The giant Hemisphere will claim the title of the world`s largest sailing was built by Derecktor Shipyards (USA). With a length overall of 44.2m and a gross tonnage of just under 500, she is set to scoop the record as the world`s largest sailing catamaran. A draft of only 3m ensures ease of maneuverability and access to ports and lagoons inaccessible to monohulls of comparable size. Decks and rig are remarkably uncluttered as visible deck hardware has been minimized and the 53m high mast soars free of spreaders with all lines run internally.
Destined for the luxury charter market in tropical climates, Hemisphere boasts a spacious flybridge with Jacuzzi, sun pads and shaded dining along with a vast indoor/outdoor living area on the main deck. Accommodation for 12 guests is arranged in 5 comfortable suite cabins and the yacht will operate with a professional crew of 8. The price tag for a sample of this palatial floating escape: charter rates start at USD$150,000 per week excluding operating expenses.
