100 years ago: YACHT 6/1926 – Artistic regatta prizes

- At the third Cyclades Cup, 21 superyachts sailed around Antiparos, Paros and other Cyclades islands for three days.  
- The first day of racing was abandoned due to a lull; on days two and three, there were short light-wind courses and a long Meltemi course respectively.  
- ‘Barong D’ won both Meltemi races and claimed the ‘Head of the Fleet’ trophy; the supporting programme included barbecues, excursions and dinners.

Cyclades Cup: Antiparos in the grip of superyacht regatta fever

- The 28.3-metre Wally 93 ‘Bullitt’ is a carbon-fibre maxi yacht designed for racing, created by Luca Bassani and judel/vrolijk & co.

“Bullitt”: €2 million discount on a 28-metre Wally

- Several seized oligarch yachts worldwide illustrate the legal challenges involved in sanctions against assets held through trust arrangements.

“Sailing Yacht A”: Sailing giant remains impounded

Superyachts

- Integrated dodger creates a standing height of approx. 1.85 m, improves climate and ventilation thanks to the chimney effect and can be shaded with mesh and tinting.  
- The interior is simple ex works and can be modularly converted into a pocket cruiser with galley, flexible toilet room, storage space, lighting and technology.  
- Closed water canisters without seacocks, 12-volt connections and the option of mounting flexible solar modules on the dodger increase autonomy.

Bente 25: Small cruiser with headroom

- The Saffier SE 28 Leopard is a versatile daysailer, club racer, weekender and family boat with many customisation options.  
- Compared to the SE 27 Leisure, it offers more width, higher freeboard, deeper keel, larger rig and very good sailing performance with easy single-handed operation.  
- Below deck there are berths for up to four people and a surprising amount of space; the high price is offset by the equipment, build quality and breadth of use.

- Chianti 24: trailerable 7.75 m wooden epoxy keel centreboard with double rudders, lifting keel (0.20-2.00 m) and unsinkable hull construction.

“Malizia Explorer”: Life on board Boris Herrmann’s research vessel

- Eagle 46: a sleek, classically elegant daysailer/weekender with limited interior space, focusing on style, quality and comfortable sailing.  
- Modern technology: GRP or carbon construction, T-keel, high-performance rig, electric winches, sail trim at the touch of a button, strong performance close to the wind.  
- High-quality interior fit-out with a large forward berth, but limited headroom and ventilation; high price starting at €743,750, but with extensive standard equipment.

Eagle 46: An elegant daysailer that offers an alternative to mainstream mass-market designs – put to the test

- An open-plan feel, more light and ventilation, as well as coordinated materials and design lines, aim to create a practical, consistent interior.

Catamarans | Trimarans

- Pogo RC is a 10-metre racing yacht uncompromisingly designed for IRC offshore racing with high performance potential and planing power.
- The voluminous bow, double rudder and carbon rig are striking; very fast on the beam, hard and wet in the waves on an upwind course.
- Functional but sparse below deck; high price due to high-quality technology and options such as water ballast, sail package and expensive electronics.

Pogo RC: The Breton Express for fast offshore cruising – put to the test

- The Shogun 43 is fitted with a carbon lifting keel with a 1.2 m stroke, which makes the draught variable at 1.5-2.7 m and opens up shallow areas.

- OQS will be manufacturing the Shogun yachts in Finland from September 2025; the lifting keel is optional and the 43 costs from approx. 1.14 million euros without sails.

Regatta yachts

- The ‘Nobile’ is a steel-hulled fishing lugger built in 1919, which was converted in Wolgast in 1994/95 into a gaff-rigged racing cutter with a sail area of 510 m².  
- She was built as part of a job-creation scheme to serve as a training and team-building vessel and is now operated by a support association for traditional sailing vessels.  
- On voyages such as the Hanse Sail, the simple but labour-intensive rigging requires a great deal of manual work; maintenance and repairs are carried out mainly by the crew themselves.

The “Nobile” racing cutter: traditional sailing is really hard graft here

- The Vorarlberg Museum is hosting the exhibition ‘The Atlantic Dream’, which explores Franz Plunder’s life’s work, until 6 January 2027.
- Over a weekend in June, two of Plunder’s sailing boats, the “Sowitasgoht”, will be on display at Marina Bregenz, with opportunities to speak to the owners.
- At the same time, Bregenz will host the 8mR World Championships featuring the “Elfe II” – which was refitted by Plunder – as well as the subsequent launch of the “Porcupine II”.

A classic: the Plunder boats are moored in Bregenz!

- On 20 June, during Kiel Week, the ‘Rendezvous der Klassiker’ will take place on the Kiel Fjord, featuring a regatta and a harbour show.

- The race starts at 11.30 am in front of the Düsternbrook starting house, with the course running through the entire fjord to Strander Bay and back; the start time may be subject to slight changes.

A classic: A date during Kiel Week

Classics

- Freedom Ship is planned as a one-mile-long, 30-deck-high, permanently inhabited floating city for up to 80,000 people.  
- Schopfer Associates LLC, as the lead architectural firm, will assume overall responsibility for the design; a construction timetable and location have yet to be finalised.  
- The plans include housing, infrastructure ranging from schools to a hospital, and a hybrid propulsion system with water and waste management; funding remains to be confirmed.

Freedom Ship: A floating city for 80,000 people is set to sail around the world

- AI image tools quickly visualise new hull colours, stripes and motifs, but are no substitute for a technical construction or foil plan.  
- Good initial photos, precise prompts and variant comparisons help to find suitable designs for hulls, foils and sails.  
- Paintwork is more robust, foil more flexible for complex motifs; design should suit the boat and long-term taste.

Boat design: How to redesign your own boat using AI

- At the YachtingGate shipyard, customised furniture such as desks, beach chairs and seating furniture is made from old sailing boats.
