Broker's Comments

A rare opportunity to buy a Princess 30 DS that has been well maintained and with a plethora of updates!

All new wiring (2020), new shore charging system, water heater, oak flooring, replaced dash top, Glomex TV aerial booster, VHF aerial, additional 240v sockets, new upholstery(2020).

The headlining's have been replaced with a champagne velour which looks stunning and the stern social area is covered with a recent and good condition canopy and frame!

Both engines were replaced in 2017 with only
a couple of hundred hours now showing (203!).

The Princess 30 DS is a well respected boat for both inland and coastal cruising.

Her Broads toll is paid to March 2025 and her Boat Safety Certificate is valid to October 2025.

She had a new cooker fitted in 2023, new fenders just fitted and a solar panel installed in 2023. She comes with a quiet Champion 7300i generator, bow thruster and anchor windlass and is very, very well presented and appears to be in generally good order throughout. She was last surveyed in 2021.

This is a very tidy example of a Princess 30DS and an all gelcoat example of these very popular and spacious cruisers.
