Superyacht Alloy 45m, Encore

An Encore After The Eclipse

It is said that there is nothing that moves a performing artist more than a request, no make that a demand, from the audience for more. It often causes the artist to reach deep down and bring every bit of their skills and passion into the new presentation. An encore often creates a piece of art viewed as perfection. When the almost twenty year owners of the 32.6 meter Eclipse, Greg and his wife Kay, decided it was time for their own custom built yacht, they opted for an encore. The Eclipse was the first collaboration between the Naval Architect, Dubois Naval Architects, and the custom yacht builder, Alloy Yachts. For their new Superyacht, the couple turned to the artist that created their beloved Eclipse. The result was the 43.9 meter fixed keel sloop that they appropriately named the Encore.

Superyacht Vitters Inoui

The Sailing Superyacht Inouï- In Any Language It Is Exciting.

When the Sailing Superyacht Inouï makes port or passes you in a Superyacht regatta she will get your attention. The French name translates to WOW -Exciting- Amazing and once you see her, you will never forget her. A portion of the impression is because of her unique lines, she has a familiar but distinctly different look to her and of course there is her hull with a custom designed bright green color. Among the few non-traditional color hull yachts is the Gliss, a turquoises colored 32 meter Royal Huisman-built sailing yacht. The Gliss was designed by the Naval Architectural firm of Philippe Briand, and that is who the owner of the Gliss decided would design his new yacht, Inouï. The Dutch builder Vitters Shipyard was selected to build the Inouï. This builder started in 1990 building hulls and in 1993 built its first yacht. One of its first Superyachts was the 48.5 meter (160 ft) Thalia, one of the largest yachts in the world when she was built. The legacy of those first Superyachts continues and the yard has an outstanding reputation. In 2010, Vitters Shipyard bought the U.K. Ship builder Green Marine. Green Marine was founded in 1982 and is the leader in carbon fiber boat construction. The company has built more than 160 composite boats, including some particularly high profile race designs. Green Marine is also the leader in the highly specialized sector of building carbon fiber hulls and structures for Superyachts. Green Marine was tasked with building the hull and structures for the Inouï.

Supercar Ferrari F12 Review

Few automobile manufacturers have a reputation like Ferrari. The company is known all over the world for designing and producing some of the most innovative car technology. The F12 Berlinetta continues this history by exploring new ways to reduce pollution while improving performance. In true Ferrari style, the V12 also has plenty of personality.

Ferrari F12 Berlinetta Features

Ferrari's engineers poured a lot of imagination into the F12 Berlinetta. F12 Berlinetta is the first car to feature a bonnet (Americans know it as the car's hood) that uses the wind to create downward force. This offers natural stabilization that keeps the car firmly on the road even while travelling at high speeds. At 200 km/hr (124 mph), the Aero Bridge feature generates 123kg (271 lbs) of force. Such a simple design tweak contributes to the auto's overall performance without increasing its fuel consumption.
