Pre-loved extra - For The Good Times
According to mythology a sea wolf is a mystical creature that provides good luck to anyone who lays eyes on her. In the case of our featured Princess 21M, aptly named Sea Wolf
According to her current owners, Sea Wolf has given them, their family and friends plenty of great times aboard, either enjoying all that Sydney Harbour has to offer, or cruising around The Whitsundays, where she has split her time. And she is most capable of entertaining four couples in liveaboard comfort and up to 24 guests for day outings.
In fact, the owners celebrated the passing of the QE2 and the Queen Mary 2 on Sydney Harbour in 2011, hosting 24 family and friends in absolute comfort. Not to mention sitting on the outer reef of The Whitsundays with three other couples and enjoying the Friday Night Football thanks to their satellite TV.
These are just a couple of the wonderful experiences the owners have shared thanks to this beautifully presented and extensively appointed motoryacht.
The owners took delivery of their Princess 21M after the 2008 Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show, and have meticulously cared for her by ensuring all factory service standards have been adhered to, and maintaining a regular detailing regime to present her in as-new condition.
PRINCESS LOYAL
The owners have an extensive history with Princess, starting with a 52, moving to a 65 and onto their current 21M. They have now decided to upsize again to a brand-new Princess 82 due for delivery mid-2013.
When considering their new-boat purchases they reviewed other brands, but always came back to Princess Yachts. According to them, it’s the whole experience that continues to impress, right from the purchase process, to the handover, through to the aftersales service and support. And even though the next owners of Sea Wolf maybe first-time Princess owners, they too can expect that same level of service and after-sales service support thanks to the Australia-wide factory-backed Princess dealer network.
Trade-a-Boat was told the highlights include the ample accommodation, crew quarters (a great oasis for the kids and grandkids), the hydraulic swimplatform and jet tender as some of the key features of the Princess 21M. The swimplatform in particular is a great place for all guests to get in and out of the water from, as well as allowing for a quick and easy launch of the 325 Williams Jet Tender. In fact anyone considering purchasing a vessel of this size will be hard-pressed to find a boat so well maintained, with such an extensive list of inclusions and extras, all at a great price.
And what can the new custodians expect of Sea Wolf? Well, she is built by Princess Yachts for a start, one of the world’s most respected British boatbuilders and, as mentioned, backed by an extensive national dealership network.
Powered by twin MAN 1360 CRM V12 turbo-diesels the Princess 21M cruises effortlessly at 23kts, with a top speed of 32kts, and offers exceptional seakeeping and range.
Internally she is finished in exquisite natural gloss cherrywood timberwork, with a four-cabin layout including a full-beam master and galley-up configuration.Premium leather lounges extend throughout, the exterior seating in Movida Beige, and there’s a full aft cockpit enclosure.
