Saturnia multi-purpose superyacht doubles as a private port for tenders

 

This new design from Lazzarini Design Studio is not so outlandish like last year’s swan shaped mega yacht, but is impressive with features like dry carbon-fibre structure, a private port for small tenders, and glass-bottomed decks. The openings on both sides lift up to reveal the private port for water toys and tenders. The top deck features a hexagonal-shaped pool. Lazzarini Saturnia can even incorporate seawater.

Lazzarini Saturnia’s main body subdivides the spaces in five floors + the top Antenna area. Saturnia can be configured for different layouts and solutions to obtain from 10 to 20 suites for passengers and 20 crew members.

Made 100% of dry carbon fiber body, Saturnia superyacht it’s estimated to be 50% lighter than other yachts of similar sizes, with an incredible estimated top speeds never reached from this size of yacht up to 30 knots.

Shaped mostly of geometric straight lines, the design of Saturnia allows a very simple and efficient construction procedures never being used before in the yachting industry. The focal point of the project is the walkable all around deck area that allows access the tenders to the inner harbor from both sides and represents the iconic area of the yacht.

The yacht can incorporate seawater, that can be kept inside or drained out once the gates are closed. This middle entrance of the yacht allows tenders with up to 1.5 meters of draft to moor inside the private port/garage or to be easily loaded when the yacht is navigating.

The internal area in the middle is directly connected to outside through the large sliding windows allowing to experience these spaces, maximizing the connection with the sea.

Imagined being with an hybrid propulsion, the Saturnia yacht is moved from twin side diesel engines and a central electronic water jet system, that can push the yacht with zero emissions.

Saturnia concept is joined by two recent futuristic designs from Lazzarini: Jet Capsule, Hyperjet, Sea Flower yacht, and Stratosfera, an ultra-light carbon fiber sphere that can move on water and in the sky.

Tap a place on the map and Next iFly one-Person eVTOL will go there

 

 

@Next iFLY eVTOL Personal Air Vehicle

This One-Person eVTOL is ready to take you anywhere.

Advanced air mobility start-up NeXt has introduced an all-electric vertical take-off and landing (evTOL) personal air vehicle. NeXt is seeking an investment partner for funding iFLY which has undergone extensive successful proof-of-concept flight testing and has recently been awarded a United States Patent.

NeXt Unveils iFLY eVTOL Personal Air Vehicle

If you ask anyone what superpower they wish they had, the ability to fly ranks right up there at the top of the list and it’s one of the oldest and most enduring human aspirations. iFLY takes flying to new heights by making it simple and safe for everyone.

@Next iFLY eVTOL Personal Air Vehicle

The flying vehicle engages users with a powerful and intuitive mobile companion app. Users simply tap a map to select a destination landing site using the touchscreen on their iOS or Android mobile device which provides instructions to iFLY for a seamless and enjoyable autonomous flight experience to a destination without the need for pilot interaction in the traditional sense of conventional airplanes.

iFLY has eight propellers guarded in protective safety enclosures, eight electric motors that run on batteries and a comfortable passenger compartment. NeXt is currently exploring the possibility to qualify iFLY initially as a Powered Ultralight by the FAA so that no pilot’s license will be required to fly.

@Next iFLY eVTOL Personal Air Vehicle

iFLY provides a unique combination of high stability, high agility and destination flexibility with a powerful set of integrated safety features including advanced redundant flight control systems which control the speed of the electric motors to change the overall speed and direction of flight.

The new vehicle calculates wind speed, altitude and the energy required to safely fly to and from a destination and automatically returns home or lands in a safe area, if necessary, in the event the battery approaches a minimum acceptable safe power level.

The VTOL will also be provided with a ballistic parachute that automatically deploys in the event of an emergency.

In not so distant future iFly will become reality, if the company manages to find investors.
