The V55 Princess has a spectacular layout with a full beam owner’s stateroom, scissor queen bed forward, & over under bunks to starboard. The upper salon features hard wood flooring throughout, full featured helm station with side-by-side seating & a smartly laid out galley behind. A U-shaped sofa is on the port side with a coffee table, and the whole salon opens to the sky with an electric sunroof in the hard top. A unique TV raises out of the salon cabinetry with a power swivel to enable viewing from the aft deck. Probably the most unique feature of this yacht is the stainless steel and glass salon door that disappears into the floor, with a touch of a button, to reveal an unobstructed indoor/outdoor entertainment option. Moving to the deck, the V55 has a folding teak table for outdoor dining and ample seating. A convenient wet bar with refrigeration, Icemaker and grill are to starboard and there is a large sunbed centerline above the tender garage. Below the cockpit deck is the engine room with full standing headroom and a lazarette area with its own entry under the sun pad. The decks feature full walk arounds forward to a second walk-thru seating area with sunbed, sofa and cocktail table. All the exterior cockpit deck area and swim platform are clad in rich teak wood.
