The world has seen some incredible sailing yachts gracing our oceans, which is becoming more of a rare sighting these days as motor yachts have taken over in terms of popularity. Although there are many more (motor) superyachts cruising our waters than there are super sailing yachts, the originality and majestic nature of sailing yachts can never be lost nor forgotten. Let’s take a look at some of the most unique super sailing yachts for sale on YATCO.com.
