The Golden Horizon is due to be launched in May 2021. Built in Split to the template of a square-rigged sailing vessel called France II from the year 1913, she is the largest traditional sail ship in the world. The first cruise the world's largest traditional sail ship will undertake will see her sail around the coast and islands of Scotland and England. For the moment, the Golden Horizon is still moored in Split, and will be making her maiden voyage early next year towards England. Measuring 162 meters, she features 140 guest cabins all facing out to the sea. The design of the ship might be regarded as retro, but its considered construction was specifically undertaken in order to facilitate sustainable holidaymaking. The ship will use its sails and sea currents for around 70% of its propulsion throughout any season. Photos Tradewind Yoyages.
