2001 Princess 65 Flybridge

This 65-foot Princess Motor Yacht embodies the perfect blend of luxury, performance, and functionality, making it an ideal choice for cruising and entertaining. Initially purchased for a high-profile video production in April, this yacht unfortunately never made it to the shoot due to mechanical issues en route. The owner has no further use for the vessel and is highly motivated to sell, making this an exceptional opportunity for discerning buyers. With over $75,000 invested in recent repairs and maintenance, this yacht is now in prime mechanical condition and ready for its next adventure.

All recent repairs and maintenance were done by Davis Diesel, a reputable service provider based in Leland, NC, known for its expertise in high-performance yachts. The extensive work included:

• 1000-Hour Service: Performed in Jun 2024, this service encompassed oil changes on both engines and the generator, replacement of all relevant filters, and thorough cleaning and testing of the heat exchangers, gear coolers, fuel coolers, and steering coolers. New injectors were installed, and all necessary hoses, clamps, and seals were replaced. The engines were also flushed and refilled with fresh coolant to ensure optimal performance.
• Transmission Coolers: Both were replaced due to corrosion, ensuring the reliability of the yacht's powertrain.
• New Oil Change Pump: A new oil change pump and new saltwater supply hoses and clamps were installed, further enhancing the yacht's mechanical integrity.
• Bottom Job: The yacht received a complete bottom job, including the replacement of zincs, priming, and painting of the running gear.
• Propeller Swap: The propellers were swapped with the ship's spares to ensure maximum performance. The boat still has extra propellers on board.
• Sea Trial: After these extensive repairs, a successful sea trial confirmed that the engines ran smoothly, with consistent and optimal temperatures.

In April 2024, South Florida Marine Surveyors, Inc. conducted a comprehensive survey of the yacht. The vessel, named HMS JULINGTON, was thoroughly inspected by accredited marine surveyor Stephen J. Klaity. The survey valued the yacht at approximately $410,000 and confirmed it as an acceptable marine risk, subject to compliance with a few recommendations. These recommendations have been addressed, including servicing specific systems and minor cosmetic fixes, further enhancing the yacht's appeal.

• Spacious Swim Platform: The yacht features an oversized swim platform, leading to a generous aft deck perfect for alfresco dining or lounging. The seamless flow from the deck to the salon enhances the yacht's open and inviting atmosphere.
• Flybridge: The flybridge, accessed via a stairway in the salon, offers ample seating, sunbathing areas, and panoramic views, making it an ideal spot for socializing or enjoying the open water.
• Note: While the yacht is mechanically sound, the exterior paint and teak could use some attention, which is already a consideration in the pricing.

• Salon: The beautifully appointed salon is a testament to Princess Yachts' commitment to luxury and comfort. It features a cherry cabinet with a drink refrigerator, a two-person loveseat, and a spacious leather settee with storage. Large windows allow for abundant natural light, enhancing the open feel of the space.
• Dining Area: Elevated by two steps, it comfortably seats four to five guests, making it perfect for entertaining. The cherry wood dining table and luxurious upholstery create a warm and inviting ambiance.
• Galley: The fully equipped galley is three steps from the salon and boasts top-of-the-line appliances, including a Neff 4-burner Ceran cooktop, stainless steel sinks, and a Miele dishwasher. Cherry cabinetry and Avonite countertops add a touch of elegance to this functional space.

• Master Stateroom: The master stateroom, located aft, features a diagonal queen berth with storage below, cherry wood nightstands, and a private head. It's a luxurious retreat with plenty of space and light.
• Guest Cabins: The forward guest accommodations include a twin lower berth cabin to port and a VIP cabin in the bow, each with private heads. Both cabins are elegantly finished and provide ample storage.
• Crew Cabin: Accessible from the cockpit, the crew cabin is equipped with a single berth, an office layout, a washer/dryer, and a freezer, ensuring crew members have everything they need for extended voyages.

• Powerful Engines: Twin 1050 MAN engines provide exceptional power and efficiency, ensuring smooth and reliable cruising. The extensive mechanical updates performed by Davis Diesel ensure that the yacht is in excellent running condition.
• Ready for Immediate Use: With over $75,000 invested in recent repairs and many successful sea trials, this yacht is ready for its next journey. Whether you're planning to cruise the open seas or entertain guests in style, this Princess Motor Yacht is up to the task.
