Comments: Virtually all the total 141 Allied Princesses built were unique, with much input during the build from the owner. They were blue water boats with several having completed circumnavigations. In the 1979 year, beginning with Hull # 127, Allied Princesses were built with a new interior which replaced the Formica (faux wood) bulkheads and trim with Teak wood. This upgrade was intended to upscale the interior from strictly utilitarian to a more “Corinthian” yacht design to differentiate from competing mass-produced boats of lesser blue water pedigree. Often the competition's focus on interior amenities was to the detriment of sailing qualities.
