The luxury 425ft vessel - complete with full glass decks, a spa and a pool - has been sketched out by Turkish yacht designer Aras Kazar. The boat is a trimaran, as it has three hulls, and comes equipped with electric and hydrofoil technology, giving it a top speed of 32 knots. Kazar has called his creation Wakinyan, a Native American Lakota people word for thunder. He said: 'The word is usually translated as "Thunder Spirits", "Thunder Beings", or "Thunder Birds".' The luxury 425ft vessel has been sketched out by Turkish yacht designer Aras Kazar Describing the yacht, Kazar said: 'This floating bird on the water is 130 metres long. I followed my sleek line on this project' The designer said the Wakinyan is at a 'concept level' but could go into production if an investor is found. There is currently no estimated price for the model. Describing the yacht, Kazar said: 'This floating bird on the water is 130 metres long. I followed my sleek line on this project. 'The full glass decks provide almost 360 views with lots of natural light for the interior. 'The interior design follows the soft, gentle, cloudy feeling of the exterior. Wakinyan is designed to make you feel calm and relaxed, either when you are enjoying it from the inside or just looking at it from outside.' The yacht also houses five 'soft, comfy, cloudy' bedrooms and one master bedroom. Kazar said: 'The full glass decks provide almost 360 views with lots of natural light for the interior' Kazar added: 'The interior design follows the soft, gentle, cloudy feeling of the exterior' Wakinyan is the latest project from Aras Kazar, who specialises in 'minimalist, futuristic and sleek' designs, and has a portfolio of superyacht concepts including Ono, a glass and metal floating villa’ superyacht, complete with solar panels on the roof, with its design inspired by Spartan helmets. In February, Jeff Bezos’ $500 million superyacht Koru, codenamed Y721, was sighted in the North Sea after leaving Rotterdam, footage posted by the organization Dutch Yachting showed. The test run of the 417ft vessel test run came months after it was originally set to be delivered to the Amazon head. It requires a 250ft support vessel equipped with a helicopter landing pad. The boat caused controversy last year after a report that Dutch officials would have to dismantle the historic Koningshaven Bridge because the 130-ft steel structure would not allow the boat and its 229-ft masts to access.
