And an all new IPS product at that, a 550hp block mated to Volvo's revolutionary pod-drive transmission.\r\n\r\nJoystick manoeuvrability aside, the 49 promises a top speed of 35 knots and agile handling, as the video below shows.\r\n\r\nhttp:\/\/link.brightcove.com\/services\/player\/?bctid=4899566394001\r\n\r\nOn board there is a galley-aft layout with a couple of steps up to a bright and sociable dinette with a stylish twin helm to starboard.\r\n\r\nBelow decks the location of the motors towards the stern of the boat leaves space forward for a full-beam master ensuite, an ensuite VIP with scissor-action berths and a perfectly spacious bunk bed cabin.\r\n\r\nSee our gallery of the Princess 49 below.","excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The British Motor Yacht Show will see the worldwide debuts of the Sunseeker 95 Yacht and Princess 49<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":407,"featured_media":52620,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"gallery","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3073,13],"tags":[],"review_manufacturer":[],"acf":[],"introduction":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mby.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52613"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mby.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mby.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mby.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/407"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mby.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=52613"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/www.mby.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52613\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":134371,"href":"https:\/\/www.mby.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52613\/revisions\/134371"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mby.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/52620"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mby.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=52613"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mby.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=52613"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mby.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=52613"},{"taxonomy":"review_manufacturer","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mby.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review_manufacturer?post=52613"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
