interiors, depending on conditions. The cockpit is set up for socializing, with lounge seating and an alfresco dining area, while wide side decks and a foredeck sunpad extend the usable exterior space forward.

Contemporary Interior with Four-Cabin Layout

Below deck, the V65 can accommodate up to eight guests across four cabins, with the layout favoring natural light and open sightlines. Large hull windows introduce sunlight throughout, especially in the full-beam owner’s suite positioned amidships.

Guest accommodation consists of a full-beam owner’s suite, forward VIP cabin, and two twin guest cabins that can be specified with optional sliding berths. This four-cabin configuration allows for up to eight guests, making it a practical choice for families or couples cruising together. There is also an optional single crew cabin aft, offering additional flexibility for private or lightly crewed operation.
