While sailboats make up a small portion of the number of boats sold in the U.S. every year compared to power boats, the passion that sailboat owners have for their favorite style of boating is unmatched. There is something spiritual about being on the water with no humming engine and just the wind to propel you to your destination. Sailboats run the gamut in length, amenities, price, and features. Most sailboats still have a small engine just in case of emergencies or the owner wants to cruise under power. Smaller sailboats use a centerboard, which is a board that sticks out of the bottom of the boat to reduce sideways motions, as well as a rudder to maintain course and steer. The larger the sailboat you get, you will instead have a fixed keel, although its draft may prevent you from getting too shallow. Sailboats don't have to be monohull either. One of the most popular types of sailboats today, especially for yacht charter in the islands, are sailing catamarans which offer more space and stability that a sailboat. There is simply nothing like plotting a course and using the energy provided by the earth to reach your destination. Let the team at United Yacht Sales help you find the used sailboat of your dreams today or let us help you sell your existing boat.
