Princess 35M

Onboard the Princess 35M

Princess 35M carries her length with an unshowy, settled presence — a motor yacht built for comfortable cruising rather than for showing off. Four cabins sleep up to 12 guests, and the layout gives a group room to spread out rather than cluster around one salon table for the whole day. The ride is steady rather than sporty, which matters more once you're actually aboard for several hours than any figure on a spec sheet.

Head south from Port Olímpic and the run down to Sitges takes a few hours at an easy pace, enough time to settle into the boat before anchoring off the bay for a swim and a late lunch ashore. It's a shorter outing than a Balearics crossing, lighter on fuel, and well suited to a yacht this size that doesn't need open water to feel substantial — the sheltered bay at Sitges gives calmer footing than Barcelona's own open roadstead.

With four cabins, Princess 35M works equally well for a family splitting across two decks or a small corporate group that wants private space rather than a stand-up reception with a skyline view. Departures run from Port Olímpic, Barcelona's main charter marina, where the crew takes on the harbour's commercial and ferry traffic on the way out — not something to treat casually given how busy the approach gets. Longer plans toward the Balearics are workable on a yacht of this range, though they call for a proper provisioning conversation well ahead of departure.
