The <strong>Sea</strong> <strong>Cloud</strong>: the greatest<br />

windjammer legend of all time.<br />

Legendary<br />

BeguiLing<br />

incomparaBLe<br />

At its launch in 1931, the <strong>Sea</strong> <strong>Cloud</strong> was the most magnificent sailing<br />

yacht in the world, a masterpiece of shipbuilding and the last private fourmast<br />

ship ever to have been built. Every detail of the legendary sailing lady<br />

reveals the originality of that time; every extravagance shows the charming<br />

individuality of her original owners, Marjorie Merriweather Post and her<br />

husband, Edward Hutton.<br />

The chequered past of the <strong>Sea</strong> <strong>Cloud</strong> reads like an exciting novel in<br />

which a piece of world history has been recorded. And even today, life<br />

on board is in many respects similar to the glamour and leisure of that<br />

bygone era when politicians and playboys, diplomats, Hollywood stars and<br />

old aristocracy graced the ship’s decks. But the <strong>Sea</strong> <strong>Cloud</strong> still remains a<br />

private home at sea. The splendour of a former age creates an atmospheric<br />

setting on board. And as the etiquette of earlier times has given way to a<br />

more casual ambience, this will be a voyage on which you can savour the<br />

high class combined with the relaxed nature of modern-day living.<br />

You will experience the authenticity of the <strong>Sea</strong> <strong>Cloud</strong>’s charm, with its<br />

wonderful touches of nostalgia and timeless beauty that surprises you at<br />

every turn. The ship’s majesty is captivating. The <strong>Sea</strong> <strong>Cloud</strong> is truly a<br />

living legend and, for many, is the real highlight of their trip.<br />
