Plymouth luxury yacht firm sails past ‘pingdemic’ to narrow losses

The UK’s largest luxury boat builder Princess Yachts has almost halved its losses after turnover sailed past the previous year’s total, despite “significant headwinds” for production such as the Covid-19 “pingdemic”.

The Plymouth-based manufacturer, which sells yachts to a global network of independent distributors, reported revenue of £312.4m to the end of December 2021 - up from £244.4m in 2020.

Loss before tax stood at £19.2m, narrowed from £38.1m a year earlier.
