Princess Yachts brings eight vessel fleet to Fort Lauderdale

There is a particular anticipation that accompanies the arrival of a distinguished yacht maker at one of the world’s most prestigious nautical showcases. Princess Yachts will command considerable attention this October and November, bringing an exceptionally curated collection to the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show that underscores the brand’s technical prowess and relentless refinement across its portfolio.

The X90 arrives as the centrepiece of this remarkable presentation, marking its first appearance on North American shores. This is a yacht that embodies Princess’s commitment to engineering excellence and contemporary elegance, offering a masterclass in how performance, comfort and aesthetic sophistication can converge within a single, superbly realised vessel.

Equally momentous is the world premiere of the all new C48, a bold statement that Princess is expanding its design vocabulary whilst maintaining the meticulous attention to detail that has become synonymous with the brand’s name. The introduction of the entirely new C Class represents a significant evolution, one that promises to reshape perceptions of what yacht ownership at this level might offer.

A Complete Collection

Beyond these headline debuts, Princess will showcase the full spectrum of its craft, presenting all six yacht classes under a single roof for the first time. This comprehensive display offers an unprecedented opportunity to understand the complete hierarchy of Princess’s vision, from entry level sophistication through to the pinnacle of bespoke maritime luxury. Each vessel represents a distinct proposition, yet all share the engineering rigour and refinement that define the marque.

Stepping aboard any Princess yacht is an education in how British marine engineering has evolved to meet contemporary demands. The brand brings generations of expertise to every detail, from the geometry of hull forms designed for efficient passage making to the intuitive layout of interior spaces that maximise both usability and visual consequence.

For those seeking to experience contemporary yacht design at its most assured, the Fort Lauderdale show presents an invaluable moment. The opportunity to explore two newly realised yachts whilst simultaneously apprehending the complete range of Princess’s capabilities is rarely afforded. This is a gathering that celebrates not merely luxury, but the engineering philosophy and craftsmanship that transform maritime travel into an elevated art form.

The Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show runs from 28 October through 1 November 2026.
