IYC: the first-ever complete walkthrough video of the legendary BLACK PEARL

Sailing Without Limits

BLACK PEARL is not a motor yacht with sails for assistance. She was conceived around a singular, revolutionary philosophy: to sail at an unprecedented scale, efficiently, elegantly, and powerfully, unlike any other vessel in the world.

At 345′ (105m), with three towering DynaRig masts rising nearly 230′ (70m) and approximately 10, 077 sqft (3,000 sqm) of sail area deployed in under eight minutes, she is one of the most technically advanced sailing yachts ever built.

In this exclusive walkthrough, Captain Chris Gartner, a 34-year sailing veteran whose career includes icons such as MALTESE FALCON and KORU, guides viewers deck by deck, revealing:

  • The 360-degree sundeck with the largest exterior cinema screen in yachting
  • Expansive aft decks with Jacuzzi and convertible swimming pool
  • A vast foredeck transformed into sunset lounge experiences under sail
  • A spectacular main salon with 8’2″ (2.5m) ceiling heights and 328′ (100m) sightlines
  • A wellness-focused night lounge featuring gym, hammam, massage suite and beach club access
  • A master suite with convertible configuration and waterline-level comfort
  • The bridge and sailing systems that allow transatlantic passages with extraordinary fuel efficiency

During a recent Atlantic crossing from Tenerife to Antigua, BLACK PEARL completed the voyage in under ten days using just 16,000 litres of fuel; a fraction of the consumption of comparable motor yachts.

A Charter Experience Unlike Any Other

BLACK PEARL is more than a superyacht. She is a platform for participation. Guests are encouraged to take the helm, learn sail operations, and experience true wind-powered navigation, all while enjoying the comfort, volume, and versatility of a 3,000 GT yacht.

With accommodation for 12 guests (up to 14 including staff), multiple entertainment zones, transformative deck configurations, and a design that seamlessly blends engineering and artistry, she offers a charter experience unmatched anywhere in the world.

A Milestone Moment for IYC

Head of Charter Management Monaco, Anna Granlund, commented, “We are incredibly proud and honored to give you an unprecedented look inside one of the most extraordinary sailing yachts ever built, representing the pinnacle of modern sailing design and engineering. Her scale, innovation, and sheer presence set her apart from anything else on the water. This full walkthrough lets you experience her like never before, offering an intimate glimpse into a yacht that redefines what it means to sail in unmatched luxury.”

This exclusive release is more than just a promotional video. It represents trust. No one has ever been granted this type of unrestricted, official access to BLACK PEARL. Under IYC’s management, we are honoured to present her in her entirety. Transparently, authentically, and with the depth she deserves.

This is not simply a walkthrough. It is the unveiling of a modern legend.
