The yacht, which can soar above the waves

It may be that in the near future guests of the Spanish island of Ibiza can be seen in the coastal waters of the amazing object, its shape reminiscent of a geometric shape tetrahedron (triangular pyramid). It looks like this vehicle is so unusual that the agent Fox Mulder could easily mistake it for an alien space ship made an emergency landing in the Mediterranean.




But in fact, this is just a concept yacht designer Jonathan London Schwinge, which aims to create a vessel that can be lifted above the waves.



The designer originally designed the yacht so that she was able to "levitate" above the water submersible thanks to the vertical rack which is attached to the hull. By the bottom of the rack is attached something like a torpedo with wings. When a boat gains enough speed, Front put forward, and her body is lifted above the water. During the parking stand is pulled into the boat and lowered onto the water surface.



"This design allows the boat just two waterline - explains Jonathan Schwinge on his official website. - At low speed tetrahedron falls into the water, but at high speed hydrofoils lift it up. In this position, the yacht can reach speeds of up to 70 kilometers per hour. ยป



Of course, such a concept is somewhere on the verge of reality and science fiction. But as you know, dream of inventors not forbid. And who knows, maybe very soon one of the most famous billionaires decide to invest their money in the creation of a real prototype of this amazing ship?
