Opis
The 88 meter clipper Maltese Falcon is the largest private sailing yacht in the world owned by Tom Perkins and in a breeze her immense DynaRig powers her to record shattering speeds. Falcon's interior is luxurious with a rich contemporary décor, delightful to the eye and soothing to the soul. Falcon is the ideal choice for large scale entertaining while meandering between smart anchorages, or for that once in a lifetime blue water ocean passage, foaming through the crests, under a towering cloud of sail. Atlantic crossings in ten days are on offer from this extraordinary yacht!
There's never been anything like Maltese Falcon. Without her rig, you might recognize this as a Perini Navi sailing yacht, but add the three-masted DynaRig and all preconceptions go down the drain. The DynaRig concept was developed in Germany in the 1960s, as a propulsion alternative for commercial ships in the face of a looming energy crisis. When the crisis actually materialized in the early 1970s, further refinement and some testing followed, but no DynaShips were built and the idea eventually went into the archives. The 289-foot steel-hulled yacht is, at her heart, the modern incarnation of a square-rigged clipper ship. The Maltese Falcon has flexible arrangement plan that offers a quick change from owner mode to charter mode.
A masterpiece of technology and design, the Maltese Falcon is without equal. |
