Description

Maltese Falcon is one of the world’s most iconic and innovative sailing superyachts. Built by Perini Navi and launched in 2006, she is instantly recognisable thanks to her revolutionary DynaRig sailing system, featuring three large freestanding rotating carbon-fibre masts and 15 sails, with a total sail area of approximately 2,400 square metres. At 88 metres in length, Maltese Falcon combines sailing performance, advanced technology and a high level of comfort. Her interiors, designed by Ken Freivokh Design, feature generous spaces and a spectacular three-deck atrium crossed by the main mast. Following a major refit completed in 2023, the yacht offers refreshed interiors, upgraded technology and enhanced wellness and entertainment areas.

Maltese Falcon can accommodate up to 12 guests in 6 cabins, including a full-beam owner’s suite and a VIP suite, supported by a crew of 19. Among her most distinctive features are an open-air cinema with projections onto the sails, a fitness centre, massage room, extensive outdoor spaces and a wide selection of water toys. Today, Maltese Falcon is part of the exclusive Jumeirah Privé collection, bringing Jumeirah’s hospitality standards and guest experience into the world of luxury yachting.
