About Wind Star
Wind Star is a compact, four-masted sailing yacht operated by Windstar Cruises and marketed by Tauck on selected small-ship journeys. Built in 1986 and renovated in 2023, the 148-guest vessel emphasizes an informal, yachting-style experience with open teak decks, ocean-view accommodations and a high crew-to-guest ratio. Its small size allows access to ports that larger cruise ships cannot reach, while six self-furling sails provide the ship’s distinctive sailing character.
