OnBoard Magazine - Issue XIII - 2021 Season

The flybridge extends aft to provide a seating area with a teak dining table which complements an L-shaped-settee forward to port, adjacent the upper helm station. The flybridge also features a console that conceals a sink, electric grill and chilled compartment. Another grill and sink area are hidden beneath a hydraulic lift-assisted hatch aft of the cockpit seating that is accessed from the swim platform. Combine these features with the full galley on the main deck and you have three unique spots for food preparation across two levels. Dining areas also come in threes: one open air on the flybridge, one shaded in the cockpit and one climate controlled adjacent to the lower helm. An example of the tremendous use of space for a 45-foot boat. Guests can stretch out on the bow sun pad with reclining back rests and cup holders, or retreat from the sun to the spacious cockpit dinette or main deck seating areas. With so many spots to relax and retreat aboard the F45, owners and guests should never experience the feeling of being over- crowded. The twin Volvo Penta IPS600 engines make maneuvering the F45 in close quarters a low-anxiety experience. Meyers points out it is the pod drives that allow the engines to be mounted farther aft which has aided in creating the large spaces of the interior, including the full beam master. Engineering ingenuity has helped the F45 feature luxurious accommodations and impressive space in the entertaining areas without sacrificing comfort or wavering from Princess Yachts’ world-renowned fit and finish. Her full-length hull windows and sweeping lines, from the bow to the upper helm and aft to the massive flybridge deck and cockpit overhang, make the F45 look sleek and stunning at speed or rest. The F45 is proof positive that upgrading to a Princess Yacht is an experience unmatched by competing motoryacht brands, and the Bluewater team looks forward to introducing you to the exceptional fit, finish and build quality of these yachts. 2021 EVENT CALENDAR Viking VIP Winter Preview Riviera Beach, FL Mid-Shore Electronics Open House Cambridge, MD Palm Beach International Boat Show West Palm Beach, FL Viking Key West Challenge Key West, FL Bay Bridge Boat Show Stevensville, MD South Annapolis Open House South Annapolis Yacht Centre, Annapolis, MD Hampton Spring Dock Walk Bluewater Yachting Center, Hampton, VA Hatteras Village Offshore Open Hatteras, NC Crystal Coast Boat Show Morehead City, NC Bluewater Regulator Rally Smithfield, VA Keli Wagner Lady Angler Tournament Morehead City, NC Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament Morehead City, NC Bluewater Regulator Rally Annapolis, MD Virginia Beach Tuna Tournament Virginia Beach, VA Hatteras Marlin Club Release Tournament Hatteras Village, NC Ocean City Tuna Tournament Ocean City, MD Big Rock Kids Billfish Tournament Morehead City, NC NCDU Band the Billfish Tournament Morehead City, NC 28 JAN 5 MAR 25 MAR 7 APR 15 APR 24 APR 1 MAY 11 MAY 15 MAY 6 JUN 11 JUN 11 JUN 12 JUN 23 JUN 27 JUN 9 JUL White Marlin Open Ocean City, MD Pirate’s Cove/Alice Kelly Tournaments Manteo, NC Wine, Women & Fishing Tournament Virginia Beach, VA Virginia Beach Billfish Tournament Virginia Beach, VA Oriental Boat Show Oriental, NC TrawlerFest - Harbor East Baltimore, MD Wilmington Boat Show Wilmington, NC United States Powerboat Show Annapolis, MD Ft.
