Manufacturer Provided Description

Her resin-infused deep-V hull presents you with a truly breathtaking experience. When the moment comes she will intuitively and precisely cut through the waves, lock-to-lock without concern. And when at rest, her welcoming flybridge will draw you in with a large wetbar, optional barbecue and social seating surrounding a large teak table – just the thing for memorable evenings under the stars.

Her aft-galley layout is a wonderfully social feature servicing both the cockpit and the main deck dining area with ease.

Princess 52: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Boat Test Review on BoatTest.com

Overview

The Princess Yacht 52 Fly is a cruising yacht designed to balance comfortable operation with an inviting atmosphere for entertaining guests. It features twin 800-horsepower MAN R6 counter-rotating engines and a well-thought-out layout that keeps the captain centrally positioned among the social areas, enhancing both usability and guest interaction.

Engine Room and Mechanical Systems

Accessed directly from the cockpit, the engine room houses the twin MAN R6 engines with a center catwalk for daily maintenance checks, although standing headroom is limited. The two fuel tanks are positioned outboard of the engines and insulated with thermal wrap. Soundproofing is notably effective, with noise levels measured at only 81 decibels in the master stateroom during cruising speed.

Helm Layout and Controls

The main electrical panel is conveniently located near the lower helm at the companionway, featuring backlit 12-volt DC and AC systems. The flybridge helm is positioned starboard on the deck but with the helm console to port, including twin all-weather vinyl seats and a hardtop option composed of separate modules. Controls are logically grouped, with analog gauges above and operational switches such as autopilot, spotlight, trim tabs, and engine controls mounted vertically. A joystick option using the Zenta system enhances maneuverability and sightlines, although the standard setup still offers clear visibility through the companionway to the transom.

Lower Helm Station

The lower helm features two adjustable ultra-leather upholstered seats, allowing for an active observer role during navigation. Instrumentation includes twin analog tachs, a rudder angle indicator, engine displays, and controls for water depth, temperature, thrusters, autopilot, spotlight, ignition, and engine start-stop. Emergency steering is supported by a hydraulic backup system. The helm wheel is leather-rimmed and tilt-adjustable, complemented by a footrest and VHF handset for convenience.

Dimensions and Performance

The yacht measures 53 feet 8 inches overall in length, with a beam of 15 feet 7 inches and a draft of 4 feet 1 inch. Its empty weight is 54,200 pounds, with an estimated test displacement of 59,575 pounds including fuel, water, and four passengers. Powered by twin 800-horsepower MAN R6 engines turning 26.5 by 45 bi-bladed props, the vessel achieved a top speed of 30.7 knots at 2350 RPM, consuming 79.6 gallons per hour and providing a range of 220 nautical miles. Optimal cruise speeds ranged from 25.7 to 28.6 knots, with fuel consumption between 67 and 72.3 gallons per hour, yielding ranges around 219 to 226 nautical miles. Acceleration to planing speed took 10.9 seconds, with 20 mph reached in 12.8 seconds and 30 mph in 25.8 seconds.

Handling and Ride Quality

The 52 Fly demonstrates excellent low-speed handling and responsiveness, including effective steering even with engines out of gear. The bow rises approximately 12 degrees during acceleration before settling to a 3-degree bow-high attitude on plane. The yacht rolls comfortably up to 19 degrees during turns, with the bow dipping slightly to facilitate smooth carving without sliding. Its chines and spray rails effectively deflect spray, contributing to a dry ride. Electric steering requires only gentle input, and the vessel maneuvers well through narrow channels at speed. Variable-speed bow and stern thrusters from Side-Power, featuring hold-position functionality and multiple speed settings, enhance docking ease, especially for single-handed operation.

Deck and Exterior Features

The yacht is equipped with large 13-inch stainless steel cleats and well-designed chocks for line management, though additional chafing gear on the sides would be beneficial. Side decks are 13 inches wide with rails ranging from 30 inches midships to 41 inches at the bow. The windlass system includes a boom arm running to a stainless steel anchor chute, a hatch for anchor chain management, and fresh water washdown with windlass controls. Latches on deck hatches utilize a turn-and-release mechanism, which may be less preferred compared to lift-and-release styles.

Additional Accommodation Features

A cruise berth is accessible from the cockpit, featuring a single berth with an adjacent sink and counter space. This area benefits from a large transom window and an opening port light, providing natural light and ventilation.

Conclusion

The Princess Yacht 52 Fly impresses with its solid build quality, comfortable ride, and adept handling characteristics. Its thoughtful design supports both enjoyable cruising and entertaining, ensuring guest comfort underway. The combination of performance, maneuverability, and operational convenience makes it a well-rounded choice in its class.
