Princess — common questions
- How much does a Princess yacht cost to run?
- Across the 1 Princess model here, annual running costs range from $957,607 to $957,607 before depreciation — averaging 10.4% of purchase price against the industry's 10% rule of thumb.
- Do Princess yachts hold their value?
- Princess models here retain an average of 56% of their value after five years. Yacht depreciation is steep across the board; semi-custom and limited-series hulls from established yards hold up considerably better than high-volume production boats.
- How many crew does a Princess need?
- Between 3 and 3 depending on the model. Crossing roughly 80 feet is where full-time crew stops being optional, and crew rapidly becomes the largest single running cost above that size.
