"Black Pearl is a 106 meter sailing yacht, built by Oceanco. The design is based on the 96 meter dynarig project byKen Freivokh. Later in the project Nuvolari Lenard became involved. But their contract was canceled and Freivokh was rehired to finish the project. Black Pearl is the first sailing yacht for Oceanco. She features a 3 mast Dynarig system. The masts are freestanding with the yards attached rigidly to the masts. To adjust the angle of the sails, the entire mast rotates in place. When fully deployed the sails have no gaps at all between them, creating a single panel to capture the wind. It is estimated to have twice the efficiency of a traditional square rig."

I had an incredible amount of fun while building this sailing yacht. This yacht looks so much more inviting than Maltese Falcon. While building, I experencied some difficulties regarding her shape: It had to be sleek and curvy. Please let me know what you think of the final product guys!


Enjoy!
