This July, Princess Yachts owners from across the country gathered for a spectacular long weekend in one of America’s most historic and vibrant cities—Boston—for the 2025 Princess Summer Owners Holiday. From culinary delights and cultural tours to an unforgettable evening at Fenway Park, the event was a true celebration of yachting, community, and summer fun.
Setting the Scene: Charlestown Marina Welcome
The festivities began on Thursday, July 24th, as owners cruised into the scenic Charlestown Marina, just steps from Boston’s Freedom Trail and historic landmarks. Upon arrival, guests were greeted with a signature Boston welcome cocktail and the warm hospitality of the Princess Yachts team. Attendees checked in at the Floating Barge to collect their gift bags and event shirts before heading off to settle into the marina or the nearby Residence Inn on Tudor Wharf.
That evening, the Clarke Living Showroom—an elegant culinary destination—hosted a stunning welcome reception. Guests mingled over open bars and tasting stations while enjoying chef demonstrations in a space known as New England’s premier kitchen showcase. Special thanks to Princess Owners Tom and Jeannie Clarke for opening their doors and helping to kick off the weekend in style.
A Walk Through History & an Evening with "Old Ironsides"
Friday brought an immersive dive into Boston's revolutionary past with a professionally guided Freedom Trail tour led by Hub Town Tours. Guests explored all sixteen official landmarks on the trail, from Boston Common to Copp's Hill Terrace, gaining a deeper appreciation for the city’s role in American history.
Later that day, a cocktail reception at the USS Constitution's Commandant’s House offered breathtaking harbor views and private access to the world’s oldest commissioned naval vessel still afloat. Guests stepped aboard “Old Ironsides” for a unique evening exploring maritime history, paired with cocktails and camaraderie.
Saturday Fun: From Historic Streets to Friendly Competition
Saturday began with another guided tour—this time, a closer look at the Charlestown neighborhood and its storied past. Then, the competitive spirit came alive during the inaugural Boston Bean Bag Bowl, a high-energy cornhole tournament hosted right at the marina. Teams of all ages brought their A-game for some light-hearted rivalry and plenty of laughs.

That night, the New England Aquarium played host to an elegant dinner and awards ceremony. With the Boston skyline as the backdrop, guests enjoyed a lavish surf & turf buffet, live music, and interactive experiences including stingray and shark encounters and an up-close look at divers swimming through the Giant Ocean Tank. It was an evening of marine magic and memories made on the dance floor.
Sunday at Fenway: A Grand Finale
The weekend culminated with a bucket-list experience: a VIP evening at historic Fenway Park as the Red Sox faced off against the L.A. Dodgers. From private access to the 521 Overlook to a four-hour open bar and classic New England fare, Princess guests were treated to the ultimate baseball experience—complete with views of the Green Monster and the energy of a sold-out summer game. As a plus to this afternoon, the Red Sox won!
Until Next Time!
On Monday morning, guests gathered one last time for coffee and breakfast before setting out on their next adventure. The Princess team was on hand to assist with departures and ensure a smooth transition from Boston’s harbor to the open seas.
The 2025 Princess Summer Owners Holiday in Boston was more than a gathering—it was a celebration of the lifestyle, legacy, and friendships that define the Princess Yachts community. From historic tours and exclusive events to simply spending time with fellow owners, the weekend left everyone counting the days until the next Princess adventure.
