What is the cost of the Oculus yacht?
New $95 million superyacht looks like a killer whale The story A spectacular superyacht has been designed by an internationally renowned urban planning architect in a very unusual shape. Seventy-six meter long “Oculus,” which is designed for 12 guests, looks like a large sea creature, with one end looking uncannily like the jaw and eye socket of a shark or a killer whale. A second design, the futuristic, 91-meter “Infinitas,” is based on the figure-of-eight shape of an infinity loop. Sources: http://edition.cnn.com/2009/TECH/07/29/yacht.killer.
It’s almost cruel of us to post about the Schöpfer Oculus, a 250-foot luxury yacht inspired by an oceanic fish. With room for 12 people to comfortably cruise at 25 knots, the rear of the Oculus remains open like a gigantic jaw that’s eating the passengers alive in luxury. And what appears to be a cleverly-placed window fills in an apt spot for an eye. Inside, the ceilings reach an impressive 12-feet (hey, those are higher than where I live every day!) while the entire boat is still described as a “low rider,” featuring retractable panels that protect the decks from swells. Wait, why are we even bothering to explain all of this to you? You can’t afford it. It costs $95 million. Sources: http://gizmodo.
