A thing of beauty from the drawing board of Philippe Starck, don't believe what you read about it in the paper...

 

[Georgio]

The designer has a straight ruler and he's really getting his money's worth out of it!

It's certinly a "bold" design.

 

[Hoolie]

It does look a bit stark. But what's it like on-board? I certainly spend very little time admiring my boat from afar, for several reasons

On and below decks it could be very liveable, though the bridge shot reminded me of a call centre ... ...

We don't need to read anything. The pictures are enough.

It is butt ugly!

Clearly Jonathan Ive was not involved in the process.

Are you sure he wasn't

"What we decided to do was to reimagine how a boat should be, so we designed iVenus, its 100% longer than any other boat out there, and 50% slimmer, its the best boat since boat. It has 100hrs of battery life, and comes in cool white... it uses revolutionary production techniques..."

etc...
