Overview
During the sun-drenched summer of 2020, PR Nautica proudly accomplished a remarkable retrofit on the stunning Princess 78Y, which involved the installation of a Seakeeper 9 system. This transformative project encompassed various significant upgrades, including the addition of an extra Seakeeper Gyro Stabiliser, a 4th Station Control, a cutting-edge KVH Satellite System, and mesmerising Underwater Lights.
The installation of the Seakeeper 9, in conjunction with the existing Seakeeper 16, heralded a significant enhancement in the vessel’s roll stability, ensuring a smooth and comfortable experience even amidst challenging sea conditions. This integration of advanced stabilisation technology underscores our commitment to providing the utmost comfort and safety for every journey undertaken on this extraordinary yacht.
Incorporating a 4th Station Control has revolutionised the docking and manoeuvring capabilities of the Princess 78Y. With this additional control station positioned strategically on both sides of the vessel, navigating tight spaces and executing precise manoeuvres has become a seamless and effortless task. The convenience and flexibility offered by this upgrade significantly enhance the captain’s ability to handle the yacht, empowering them to dock with ease and grace.
As part of the retrofit, we also introduced the cutting-edge KVH Satellite System, opening up a world of unparalleled connectivity and entertainment options for those on board. This state-of-the-art system ensures reliable and high-speed data communication, enabling seamless access to online resources, live TV, and communication platforms, even while cruising in remote waters.
To further elevate the aesthetic appeal of the Princess 78Y, we embellished the vessel with captivating Underwater Lights. These luminous accents cast a mesmerising glow, enhancing the yacht’s allure and creating an enchanting ambiance in the depths below. Whether anchored in serene bays or cruising under the moonlit sky, these underwater lights add a touch of magic and elegance to every maritime escapade.
