Berge Olympus: The World’s Most Powerful Sailing Cargo Ship

By : Carla Wardle / Updated: November 15, 2026

Berge Olympus is often searched alongside Cape Town yachts, but she is not a charter boat in our fleet. She is a large sailing cargo ship, built to move freight with the help of sails, not to take guests out from the V&A Waterfront.

What Berge Olympus is

The original article on this page described Berge Olympus as one of the most powerful sailing cargo ships in the world: a working vessel, sometimes seen in or associated with news about Cape Town shipping, not a yacht you can hire by the hour.

We do not operate Berge Olympus. We cannot sell tickets or cabins on her. If you arrived here looking to book a boat, use the links below.

If you wanted a Cape Town yacht charter

For a private cruise, start with our fleet or the blog. Popular trips include a sunset yacht cruise and boat cruises from the Waterfront.
