The Sonny III luxury sailing yacht is for sale

The 27.8-meter vessel is powered by a 310-horsepower Cummins QSB diesel engine, and is for sale for $5.75 million.

Campbell & Nicholsons has put up for sale a 94-year-old billionaire's custom-built sailing yacht, Sonny III. With a 27.8-meter length and 310 horsepower Cummins QSB diesel engine, the vessel is priced at $5.75 million. In 2021, the yacht underwent a sophisticated refit and received high-performance racing equipment. In 2022, it competed in the prestigious St Barth Bucket Regatta.

Launched in 2018, the yacht is operated by a minimal crew thanks to a simple sail control system, with all mechanical and navigational controls within arm’s reach of the helmsman. Sonny III’s rig includes carbon fiber rigging from Offshore Spars and a mainsail with a hydraulic boom.

It features an oval-shaped cockpit, a flat deck and wide spaces, making it an ideal weekend cruiser for families. The interior is finished in teak. The second cockpit has an alfresco dining area with seating for eight people.

The interior also includes a large sofa and a teak table inlaid with a wind rose and to starboard is a navigation station and galley. Sonny III has three staterooms accommodating up to eight guests.
