New Generation Boats

I am sure the Coast Guard just loves this individual....
Can you believe this guy?




I'll bet he's turned many an eye while passing other boaters.






French artist Julien Berthier has designed a fully functional boat to look as if it is sinking.



He describes it as "the permanent and mobile image of a wrecked ship that has become a
functional and safe leisure object."



 

 
The 6.5m (21ft) yacht was cut in half with a new keel and motor added so it remains in the sinking position while being fully functional.

$1bn for a floating city

A LAVISH new yacht recreating the billionaire's playground of Monaco is set to become the world's most expensive.  


Streets of MonacoCurrently in the design stage, the super-ship will feature smaller versions of the state’s famous landmarks such as the Monte Carlo Casino and racetrack, as well as swimming pools, tennis courts, a cinema, a go kart track and a Hotel de Paris.
Travelers will also spot waterfalls, a swim-in Jacuzzi-bar, helicopters and submarines on board.

Instead of traditional decks the one-of-a-kind ship will have buildings, and instead of a swimming platform it will have a beach. The one-of a kind ship could be home to 16 guests and 70 crew with the main apartment spread over three floors and 445 sq m.

The ship will exceed the $1 billion price tag reportedly paid by Roman Abramovich for his Eclipse yacht.

This is what happens in Malta! - CRAZYYY



This is what happens in Malta after a few hours of rain!!

The owner of those coffins has claimed that he has lost over €350,000. His workshop was flooded while he had over 800+ coffins, most of which were damaged. The man also claimed that he had six hearses and six private cars which were filled up to a metre of mud.....The makings of a viking funeral.
