I wonder… can a modern military submarine (like US or Russian nuclear attack subs) detect a sailing yacht on the surface via sonar or any means other than sticking the scope up and looking around? A sailing yacht is relatively small (no more usually than 40 feet), built of lightweight materials (mostly composite plastic, rarely aluminum or wood or steel) and usually is under sails, using its engine mostly to enter and exit ports. So the only sound it makes is the sound of the hull moving through water. Can modern passive sonars pick it up and distinguish from other sounds of the sea?
OK, one more thing I probably didn’t make clear – I was considering mostly passive sonar, with active sonar that is certainly possible but subs routinely avoid using active sonar as it reveals their presence to other military ships.

I seen this video in the 90′s sometime and it came from the library it had the most beautiful scenery in it the sailing yacht went to untouched regions of the world and the ending featured alaska and the aurora borealis it also had places like england, ireland, greenland, and other places there were no people and no one was sailing the sailing yacht. the yacht was white with very red sails if I remember correctly and it was large and very beautiful and there were voices for the yacht describing where it was going next and this waterfall with snow all on its rocks and trees had snow on them and there was a voice for the waterfall there were never any people throughout the whole video I do no know the name of this video I want to find it again can you please help and give me the name of the video thank you. I did not know what other category to put this question under it is not actually a cruise like people on a ship but more like visualizations of sceneries and such.

killed. If you have a sailing yacht do you have to climb the masts or can you manage the sails from the deck?
