Speed, elegance, and exclusivity are just a few terms that come to mind when viewing a Bugatti. You would feel fortunate to possess this automotive masterpiece, but would that be sufficient? The incredible Xenos hyper yacht makes it abundantly apparent that we are perpetually desirous of more.

This radical yacht design appears to have been influenced by ammunition, which seems appropriate when designing something that is heart-poundingly rapid. If the Xenos yacht is able to reach speeds of up to 90 knots, it will be the quickest 130-foot vessel in the world. However, this yacht is not solely designed to shatter records.

The renowned Italian yacht designer Pierpaolo Lazzarini ensured that this superyacht could not be compared to anything else, and added a subtle addition, a matching Bugatti, which adds even more value to the yacht’s $32.8 million price tag. Does that sound like overkill?

Not yet, but you might assume so after hearing about the yacht’s impressive carbon and aluminum construction.

The sleek, 25-foot-long Xenos undoubtedly appears swift, and the best part is that customers can customize the interior layout of their vessel. You can presumably move the Bugatti into the lounge for that price if you so choose.

This innovative yacht is available with either a conventional hull or a foil configuration and can be powered by two, three, or four engines. How does 5,000 bhp affect you?

Environmentalists are likely in a state of hysteria right now, but there is some ‘green’ news they might appreciate: energy specialists at Architaly have developed an integrated solar panel system.

This solar electric system allows the hybrid roadster to cruise for up to eight hours without emitting any CO2.

The yacht is also equipped with photochromic windows, a peculiar term for a type of glass that can alter its transparency based on the intensity of light, allowing for more privacy when desired and rest for the eyes.

Add the expansive lounge on the upper deck, three spacious suites, a fantastic galley, and a spacious living room on the lower level, as well as the water toys and tenders, and you have a winner. Where do we go?

When it comes to impressing potential superyacht owners, the motto of “the more, the merrier” certainly holds true. And the “groundbreaking” 65-meter (213 ft) yacht called “See” is designed to make a splash with its extravagant features. This remarkable vessel, created by New York-based studio Gill Schmid Design and Southampton-based Lateral Naval Architects, boasts not just one, but five pools. Two of these pools are infinity pools, with one even featuring a see-through floor.

Transparency is a recurring theme on See, as the boat incorporates enormous wrap-around reflective glass walls. The yacht also includes a glass roof above a 3D outdoor cinema screen, which can be retracted to create an expansive oceanfront terrace.

Food enthusiasts will find themselves well-catered to on See, thanks to its “concept kitchen.” Chefs can make use of hydroponic tanks, a fermentation chamber, a mushroom lab, and an outdoor barbecue to create culinary delights. Guests have the option to dine al fresco, at a sushi counter, a deli and raw food counter, or indulge in refreshing beverages and desserts at the juice, coffee, and dessert bar. According to Gill Schmid Design, food is an integral part of the holistic lifestyle aboard the yacht.

Fitness enthusiasts can take advantage of the onboard gym and then relax in the sauna/steam room or soothe their muscles in the hot tub. Passengers are accommodated in six suites, along with an extensive outdoor deck in the owner’s suite.

The layout of See is open plan, with convertible spaces that can transform from separate areas to a completely open and immersive environment of experiences. Gill Schmid Design describes it as a fusion of Transformers in an architectural context. This innovative design allows the vessel to provide a more laid-back atmosphere with casual dining, living, and entertainment spaces, foregoing formal saloons or dining areas and breaking the traditional barriers between guests and crew.

See will primarily rely on batteries as its power source, which will be recharged by diesel engines. Gill Schmid Design explains that this system enables the selection of diesel generators based purely on efficiency and optimum energy density. This approach enhances overall architectural efficiency, layout flexibility, noise and vibration reduction, maintenance, and operational effectiveness of the entire vessel.

Although See is currently a concept, Gill Schmid Design expresses ongoing interest from both shipyards and potential buyers, and they hope to see it enter production in the future.

Tillberg Design, a Swedish yacht design company under The Viken Group, has unveiled additional details regarding the interior concept of an upcoming 207-meter Four Seasons Yacht being constructed at Fincantieri shipyard. This bespoke 14-deck vessel will boast 95 cabins, aiming to provide passengers with an unparalleled “yacht experience” upon its launch in 2025.

Tillberg Design is entrusted with crafting the exterior and suites, while London’s Martin Brudnizki Design Studio is tasked with designing the guest facilities. Creative direction for the Four Seasons Yacht will also be guided by Prosper Assouline.

Fredrik Johansson, the executive director of Tillberg Design, emphasized that the new Four Seasons yacht reflects the surging trend of “luxury yacht liners.” These hybrid cruise-superyacht hybrids intend to fuse the intimacy of small cruise ships with the opulence and elegance of superyachts.

Johansson elaborated, “Our innovative project commenced with a unique and vivid vision from our client. Picture the iconic Christina O yacht of Aristotle Onassis meeting the essence of James Bond. While this might seem like an infallible combination, it also presents a monumental challenge. Errors must be avoided at all costs, as there’s no room for failure. Every aspect and intricate detail of the yacht must attain perfection.”

Fincantieri in Trieste is in the final stages of finalizing the vessel’s design. Luigi Matarazzo, the general manager of Fincantieri’s merchant ships division, stated, “This project belongs to a league of its own, merging the finest aspects of passenger ship construction and yacht design to establish a new benchmark for ultra-luxury vessels.”

The Four Seasons Yacht will exclusively comprise suites, with each cabin costing $4.2 million to construct. Each suite will feature indoor and outdoor living areas, complete with expansive floor-to-ceiling windows and ceilings exceeding 2.4 meters. The pinnacle of luxury, the “Funnel Suite,” will span four levels, offering over 892 square feet of living space, a private pool, and a spa.

The Four Seasons Yacht will also incorporate hotel-style amenities, including a comprehensive spa and eleven distinct restaurants. The canoe-shaped stern of the vessel will house a convertible pool deck that can transform into an open-air theater by nightfall. Moreover, the ship will be equipped with four Riva tenders for transporting guests to shore.

Overseeing the project is Larry Pimentel, the CEO of Marc-Henry Cruise Holdings, who remarked, “In collaboration with Four Seasons, we are shaping a new category of lavish lifestyle travel tailored to the most discerning guests. Through world-class design, curated experiences, and truly unparalleled service, we’re amalgamating the finest elements from diverse industries to forge the epitome of yachting.”

The inaugural voyage of the Four Seasons Yacht is slated for late 2025, marking the inauguration of a fleet of such “yachts” under the brand. The contract, finalized in July of the previous year, amounts to €1.2 billion and includes the option for two additional vessels.

 

Strand Craft is offering a remarkable promotion with its 122 luxury yacht – a 38-meter Open super yacht that comes with a free supercar upon purchase. Designed by Gray Design, the Strand Craft 122 concept boasts a stunning Art Deco interior featuring four double rooms, four large staterooms, a reception, salon, and numerous crew cabins. The yacht is equipped with 52” LED TVs, Bang & Olufsen sound in all rooms, and offers the latest in state-of-the-art technology and engineering.

Powering this luxurious vessel are twin Rolls Royce engines, and with the optional booster, it can generate over 14,000 horsepower, achieving speeds of up to 50 knots. The supercar that accompanies the yacht is hand-crafted and uses a twin-turbo V12 engine, producing up to 880 horsepower and reaching a top speed of around 230 mph. The yacht and the supercar are designed to complement each other, and the yacht features a built-in garage to securely house the supercar.

However, the ultimate luxury of owning this extraordinary package comes with a substantial price tag of around US$25 million. Furthermore, only six of these exclusive yacht-and-supercar sets are scheduled to be made, and it’s rumored that five of them have already been sold. So, those interested in this unique offer will need to act quickly to secure their place among the privileged few.

The CEO of the global chain of Starbucks coffee shops is Howard Schultz. Starbucks began as a single coffee shop in Seattle and now has more than 30000 locations spread over 77 countries. Howard Schultz has earned a large net worth of almost $4 Billion as a result of this enormous firm. In 2019, he paid an astounding $145 Million for the uber-luxurious yacht Pi

Yachts may be classified as opulent, innovative, or stunning. However, the $145 million super yacht Pi, owned by Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz, has also been dubbed “auspicious.” Pi is the pinnacle of beauty and grandeur.

2019 saw the completion of the Pi Yacht by the Dutch shipyard Feadship. According to Superyacht Times, with a length of roughly 77.8 meters, Pi was the 22nd longest boat constructed by Feadship. She is a wonderful work of art with a steel hull and an aluminum superstructure. The Pi features a distinctive design made possible by cutting-edge glass technology from a computer-aided 3D design.

The PI is nearly flawless, boasting exceptional build quality, superb design, and innovation. Sinot Exclusive Yacht Design created the yacht’s exquisite Zen-inspired interiors, and De Voogt Naval Architects handled the naval design in accordance with Yacht Bible. The positioning of floor-to-ceiling windows without mullions, which realizes the owner’s vision for the main saloon and really matches the outside, is one of Pi’s best aspects.

Her timeless design, exquisite furniture, and comfy seating enhance her opulent and friendly atmosphere. According to Luxury Launches, Pi won prizes for Motor Yacht of the Year and Best Displacement Motor Yacht Between 1,500GT and 1,999GT at the 2019 World Superyacht Honours. The immaculate building of the Feadship was the cherry on top that gave Howard Schultz a winner to sail.

Up to 12 guests can stay on the yacht in 16 sumptuous guest suites with an 18-person team. Among other things, she has a pool with a glass bottom and an opulent spa. A stunning spiral staircase connecting three levels and a spacious sitting area with an eight-person sofa are just two of the outstanding characteristics of the cozy and fashionable Pi. She also brags about having a garage and a helipad.

The outside lines of the vessel are notable for their innovative use of structural glass that has a double curvature. The vessel, which Jarko Jammsen designed as his first superyacht undertaking, has four decks that are excellent for guests’ amusement and leisure. The spacious main deck at the back can be set up for outdoor dining in a relaxed atmosphere or for lots of sunbathing. In addition, side walkways connect the spacious upper deck behind the ship to the flush foredeck. The sundeck up top is the greatest place on board to take in the scenery.
