isn’t the purpose of yachting to have as much open space for sun as possible.

No that’s not the primary purpose - that would be to showoff how wealthy you are compared to other people in ‘row boats’.
was just thinking that in the green future the rich boaters will all own galleys while the uber rich will own longboats. can’t produce sailing ships because Sails won’t be green enough. betting Klaus will have a tripledecker longboat like Cleopatra and rowers will be working for food.
