Record Year Motor Yacht
About Record Year
Chartering before buying is not always possible. With Record Year it is: Boatcrowd already runs her in the charter fleet between the Bahamas and the USA, and the same yacht, lying in Jupiter, is now offered for sale. Princess built her in 2021, an 85-foot flybridge motor yacht with four cabins for eight guests.
Build and provenance
Record Year is a Princess Y85, a monohull motor yacht with a fibreglass hull and a 6.3-metre beam. She is professionally managed by a full-time captain, with servicing kept current throughout.
Layout and accommodation
Four cabins and five heads sleep eight guests, with three crew aboard to run her. The salon is finished in walnut cabinetry behind wide windows, and a foredeck lounge and an aft cockpit add two further places to sit outside besides the flybridge.
Performance and engineering
Twin 1,900 hp MAN V12 engines give Record Year a 25-knot cruise and 34 knots at full throttle, enough for a quick run between islands rather than a slow one. Zero-speed fin stabilisers hold her still at anchor, hydraulic bow and stern thrusters and a wireless controller make her easy to berth short-handed, and twin Kohler generators, a Starlink Gen 6 connection and a watermaker support extended time aboard away from a marina.
On deck and at anchor
The flybridge is her main deck space, set beneath a hardtop with an opening louvre section, so shade becomes sun at the turn of a switch, a deck built for entertaining above the water.
Where she lies and how to see her
Record Year lies in Jupiter, USA. We arrange every viewing ourselves and are there for it, and once an offer is accepted we bring in the surveyor and set the sea trial. Because she already charters through Boatcrowd out of Nassau, a buyer weighing the purchase can book a week aboard first: her charter page carries the calendar and the rates, this page does not.

She is in our charter fleet. A week aboard before you decide is the surest sea trial there is, and we arrange it as part of the purchase conversation.
Buying Costs
- Survey
- A buyer normally commissions a condition survey, and a sea trial, once an offer is accepted and before the sale becomes unconditional. The cost depends on her size and on where she is lifted, and it is the buyer who appoints the surveyor.
- Registration and flag
- She will be registered on a flag of the buyer's choosing, which carries its own fees and its own survey and crew requirements. Where the yacht is owned through a company, the shares rather than the vessel may change hands, which changes what is payable.
- VAT and import
- Whether VAT is due, and where, depends on the yacht's current status, her flag, the buyer's residency and where she is delivered. Where the seller has stated her VAT status, it is shown with the asking price on her page, and it is confirmed in writing before an offer is made.
- Running costs
- Crew, berthing, insurance, class and annual maintenance continue from the day she is yours. A yacht that is also chartered earns against them, and we will set out what her season has actually returned before you commit.
Estimated running costs for a yacht of her size are set out on the size page: What a yacht of 24 to 30 m costs to run.
