Le yacht est vraiment incroyable il a la forme de l'ultra moderne et le rétro à la fois! Il fais rappeler un galion espagnol au XVII ème siècle! Philippe Starck est un génie. Merci pour cette vidéo...

Imagine riding this past some sailors in the 17th century

Sailing Yacht A is a masterpiece.

Hi, I notice a significant interest in this video I published some time ago. For all of those who would like to know more about Superyacht A, here is some interesting info: Initially, she was called Project 787 during her construction at Nobiskrug shipyard in Germany. In the shipyard words, "Born from the desire of the owner to push the boundaries of engineering, and challenge the Status Quo of the industry, Sailing Yacht A is undoubtedly one of the most visionary projects Nobiskrug has ever been involved in" Delivered in the year 2017, with a LOA (length) of 142.81m, a beam (width) of 24.88m, with exterior and interior design from the french designer Philippe Starck Gerard Dykstra designed the sail plan at Dykstra Naval Architects in the Netherlands. The rig type is a three-masted schooner, and she is mentioned as a sail-assisted motor yacht. The unique masts were created by Damon Roberts, director of Magma Structures in the UK. He is the mastermind behind the most innovative masts systems in the world. The hull is made of steel, with a superstructure of Steel/GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic). Her maximum speed is estimated in 21 knots, with a cruising speed of 16 knots. Her gross tonnage (weight) is 12.558 tons. The propulsion is a two MTU 20V 4000 M73L hybrid diesel-electric system, which produces 7300kw, a total of 9790hp. Her masts tower 100 meters above sea level, and they are the tallest, freestanding composite structure in the world. Superyacht A won the World Superyacht Award 2018 About her interiors is all a mystery; she has eight decks. On the six-deck, there is a touch and go helipad. We know she has a large swimming pool in her main deck. We also hear that she has an underwater observation pod. In her mainmast, I also notice a crystal elevator that can go all the way up to the crow's nest of the mast for a unique observation 100m over the ocean. I also hear that she carries a crew of around 54. Ok, that is all I know, and it is great she is still a mystery, so let your imagination fly. With unlimited resources, what would you build?

Sailing A is truly beautiful

Thanks for posting, I’ve never seen it docked with mere mortal surroundings for scale. Truly awesome.

Thank you for posting this superb video of S/Y A. She is enormous and magnificent. Regards.

Amazing. Not even a ripple in the body work. Very skilled craftsman. Thank you Phillippe Starck and thank You, for making the video!!

it is like a work of art. I too thought "oh it has no glass then I saw the camaflauge windows. All I can say is that I would hate to see one of those sails fail. Nothing about this ship would be cheap. The hull looks seamless and the color is beautiful.

It's funny how under the numerous videos about this "yacht" (ship more like) either the bulk of the comments either love it or hate it. Like, under one video everyone likes it and another video everyone thinks it's ugly. Just shows how easily people are swayed by others opinions. Psycology aside, this is certainly an imposing vessel. That initial shot of the enormous bow is something to behold. One can't help but think that some people just have too much money. I'm not jealous, much....

A piece of art built for the owners to the utmost specs. Not a yacht to be shared with many like most yachts, but focus on the life of the small family of three. Beautiful and most amazing interior if you had the pleasure of seeing it. ;-)

You people complaining are haters sitting at home in your crappy house. This guy is actually doing something traveling the world.

Crazy the life some people live.

What a world we live in.

Thanks for sharing.... It is one of the most horrendous looking yachts.

I think 60 minutes did an interview with the owner on this boat. I think it's the largest sail boat in the world with all motorized sails.

I thing this is beautiful design and absolutely out of the box yacht design, the line so brave and sharp, love it !

Perfect for Jack Sparrow 🏴‍☠️

Thanks for this video. I had seen a picture of A in venise but wanted to see more of this. Thx

That is some boat! I couldn’t imagine having such a thing!

I have seen this many times during construction and testing but I never saw it close enough to see the many flush hidden portholes. I always thought it must be like a cave with no views except at the top -now I know better. I am amazed that they just use fenders like I do. This seems like a monstrous waste of money until you consider how much it would cost to have such a huge luxury home in many locations in ports around the world. If you rent you still have to move a large support staff and adapt to each location. This is actually sensible for a billionaire.

"I believe I'll dock your country's GDP right here. Ciao"

thats my yacht dude, i worked hard at mcdonalds for this one .

I had seasickness with your movie, but a nice one, this

worth 450 million dollars bought by a billionaire thats worth 14 billion dollars. this is like having a net worth of 1.5 million dollars and driving a 50k car around. dont worry guys someone who buys this probably makes 3X or 4X the amount per year. they wont have a problem paying for the expenses.

Love that someone has the guts to do something different.

tender with a pop-up roof? awesome! James Bond style.

truly incredible as a design and as a piece of art. As a yacht absolutely annoying.

This is insane!! Thanks for sharing!

Crazy. What way to come to Venice. I had to take the train. Bet you that have submarine onboard. All the closed ports.

That looks so unreal :D Very nice!

Floating Art 🖼

That Yacht is currently anchored off the coast of Antibes, France (Sept 11th 2020). It can be seen on the approach into Nice airport. It’s impressive from several thousand feet up!

I couldn’t afford a seat cushion from the tender.

That’s not a yacht... that’s a frickin’ ocean liner

It's a weird ass looking boat with its' Spanish Galleon meets Star Cruiser design, BUT the interior (what incredibly few shots of it there are) is unbelievable.

perfect bond villain yacht

It pays to be good friends with Putin.

Fun fact : there seems to be a room in the top of the center mast

Lo vidi entrare. In bocca di porto mentre pescavo 😄una roba spaziale !!!!!

Good for whom ever owns it. They should use it in good health.

Whaaat? Stairs? No escalators? Ridicolous.....pfff

wonderful yacht.

😳Futuristic or what!

Great video,keep it up!

Just think if this is someone’s boat imagine what their house looks like

Never thought such a construction for a boat exists... looks like an alien boat...

Gloomy and depressing. The good part of our age is a renewed interest in innovation, education and technology but aesthetically we are a disaster: clothing, cars, movies, architecture, interior design, yachts; all are just depressing and bleak. This boat is about the grimmest of any pleasure boat I have seen. Oh for Mr Morgan's yacht.

Looks unreal !

Love the futuristic look to it.

Why does it have a union Jack flag when the owner is russian!?

This is the yacht. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_(sailing_yacht)

I like the tender a lot more than the yacht.

Incredibile, very beautiful

A better paintjob than multi billion dollar navy ships!

Didn't realise the water was that deep it could accommodate the keel on this monster.

Wow perfect

Superb hull finish, paint or gel coat? Reminds me of seeing the Royal Yacht Britannia in the Thames many years ago

For people in the comments saying it is like a cruise ship: If you go after the passender code certification it strictly speaking *is* a commerce ship, a crusader Even out of the width of 25 meters you could create a sailing yacht lol

“Woah. Must be Burt Reynolds or something.”

The owner must have a huge family to need such a large boat.

Im sure the room's in this Boat are gimbaled ;-)

Thank you Mr. Ferrero, I personally would have named it " Mr. N E M O "

Beautiful. Owned by a kleptocrat oligarch no doubt.

Why? Big ego? Enough money to feed a small Nation for a while or to educate kids or provide clean water to millions. No, only for one super rich 0.001 percenter to enjoy a life of luxury he/she could have enjoyed at a fraction of the cost. That my friends is what is wrong with todays world.

Nice concept, looks a bit like a nuclear war survival ark.

BRITISH FLAGGED ! ! ! ! 🤟🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

I would like to see drone footage of it under sail.

Dear lord that sucker is the size of a destroyer! The running costs on that must be enormous! Must have a crew of like 20! talking like 2 million a year in salaries alone, Plus operating costs of like 5 million a year. How much did docking fees cost? Only so many safe ports in the world you can go.

The nautilus

Captain Nemo upgraded the Natalus last time he was in Venice

Jules Verne.. does it dive? whats inside... tennis courts?bowling ally?

Imagine saying that I own this yacht

Looks perfect for a supervillain

The name is A is long 148 mt the owen is a russian oligarc , it's the world's largest sailing yacht Melnichenko the name of billionair

Did not see an anchor or where the anchor might be hidden! A massive boat like this without an anchor?

Thats some James Bond villain shit

Funny how that little boat is more expensive than most people can afford too. It also has a pretty sick design, and for sure aint affordable🤣

Lovely❤😍

I was told by someone in the industry that the owner of the super yacht was called upon, and asked if they could use the yacht for a backdrop for the movie MI#? w/ Tom Cruise. Actually Tom Cruise is on a buiggie board 🛹 slicing down the side of the (left side) of the yacht . It's shows him looking up at the yaçht... I wonder if Tom Cruise was inside there in that day???

Six digits just to polish this mountain

I saw it where it was built in Kiel

I don't understand how some people can be that rich and I can barely afford bills and I work my ass off. It's a beautiful boat but it's maddening in a way.

amazing I’m guessing that actually is a decomishioned Navy Ship they turned into a Mega Yacht pretty cool what a lot of money can do here is another interesting thing if it is converted to private and used for Pleasure the owner doesn’t need any special Certifications or liscense to Captain it , although sometimes insurance companies may have their own requirements since that would be a high replacement cost and could easily do a great amount of damage to docks and other vessels

Based on the flag and insignia, that belongs to the royal family in Britain, although, the royal family crest was not present, it means they were not onboard.

That the S/Y A (= Sailing Yacht), not Superyacht :D

Sailing Yacht A Cost/Value: US$ 600 million

looks like they have lower balconies too...

Why so shaky? What's wrong?

I'm trying to workout how they get the ropes to dockside from those tiny portholes?

Isn't that Sailing Yacht A?

Superyacht A is motorized not a sailing yacht

Absolutely hideous.

who is the owner of this yacht?

Sickening.

The Bahamas is not Miami 🤦🏽‍♂️

I’m fine with my Sun Fish.

It’s very Bond villainesque.

looks like the Owner is afarid of the sea, no walk around is possible its like a Castel on the Water and looks like a Car Transporter withe nicer Color on it ...

How many Billions does it take to buy Taste if you don’t get it in mommys tummy ? .... donno but this buffoon could not buy it .... this is design they came up with for the largest sailing super duper yacht ..... sweet lord .... stainless steel salt shaker .... where is this world going guys ....
