Getaway Vehicle

Perfect for the nautical and aeronautical Bond Villain. [Link]

Yelken Octuri's no stranger to designing fantastic space aircraft or even insectoid-like flying yachts, but this time the designer's gone and outdone every other creation he's ever done before with his new flying yacht for three Masqat Airways corporate executive princes. Who said sails were out of style?

Powered by a Nissen & Brasseur engine with four dual propellers, the unnamed flying yacht can hit speeds of 242 miles per hour when its four enormous sails are lowered to become wings in plane mode. Imaginative as Octuri's flying yacht is, its beauty isn't only skin deep - it has just enough space to satisfy those looking for a weekend escape.

There are two main decks (perfect for tanning) and inside the yacht is a kitchen (for preparing all that seafood you will catch), a main room, presumably with a bed (for canoodling with those hot islanders), a toilet (because dumping into the sea is gross and generally frowned upon) and a storage room (scuba gear needs to go somewhere!). From the looks of it, the flying yachts main room windows are "level" and "just above the boat's waterline" making good times in the ship/plane feel even more aquatic.

At a first glance, you'd probably think this flying yacht is all CGI and and yet another concept render, but rest assured, unlike Octuri's other creations, this flying yacht is real and was manufactured by the Aerocoché plant in France. We've yet to see real photos of this thing out in the open sea and skies, but we're sure they'll surface soon enough.
