Princess Yachts - Flybridge F58

This striking addition to the acclaimed F Class Flybridge range slots neatly between the popular F55 and flagship F65, delivering a fresh balance of size, style, and substance. For those who demand performance and luxury in equal measure, the F58 looks set to be one of the most talked-about yachts of the season.

A New Benchmark in the Princess F Class

The Princess F Class has long been the standard-bearer of the luxury flybridge market, and the F58 embodies the essence of the range. She blends elegant lines, expansive social spaces, and cutting-edge engineering into a package that feels both timeless and distinctly forward-looking.

With a choice of MAN V8-1000 or MAN V8-1200 engines, the F58 offers exhilarating performance with top speeds of up to 34 knots – more than enough to eat up the coastline of the French Riviera. She also becomes the first Princess yacht under 80 feet to feature the innovative hotel-services battery option, enabling sustainable silent running for onboard systems. For eco-conscious owners, this is a significant leap forward in responsible luxury yachting.

Flybridge Built for Entertaining

The flybridge of the F58 has been carefully designed with social living at its heart. A large dining area and fully equipped wet bar with electric barbecue sit aft, creating the ultimate space for entertaining. The central helm provides superb visibility while a second companion seat ensures no skipper has to sail alone.

Sun lovers are well catered for, too – the starboard seating effortlessly converts into a generous sunpad. Whether dining, lounging, or soaking up the views of Cannes, the flybridge sets the tone for everything the F58 represents: space, comfort, and style without compromise.

Outdoor Living: Foredeck & Cockpit

The innovation continues forward with the foredeck terrace, a feature borrowed from Princess’s larger yachts. Twin sunpads with adjustable headrests can transform into aft-facing seats, creating a versatile space equally suited to private relaxation or entertaining.

At the stern, the cockpit flows seamlessly into the saloon and galley, maximising sociability. This space leads directly to the hydraulic bathing platform and transom “beach club” area. Owners can choose layouts with toy storage, a waterside barbecue with sink, and a fold-down transom seat – the perfect waterside retreat for a morning swim or sundowner drinks.

Interiors: Light, Space, and Craftsmanship

Step inside, and the Princess DNA is unmistakable. Panoramic windows flood the saloon with natural light, creating a seamless connection between indoors and out. A U-shaped sofa with a convertible coffee/dining table sits opposite an additional sofa, making this an inviting hub for entertaining or unwinding at anchor.

The aft galley is ideally positioned between cockpit and saloon, reinforcing the F58’s sociable layout. Modern yet timeless finishes run throughout, with Princess’s renowned craftsmanship on full display.

On the lower deck, accommodation is generous and flexible:

A full-beam owner’s stateroom with breakfast area, walk-in wardrobe, and a superyacht-style ensuite.

A VIP forward cabin for guests.

A twin to starboard, which converts into a double if required.

An optional aft crew cabin with ensuite completes the accommodation, ensuring practicality for longer passages or professional operation.

Sustainability Meets Luxury

Princess’s introduction of the battery-powered hotel services option on the F58 is a notable milestone. Owners can enjoy silent, emission-free operation of air conditioning, refrigeration, lighting, and other amenities while at anchor – combining environmental responsibility with absolute comfort.

This move positions Princess at the forefront of the sustainable luxury yacht market, responding to growing demand for greener yachting without compromising performance or style.

Looking Ahead

The Princess F58 is already generating excitement among buyers, dealers, and enthusiasts. With her sleek profile, outstanding specification, and thoughtful innovations, she fills an important niche in the Princess lineup – offering more space and luxury than the F55, while remaining more accessible and manageable than the flagship F65.

Her debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2025 was a defining moment for the shipyard, as the global yachting community gathers to see what promises to be one of the standout premieres of the season.

As Princess Yachts puts it, the F58 is “a yacht without compromise” – and from her lines, features, and performance promises, it’s hard to argue otherwise.
