Toyota's apparently developing the world's most powerful production 2.0-liter four-banger, america’s new 4-cylinder motorcycle makes harley-davidsons seem tasteless.
Monaco is no doubt a dream town. European or not there is no one in this world who does not wish to see it at least once. So, it comes as no surprise that a legend like this has inspired a luxury yacht. Called Streets of Monaco, this is a concept yacht designed by Yacht Island Design in cooperation to BMT Nigel Gee.
"The art of producing a themed yacht is to seamlessly weave a story into every element of the design and is achieved via extensive consultation with the client during the initial phases of the design process."
The yacht features four major external deck spaces. The first one includes the main swimming pool with swim-in Jacuzzi/bar and the Casino Square, featuring a large glass-bottomed fountain in a tranquil garden setting. The second one is a multi-purpose courtyard that allows various sporting activities and doubles as a helipad.
The third is called ‘The Oasis’ and includes a central waterfall feature, a Spa with manicure and hair salon, sauna/steam rooms and a relaxation lounge featuring a spa pool with a bar. And finally the fourth one is called Grand Atrium and includes seven guest suites, library, communal office, communal balcony and cinema.
Continued after the jump.
The yacht is powered by a diesel-electric powertrain and will be able to hit a top speed of 15 knots. All this beauty has been designed to accommodate only 16 guests and 70 crew.
Only one thing remains: put it to production!
YOU could be forgiven for thinking a city's streets must stay firmly on the ground.
But a £1bn superyacht is throwing that idea out the window with a replica Monaco Grand Prix track on its deck.
The Streets of Monaco is a luxury yacht inspired by the lavish city that, while still in the design phase, will feature everything you'd expect from a visit to the French city-state, including casinos and swimming pools.
Designed by Yacht Island Design , the superyacht is centred around its replica of the famous Grand Prix circuit which will be a functioning go-kart track where guests can race against each other.
The 152m yacht will have a special owner's apartment and seven guest suites and can sleep up to 16 guests and 70 crew.
The suites are all on the lower level of the central atrium and each have their own reception room, bathroom, dressing room, bedroom and balcony - with the VIP suites also featuring a private office.
Also in the atrium is the owner's apartment which is spread over three floors. In addition to all the features in the guest suites, the owner's apartment also has a private courtyard, sunroom and private sundeck with a jacuzzi and swimming pool.
The main boarding point of the yacht is The Oasis - a double-height foyer modelled on the gardens just outside the Monaco Casino.
Living up to its name, The Oasis features multi-level pools which cascade from one to another, a jacuzzi and seating among plants, to give guests a peaceful place to relax while onboard.
Additionally, the yacht includes a helicopter pad, tennis court, spa, gym, manicure and hair salon, sauna and steam rooms, private massage suites, cinema and library.
A spokesperson for the design company said: "The theme is based around the Mediterranean principality with the primary focus being the famous grand prix circuit.
"The idea was to recreate the circuit as a fully functional kart track, able to accommodate three karts side by side to allow for plenty of overtaking.
"By sizing the track in this way it has driven the overall dimensions of the yacht and the placement of the famous landmarks.
"The Monaco story extends beyond this exterior architecture and into the interior spaces giving a seamless transition as guests move between the various areas of the yacht."

With a prohibitive price of $1.1 billion the Streets of Monaco Yacht, named after the famous principality and millionaire’s playground, is a lesson in extravagance and exclusivity. Currently the largest and most expensive personal boat (Eclipse) belongs to Russian tycoon Roman Abramovich, however the yacht, currently in its initial design phase, would no doubt make even the Russian a tad envious. Perhaps with good reason, as the yacht will feature miniatures and scaled down versions of the famous Monte Carlo Casino, Hotel de Paris, Cafe de Paris, La Racasse, the Loews Hotel and last but certainly not least, the owner of the yacht will have access to the main apartment which encompasses and astounding 4,800 square feet and is spread over three floors. The yacht even features a go-kart race track inspired by The Monaco Grand Prix. What good is being out in the ocean if there isn’t a beach? No need to worry as the vessel features a beach as well as multiple swimming pools and tennis courts.
As if the cost of purchasing the yacht wasn’t nearly enough, and believe me it is, the estimated cost of running the ship could total tens of millions a year. The only question that remains now is, who is going to buy it?

Streets of monaco yacht.
Everyone has their favorite city, a place where they feel most at home whether or not they live there. But what if you could pack up that place and take it with you, basically anywhere you wanted to go? That's sort of the idea behind the Streets of Monaco Yacht (Around $1 Billion). This insane invention aims to recreate Europe's most notorious billionaire enclave with scaled down clones of iconic structures like the Monte Carlo Casino, Hotel de Paris, Cafe de Paris, and even the Grand Prix course, functioning as a go-kart course on the deck of this 500-foot watercraft. Other features include multiple swimming pools, a multi-use court for basketball and tennis that doubles as a helipad, a submarine (!), an interior "oasis" area, space for up to 16 guests and 70 staff members, a spa, and, of course, a swim-up jacuzzi bar. All of which begs the question: how big does a yacht have to be before it becomes a city unto itself?
So it's a little behind schedule — it was originally set to debut in... $140,000.

For the super-rich it would combine the delights of Monaco with untrammelled access to the ports of the world – as well as bragging rights as to owning the world’s most expensive personal yacht.
British designers have produced plans for a floating replica of the principality named Streets Of Monaco which features scaled-down versions of its famous landmarks including the Monte Carlo racetrack.
The 500ft-long boat – expected to cost up to £700million – also boasts miniatures of the famed Monte Carlo Casino, Hotel de Paris, Cafe de Paris, La Rascasse, the Loews Hotel as well as swimming pools and tennis courts.
It even has a platform that holds smaller yachts in case prospective owners need something a little nippier to get around in.
The most mind-bending feature is the Monaco Grand Prix-inspired go-kart track complete with tunnel complex which runs around the deck.
The ship is the brainchild of fledgling Derbyshire-based Yacht Island Design.
Company director Rob McPherson said: ‘The design theme called for a unique yacht that reflected the style and sophistication of the principality.
‘We want to create a truly unique environment that could take the principality of Monaco to the ocean.’
But for the designers the centerpiece of the incredible ship is The Atrium, which links the upper and lower living areas.
The Atrium has seven guest suites which all include their own reception room, bathroom, dressing room, bedroom and balcony.
In total, Streets of Monaco’ would be capable of housing 16 guests and 70 crew and would cost the owner tens of millions to run each year.
And the billionaire owner would get the benefit of the main apartment which is spread over three floors, sprawling an amazing 4,800sq ft – the size of a luxury penthouse.
The four-deck yacht will also have BBQ facilities dotted around the deck as well as a mini waterfall and cafe bar with underwater views.
While only at a design stage, The Streets Of Monaco would likely exceed the £665 million price-tag rumored to be paid by Roman Abramovich for his ‘Eclipse’ yacht to become the world’s most expensive personal boat.
At 500ft, The Streets of Monaco is 25ft shorter than the Chelsea owner’s super-yacht but Abramovich would undoubtedly be envious of the Monaco’s fully functional kart circuit.
Now that the design has been completed, the only question remaining for Yacht Island Design is whether they can find a billionaire with enough spare change to turn it into a reality.
The yacht that could revolutionize luxury yachting
“ The Streets of Monaco “, the eccentric yacht would be the closest thing to the idea of a floating luxury hotel. A surprisingly flashy and expensive prototype, “ The Streets of Monaco ,” a $ 965 million titan
The project designed by Yacht Island Design is still a prototype, but if possible it would be one of the most impressive inventions of pleasure in contemporary history.
As its name suggests, The Streets of Monaco is based on the popular European town characterized by its luxurious casinos and prestigious hotels. Due to the intimidating size of her, the structure of the yacht is swath type, similar to that of cargo ships.
As for the size of it, the yacht would be 155 meters in length, which would fit 16 people in the main living areas and another 70 corresponding to the crew. Also, the maximum speed of it would be 15 knots or 28 km / h.
Due to the magnitude of it, the Streets of Monaco would enter numerous leisure areas such as bars, swimming pools, tennis courts and even a heliport in case you have to abandon ship in an emergency. In addition, the spa, gym, hairdresser and beauty salon will allow you to achieve the maximum possible relaxation.
But that’s not all, as it would also include a restaurant, a library, a large movie theater with the latest in audiovisual technology, a solarium, a wine cellar, and up to seven guest rooms, including a 356-square-meter VIP room.
The design of this luxurious and eccentric yacht designed exclusively for magnates includes a central department of 1,460 square meters distributed on three floors capable of connecting to all decks by means of a private elevator. This home would be for the owner or guests
The price of it, if the development takes place, could reach a little more than USD 965 million.

Several prominent figures in the tech, banking, and legal fields are missing and presumed dead after a yacht capsized off the coast of Sicily and dropped about 150 feet to the bottom of the Mediterranean.
The Italian coast guard has undertaken recovery efforts, the WSJ noted, and it’s being assisted by diving teams, helicopters, patrol boats, and marine-accident investigators from the United Kingdom. While the rescuers have so far only recovered the body of the yacht’s chef, they believe that the rest of the missing are trapped inside the ship.
“The space is very tight, because everything fell when [the yacht] capsized,” Luca Cari, the head of Italy ’s national firefighters’ corps, told The Wall Street Journal . “Divers are trying to remove furnishings, wires and other debris to clear the passageways.”
The group was aboard the yacht to celebrate Lynch’s recent acquittal related to charges that he had faked the value of his company Autonomy when he sold it to Hewlett Packard for $11 billion, the WSJ wrote. Bloomer had led the audit committee at Autonomy, while Morvillo represented Lynch during his trial.

Monaco's "Green is the New Glam" campaign, launched in 2018, highlighted many of the country's environmental efforts. And a 2023 tourism campaign named sustainability as one of three key pillars — alongside "Instagrammability" and digital nomad appeal — for attracting new travelers.
Its green goals are at odds with its greenhouse-gas-emitting superyachts and beloved Formula One races. The latter's carbon footprint amounted to more than 223,000 tons of carbon dioxide across the 2022 season, according to a Formula One report. But they do align with a new boating competition E1 which races 100% electric-powered speedboats.
Monaco is one of six locations hosting the competition, which launched in Saudi Arabia in February.
During the Monaco race on July 28, Bernard d'Alessandri, general secretary and managing director of Yacht Club de Monaco, said E1 showcases new technology for boat racing.
"Before E1, it was impossible to have a race with electric boats," he said. "E1 has proven you can."
Nine teams, co-piloted by one man and one woman, are competing in Racebirds, fully electric speedboats custom-built for E1. Akin to a high-tech hummingbird, its small wings, head and body are punctuated by an extended nose and a sleek metallic exterior.
According to race organizers, the Racebird is a certified zero-emission boat, which doesn't release oil or fuel into the water and creates around half the noise and fewer waves than typical motorized boats — all of which can distress marine life.
Race organizers also use robotic anchorless buoys to mark courses, which don't damage seabeds like anchors do, said Rodi Basso, E1's CEO and co-founder, and a former Formula One engineer.
Since the first race, organizers have gradually reduced the time and shipping containers needed to host the races. Now they are working on building boats near race sites, rather than moving boats around for each competition, organizers said.
Basso said the race has already attracted the attention of important "stakeholders" in the country, including Prince Albert II of Monaco.
"They've seen we are serious about the values that we were trying to build," he said. "They care about the future of yachting."
Racebird creator Sophi Horne said getting the attention of Monaco's boating elite wasn't easy.
She said very few people believed in the Racebird during its design phase. But the race changed that, she said, recalling a recent meeting with a megayacht designer in Monaco she has long admired.
"Sitting at his office with his naval architects going over the Racebird concept in detail, and for it to trigger a different way of thinking — that was huge for me," Horne said.
Horne is founder and chair of a separate company, Seabird, which focuses on electric powerboat design and development. She said she is now taking orders from local boating enthusiasts interested in going electric.
"They see the coolness of it, and they want something their buddies don't have," she said. "The Racebird is so different from what they've seen before … they want to know if we can make its baby sister, but something that will fit the whole family."
E1's celebrity factor is drumming up attention too — an intentional move for a race with boats that reach a top speed of 58 miles per hour, slower than Formula One H2O speedboats, which can go nearly 150 miles per hour.
The nine team owners — actor Will Smith, tennis player Rafael Nadal, singer Marc Anthony, NFL player Tom Brady, soccer star Didier Drogba, cricketer Virat Kohli, Formula One driver Sergio Perez, DJ/record producer Steve Aoki and billionaire businessman Marcelo Claure — are central characters in the races, with their names and faces emblazoned on marketing materials.
Brady and Drogba were spotted embracing at the VIP lounge in Monaco, after Brady's team made it to the top of the leaderboard following the fourth race of the season.
But team owners are called on to do more than just cheer on their boats. E1 requires both owners and teams play an active role in marine conservation. E1 will crown a winner not just of the championship itself, but of its conservation program, Blue Impact. Team Nadal is working to protect the endangered seagrass meadows found in the Mediterranean Sea, which surrounds his native Mallorca, and Monaco, too.
The celebrity factor also brings conservation awareness to the public, said professor Carlos Duarte, climate change scientist and E1's chief scientist.
"Having people like Tom Brady talk about committing themselves to ocean action has a huge influence on public engagement," he said. "Then we can talk about solutions, we can talk about new technology, we can talk about what the communities are doing in the cities that we race in."
The remaining two races in the E1 Series are scheduled to occur on Aug. 23 in Lake Como, Italy, followed by Hong Kong on Nov. 10.
