World’s Largest #Cargo #Sailboat Completes Historic First #Atlantic Crossing
#NeolinerOrigin completed first #transatlantic voyage on 30 October despite damage to one of its #sails during the journey. The 136-m-long vessel had to rely partly on its auxiliary motor and its remaining sail after the aft sail was damaged in a storm shortly after departure... #Neoline, the company behind the project, said the damage reduced the vessel's ability to perform fully on wind power.
