Moshe Strugano Explain Why Sailing Yacht is Better than Motor Yacht

Generally, experienced yachties will flaunt a great fondness for either motor or sail yachts. Motor yacht vs Sailing yacht has been a highly debatable topic for many years, however, for purists, it does not matter, they always believe in an amazing and memorable experience.

Often, yachtsmen have fallen into two categories such as sailors or power boaters. Those who choose the motor yacht states that they are much more fascinating and sexier than their equivalent, while sailors claim sailboats are beautiful for adventure or romance experience.

As an owner of the fastest yacht in the world i.e. Forever 32, Moshe Strugano firmly believes in a sailing yacht. Below he explains why…

Environmental Friendly

Moshe Strugano is aware of the harmful effects of yachting on the environment. In modern society, fuel pollution ranks top at the list of harmful by-products for an environment, and a major amount of this derived from the yachting business generally ends up in our oceans.

However, it is seen that sailing yacht is less accountable for this damage. For instance, a seventy-one-meter motor yacht consumes on average five hundred liters of fuel in an hour, as compared to a small sailing yacht, which consumes just 2.5 liters in an hour. That’s an unpleasant lot fewer CO2 emissions infecting the environment while you are on the cruise!

Cost-effective

As we read above, sailing yachts consumes much less fuel in comparison to motor yachts. And in case if there are good winds, you will not require it at all. Hence when opinion turns to constant affordability, sailing is certainly the more attractive choice.

Good Safety

When it comes to safety, sailing yachts wins the race. Imagine a person who is an hour away from the next port and the engine of his motor yacht fails, he will find himself in a spot of bother. However, in the same situation, a sailing yacht will take him safely into the harbor without the requirement of an engine. With the prevailing favorable conditions and experienced sailors on board, sailing yachties can cheerfully navigate any situation.

Exciting and Romantic

There is not anything rather as exciting as sitting on the deck of a sailing yacht since it glides through the water. If you are looking for an experience that will have a long-lasting memory, definitely a sailing yacht is the best choice for you.
Similarly when the sun sets on the ship and yachties have an opportunity to relax, having dropped anchor in a distant bay for the night, there is not anything pretty as loving as opening a wine bottle with our loved ones on the sailing yacht aft, the waves softly lapping at the sides of the boat just a few meters away from you.

See unimaginable beauty in isolated destinations

Because sailing yacht needs considerably less fuel, they can cover much more distances than motor yachts. Thus, sailors can easily see unimaginable beauty in isolated destinations off the beaten track.

Gain knowledge of new talent

Whilst big sailing yachts have sufficient room for a knowledgeable crew, many owners pick a yacht under canvas instead of a motor yacht as they like the dare of sailing the boat themselves. It's an excitement which once sailor experienced, and never lost. What’s more, learning new skills - at any phase of life - is highly satisfying and pleasing.

So, now you understand why Moshe Strugano always prefers sailing yachts! We’d like to hear your opinion on the motor vs sailing yacht debate.
