This spaceship was designed for the water.
The owner’s interest in power catamarans came during a visit to Australia and a ride on a high-speed cat designed by Sydney-based naval architects and fast-cat specialists Incat Crowther. “He really liked the stability you get from two hulls, and the tremendous interior space. Wanting his next boat to be something very different than a traditional monohull superyacht, he asked Studio F.A. Porsche to come up with a groundbreaking design,” explains Leitner.
Those slender, twin hulls are joined by an almost egg-like superstructure with a wave-piercing lower section and acres of curved, super-strong glass. “The owner had a vision to create something that demonstrated the power of a sports car—a Porsche—with a touch of spaceship for the sea,’” says Leitner. “A yacht that would really make a statement and break the mold of what a superyacht should look like.” It would be the first superyacht design from the Austrian Studio F.A. Porsche, the independent design arm of the famous car maker.Being a “Porsche” it needed to go fast.
Steps lead to the upper deck and one of the yacht’s showcase features, the owner’s suite. As well as copious amounts of space, there’s a Porsche Design circular bathroom with its brushed-metal finishes andhere is the secluded owner’s terrace off the master bedroom. It features an intimate, circular dining table, positioned below a large skylight, for star-gazing during fine dining.
“Unfortunately, we finalized plans for the club in February 2020, just as the pandemic started to lock things down. Everything was put on hold,” says Leitner.
