Boat Lagoon Yachting has announced four sales of the Princess Y85 in the first quarter of 2022. One of the sales is the first Y85 in Asia, which has most recently been in Phuket, while a further unit has been sold in Thailand, home to Boat Lagoon Yachting’s headquarters. The other two units were sold to Singapore, where the regional dealer has an office at ONE°15 Marina Sentosa Cove.

The Y85 was designed by Princess in collaboration with naval architects Olesinksi and Italian styling house Pininfarina, and will remain the flagship of the Y Class of motor yachts until the launch of the Y95 in 2022.
The Y85 can be been customised for regional tastes, as evidenced on the unit in Phuket, which features a round dining table in the saloon, integrated Asian-European galley and bar feature, and a spa pool on the flybridge.

Vrit Yongsakul, Group Managing Director of Boat Lagoon Yachting, said: “The Y Class has always been popular with our clients seeking large, luxurious motor yachts, as each model within the range has been designed to suit longer journeys, with guest comfort and exceptional seakeeping a priority. The Y85 allows our clients to travel very comfortably throughout Southeast Asia.
“Our Asian owners particularly enjoy eating and socialising on board, often with a family across many generations, from children to grandparents. The round dining table is great for family gatherings or for corporate entertainment during business gatherings.”
