2013 – Princess V39 with Twin Volvo Penta D6 – 330 engines

Parker Adams Boat Sales are pleased to bring to market this beautifully presented Princess V39, built in 2013 and registered as a 2014 model.

Powered by twin Volvo Penta D6 330hp diesel engines with joystick control and just 235 hours, Chapter 4 offers an excellent combination of performance, handling and comfort. She also benefits from a bow thruster, making close-quarters manoeuvring straightforward.

Finished with a striking Midnight Blue hull and waterline, Chapter 4 has undergone an extensive programme of refurbishment and upgrades following comprehensive hull, engine and sterndrive surveys. The resulting work has been carried out by reputable local marine specialists, leaving her exceptionally well prepared for her next owner.

The spacious accommodation includes two separate cabins, a beautifully finished light oak satin interior and additional occasional berths created by the telescopic saloon and cockpit tables. Reverse-cycle air-conditioning and heating, an Onan generator and numerous recent interior upgrades make her equally suited to extended cruising and comfortable weekends aboard.
