Princess Mary looked awesome on the waters of Langkawi Island, as it glided towards a sunset cruise that looked promising. The 16m-long multi-hull took one year in the making at a shipyard in Lumut, Perak, and since August, she has docked at the Royal Langkawi Yacht Club and is being booked for sunset cruises, the most popular tourist cruise package on the Kedah island.

“She is custom-built to specifications and is the only catamaran with a spiral staircase,” says owner and manager, Marxus Lim. There are three air-conditioned cabins in the hulls, a main deck seating for 24, as well as a bar and buffet.
