This is a cool boat... Definitely not your normal megayacht... H2OME:
"The concept design and the external lines, which concern bottom, hull and engineering, let H2ome be considered a 'race' yacht. Thanks to the narrow and long bottom, the 'double speed' hull at 20 knots, allows a nagivation in displacement speed, that is, an economical (700 litres/hr) and comfortable navigation, whereas the planing hull allows a navigation in surfing speed reaching a maximum speed up to 36 knots (1800 litres/hr)."
OK, now comes the super cool part...
There are two optional tenders:
JET TENDER:
Hawker 400XP or maybe a Lear jet... the brochures don't agree... but hey, a jet's a jet, right? :) For 120,000 euros/week the private jet is completely at the charterer's disposal. 20 hours of fuel is included in this price. Or, it may be chartered for single use at 5000 euros/hr
CAR TENDER:
Bentley Continental GT - The H20 Car Tender is available for chartering, both for your pleasure and for businesstrips. The staff will organize and supervise your land transfers carefully and discreetly and, on your request, hostesses, interpreters, tour guides, and other personnel can accompany you for your safety.
Both H20 Tenders can remain available for any change introduced to the cruise, such as a flying visit to a Montecarlo casino or a romantic dinner in Paris.
Of course, you have the toys of jet skis, nice dinghy, waterskis, pull/towing toys, etc. that you would expect on a charter yacht, too.
