At 143 metres in length, the world's largest sailing yacht should be able to leave Gibraltar tomorrow.

The very terse official statement from the owner's London agent reads: "This unfortunate incident involving 'Sailing Yacht A' has now been resolved. The yacht will now be handed over to the owner's project team and will leave Gibraltar shortly."

The three-master, designed by Philippe Starck, is to be prepared in Cartagena for the final handover to the owner.
