Zeydon builds the BMW of yachts
Filed under: Etc., Euro, BMW, Toys, Lifestyle
Much like its Porsche Design counterpart, there isn’t really anything BMW DesignWorks won’t try to make better, from an espresso machine to a custom interior for a Boeing 787 Dreamliner. So it was only a matter of time before they put pen to paper and created a yacht, this particular example being a 60-foot offshore performance sailboat for the Zeydon boatyard of Belgium.
Meant, as with any BMW, to be just almost everything to almost everyone, the yacht, christened “WYSIWYG,” is a regatta-oriented sailer as fast as it is luxurious. And no, your eyes don’t deceive you: it’s blue. Why? Because according to the heads of Zeydon, “it perfectly communicates the characteristics that determine our corporate identity: progressiveness, originality, courage, strict authenticity and infinite emotion.” And it’s got wooden racing stripes.
