As well as a gleaming hull repaint, there is a new extendable passerelle that takes you all the way down to the water where there is a new inflatable platform for beach-club sea-level living. The flybridge has a new circular sunbed that rotates with the sun. Inside you’ll find her guest areas brighter and more welcoming with lighter woods, cream panels and new tapestries.
There’s a new cinema room on the main deck, a redesigned Japanese-style dining room and her gym shares a state-of-the-art MS Sculpt electric muscle stimulator with the massage room. As well as the latest Starlink Wi-Fi throughout and a wheelhouse brimming with the latest technology, she now operates more sustainably with LED lighting throughout, a new engine control room and new generators for lower noise and vibration.
Her unique features remain, like the three-deck sky-lit atrium where the stairs spiral around the main mast, an iconic architectural wonder. You can still indulge your passion for film with the world’s largest outdoor cinema, where movies are projected onto the lower sail so you can watch from the flybridge. The main deck aft, now shaded by a stylish new hardtop, is even better suited to entertainment with open-air dining aft and a circular sit-up bar, revamped with cream marble and new sound and light systems.
On the water, you'll find whatever you're looking for in MALTESE FALCON's garage of brand-new toys. She has a 10m (33ft) Pascoe tender to ferry guests into port or onto a deserted beach for a BBQ and thrill them on waterskis and wakeboards. SeaBobs, kayaks, SUPs, jet surfs, snorkelling equipment, windsurfers - she has plenty to keep you entertained.
When it's time for bed, the full-beam master suite on the lower deck has a large walk-in wardrobe and adjoining gym as well as his-and-hers bathrooms, now with jacuzzi bath as well as a shower room. As principal you may be tempted to take the private VIP deck instead, aft facing on the flybridge with access to the terrace and walkaround side decks, as it has a brand-new bed with a TV that rises from beneath it. There are an additional four double cabins on the lower deck, each with en suite facilities.

9 Fascinating Facts About the ‘Maltese Falcon,’ One of the World’s Most Iconic Sailing Yachts
A three-deck atrium, two master suites, two cinemas, and the innovative falconrig are just a few of the secrets of this highly technical yacht., julia zaltzman, julia zaltzman's most recent stories.

At the time of its 2006 delivery, the 289-foot Maltese Falcon held the title of the world’s largest sailing yacht—nearly stretching the length of a football field, with a 42-foot beam. The Falcon ’s first-place status has been eclipsed by more recent launches, including the 348-foot Black Pearl and Jeff Bezos’s 417-foot Koru . But the Maltese Falcon remains one of the most iconic boats on the water as well as one of the largest sailing yachts for charter via Burgess.
Commissioned by the late Tom Perkins—a pioneer of Silicon Valley’s venture capital industry who was briefly married to romance novelist Danielle Steel (his own novel, Sex and the Single Zillionaire, is still available on Amazon)—and built by Perini Navi, Maltese Falcon has won 18 design awards since its launch. Naval architecture was by Gerard Dijkstra, with the original design by Ken Freivokh.
The three-mast sailing yacht last year completed an interior, exterior, and engineering refit at Lusben shipyard. The series of aesthetic and functional improvements include the hull being repainted in Perini Blue and a new extendable passerelle that takes guests down to the water. The teak deck was also replaced, and interiors refurbished with lighter woods, cream panels, and new tapestries.
Here are nine cool facts you didn’t know about the Maltese Falcon .
The FalconRig
The innovative masts and sails, inspired by the 1960s DynaRig concept, were produced by U.K.-based Insensys. The FalconRig is based on three rotating and freestanding masts made from “weapons-grade” carbon fiber, capable of deploying up to 24,756 square feet of sail in six seconds (the average time it takes to tie a necktie) at the push of a button. The huge sail area is spread over 15 sails to greatly reduce the loads while delivering a potential top speed of 25 knots. Maltese Falcon carries a total of 25 sails, giving it 10 to spare. Despite its success, the technology has not been widely adopted, though Black Pearl comes close with its DynaRig system.
This is Where the Magic Happens
All this innovation was only possible with specialized technology, including sensors in the sails that measure loads, wind speeds, and tidal currents, specialized software that Perkins wrote to help crunch this data in nanoseconds and a centralized control center that does most of the sailing automatically. Perkins’s goal was to create a complex but very easy-to-handle sailing machine. He once boasted: “I can teach any sailor how to handle the yacht in five minutes.”
Two Cinemas
One of the yacht’s most unique features is the world’s largest outdoor cinema (above) projected onto the lower sail. Guests can watch from the flybridge or the lounging space at the bow of the sundeck. Since the refit, there is now an indoor cinema (below), with wood paneling and comfy sofas that deliver a Zen vibe.
Three-deck Atrium
Under Perkins’s stewardship, Maltese Falcon contained an incredible collection of modern art, which served as inspiration for the yacht’s “luxury machine” interior penned by Freivokh. It combined industrial chic with high tech, manifested in leather, glass, wood, and steel. The art may no longer be on board and the interior has been refurbished, but the three-deck atrium, with stairs spiraling around the main mast (below), remains a showstopping feature.
Six Years in Build
The hull was built on spec in 1989 by Perini Navi and sat for 10 years waiting for the right owner. When Perkins, who had spent a decade planning the vessel, green-lit the build process, it took from 2000 to 2006, or about twice the time of a typical custom superyacht because of its complexity. Perkins had amassed a fleet of vessels over a 25-year period that included the 141-foot Perini Navi Andromeda la Dea, a 154-foot ketch of the same name, and the Herreshoff classic Mariette of 1915 . He also owned a restored classic yacht called Atlantide . But Maltese Falcon was Perkins’s opus. He wanted a high-tech, but easy-to-handle sailing machine. He once boasted: “I can teach any sailor how to handle the yacht in five minutes.”
Rotating Sunbed
Maltese Falcon is known for its large modern spaces, including an indoor/outdoor bar area where the glitterati have mingled on deck. Among the yacht’s many refit improvements is a new circular sunbed on the flybridge that rotates with the sun to deliver maximum tanning exposure, guest convenience, and a continuous stream of panoramic vistas.
The Bogart Connection
The name Maltese Falcon was inspired by the 1941 American film noir of the same name, directed by John Huston, that starred Humphrey Bogart and Peter Lorre. Many consider it the greatest detective movie ever made. The black bird, originally made in gold and encrusted with jewels, is also a symbol of extreme wealth. The emblem appears throughout the yacht, on the sails, the linen, and in the form of a bronze sculpture positioned by the indoor cinema.
Two Masters
Officially, there is only one full-beam master suite (top), with a large walk-in wardrobe, an adjoining gym, and his-and-hers bathrooms with a Jacuzzi bath and shower room. However, the private full-beam VIP (bottom) is a close runner up, which many consider a second primary. Facing the flybridge with access to the terrace and walkaround side decks, it has a new bed with a television that rises from the floor. There are an additional four double cabins on the lower deck, each with en suite facilities.
A Full Chest of Water Toys
It’s not surprising that a yacht renowned for being technologically advanced should hold a plethora of toys and other cool amenities. The onboard gym has a state-of-the-art MS Sculpt electric muscle stimulator for toning without breaking a sweat. In the water, there are eFoils, paddleboards, and jetsurfers. The two original Pascoe tenders remain, though Perkins took the DeepFlight Super Falcon personal submersible with him when he sold the yacht in 2009. It was the world’s first “winged submersible” built by Hawkes Ocean Technologies and was named in honor of Maltese Falcon . He later installed the sub aboard his motor yacht Dr No , a converted fisheries training ship, which he used to explore the Pacific Islands.

- specifications
- testimonials
As one of the world’s most iconic and recognisable superyachts, a luxury charter aboard the 88m Maltese Falcon is an experience that commands some serious bragging rights.
Built by renowned Italian shipyard Perini Navi at its Turkish base in Tuzla, Istanbul, Maltese Falcon was commissioned for the late Tom Perkins who, in the early 2000s, enlisted one of the Netherlands’ best- known yacht design companies, Dykstra Naval Architects, to the construction team. This collaboration resulted in the yacht’s most distinctive feature – the revolutionary DynaRig sailing system, which boasts three self-standing and rotating masts holding 15 sails for a total sail area of 2,400 square metres, deployed at the push of a few buttons.
Unique allure
Maltese Falcon launched in 2006 to considerable fanfare, and she continues to turn heads wherever she goes. She’s also fast: she can reach a maximum speed of 18 knots with an impressive range of 3,000 nautical miles at a cruising speed of 14 knots, making her perfect for charter on both sides of the Atlantic.
With a unique and compelling allure, to date she has hosted an A-list of charter guests including Tom Hanks, Hugh Jackman and Google co-founder Larry Page. With a minimalist black and silver superstructure, the Maltese Falcon’s vast 11,000 square feet of living space is as opulent, luxurious and comfortable as you would expect. Designed by renowned British architect Ken Freivokh, expect a contemporary ambiance with an industrial edge, complemented by a magnificent art collection throughout.
Luxury living
Accommodating 12 guests in six Art Deco staterooms, five on the lower deck with one upper deck VIP with its own private deck, every guest will be living in utmost luxury during their time on board. A cinema room can be found on the main deck along with the formal Japanese-inspired dining area which is connected to the upper deck with a striking circular staircase.
Here you will find a spacious area perfect for sunbathing by day, transforming by night into an open-air cinema with one of largest screens to be found on a superyacht while stylish indoor and outdoor bar areas offer the perfect spot for sundowners.
Ultimate hospitality
Maltese Falcon carries a crew of 18 who are available around the clock to cater to all guests’ needs. For those looking for an adrenaline rush at sea, there’s a near endless list of water toys and tenders at your disposal, including a 10m Pascoe tender with a 400hp engine, a 4.3 Castoldi jet tender with a 125hp engine, SUPS, SeaBobs, kayaks, inflatables and so much more.
For those who want to keep fit, Maltese Falcon’s private fitness trainer is available for one-to-one or group classes, while the resident beauty and massage therapist is trained in everything from aromatherapy and Swedish massage to deep tissue treatments to ease away any tensions and help you relax and unwind.
Global recognition
Since her launch, Maltese Falcon has won 18 awards and global recognitions for her outstanding design, innovative sailing capabilities and interior layout including ‘Superyacht World Trophy’ and the ‘First Baccarat Superyacht World trophy for Finest Superyacht Ever’.
In addition, she has won several superyacht regattas, including the Perini Navi Cup in Porto Cervo, Sardinia in September 2018. Whether you’re searching for ultimate luxury or have a need for speed, Maltese Falcon is in a league all her own.

Maltese Falcon - Yacht for Charter
From €490,000 EUR
- Builder Perini Navi
- Length 88m (289ft)
- Year 2006 / 2023
Experience the radical, award-winning Maltese Falcon for yourself with a summer charter in the Mediterranean.
Aside from her excellent sailing performance, the MALTESE FALCON yacht is peppered with amenities: she’s got the largest outdoor cinema of any yacht, a light-flooded reading room and saloon, and a Jacuzzi, spa and gym. Her iconic looks are guaranteed to turn heads in any marina.
Interior Design & Engineering
When she was launched in 2006, the MALTESE FALCON sailing yacht became the first to incorporate the now-renowned Falcon Rig. Despite the appearance of an antique square rigger, it offers twice the efficiency of its predecessors and was lauded as a triumph in design and innovation.
This luxury superyacht underwent a couple of recent refits that were completed by the end of the 2022/23 Winter. As well as receiving upgraded generators and a new Wi-Fi internet system, the MALTESE FALCON yacht also got a refreshed interior. The carpets in the lounge, cabins, office and cinema room were replaced, and the furniture and artwork were updated, amongst other improvements.
MALTESE FALCON accommodates 12 guests across six cabins. The upper deck VIP suite features a private deck forward with a Jacuzzi. The rest of the guests are spread across five doubles, each with an en suite bathroom that was updated during her refit.
Yacht facilities & entertainment
If you’re not putting MALTESE FALCON through her paces at a regatta, there’s still plenty to enjoy onboard. You can unwind in the Jacuzzi aft of her main deck, where there’s plenty of space to lounge or fire up the new barbecue and enjoy an alfresco meal, then watch the setting sun with a cocktail at the bar.
After pushing yourself in the recently upgraded gym with new Pilates equipment, you can recover in the spa, relieve your aching muscles with a massage or enjoy a treatment with the new Sculpt machine. When night falls, you can watch a movie projected right onto the sails of the MALTESE FALCON sailing yacht, which becomes the largest outdoor screen on the water.
During her recent refits, one of the largest improvements was the addition of a new 10 square metre pool and sunbed on the aft flybridge, plus a new relaxation area on the VIP deck.
Toys and Crew
There’s a crew of 19 on-hand to make your MALTESE FALCON yacht charter as memorable as possible.
Her recently expanded collection of water toys includes a flyboard and jetpack, waterskis, wakeboards, kneeboards and tows, kite surfing gear, plus towable inflatables to satiate your need for adrenaline. If you want to explore what lies below, there’s enough scuba diving gear for six, while those who prefer a more relaxing paddle on the surface will enjoy the SUPs. There’s also a floating teak platform for anyone who likes to float on more sturdy ground.
