Ο Henrik Fisker βρίσκεται ξανά σε σχεδιαστικό οίστρο και εκτός ότι ετοιμάζεται να παρουσιάσει ένα supercar στο Detroit, ο Δανός συνεργάστηκε με την ιταλική εταιρία κατασκευής πολυτελών σκαφών Benetti, για να σχεδιάσει ένα νέο γιοτ μήκους 50 μέτρων. Ο Fisker θα είναι υπεύθυνος για τον σχεδιασμό τόσο του εξωτερικού όσο και του εσωτερικού, με το σκάφος να παρουσιάζεται τον ερχόμενο Φλεβάρη στο περιθώριο του Miami International Boat Show.
Το σκάφος θα διαθέτει τρία καταστρώματα, θα έχει σπα, πισίνα, έξι καμπίνες, θα μπορεί να φιλοξενήσει έως 11 άτομα πληρώματος, θα κάνει χρήση carbon και άλλο εξωτικών υλικών, με τις καμπίνες να διαθέτουν ξύλινες επενδύσεις. Κίνηση θα παίρνει από έναν υβριδικό κινητήρα, με τις μπαταρίες του ηλεκτροκινητήρα να φορτίζουν μέσω ηλιακών συλλεκτών.
Ο Fisker δεν είναι ο μοναδικός σχεδιαστής αυτοκινήτων που έχει αναλάβει την σχεδίαση ενός σκάφους. Ο Frank Stephenson της McLaren έχει σχεδιάσει το δικό του ταχύπλοο, ενώ και ο Ian Callum της Jaguar έχει δημιουργήσει ένα σκάφος.

HENRIK FISKER AND BENETTI TEAMED-UP TO CREATE AN INNOVATIVE SERIES OF SUPERYACHT CONCEPTS
DECEMBER 21, 2015 (Los Angeles, Calif.) – Entrepreneur and acclaimed international designer Henrik Fisker, the founder of Henrik Fisker Design, and influential global superyacht builder Benetti are joining forces to create a series of innovative 50 meter – (164 feet) superyachts. The collaboration is focused on a new 50 meter yacht with naval architecture by Benetti. The yacht will be designed in California and built at the Benetti facilities in Livorno, at the heart of the Tuscan coastline.
The concept will integrate a new platform developed by Benetti’s engineering team with Fisker’s sporty exterior and interior designs. Fisker is pioneering a new design concept to enhance and optimize the onboard experience by utilizing more space on the vast superyacht for both hosting and leisure. The design will add a new “human flow” element to reduce unused space and increase its usability.
The yacht exterior will have a dramatic body using light weight carbon fiber and other exotic materials, as well as optimized ocean views from all major cabins and use reclaimed wood, integrated solar panels and optional hybrid power.
The interiors will feature the new design concept for each of the three decks that will enhance the space and emphasize comfortable and clean luxury living in a pristine environment. The interiors will feature advanced and sustainable materials, and state-of-the-art technology for automated controls and optimal power management.
Onboard amenities will include a beach club, spa, several bars, a pool and sunbathing areas on multiple decks. A future owner will welcome 12 guests in six cabins, looked after by 11 crew members with comfortable staff quarters.
Fisker is renowned as the international designer for famous iconic, exotic and collectable cars. He is best known for his BMW Z8, Aston Martin DB9, Aston Martin V8 Vantage, as well as the Artega GT, Fisker Karma Hybrid, the Viking motorcycle, Mustang Rocket and most recently, the Force 1 among others.
The company, Henrik Fisker Design, was founded in 2013 an industrial design house that works across numerous categories including luxury travel, automotive, architectural design, furniture, smart devices, consumer products and technology.
