I love these types of ad-hominem arguments against the affluent, without consideration to the many people that were employed as a result of its construction. Or the many vocations that are fueled by the passions of those craftsman/workers doing what they love. Surely you would have them devote their labours to something "novel" that only you would see fit. Get a grip.

      Are you serious? The design is unusual just for the sake of it. The owner cares more about making impressions than inteligent use of space. This place screams 'i crave attention and want to impress above all'. I guess some people will believe anything is art as long as an authoritative British accent says it is.

      Hi Cindy,
      Take nkte of the number of guest cabins and see the U tube of the small design crew delivering her to the Solent from Ipswich and their visit to the supermarket for provisions. This yacht is designed with stowage to feed the owner and his guests for long trips at sea, as well as water roys to play with when anchored off in warm water.
      She may well sail like a day sailer but she has accomodation and stowage for a long term cruiser and, making 12 knots steadily ar 30 degrees off the wind, ocean passages will be fast.
      Peter.

Sure, space is usually a premium and every inch is always packed...but he knew he only wanted a max of 6...and at 111 ft, that just means that everyone has a ton of comfort and room while offering pretty darn good performance. That's one of those things that's really just about what you can afford. If you can afford lots of extra space and performance...then I say "go for it!"

When I discover the renders a couple years ago, I thought that was only a kind of “design concept”, but actually not, it’s true yacht now! That’s is the future of large yacht : uniqueness, eco-friendliness and technologically advanced. You won’t need to have the biggest yacht to be “cool” but the most outstanding on every sides, and no depending on the size every more.
    Thanks for the walkthrough!
