Classic hull, modern drive technology: this Princess 32 combines British build quality with an engine base that goes far beyond the year of construction.
The decisive point lies in the drive system: in 2007, two Volvo Penta AQAD40 diesels with Z-drives were installed. Since then, around 500 operating hours - an early stage of life for these engines. Consistently further developed in recent years: Turbocharger and water pumps overhauled (2023), starter, universal joints and gimbal bearings new (2024), bellows 2026. The history is fully documented, spare parts come from Volvo Penta throughout. This was not managed, but invested in.
The sailing profile matches: Semi-planing with a cruising speed of 17 knots and a top speed of up to 23 knots, CE category B. A boat that goes the distance when you want it to - and remains stable at the same time.
Below deck, the boat is suitable for everyday use: two cabins, five berths, new toilet (2024), gas heating and hot water via engine heat. 600 liters of diesel and 400 liters of water provide the basis for longer cruises without supply pressure. Flexteek deck, solar panels, inverter and tested gas system (2026) complete the system.
The harbor trailer expands the use on land: no fixed berth required, no commitment to an area - you remain flexible.
In short: a proven Princess hull with a modernized diesel twin engine, proven maintenance history and clear operational readiness - a used boat where the technology makes the difference.
