That certainly is hideous! I don't think there is one redeeming feature on it for me.

Hm...cool yes. Guess the finish on the details is superb. But somehow the shape remind me about the "ships" kids builds with a few pieaces of wood, a saw and some nails. I think its good he focused on computers and phones , not ship designs... The monitors on the bridge looks very un cool, just like no efforts done the design it.

There are 7 iMacs in the wheelhouse if it helps
I think it looks stunning and breaks away from the same old super yacht look.

Looks like a building that would be more at home on the South Bank London, I find it rather ugly but just my opinion. Still wouln't mind a trip on it LOL.

Being able to see the back of the bridge monitors shows a lack of attention to detail and it looks like all of the glazing is clear, I think I would want some privacy!
I think the buildings look better than the boat!

I keep looking at the video and it still hasn't grown on me. I think my main dislike is the superstructure, it looks like someone has dumped a rather cheap and nasty beach house on top of the hull. I agree the Mac monitors on the bridge do look crap from the outside as well. I can't see this being an easy boat to sell on (assuming the wife doesn't like it either).

I just want to know WHY!!!??? Surely he's got enough money to pay someone to design a nice one.
Still I bet it's nicer to be on the inside of it looking out, rather than on the outside looking in.
