The marine iguana



in the world every week there are new concepts yacht, but most designers beat the familiar motifs. What to do - customers of luxury vessels, usually shocking against the grain. Draft British designer Alex MakDarmida stands out among the others. In creating the concept of 85-meter superyacht was inspired by lizards - not sea creatures. To be precise, a source of inspiration were the iguanas. Actually, the ship called Iwana in honor of the original names of these reptiles in the language of the Taino peoples inhabiting the islands of the Caribbean. Later, Aboriginal title, having undergone little transformation, migrated to the Spanish, and then went around the world. MakDarmid says, he wanted to expand the idea of ​​the style yachts. Home superstructure resembles the head of a lizard, which gradually becomes a "comb" - decks and an antenna tower. The roof superstructure author of the project proposes to make fully transparent, the image of the glass roofs of modern cars. On board Iwana must be a complete set of sea "toys" such as jet skis and scuba are also performed in the "creepy" style. And even a helicopter, as suggested MakDarmid, without fail should be similar to a lizard.
