EXPERIENCE

EXPERIENCE is a 30.12-metre planing motor yacht built by Princess in 2013 to the Princess 98 Motor Yacht model, with a notable refit completed in 2023. Her exterior was styled by Bernard Olesinski, whose work with Princess has long been characterised by dynamic, forward-oriented lines, while the interior reflects Princess's in-house approach to contemporary fitted spaces. She is constructed in GRP and operates at a cruise speed of 20 knots, reaching a maximum of 24 knots.

EXPERIENCE accommodates 4 guests across 5 cabins, making her a vessel calibrated for a small party — couples, a family unit, or close companions seeking exclusivity rather than scale. She is available for charter in Croatia, Montenegro, and the broader Mediterranean. Those seeking large group capacity, extended ocean passages, or a full-time professional crew contingent will find her better suited to private ownership or small-party charters. Her compact profile is an asset in the Adriatic, where marina berths and anchorages reward vessels of moderate beam and length.

The 2023 refit keeps her systems and presentation current a decade on from her build, which is pertinent for a GRP planing hull where interior finish and mechanical components benefit from periodic renewal. The Princess 98 platform is a proven design at this size, offering a balance between performance and interior volume that has made it a consistent presence in the Mediterranean charter market. The planing hull delivers genuine responsiveness in coastal conditions.

Onboard amenities are focused on essentials: air conditioning throughout, a sun deck, and Wi-Fi connectivity. The water toys inventory includes a jet-ski, three Seabobs, an electric surfboard, water-skis, paddleboards, towable toys, and snorkelling equipment — a reasonable provision for a 30-metre vessel operating in the warm, clear waters of Croatia and the Adriatic. The overall experience is one of well-appointed simplicity rather than resort-scale programming.

The provisional rating is based on available public data, reflecting acceptable standards across safety documentation, maintenance records, and operational protocols.
