While her, the Maltese Falcon will participate in the SFYC Leukemia Cup Regatta ( www.leukemia-ly... )on Oct 4&5th before she heads south for the winter in the Caribbean.

We sailed along with Maltese Falcon in our 40 foot Cross trimaran in SF Bay. She is truly a majestic vessel. We sailed from Seattle to Nova Scotia.

The Maltese Falcon is a rare yacht that is the Nirvana of the Turkish shipbuilding industry. This yacht reflects the quality of the Turkish construction industry, which is expressed as a work of art. Turkey also makes LNG, CNG and electric ships and yachts, which are among the firsts in the world. With excellent engineering and technical knowledge. Viewers can enjoy.

Italian designed hull, Dutch naval architecture for the conversion.

Didn't they try to deliver it with some portholes underwater?

I was talking about that boat last night to a friend. remember seeing that thing docked by the big anchor statue. Craziest boat I’ve ever seen

This fine mega yacht changed owners recently, and it is reported that the yacht finally sold to Elena Ambrosiadou for the tidy sum of 120 million US dollars - a real bargain if you consider Tom Perkins was originally asking $165 million. Ambrosiadou, who grew up in Greece, is best known for setting up one of the most successful hedge funds in the world, and was Britain’s best paid female executive before moving her company Ikos to Cyprus in 2006.

The yacht's 25,791 square feet (2,400 square meters) of sails are set between the yards in such a way that when deployed there are no gaps to the sail plan, enabling each spar's sails to work as a single airfoil. Unlike a conventional square rigger, the yards have a built in camber of 12%, and the sails are trimmed to the wind direction by rotating the entire mast, which is operated by a sail control system on the bridge. When not deployed, the mega yacht's sails furl right into the mast itself.

I met a kid who was onboard this thing in a kayak during fleet week in San Francisco. He was an Aussie, I think he might have been the captains son.. We were both in Kayaks and I was fishing from mine and we were like right next to it. I remember getting so sea sick from all the boats charging in after the show. It was pretty scary, it was just a surge of water and yachts, I also drank a bit too...

@juncode 15 лет назад

I mean sailing up the wind. It seems a difficult thing to do with square sails perpendicular to the hull.

@kazelroy 5 лет назад

Title should be Maltese Falcon baarrrely sails under Golden Gate! They nearly took out the bridge or clipped the mast! I hope someone did the math first...

@jacktheripper1652 5 лет назад

It was too far though

@kazelroy 5 лет назад

@@jacktheripper1652 what do you mean? The boat was too far away to see how close of a call this was? Doesn't really matter when: ship clearance = bridge clearance - ship height - differences from mean sea level.

@dumon13 15 лет назад

thats why he enjoys having this ship, all those people around just dreaming with what he has, what a big ego, i wish i could have the same ego(money) that he has

@HAVENIBNOU 12 лет назад

@juncode 15 лет назад

Cool. Thanks for the info. I wonder though, how much power goes into controlling the sails? Can it be sustained by solar panels if such sail system is to be deployed on a small yacht (some 37 feet long)?

@pepps779 5 лет назад

A more recent version of the same concept, the Black Pearl, included solar capture in the sails. It supposedly made the ship much more self sufficient, to the point it can basically sail in good conditions without using any fuel.

There are way too many sailboats in there! And there were even a few anchored too, powerboats zipping around... These people are crazy... I'd never take my boat in there.
