Notorious Numptia

Yacht design has always been an interest of mine.  If I ever fell into residential design I would love to design these amazing water getaway homes!

I recently read about the featured Numptia yacht on thecoolhunter.net (best website EVER!) and was fascinated by its interiors.  It's modern and classic all rolled into one with immaculate attention to detail.  

  
The Numptia took three years to construct and is owned by an unnamed Italian-born American businessman.  It includes 12 guest rooms, master suite, VIP suite, 3 queen size cabins, one twin cabin, common areas, spa deck, and crew accommodations.








All finishes, furnishings, EVERYTHING is custom ordered and made for this client's yacht.  As stated in The Cool Hunter, "Every piece of furniture, every surface treatment, every doorknob and hinge was custom-designed for Numptia. Silk carpets woven in Tibet, solid marble in the steam bath, quartz floors in the galley, and an oval dining table covered in riveted alpaca nickel silver are just a few examples."

This yacht is rumored to be for sale for $85 million and can be rented for $646,000/week!  YIKES! :-O
