The Oceanco Black Pearl was named ‘Best Sailing Yacht Overall’at the World Superyacht Awards Gala. The ship measuring 106.7-meters in length, is not only the world’s largest private sailing yacht, she also has many unique and innovative features such as a state- of –the- art Dynarig carbon masts and sailing system, single- level engine room, and a hybrid propulsion installation with a high capacity battery bank allowing for a regeneration mode when under sail.  With Exterior Design by Ken Freivokh and Nuvolari Lenard, Interior Design by Gerard Villate and Nuvolari Lenard and naval architecture by Dykstra Naval Architects/ Oceanco, Black Pearl is both stunningly beautiful and a technological tour de force.

“We are thankful to all of the team members and myriad individuals responsible for the execution of both of these yachts,” says Marcel Onkenhout, CEO of Oceanco. “Moreover, we are thankful for the trust given to us by the Owner of Black Pearl to build the extraordinary yacht that they envisioned.”
