Franco Gnessi of Dynaship Yacht Design hopes to impress you with his most recent idea.
The megayacht, christened the Bullet, is an exercise in perspective, as its distinctly minimalist exterior ingeniously conceals a rather complex interior. Simply put, the 200-footer’s true size is not evident at first glance.
The bullet is comprised of a series of sinuous lines that combine to form a streamlined, aerodynamic silhouette. It has the long snout (or foredeck) of a Prancing Horse, similar to a Ferrari. The Italian designer also opted for a traditional displacement hull to provide the vessel with a great deal of resilience and seaworthiness. On second thought, it might be more comparable to a Porsche Cayenne.
The bullet is also designed to have a minimal environmental impact. The yacht is outfitted with four 2,000 horsepower electro-diesel generators that generate the majority of its power. Additionally, she is equipped with a few solar panels that generate pure, eco-friendly energy for the hotel load. Regarding propulsion, two azipods with electric motors generate 1,940 kW to provide Bullet with an estimated operating speed of 22 knots and a maximum speed of 26 knots.
With a range of 3,000 nautical miles at 14 knots, the vessel is also well-suited for lengthy voyages. In terms of autonomy, according to Gnessi, Bullet will be able to silently cruise on pure electricity for approximately 90 minutes at eight knots. Now it sounds more like the Audi Q8 E-Tron, a zero-emissions SUV.
The Bullet, meanwhile, has an insane 975 GT interior volume. The decor and furnishings of the living quarters are the epitomai of “Made in Italy,” showcasing the finest of the boot-shaped country. According to Gnessi, there are plenty of “social spaces for parties,” but a strong emphasis on privacy ensures that you can appreciate your downtime.
