For the GFY'ers who love to brag - let's see who can buy this first

http://www.cnn.com/2009/TECH/07/29/y...ale/index.html

LONDON, England (CNN) -- A spectacular superyacht has been designed by an internationally renowned urban planning architect in a very unusual shape.

The design of "Oculus" was inspired by the jaw and eye-socket bone structure of large oceanic creatures.

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.

The pair are the brainchild of Kevin Schopfer, a Boston, Massachusetts-based architect who felt the design of luxury yachts should move away from generic boat shapes to something more playful.

The two eye-catching designs, which include inside swimming pools and helipads, are still looking for an owner. With a starting price of $95 million for Oculus and $140 million for Infinitas, they don't come cheap.

But Schopfer has teamed with naval architecture firm Sparkman & Stevens to build more of the vessels.

"There are several potential clients interested in both Oculus and Infinitas and discussions are ongoing," he told CNN. "And we are also working on several more yachts."

PSSuperstars · 07-30-2009, 08:32 PM

OMG Must have.

epitome · 07-30-2009, 08:36 PM

I love the view from the top, the stern and most of each side. I am not crazy at all about the bow.

Pleasurepays · 07-30-2009, 08:37 PM

as someone who came from a family of boat builders.. that's fucking awesome!

David! · 07-30-2009, 08:37 PM

BusterBunny · 07-30-2009, 08:45 PM

Brad Mitchell · 07-30-2009, 09:58 PM

Brad

That thing is crazy looking. I like it!

mynameisjim · 07-30-2009, 10:25 PM

The designer said the boat is designed for 12 guests. WTF!! A yacht like that needs no less than 100 bikini clad women to be on board at all times.

Really? Looks cool, but doesn't look that outdoor friendly to me... Doesn't seem to draw you outside, seems to draw you inside. IMO

I think I'll keep looking.

2MuchMark · 07-30-2009, 10:38 PM

Surprise! We have rented it for a boat party at Qwebec Expo in August. Honest.

SilentKnight · 07-30-2009, 10:43 PM

Looks like a giant floating chip bag clip.

Rattlehead · 07-30-2009, 10:44 PM

Already got one on order.

SilentKnight · 07-30-2009, 10:48 PM

...and the Infinitas looks like a giant dustbuster.

TidalWave · 07-30-2009, 10:48 PM

Amazing! Looks great!

born2blog · 07-30-2009, 10:51 PM

Meeper · 07-30-2009, 11:28 PM

I think it looks pretty awesome. The top view really shows what it looks like. Check out the inside, it looks amazing.

Meeper · 07-30-2009, 11:30 PM

and the inside of the infinitas:

digitaldivas · 07-30-2009, 11:31 PM

Yeah, I would be down to buy that if I was that rich. Just to see people's reactions. But, I'm an intensity freak, so reactions would get me off, nicely.

Spunky · 07-30-2009, 11:34 PM

Wow.if only I could piss away my money on that

NickB. · 07-31-2009, 12:04 AM

Looks more like a leaf blower.

You expect to hear the sirens warning of a dive at any moment...

No Mr Bond I expect you to be eaten....by my boat.

NetHorse · 07-31-2009, 02:18 AM

Honestly that was my mistake - was meaning to say "New" not "ew"

Though I do question your price tag in blowing 10 dead guys, prefer to do it the old fashioned way by working in porn and merely telling everyone I bought it

Raf1 · 07-31-2009, 04:55 AM

I guess that's what people spend money on when they go crazy. Very ugly...

seeandsee · 07-31-2009, 05:28 AM

DutchMOFO · 07-31-2009, 05:29 AM

i mean to bring something like that from sketches to architects drawings to actual plans and then to actually build it is an amazing feat.

3zekiel · 07-31-2009, 05:33 AM

I like the idea with the pool in the second one. that's hot

pornguy · 07-31-2009, 05:35 AM

Actually I like them both. Nice to see something other then the same old shit.

Bomber8888 · 07-31-2009, 06:04 AM

I think it looks sick... put me down for one!

John-ACWM · 07-31-2009, 06:32 AM

Very nice designs indeed

Lace · 07-31-2009, 07:48 AM

Definitely wild looking but 95 mil? Keep that shit

Pete-KT · 07-31-2009, 07:52 AM

Thats a nice yacht

dav3 · 07-31-2009, 07:53 AM
