ANTHINEA

ANTHINEA — Princess, 15.40m / 51ft A 2002 Princess of just over fifteen metres, ANTHINEA belongs to that category of yacht the Riviera does particularly well: compact enough to slip into a berth anywhere between Saint-Tropez and Monaco, quick enough to make the crossing feel like nothing at all. The numbers tell you what to expect from a day aboard. She cruises at 22 knots and tops out at 26 — which means Cannes for lunch and back along the Esterel coast in the late afternoon sits comfortably within a single outing, without the day ever turning into a delivery run. Princess built her reputation on exactly this balance: seaworthy hulls that hold their line in a chop, laid out for people who actually intend to use the yacht rather than admire it alongside. She operates in French and Monegasque waters, with a crew aboard to handle the running of the yacht so that guests deal with none of it. For couples or a small group looking at the Côte d'Azur from the water — the anchorages off the Lérins islands, the run down to Cap Ferrat, an evening arrival in Monaco — ANTHINEA is a straightforward, well-judged proposition.
