The futuristic $14.5 million luxury trimaran yacht Adastra has turned
heads during its unveiling ceremony in China. It took five years to plan
and build and has been described by boating websites such as Boating
International as one of the "world’s most amazing superyachts". At
42m-long and 16m-wide, the fuel-efficient boat weighs in at 52 tonnes.
It has a maximum speed of 22.5 knots and has a range of 4000 nautical
miles at 17 knots – which is enough for a trip from the UK to New York.
The vessel, designed by John Shuttleworth Yacht Designs and built by
McConaghy Boats in Zhu Ha, China, can even be controlled with an Apple
iPad within a 50m range.
