2007 Princess 23M

The Princess 23M, model year 2007, is a Turkish-flagged motor yacht combining elegant design, impressive performance, and extensive recent upgrades. With an overall length of approximately 23 meters, she features a sleek fiberglass hull and is powered by twin MTU 10V engines delivering 1,520 HP each, with approximately 1,500 and 1,600 engine hours. She offers a cruising speed of around 18 knots and a maximum speed of up to 30 knots, providing an excellent balance between comfortable long-distance cruising and exhilarating performance.

Designed for luxury and extended cruising, the yacht offers generous accommodation for family and guests, with six cabins and eight heads, providing excellent privacy and comfort. Her onboard systems include Onan 17.5 kW and 22.5 kW generators, while a 900 Ah LiFePO4 battery bank and six Schmid-Pekintaş 550 W solar panels, designed to withstand acid and corrosion, provide substantial energy capacity and support a high degree of autonomous operation. A Mitsubishi Fin stabilizer system further enhances comfort both underway and at anchor.

Navigation and onboard electronics have been upgraded with 2022-model Raymarine equipment, ensuring modern navigation capabilities. The yacht also comes with a custom-designed tender powered by a 70 HP Yamaha outboard, offering convenient access to the shore and additional versatility for exploring anchorages.

The interior has been thoughtfully redesigned to create a more spacious, practical, and elegant living environment. The internal staircase was removed, and the original floor carpeting was replaced with Merbau wood and teak, significantly enhancing the main salon's appearance and sense of space. The flybridge has been completely renewed, featuring an eight-person seating area with dining table, a three-person sunbathing area, and an additional six-person seating arrangement, making it an ideal space for entertaining and enjoying time outdoors.

Her exterior living areas have also received significant attention. The yacht features a 130 cm additional hydraulic swim platform concealed within the hardtop, while the hydraulic swim platform and transom teak were renewed at the beginning of the current season. These upgrades not only improve functionality but also contribute to the yacht's fresh and sophisticated appearance.

Overall, this Princess 23M represents a particularly well-equipped example benefiting from substantial investment and upgrades across her energy systems, navigation equipment, interior, flybridge, teakwork, swim platform, and outdoor living areas. Combining proven MTU performance with modernized systems, generous accommodation, and enhanced autonomous capability, she is exceptionally well suited for extended cruising, entertaining, and comfortable life at sea.
