Dutch shipbuilder Royal Huisman has unveiled plans for Sky, a 264-foot sailing superyacht set to feature the world’s tallest mast at 305 feet, matching the height of the Statue of Liberty from ground to torch. This Rondal rig surpasses the mast heights of existing record holders like Jeff Bezos’ 417-foot yacht Koru, whose masts range between 213 and 280 feet.

The interior accommodates 10 to 12 guests, featuring a full-beam owner’s stater
