KORA is a 2023 Princess, a flybridge motor yacht of a little over twenty five metres that brings the polish of the British yard into a size a family or a group of friends can enjoy without a large crew. She carries ten guests across five cabins with a crew of three, which keeps her relaxed and informal while still delivering the finish, the layout and the sea keeping that Princess is known for. She reads as fresh and current from the deck to the cabins, a modern flybridge yacht built for easy Mediterranean cruising.
She is quick, and that shapes the way a week aboard feels. With a top speed around thirty one knots she can cover ground when the plan calls for it, reaching a further bay for lunch or beating the weather back to a sheltered harbour, then settle to an easy cruise when there is nowhere in particular to be. For a group that likes to see a stretch of coast rather than sit in one spot, that pace turns a week into a proper exploration of the islands and towns within reach.
Her outdoor spaces are well judged for her size. The sun deck up top carries seating, sunbathing and a helm with a commanding view, the natural place to gather on the run between anchorages and for drinks as the light fades. Forward, the foredeck gives a quieter lounge with sun pads to lie out away from the main flow of the day, and aft the main deck opens to a shaded cockpit with a dining setting close to the water. The walkaround side decks make moving fore and aft simple and safe.
Inside, she offers more interior living space than her length suggests. The main salon is a bright, contemporary room that moves from a comfortable lounge to an interior dining area on one level, finished in warm timber with pale upholstery and large windows that keep the sea in view. Forward and up a level, a sky lounge beside the helm gives a second, calmer interior space with the best views aboard, and a well fitted galley keeps the crew turning out proper meals through the day.
Accommodation is arranged across five cabins for ten guests, built around a full master with its own bathroom and good natural light, the quietest room aboard. A VIP cabin, a double and a twin complete the layout, each finished in the same warm, neutral style, which makes her a practical choice for a family with children as readily as for several couples travelling together. The cabins are calm and well proportioned, with their own bathrooms, so the choice of room is a matter of taste rather than rank.
A yacht like this is at her best moving in short hops between harbours and anchorages, dropping the hook for a swim at lunch and tying up somewhere lively for the evening. Her speed opens up a wider stretch of coast than a slower yacht of her size could reach in a week, and the crew of three keep the days flowing without ever crowding the guests. The open stern puts the tender and the water toys a step away whenever the mood takes you.
She is well suited to Greece and the wider East Mediterranean, cruising the islands and clear water of the Aegean at a pace that suits the day. For a family or a group of friends who want British build quality, five proper cabins and an easy turn of speed without the scale or cost of a larger hull, KORA is a crisp, comfortable and genuinely welcoming choice.
