The magnificent Maltese Falcon, first covered by InsideLux in 2009, is one of the world’s most recognised private yachts.   At full mast, the yacht can cross the Atlantic in an impressive 10 days – and all of that at the helm of absolute luxury.   The yacht is touring the Mediterranean at $500,000 per week.  Not bad when you compare it to super yachts in its category.

The Maltese Falcon, one of the world’s most impressive private yachts was sold less than a month ago.  First published on InsideLux as being for sale in June, it took less than two months to find a buyer.  Her new owner sailed her to the Perini Navi Cup USA, where she won the gold medal.  Generating top speeds in excess of 21 knots, the 3-mast yacht got the first place position in a time of 1 hour and 37 minutes.
