The yatch above also known as the Sailing Yatch A
is supposed to be the largest sailing vessel to ever take to the seas after it
underwent its first official sailing test. It's worth £330million and belongs
to a Russian billionaire.
It was seen sailing for the first time in
Strande, nearby Kiel, northern Germany, its so massive and you can tell by
comparing it to other nearby sailing boats. At eight-decks and with masts that
are nearly 330ft tall, it eclipses the height of London's Elizabeth Tower,
which houses the Great Bell known as Big Ben, and has its own underwater lounge
surrounded by thick glass.
It
also boasts of a digital control system that has a touch sensitive sheet
of black glass, allowing the crew to raise and lower the sails and
anchor with the swipe of their fingers. Talk about technology!
