Yes, because I have a P385 and old Princesses are ace.
No, because the Fairline Turbo 36 is in the 36 foot bracket and has a voluminous aft cabin but teenie fwd cabin and average saloon.
More info please!! Planing hull? Aft cabin? Inland or coastal use?
Love love love my Princess, but she's 25 now, and every year she needs more cutting and polishing to look good. This year I've also had to replace the flybridge screen, windlass switch, do various gel coat repairs, reseal the windscreens and a million other bits and bobs.
Old boats require more bits replacing every year to stay good and more effort to look nice, but you get more for your money, so it's horses for courses.

Or a late Fairline 40 with crew cabin.
