The socks 🤣. They'd give old ladies an attack of the vapours. Cracking boat!
Great to have you back and brilliant honest walk through thank you for not opening every b!0ody cupboard and deck shower door and stating the obvious I’ve still not had those numbers up but when I do 😉👍
We are ready when you are 😉
So much better than my bad comments about the wind noise on your mike. 😊
The water was the same colour as your trousers, bit matchy matchy 😂. Agree on the dishwasher, I’m not running my generator for two hours just to clean the dishes
Fantastic piece of kit, really like the Princess units. Nice to watch on a cold winter day from Ontario, Canada and hey, quit being such a Nancy about the cold, -1C is practically balmy in my neck of the woods 😁
You are right but we are not used to it 😂
Yeah. I was just wondering when James would post a new video. Always entertaining, informative, funny, and unapologetic because they are honest.
Ah thanks Cliff 😊
My first proper experience of Princess was a 55. A friend of mine drove it from Denmark to Gran Canaria with no problem at all so for sure it would be a great little boat for the Med. Great to see you, Happy New Year and looking forward to many more this year. I think it took quite a long time but since then, performance etc has got much better.
Yes they are great boats. Happy new year!
Great video
Lovely vessel
Keep them coming please
🙏
"Oi James..... get on!!!"
Brilliant video and thanks for bringing us this beautiful Princess. She still looks amazing despite her age 😍 and so much space for a 52 footer ( don't suppose she's called Tardis by any chance 😂😂)
Keep up the great work and I look forward to seeing your next video 👍
All the best
Russ
Thanks Russ 🥳🥳
I just discovered this channel, and love it! The 52 is just fantastic 🤩👊
P.S. always show the engine room 😁💪
Ah thanks Pekka 🥳
A lovely boat from that prestigious brand "Princess Yachts ", I've been lucky enough to pilot several of this model over the past ten or so years. Another informative and honest tour from James Barke of Boats. Co. UK 😊
Thanks John !
That crew cabin looks kind of fun and cozy 🤷🏻♂ With a nice window too
Super cozy !
bet you'll be glad when the dredging is finished and the pretty boats are back at the bottom of the ramp, thought you was lost walking up the outer arm 😂🤣
Yes it was a long walk 😂
Just seen the report about your Dad at Andrewsfield last September. Pleased to see he and his passenger weren't injured. Must have been quite a shock for the whole family
Yes he is pretty deadly in that - but he is also a lucky man. He needs to slow down at 81 😂
@Boatscouk I think those of us who live on the ground generally would agree with that sentiment 👍🏻
Great to see you again JB!! I have missed you. I was CZcams-less for a few weeks. Now with a new iPad, it’s all good again and I can watch James entertain us on his beautiful boats. Yeah they’re nice socks but you need something flashier mate…like your personality! What size feet have you got?! I totally agree with you, the Princess52 is a special boat. Real quality. And yes…you do look like the kid from ‘Up’!! Wishing you a very Happy New Year from the Giant’s Causeway coast of Northern Ireland. 😄👍☘️🛥️
Ah thanks MM ! Enjoy the new iPad 🥳🥳🥳
Good job the waters not frozen... :)
😂
Hi James. Happy New Year! Thank god somebody's banging on about shaft drive options for modest sized craft........ let's hope some manufacturers listen...... mmmm. Here in Australia we've got Riviera doing shaft drive (some big boats only) and Caribbean. Don't know about Maritimo. There's the lovely Nimbus coupes.... oh yes and Rodman...... but really, for those of us who don't necessarily want the big service bills of stern drives or worse I imagine, IPS there aren't many choices...... Cheers. S
Ah thanks Scott. 🙏
Great cigar socks
😂
Lovely boat James, now get a hot Bovril inside yourselves!
Good idea !
i think that this is a fantastic boat, of i had the money i would buy this tomorrow.
I love this boat, i would not change anything.
I have to agree 👍🏻
Thanks for the engine tour, how ever fleeting.
Ah thanks Kevin 🙏
A brilliant walk through as usual! I have one general questions: why do you include depreciation as well as loan down payments as part of the costs? Wouldn't the straight 10 year mortage repayment cover all necessary depreciation over for the period?
Yes it would. We add depreciation for cash buyers 😀
These videos are always entertaining.. Does anyone ever use the 'crew cabin' for crew on boats this size? I looked at a Princess 500 that had a little aft crew cabin but man, you would really have to not like your crew to put them down there. Handy storage though and I'm sure at the end on this 52 there is a little heads too. A nice boat though and well laid out. Profit margins are no doubt better on going bigger but a 50-52 of this type makes a lot of sense..
Yes crew cabins are used a lot in the Med and Asia 😀
@@Boatscouk Poor buggers... Steerage class is alive and well. "Jaaaack..Jaaaack... Get out of the crew cabin!!" 😁
Very nice boat, for me it does indeed look like a perfect design. Surprised how similar it is to the Princess 49, but the third cabin has side by side bed instead of bunks, bonus (extra beam). The lounge area looks a bit bigger too. Looks like the original owner ticked all the boxes. I'm sure with some Setag treatment it can feel no inferior to a 49 or F50, it's very close as it is.
Yes agreed but shaft drive not IPs 😀
Yes. IPS and a few more knots it seems, I'm yet to own my own boat but maybe one day. I can tell from the video that the 52 has quality and class, a proper boat. Love the socks, not very PC with the cigars showing though, these days smoking is frowned upon :) @@Boatscouk
@@timk3939 😂😂
Having a nice skip through this one to see the highlights, notice your chapter labels do not match the video, though. Unless the forward VIP really does have engines in it...
Oops - soz - will fix
Can you say why you're not a fan of ice makers? Are they just carp or did you have a difficult experience with one?😂
They always break down and the manufacturers say it’s not their fault 😂
Limoge is an area, not a company
Thanks Paul 😍
Very nice but .. a tad ..not so exciting as as a FAIRLINE ..JUST MY Opinion but let's put it in the bag to look at ..possibly .. roll on Palma 😂👍🏴
But classy and well made though 😀
Yes but we'll be shopping for something like it soonish 😂👍🏴
I wudn't wanna come back for another video to see that guy……
😂😂
Cigar socks? More like 3rd leg
😂
That hat makes u look like Davy Crocketts fat brother😂
😂😂
You're not a great fan of a lot of stuff. 😂
True!
You aren't a great fan of intelligence either are you?
Nope 😂
