This Porsche Superyacht Is A Thing Of Beauty [Images]

If you can't quite decide between buying a Porsche and buying a superyacht, then we have some excellent news for you.

Porsche is synonymous with wealth, luxury, and innovation.

So it makes sense that for nearly a decade now, the luxury carmaker has been threatening to design and produce a superyacht.

The wait is over, and the new Royal Falcon One is on the market.

It was designed by Studio F.A. Porsche and developed by Singapore-based firm Royal Falcon Fleet.

According to CNN, people are describing it as “a spaceship on water”.

It’s not hard to see why:

Royal Falcon One, which can accommodate up to 10 guests, features twin 4,600 horsepower diesel engines and twin Rolls-Royce KaMeWa waterjets, which offer an estimated speed of 35 knots and a range of around 3,200 kilometers with low fuel consumption.

“The idea was to create the equivalent square footage of a 210 foot monohull yacht with a length of 135 feet,” according to Studio F.A. Porsche, formerly the Porsche Design Studio.

“The exterior was to represent speed and dynamics in a new and different way. The two hulls create a completely different stance impression, almost resembling the track of a sports car.”

The yacht also has four large guest cabins, a master bedroom with its own sun deck, jacuzzi and bar, and a tender garage.

Developed to “create an impression of functional luxury,” Royal Falcon One’s modern interior features a lot of white and blue, as well as metallic and wood surfaces.

The superyacht was first commissioned in 2009, when Royal Falcon Fleet requested a yacht that “no one had ever built.”

According to Studio F.A. Porsche, their only stipulation was that it would be a catamaran configuration.

Apparently, the price is available upon request, which means it will feature a number of zeros.

All I know is it’s probably more than most of us will make in a lifetime.

It’s nice to look at, though.
