KAOS is a 26 metre Princess from 2019, a bright and thoroughly modern British flybridge yacht that makes the most of the clear water of the Bahamas and the Caribbean. She looks after eight guests across four cabins with a crew of three, and her appeal is the easy, open way she is laid out: generous deck spaces, a light filled interior and a quick planing hull that turns the runs between anchorages into short, simple hops. For a family or a close group of friends who want a current, well crewed yacht that feels relaxed and sociable from the first morning, she is an immediate and comfortable choice.
Her point of difference is the sense of space and light for her size. Princess builds bright, well organised yachts, and KAOS carries that into open decks and an interior that flows freely from one space to the next, wrapped in glass so the turquoise water is never far from view. She runs cleanly and quickly when the schedule asks, yet settles into a shallow, sheltered anchorage with real ease, and a crew of three looks after every part of the day, from the first swim off the stern to a long dinner under the stars. The result is a yacht that feels generous and unhurried, with the space and the attention to make a warm week on the water feel effortless.
Life in the open air centres on her flybridge and sun deck. Raised above the main deck, it is a broad, sociable space with soft seating and sun pads, a shaded helm and a jacuzzi set into the teak with an open view over the sea, the natural gathering point for a long afternoon and for sundowners as the light drops over the bay. Forward, the foredeck gives a private run of sun pads away from the party, a calm place to watch the coast slip past, while the aft deck and the wide bathing platform at the stern open the yacht to the water for swimming and the tender and toys. There is room here for the whole group to find its own corner, with the warm water always within reach.
Inside, the mood is bright, light and contemporary, finished in pale tones with soft neutral upholstery and large windows that draw the sea close from every seat. The main salon is a single, open plan living space that runs along the main deck, a comfortable lounge with deep sofas forward flowing aft into an elegant dining area and a bar, so the whole party can gather in one bright, sociable room that opens to the deck. The clean, modern finish and the generous glass give the salon an airy, relaxed feel, a calm interior that reads as one continuous space and carries the light and the sea right through the heart of the yacht.
Accommodation is arranged over four cabins for eight guests, set below the main deck where the motion is gentlest. The master suite takes a generous, private position with a wide bed, pale joinery and its own bathroom, while a run of further guest cabins, each quiet and comfortable with their own facilities, look after the rest of the party. It is an intimate, flexible plan built for a family or a close group of friends, every cabin finished to the same bright, modern standard. Quick, light and attentively crewed, KAOS is a relaxed and genuinely modern way to charter the Bahamas and the Caribbean with the whole party kept close.
