Leilani

A flybridge built as a second living room, with dining for ten, a wet bar and shade from an electric hardtop, is what stands out about Leilani. Princess delivered the Y95 in 2024, and that same idea, volume spent on living space rather than corridors, carries through the rest of the yacht.

Build and provenance

She is a Princess Y95, a flybridge motor yacht on a monohull, delivered in 2024. She measures 29 metres, 95 feet, with a beam of 6.8 metres and a draft of two metres, shallow enough to open up anchorages a deeper hull would have to sit out.

Layout and accommodation

Ten guests sleep across five cabins. A crew of two run the boat.

Performance and engineering

Two 2,000 hp MAN V12 engines give her a 21-knot cruise and 23 knots flat out, with a hydraulic stern thruster for close-quarters work. Fin stabilisers work underway and a zero-speed system holds her steady at anchor, so an evening on the hook stays calm rather than rolling. Her tanks carry 3,500 US gallons of fuel and 475 US gallons of water, enough for real distance between fills.

On deck and at anchor

On deck, a crane for tenders, teak decking and a sun awning under the flybridge hardtop give the outdoor spaces their own reasons to use them. Below, a wine cooler, a washing machine, underfloor heating and a watermaker are the kind of systems that make her ready to live aboard rather than just cruise for the day. A Starlink connection keeps her online at anchor.

Where she lies and how to see her

Leilani lies in Phuket, Thailand. Boatcrowd sets up each viewing and comes along for it, and once an offer is accepted, a survey and sea trial follow before anything else is signed.
