Indian Princess
181'
12 guests, 15 crew
Indian Princess is
possibly one of the most recognizable and well known superyachts from the late
1980’s.
Her Jon Bannenberg design and styling give her a unique yet aesthetically
appealing profile that was substantially improved upon during her major refit
and lengthening in 1996/97 at the DML shipyard, Plymouth, England.
She has been extensively renovated and updated in 2004 by her new Owners to
enhance her excellent reputation and loyal following within the charter market
in recent years. The recent refit included the complete replacement of
carpets and soft furnishings. The color scheme is rich and fresh and provides a
vibrant complement to her light wood interior.
The stunning aft deck lounge area on the upper deck is accessed via a grand
central staircase from the main deck level. Circular seating with tables (port
& stbd), a large alfresco circular dining table with Summit teak seating for
up to 12 and a full wet bar create an excellent venue for entertaining. The
focal point of this saloon is the formal wet bar to port, with bar stools and
the antique grand piano to starboard. Forward and split level is the observation
/ games saloon with its four distinct seating areas, Plasma TV, PS2 games tables
and 180 degree panoramic view.
Following her 10ft (3m) extension in 1997, the main deck aft not only acts as
the yacht’s main entrance and reception area when moored stern-to, but is also
the working boat deck and tender store. Two versatile and articulating
passerelles (port & stbd) offer an array of options for embarking and
disembarking at the dock stern-to, side-to or even at anchor.
The tenders are launched and recovered via overboard hydraulic gantry cranes.
Two guest/staff cabins are located to port with an entrance foyer and day toilet
(stbd). Amidships to starboard is the large, marble tiled formal dining area
with a boardroom size table capable of seating 18 for dinner, or meetings. On
the aft bulkhead a plasma TV and Video conferencing facility is provided.
Opposite to port is the Owner's private office/study with a desk, sofa and full
audio/visual equipment. The Captain’s cabin and radio room/ship’s office are
forward to port and to starboard is the large pantry and well equipped galley.
Central stairs lead up to the wheelhouse and, slightly to starboard, stairs lead
down into the crew mess, crew galley and dining area – full width. There are 4
crew cabins on this level. The foredeck has its own hydraulic crane for the crew
tender and jetskis when required as well as 2 U-shaped crew seating/relaxation
areas (port & stbd).
ACCOMMODATION: The spectacular Owner's suite is a full width double cabin
with dressing room and ensuite bathroom with Jacuzzi tub and separate shower
