Join us in the sunny Formentera in Ibiza for a full tour of this 2022 Princess V55! We sailed all the way from our Boats.co.uk HQ in Essex, and we’re here for our annual summer cruise! (Pardon any mess you might see on this tour, James and Charles have been staying on board - for business purposes, of course 😉) This boat is one of over 100 - an unusual statistic in the boating world, but it just goes to show how popular it really is - and we are going to show you why! We start by showing you the spacious garage and HiLo platform, that could easily fit both a Williams Tender and a Jet Ski, for ultimate accessibility. Then, onboard, we continue to explore the amount of space on offer, from the sun pad and side decks, and the large seating area, so all of your guests can lounge in comfort, enjoying the range of extras that are included! We get a full review and honest opinion of the 3 cabins down below, since James and Charles have been staying on board, and it’s safe to say that they were comfortable! 💤 Lastly in the tour, we take a look at the bow, with even more seating and sun roof, and take in the stunning sites of Formentera from the berth. ☀️ As always, we take you through the full cost of owning this boat, from finances, to fuel, and James’ Measure of Pleasure (this one does not fail to impress!) ⭐️ ⏱️ Timestamps 00:55 A 'speedy' look at the garage 02:14 Spacious cockpit tour and included extras 06:41 Helm station 08:33 Master Cabin (James' room) 11:42 VIP cabin (Charles' room) 12:31 Engine room inspection 13:09 Back at the bow 14:17 Full cost breakdown 16:10 JB’s Measure of Pleasure score 17:14 A summary of the Princess V55 #PrincessYachts #PrincessV55 #MotorYacht #BoatTour #UsedBoats #LuxuryYacht #ClassicBoats #YachtLife #BoatingUK 🔔 Like & Subscribe for more exclusive factory tours and boat reviews!

Step back in time with this beautifully preserved 1992 Princess 46 Riviera! In this video, we take a full tour of one of the cleanest and best-kept examples we’ve seen, exploring the retro styling, spacious cockpit, classic 80s and 90s design features, and the thoughtful upgrades that make this boat stand out today. Designed in the late 1980s and built in 1992, this Princess 46 Riviera is a rare example of a classic sports cruiser that has been exceptionally well cared for throughout its life. We don’t normally take boats of this age in part exchange, but the condition of this one genuinely stopped us in our tracks. From the gleaming gelcoat and original styling cues to the spotless engine room, it’s clear this boat has had owners who cared. See our full video where we take you through the huge cockpit, upgraded helm, accommodation layout, and engine room, while also discussing what it’s really like to own a 33-year-old luxury motor yacht. You’ll see the two-cabin, two-head layout, plenty of storage, and some charming period details that simply don’t exist on modern boats anymore. As always, we break down the numbers too. We cover the prices, finances, fuel consumption, annual running costs, servicing, berthing, insurance, and depreciation, giving you a realistic picture of ownership. If you’ve ever wondered whether an older Princess could be an affordable way into boating, this video should help answer that question. Whether you’re a fan of classic motor yachts, considering your first family boat, or simply love seeing well-maintained examples of boating history, this Princess 46 Riviera is well worth a look. ⚓ Check out the full video at https://youtu.be/7WpDWHotbtk 🔔 Like & Subscribe for more exclusive factory tours and boat reviews!

Here's something a little different for you - what kind of boat can you get for under 20k? Join us on a tour of a 1976 Mitchell 31 - it's a small one (the review and the boat), but it's got a lot going for it (the review and the boat). This is just a short version of the full tour - check out our latest video for the full version, or click here: https://youtu.be/SG4XH5GSmXA James showcases the surprising amount of room, both outside and in, as well as some key features that only come with a 50 year old boat, including the smell 🤣 Warning: it's a little choppy on the sea today (but only around this boat, for some reason?) so take your motion sickness tablets before watching.

James' speed review of the Botnia Targa 32 - the 4x4 of the sea! In just 3 minutes, go on a tour of the 2019 edition and witness all of the features that make this boat a standout! This is a boat designed and built in Finland, where harsh weather and choppy waters demand serious engineering, resulting in something that feels incredibly solid, confidence-inspiring, and ready to take on just about anything you throw at it. This model includes the sleek black pack, a hardtop configuration (far more usable than the small flybridge alternatives), an external helm that’s ideal for fishing 🎣 or manoeuvring in tighter spaces, and much, much more! James' did an extended tour that is now live on the Boats.co.uk YouTube channel - check it out here: https://youtu.be/x3RKFtPwPJA James breaks down the running costs, from purchase, to fuel burn and servicing. If you want a boat that you can use year-round, in real conditions, without compromise, the Targa 32 makes a very strong case for itself. 🔔 Like & Subscribe for more exclusive factory tours and boat reviews!

If you’re looking for a boat that feels utterly indestructible, the Botnia Targa 32 has a reputation that's hard to ignore. Often referred to as the “4x4 of the sea”, this is a boat designed and built in Finland, where harsh weather and choppy waters demand serious engineering. The result? Something that feels incredibly solid, confidence-inspiring, and ready to take on just about anything you throw at it. This particular 2019 example comes with some standout features, including the sleek black pack, a hardtop configuration (far more usable than the small flybridge alternatives), and an external helm that’s ideal for fishing 🎣 or manoeuvring in tighter spaces. Step inside and you’re met with a refreshingly honest interior—no unnecessary frills, just high-quality materials, clever storage, and a layout that prioritises practicality over show. It’s the kind of boat where everything feels built to last. Accommodation is compact but very well thought through, with a forward cabin, an aft cabin offering multiple berths, and a functional heads compartment. Up at the helm, visibility is excellent and the controls are reassuringly simple. Paired with twin 400hp Volvo engines, this Targa doesn’t just feel tough - it delivers serious performance too, cruising comfortably while still capable of pushing up to impressive speeds. We also take a detailed look at what it actually costs to own one, from purchase price and finance, through to fuel burn, servicing, and annual running costs. If you want a boat that you can use year-round, in real conditions, without compromise, the Targa 32 makes a very strong case for itself. ⏱️ Timestamps: 00:46 – Introducing the 2019 Botnia Targa 32 01:56 – Unique cockpit features 02:50 – Tour of the interior 06:33 – Helm position & visibility 07:37 – Forward cabin 08:40 – Aft cabin & bathroom layout 10:12 – Engine bay & twin 400hp Volvos 11:04 – A look at the Bow 12:23 – Ownership costs breakdown 14:16 – JB’s Measure of Pleasure & final verdict 🔔 Like & Subscribe for more exclusive factory tours and boat reviews!

In this video we take a mini tour around Barbados in 2026, exploring some of the island’s most interesting boating spots — both on and off the water. We start at the beautiful Port St Charles marina, where luxury yachts sit in crystal-clear turquoise water and beachfront homes have their boats moored right outside. With the Caribbean sea sitting at a warm 28°C, it’s not a bad place to begin the day. 🇧🇧🌊 From there we hop into our rather unusual “press car” and head across the island, stopping along the rugged Atlantic coast to take in some dramatic scenery — including the famous mushroom-shaped rock formation and stunning coastal views that feel very different from the calm west coast beaches. One of the most interesting stops is a small local boatyard, packed with character and filled with all sorts of boats in various stages of repair. From narrow skiffs and old MasterCrafts to simple fishing boats with Yamaha outboards, it’s a fascinating glimpse into the practical side of Caribbean boating. Finally, we head out onto the water aboard a catamaran sailing from Bridgetown, cruising along the west coast with beautiful beaches, calm seas and views of famous spots like Sandy Lane. It’s the perfect way to end a day exploring one of the Caribbean’s most scenic boating destinations. 🌊⛵ ⏱️ Timestamps: 0:07 Port St Charles Marina & luxury yachts 0:53 Our unusual “press car” around the island 2:07 Atlantic coast views & Mushroom Rock 3:04 Exploring a hidden local boatyard 7:44 Boarding a catamaran in Bridgetown 8:37 Mini tour of the catamaran 9:39 Tour of the Colony Club hotel and beach 🔔 Like & Subscribe for more exclusive factory tours and boat reviews!
