Star Clippers claims that she is the largest "true sailing ship" built since Preussen. She is listed in the Guinness World Records book as the largest square-rigged ship in service, with 5202 square metres of sail. Her sails can be handled with a crew as small as twenty using powered controls. Inspired by the legendary Tall Ship, Preussen, the new Royal Clipper has the proud distinction of being the largest and only five-masted sailing ship built since her predecessor was launched in 1902. With a complement of 42 sails, Royal Clipper reflects the grand age of sail, but boasts state of the art navigation systems and every comfort and luxury. Royal Clipper (Wallpaper 2).

Royal Clipper offers the ultimate sea going experience, balancing the tradition of tall ship sailing with the service, amenities and accommodation of the finest modern yacht. The 134 metre long Royal Clipper carries just 228 guests in luxurious style, and offers a full 1760 square metres of open deck and three swimming pools. The 3-deck atrium funnels sunlight into the elegant dining room, with its superb cuisine and no-tie dress code. You can climb the mast to a 'crows nest', or swim from the stern marina platform. Or enjoy the spa and health club with its underwater glass portholes. On Royal Clipper 14 de-luxe suites offer the ultimate cruising comfort, with private verandah, whirlpool bath and 24-hour room service. All but 6 of the 98 cabins are outside. Their decor is tastefully traditional - burnished brass fittings and mahagony brightwork with soft natural fabrics reflecting the colours of sun, sea and sky. Star Clippers have been in discussions with shipyards to build a new five-mast vessel for the line for delivery in 2010. Expected to be the largest, most expensive sailing vessel ever constructed, the 7,400-gross-ton barque is modeled on France II, which at 5,000 gross tons was the world's largest sailing ship when it was launched in 1912. The ship will be 518 feet long (157 meters) and 61 feet at the beam (18.5 meters) with a draft of 20 feet (6 meters). The vessel will carry 37 sails for a total of 68,350 square feet (6,350 square meters) of sail surface area. The rig will extend 217 feet (65 meters) above the waterline, and the open deck area will be an 8,200 square feet (2,500 square meters). Marble lined bathroom, private safe, television with in-house video - everything is immaculately maintained. Royal Clipper (Wallpaper 2). Royal Clipper Sailing Ship images wallpaper gallery 2.
