Princess Jean is the highly desirable 4-cabin version, offering exceptional interior volume for family cruising, liveaboard ownership, or charter-style accommodation.
Previously operating within a Phuket charter fleet, the yacht was purchased by her current owners in 2025, who have since enjoyed cruising aboard her in Thailand and are now upgrading to a larger yacht.

A quality tender package that significantly enhances the yacht’s practicality for anchoring and island access.
Recent Maintenance & Improvements
Since purchasing the yacht, the current owners have invested in a range of maintenance and improvement works.
Recent works include:
- Antifouling and hull polishing
- Hull stripe repainting
- Gelcoat repairs
- Window resealing works
- Bilge pump system upgrades
- Gas detector system installation
- Fuel gauge and sensor replacement

These upgrades and maintenance items provide the next owner with a solid foundation for continued cruising and ownership.
Structural Condition & Ownership Perspective
A pre-purchase marine survey commissioned by the current owners in 2025 reported:
- Dry hull moisture readings with no osmosis detected
- No structural hull or keel defects identified
- Engine operational during sea trial
As expected for a yacht with previous charter usage, some cosmetic wear and age-related maintenance items remain present in certain areas. However, Princess Jean represents an honest and capable offshore cruising yacht offering excellent value for buyers seeking a spacious cruising platform already located in Thailand.
