Dreams<br />
and Visions.<br />
The era of the great sailing yachts is the stuff of<br />
legend. The object of nostalgia and the subject<br />
of dreams, literature, art and films. Millions<br />
have dreamt the dream, felt the nostalgia and<br />
the empathy, been enthralled and excited. By<br />
the conquerors of the age of empires. By windjammers,<br />
wily seadogs and privateers. By crowned<br />
heads and glamorous celebrities on sea cruises.<br />
By glittering boat parties, intoxicating<br />
romances and fascinated onlookers.<br />
The re-awakened interest in the "classics of the sea" is<br />
connected with new conceptions of individuality and selfesteem.<br />
It was triggered to a large <strong>de</strong>gree by the global<br />
success of the Americas Cup in New Zealand. It is based<br />
primarily on the appeal and diversity of the new yacht<br />
<strong>de</strong>signs. And it is growing with the <strong>de</strong>velopment of new<br />
ways of improving power, performance, comfort<br />
and safety drawn from the resources of<br />
engine technology. It is that above<br />
all which makes sailing yachts into<br />
mega-yachts.
