  • Archelon: on Board the 37 Metre Oyster Sailing Yacht
    8 images Archelon: On Board the 37 Metre Oyster Sailing Yacht 2020-07-01 BY MATTHEW SHEAHAN Step on board Archelon, the new 37 metre Oyster sailing yacht designed by Humphreys Yacht Design Ltd It is not every day that you run a superyacht down a shingle beach alongside windsurfers, kayaks and paddleboards. Stopping the traffic and closing the busy main road that runs along the Lee-on-Solent shoreline also drew plenty of attention as the 37.45-metre hull and deck were rolled on to the beach before being craned on to a waiting barge. Named after the extinct genus of turtle, Archelon is a rare beast indeed. Moving the first Oyster 1225, Archelon, from her moulding facility at HMS Daedalus to Oyster’s Southampton yard at Saxon Wharf on the south coast of the UK was a major exercise that had been meticulously planned. The level of detail that went into the operation mirrors the careful thinking that has underwritten every aspect of the 1225’s design. When Richard Hadida bought Oyster Yachts in 2018 and a new era for the yard began, the yacht was already in progress – at the vanguard of a new breed of Oyster and one of few designs that he would keep on. “The first 1225 was probably halfway through her build in Southampton and we completed it with Pendennis,” he says. “Oyster built all the bespoke cabinetry and interior joinery and under our design and guidance Pendennis fitted it.” The owner’s cabin aft benefits from plenty of light that streams in through the seascape windows in the hull and portlights in the deck.

  • The BCY 160' Sailing Trimaran
    160’ SAILING TRIMARAN The BLUE COAST 160’ Sailing Trimaran is the most extreme fusion of architecture, design, comfort, performance, economy and technology ever created in a luxury sailing yacht. It challenges the forces of nature and the rules of engineering to race across the ocean without using a drop of oil and can cruise the most exclusive harbours powered only by renewable energy. Ultra in this context means a 48 meters carbon-fibre trimaran designed and developed by the world’s leading naval architect combined with technology from Formula 1 motor racing to create a unique yacht with folding multihulls. Completely automated to ensure ease of operation and provide the ultimate levels of comfort, BCY 160’ ST harnesses the luxury and convenience of a motor yacht with the excitement and speed of a multihulls. The striking ‘avant-garde’ styling, minimum draft, extreme speed and manoeuvrability, stability under sail without the heeling of a multihulls, smart use of energy and bespoke luxury interior are unique to each single craft. The BCY 160’ ST has the power to seduce and delight everyone who sees, or sails in her. BLUE COAST YACHTS have brought together the world’s finest minds to create the ultimate sailing experience that will satisfy the desires of the most demanding yachtsmen. The BCY 160’ Sailing Trimaran is the first sailing trimaran of this size ever to be built with folding hull beams. In open water he is 23 metres across, but in harbour configuration the outer hull beams fold in to a slender 11metres. In just a few minutes almost any mooring becomes accessible but when you’re back on the ocean with the hulls extended you will enjoy the benefits of a stable platform without the heeling of a monohull.

  • Aluminum Sailing Yacht Bougainvillea 62
    CHUCK PAINE'S BERMUDA SERIES ALUMINUM SAILING YACHT BOUGAINVILLEA 62 PRINCIPAL DIMENSIONS LOA: 61' 6" LWL: 55' 9" BEAM: 15' 5" DRAFT: 6' 10" DISPLACEMENT: 55,000 lbs BALLAST: 15,000 lbs SAIL AREA: 1,422 sq ft SA/DISP: 15.73 D/L RATIO: 142 With light displacement and a short rig you could press on sail and really fly in these boats. The Bougainvillea 62 became the most popular of Kanter Yachts' Bermuda Series sailing yachts. Four of the design were built— two of which were sailed around the world. The design began as an unpainted 60 footer for a Canadian customer who aspired to sailing across the Atlantic. The boat was light, narrow and therefore fast and was fitted with waterballast. The owner loved to carry sail which he did to good effect, but he frightened his wife and the boat was soon put up for sale. Later she was bought by an American, lengthened two feet to match her sisterships, and painted. Renamed ANTHEM, she now resides in Annapolis and is highly respected and recognized there. With an efficient sailplan on slender, effectively stayed spars these boats could really fly when the wind blew. The relatively low rig and low center of gravity that resulted from low freeboard and minimal superstructure made her very stable, so reefing was rarely required. Her draft was only 6 ft. 10 inches thanks to the bulbed keel. All of the boats could be driven from their totally enclosed pilothouses without needing to don the foul weather gear. Their 5083-H116 aluminum construction provided coral resistance combined with controllable maintenance.

  • The Physics of Sailing
    The Physics of Sailing Ryan M. Wilson JILA and Department of Physics, University of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado 80309-0440, USA (Dated: February 7, 2010) We present a review of the physical phenomena that govern the motion of a sailing yacht. Motion is determined by force, and the forces on a sailing yacht depend on the interactions of the hull and keel of the yacht with the water and on the interactions of the sail or sails of the yacht with the air. We discuss these interactions from the perspective of fluid dynamics, governed ultimately by the Navier-Stokes equation, and show how forces such as lift and drag are achieved by the relative motion of a viscous fluid around a body. Additionally, we discuss phenomena that are exclusive to sailing yacht geometries. I.
