High-profile sailboats of unique design and advanced technology have taken part in iconic regattas in their history. They arise from custom or semi-custom designs designed for yacht racing or cruising: the width of the hulls and the extent of the sails allow spectacular maneuvers in both coastal and offshore trials.
