Maltese-flagged Star Clipper graces harbour
With a sail area of 36,000 feet and a 226-foot mast, the Star Clipper is a familiar ship in the Port of Valletta.
But for the first time today, it entered harbour flying the Maltese flag.
The Star Clipper, together with Royal Clipper and Star Flyer, is operated by Star Clippers, the only modern-day cruise line dedicated to recreating the golden age of the tall sailing ships, providing passengers with a mega-yacht experience.

The Star Clipper fleet are an impressive sight with their sails full deployed, most especially their flagship, the "Royal Clipper".
