Taking you back in time with this tour of a 1992 Princess 46 Riviera!

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. 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. ⚓ (And right at the end, we settle an important debate: can a 1992 Volvo-powered motor yacht start without producing a cloud of smoke? Dan certainly thinks so… 😄) ⏱️ Timestamps 00:37 Exterior walkaround and classic 80s styling 01:37 Spacious cockpit tour 03:25 Helm station and upgraded electronics 05:09 More on the cockpit 06:15 Saloon and galley walkthrough 08:00 Master cabin and Jack & Jill heads 09:40 Guest cabin and additional storage 11:03 Immaculate engine room inspection 11:57 Full cost breakdown 14:44 JB’s Measure of Pleasure score 15:35 Final verdict on this classic Princess 16:16 Engine start-up smoke test #PrincessYachts #Princess46Riviera #MotorYacht #BoatTour #UsedBoats #LuxuryYacht #ClassicBoats #VolvoPenta #YachtLife #BoatingUK 🔔 Like & Subscribe for more exclusive factory tours and boat reviews!
