Sailing Yacht’s were originally Dutch vessels on the look out for pirates, It was only when Charles (the second) bought a yacht as a transport method on his return to England from the Netherlands it became more commonly used in transporting the upper class to their destinations.
Yachts used to be made primarily out of steel or wood, but more modern yachts are using more sophisticated materials, ost often its fiberglass, steel or aluminium, with a few more materials thrown into the mix, including plywood, which would mainly be used in constructing a more personal yacht as a hobby.
