2004 Princess V5818m

The newly launched V58 is the most recent expression of the Princess V-Class philosophy. At high speeds, her seakeeping has to be experienced to be appreciated. Spacious accommodation is provided by two double staterooms and one twin-bedded guest cabin. As for the saloon, it's sensational. The parquet-style floor with inset circular carpet, and stainless steel inlaid furniture, make this is an interior which demands to be seen.
