This Is Steve Jobs’s Yacht


Venus, the incredible luxury yacht Steve Jobs had been designing up until his death a little over a year ago, seems to havemade its first apperance as a finished productin the city of Aalsmeer in the Netherlands. Unsurprisingly, its design is breathtaking.

Reportedly designed in a joint effort between Jobs himself and Philippe Starck, the stunning ship first showed up on the blog One More Thing, which posted some stills as well as a few other details. The ship is about 70m to 80m long, for instance, and made entirely of aluminium, which makes it particularly light. And if you had any doubt this is Steve Jobs’s yacht, there are seven 27-inch iMacs in the wheelhouse.

According to One More Thing’s sources, the Jobs family will be present for the yacht’s christening ceremony proper, though it’s unknown whether or not they intend to use it or what its ultimate fate may be. Regardless of what may happen to her, she sure is a beauty. It’s certainly a shame Steve Jobs never got the chance to see her finished. [One More Thing via The Verge]
