Why can't I be the guy that gets to have on of those?

How much do they cost?

They will be real one day - these are CG images of what the final design will look like.

Hello Mr Abramovich. Your latest gin palace monstrosity is ready in the water

I cant say as I'm all that keen on either of them

/puts cheque book away

If all 9,305 active OcUK members put in $10000 (cba to work it out in £) then we can buy an OcUK yacht

doesnt seem worth it really :/

The GDP of China might be enough to allow you a bit of change from buying one but I wouldn't count on it.

They're certainly impressive technical achievements and striking to look at but I couldn't honestly call them beautiful as I could with many more conventional yacht designs. I suppose I'm missing the point though slightly, as an ostentatious show of your wealth you'll not find much better.

Second one looks like a shoe.

Apparently you only get two days of hapiness from a boat, the day you buy it and the day you sell it but I sure would like to put that to the test with one of these.

The back looks like a ugly fish opening it mouth

the front looks cool and it kinda similar to the boat in " the league of extraordinary gentlemen"

250 foot Oculus $85 million - $95 million

300+ foot Infinitas $130 million to $150 million

which is a bargain when you consider that they reckon Roman Abramovich's 350 foot one, Pelorus, cost around $300million

Interesting....not as beautiful as the 150 foot yachts in the harbour here though....mine games, 24karat, mustang sally are a few of my favourites...

looks like something from final fantasy

Why does one of them look like a futuristic iron?
