Luxury
life at the sea.
A Yacht is a recreational
boat. It designates two rather different classes of watercraft,
sailing and power yachts. Yachts are differentiated from
working ships mainly by their leisure purpose. It was
not until the ascendancy of the steamboat and other types
of powerboat that sailing vessels in general came to be
perceived as luxury items. However, since the level of
luxury on larger yachts has seen an increasing trend,
the use of the word yacht to mean any sailing vessel has
been diminishing and is more and more limited to racing
yachts or cruising yachts.
Yacht lengths generally start at 32·35 feet (10·11
m) and go up to hundreds of feet. A mega yacht generally
refers to any yacht (sail or power) above 100' or 34 m
and a super yacht generally refers to any yacht over 200'
or 70 m. This size is small in relation to typical cruise
liners and oil tankers... |
