Maltese falcon yacht youtuve full#
A privileged few guests will ever be fortunate enough to experience the Maltese Falcon under full sail. Weighing in at an unbelievable 1110 tons, Maltese Falcon soon overhauled Phaedo and the rest of the fleet in today’s start, achieving a boat speed of over 14 knots.The iconic luxury sailing yacht MALTESE FALCON is a massive 88-meter mega yacht built by the Italian Perini Navi Yachts and fully refitted in 2023. Pulling the trigger, Phaedo accelerated away from the opposition, but not for long.

At first they were caught in the enormous wind shadow of their leviathan nemesis, but as Phaedo came out of the wind hole, gasping for air, the crew onboard hauled in the sheets. Phaedo, however, was far more exuberant and timed the approach to perfection, coming up under Maltese Falcon. It was a full five minutes before the three rotating rigs, each weighing 30 tons, completed their revolutions and Maltese Falcon heeled over bound for the start of the Transatlantic Race 2011. However, the spectacle of the Art Deco giant, Maltese Falcon, dominated the proceedings, announcing its intentions with a bone-rattling blast of colossal air-horns to warn spectator yachts that they were about to tack for the line. Phaedo is one of the world’s most head-turning maritime creations and the carbon fibre, Lamborghini-orange catamaran has become one of the most well-known yachts on the regatta circuit. As the magnificent 298’ Maltese Falcon unfurled acres of canvas and entered the starting area, the Gunboat 66, Phaedo, owned by Lloyd Thornburg (St. While the first start of the day produced some high drama, the start for the two yachts in the Open Class was just as extraordinary.

I must have been somewhere in outer space.

I'm a wee bit late reporting this news, as somehow I was totally unaware of it :?. Once this rig had been optimised it was transferred to a small sailing boat to allow sail trials to be carried outĬ) a one 40th scale sailing model was used to investigate manoeuvrability under sailĭ) a one sixth scale structural model of the mast built and tested to validate the laminate and the structural performance of the mast section under extreme loads

In addition to determining the rig coefficients, its performance was compared to similar sized yachtsī) a one sixth scale operational model of a single panel was developed to investigate the geometry details, the mechanical sail handling systems, and Sail shapes.

I remember seeing one photo of that vessel, but I'm unable to relocate it.can I get some HELP please.thanks.Ī) extensive wind tunnel testing was carried out at the Wolfson Unit in Southampton. One was a wind tunnel model, and another was a 1/6 scale model of a single panel of the rig that was then placed on a small sailing vessel for testing. There were several scale models utilized in the development of the Maltese Falcon.
