noun
yacht; sailboat
Commonly refers to a sailing boat, especially a small to medium-sized one with a single mast. The English word 'yacht' often implies luxury, but in Japanese ヨット is used more broadly for recreational sailing boats.
週末に友達とヨットに乗った。
I went sailing with friends on the weekend.
彼は小さなヨットで海を渡っ
He crossed the sea in a small sailboat.
