Cool Design. It's ok the be Jonny's -anti-image.

The hull looks very fast.

iDutchman · Oct 28, 2012, 09:39 AM

You gotta give it to us dutchies. Nice, eh?

Short moment of fame.

I hope it will still be enjoyed by the Jobs family.

daveathall · Oct 28, 2012, 09:40 AM

Looks like Noah's Ark. Looks pretty awful to me.

DoctorCrap · Oct 28, 2012, 09:42 AM

Love the iMacs...
Great place to be...

macsmurf · Oct 28, 2012, 09:44 AM

I'm sure the look will improve once they put the bow in.

nfl46 · Oct 28, 2012, 09:45 AM

I don't like the design of it. Looks outdated. I'm pretty sure the inside is tricked out, though.

tommy060289 · Oct 28, 2012, 09:47 AM

wonder if any of those imacs suffer from the useless wifi issue.

It would be amazing how quickly it would be fixed if steve was encountering an issue with it!

HoopjeEllende · Oct 28, 2012, 09:47 AM

Proud to be Dutch!

This yacht was launched 10 kilometers from my house XD
I think it is an nice little boat, But the iMacs are just a joke... Geez

BTW, this is the right video: http://youtu.be/0mUp1PP98uU

imgmkr · Oct 28, 2012, 09:47 AM

that's a mother ship!
dunno about 7 iMacs tho, 5 would have been suffice in semi-circular position imho.

I wonder if the whole of the interior is like that, because personally i wouldn't want it looking like the inside of an apple store if it were me. It wouldn't feel homely at all.

wizzerandchips · Oct 28, 2012, 09:53 AM

wonder where they will put the apple stickers that came with those imacs, what with the boat being white, they wont show up very well.

Macist · Oct 28, 2012, 09:54 AM

Bet it scratches badly.

Yeah, it looks like a floating Apple store. Inside and out.

Not my cup of tea.

fredoviola · Oct 28, 2012, 09:56 AM

Hope those iMacs are running Mountain Lion! 2 minute lag on a ship could spell disaster.

itsmemuffins · 10:51 AM

Ugliest yacht ever. I should know, I've seen a few yachts in my time.

No doubt the widow jobs will sell it ASAP.

What is not evident, until you're very close to the ship, is that the entire hull is plastered with Apple stickers so it appears white.

IJ Reilly · Oct 28, 2012, 10:02 AM

Tim Cook thinks it's amazing, fantastic and incredible.

flopticalcube · Oct 28, 2012, 10:04 AM

Looks a bit like a barge to me. Is it still missing the bow?

EDIT: I see it now in the video. Looks a little bit better. Meh. Looks like an Apple Store but it is unique.
