Princess V40 Aurea

Boat Overview

The Princess V40 MKI was built from 1996 to 1999 and offers superb performance combined with economy from the twin KAD43 DP 230 hp engines. She can comfortably cruise at 22 knots. The open cockpit allows for easy entertainment of 6 to 8 guests with a forward seating area to keep the helm company underway. The interior features a high quality of finish, as expected from Princess Yachts. The high gloss walnut is in excellent condition, along with all fixtures and fittings. With a large berth forward and an aft cabin that converts from 2 singles to a double, she is suitable for couples with occasional guests or families alike.

'Aurea' is in beautiful condition, a tribute to her current owners. The gold hull is complemented by recent cockpit covers and upholstery, along with Princess detailing. She has just undergone a full service, antifoul, and polish in readiness for the 2025 season. The engine room has been fully refurbished, and the cockpit teak looks stunning. She is currently afloat in her marina berth in Falmouth, which is available via negotiation.

Please call our Falmouth office for further information or to arrange a viewing.
