1989 Princess 35 | 35ft

Overview

The Princess 35 is one of Bernard Olesinski’s most respected designs, pairing classic British styling with strong seakeeping and performance. Built in Plymouth by Marine Projects (now Princess Yachts), the Princess 35 quickly earned a reputation for quality construction, practical accommodation, and confidence-inspiring handling.

Katy Em is a superbly presented 1989 example, fully surveyed in November 2024 with every recommendation completed, and extensively upgraded between 2024 and 2025. Powered by the largest engine option, twin Cummins 250 hp diesels, she delivers a brisk 28-knot top speed with effortless and economical cruising.

Benefiting from comprehensive mechanical care, new electrics, a fully refreshed interior, upgraded safety gear, and UK Part 1 registration, this Princess 35 is genuinely turn-key and ready to enjoy.

Katy Em is a rare find: a Princess 35 that’s been meticulously upgraded to modern standards, mechanically verified, and cosmetically refreshed.
