Perini Navy may have created the largest yacht of all time. Created for multi-millionaires, the yacht Maltese Falcon has been recently sold for $ 100 million. This boat uses the innovative sailing system DynaRig. It consists of three constantly rotating masts, which hold 15 sails. The maximum speed of the boat is of about 21 knots. Maltese Falcon is able to cross the Atlantic in just 10 days!
so much high tech and wind sailing is a moot point in my opinion. either work ur ass on the deck pulling ropes and shit or sit inside and hit the auto pilot button.
21kts is fast, but the new record is 47kts with a crossing time of 3 days 15 hours by Banque Populaire V last month. See the article at http://yachtpals.com/sailing-record-bp5-4194
