ME WANT2: WHY eco-friendly yacht and Roman Abramovich my hero!
It's a plane! No, it's a space ship. No it's a boat. A Boat? Yes, the WHY is quite simply the most magnificently realized yacht ever. Beyond comprehension.
Wally Yachts is no stranger to innovative, fabulous yacht designs but this one in particular strikes my fancy.
I've wanted a yacht, like I've wanted a jet, forever. I guess I'm lucky that I haven't had a chance to sink my money yet into a traditional yacht because this yacht, the WHY (Wally-Hermès Yacht) is a dream. It's not even remotely like a traditional yacht but more like a floating island. Almost as wide as it is long (58m x 38m or 190ft x 124ft), it seems like its half beachfront property.
And the soaring open interior.
One of my heroes (because he's so rich and he likes toys that I like/want), that cute Russian oil oligarch billionaire, Roman Abramovich (see previous listing here about all of the things this guy has that I'd like too), has a fleet of yachts, one of which, aptly named The Eclipse (the photo of boat below Abramovich pic), is the world's largest in the world at 557ft. His other yachts include: the Pelorus (377ft), the Ecstasea ( 282ft) and the Sussurro (161ft)....but I'll bet he'll be building the next world's largest, but a WHY version.
FEAST your eyes/dreams upon this. Couldn't you just sail away on this and NEVER come back? Bye bye Republicans! Bye bye radical fundamentalist Christians! Bye bye neo-Nazis! Bye Bye Dick Cheney!
So just retract those roofs and put the petal to the metal and blue skies from now on. Right? Watch the video below.
The 'Why' (Wally-Hermes) boat is the newest luxury boat in the world. I'm a boat enthusiast and I am a fan of such new innovation. Like most import boatss, 'Why' is very classy and fuel efficient. But its quality is equally matched by its soaring price. Only billionaires can afford such amazing vessel.
There are a lot of sleek ocean yachts for sale in the market. It might not be as spacious as 'Why', but the same luxurious feel is there, at a more affordable price
