The luxury sailing yachtthat sublime marriage of form and functionis plush yet sleek, indulgent yet built for speed. Thirteen of the very finest of these boats are displayed here, from lovingly restored schooners and cutters built in the early twentieth century to the new generation of hightech yachts. The author, a sailor himself, discusses each boat's history and characteristics, above and belowdecks, including her origins, racing record, and more intricate explanations about her fittings and design elements. Lush photographs show the boats under sail, as well as details like the original fireplace in the nearly centuryold, 147foot Orion; the bronze blocks on Linnet's deck, recreated from designer Nathanael Herreshoff's 1904 drawings; and the Mariette's forward cockpit, resplendent with monogrammed cushions, designed to keep passengers dry during a closehauled tack. Burnished wooden staircases leading to wellappointed cabins and orderly galleys stocked with specially inscribed silver and crockery epitomize elegance afloat.
