THE world’s largest sailing yacht arrived in Greenock yesterday.
Three-masted Bermuda rigged schooner Eos came in from Cork for a fortnight’s stay at James Watt Dock Marina.
She is being prepared by her crew for a cruise on the Clyde and around Scotland with her American owner, who is flying in for the trip.
The impressive yacht is believed to be owned by movie and media billionaire Barry Diller, who is a former chairman and chief executive officer of Paramount Pictures.
A marina spokesperson said: “James Watt is the logical choice for the yacht to be berthed before setting out on the cruise.”
Eos measures approximately 305ft, has 200ft tall masts and took three years to build.
Little is known about the yacht’s interior, kept a secret by Mr Diller, but it reportedly boasts a glass staircase and panoramic views astern.
