VENUS yacht
STEVE JOBS' superyacht
The Venus
yacht was designed by Steve Jobs and the famous
designer Philippe Starck. He once told Philippe Starck,
“Every year, we go on vacation on my friend Larry
Ellison’s boat. And
every year, I say to myself, I too should have a boat
built. But I don’t do it. Two years ago, I decided I was
going to go for it. I looked at everything, asked
everyone, and came to the conclusion that only one
person can do it: you.” Jobs and Philippe Starck worked on the yacht for six
years, starting even before the diagnosis of his
terminal illness. He intended the vessel to be his
swan-song, after his terminal health problem was brought
to light.
Yacht Venus represents
many of the traits of the Apple engineering marvels. She
has a stream-lined hull that replicates the visual
effect of the Apple gadgetries. The mastless
motoryacht Venus is indeed an inventor’s masterpiece,
with her antennae and domes hidden within an
architectural statement -- a world's first. The Venus
yacht also boasted 40-foot floor-to-ceiling windows
and an unprecedented amount of glass made by the chief
designer of the Apple Stores. Steve Jobs patented an
iPhone-like device to control his enormous yacht--the
captain uses a 27-inch iMacs to navigate the 250-feet
yacht.
Yacht Venus is in the list of 100 biggest
superyachts in
the world. She is faster and lighter than a typical
yacht because she was made out of aluminum. The
yacht also boasts a huge sun deck with built-in jacuzzi
and an all-glass cabin. Venus was completed one year
after Steve Job died in 2011. Jobs’ family was so
impressed with their $140 million Venus superyacht that
they had gifted an iPod Shuffle with a thank-you note to
each of the hundreds of crew members who helped build
it.
