Oman Royal Yacht Squadron

The Oman Royal Yacht Squadron is the Sultan of Oman's personal fleet of pleasure craft ranging from the grand Al Said through to the traditional wooden-hulled sailing vessel Zinat al Bihaar.

The Squadron is totally independent of the Royal Navy of Oman and the Royal Guard of Oman and is administered by the Diwan of Royal Court Affairs.

The Squadron's personnel strength is 150.
