Mega Yacht EL HORRIA by Samuda BrosShe was rebuilt in 1905/6 in Italy and became one of the earliest ships of any size to be fitted with steam turbines. Her greatest claim to historical fame is that, as the Egyptian royal yacht, she was the first ship leading the procession through the brand new Suez Canal in 1869. Sometime in the latter 19th century, she was cut in two and had approx. 40’ added to her length. She was recently reboilered in Alexandria.

In 1976, at the age of 111 years, she steamed to New York to take part in the U.S. bicentennial celebration. The ship’s condition is immaculate, and duty in her is considered a great honor in the Egyptian Naval Forces. EL HORRIA goes to sea about three times a year, usually just for the day.
