ith just one look at this sleek black concept superyacht
by UK-based Turkish designer Timur Bozca, it’s hard not
to conjure up images of James Bond cruising away in it
(accompanied by a beautiful, bikinied babe, of course) after leaving
one of his villains such as Blofeld or Dominic Greene in the dust.

fueled by a staggering 183,000 liter fuel capacity. Cruising speed is
around 20 knots, with a top speed of 28. The hull is made of reinforced
steel and the superstructure is constructed of sleek black aluminum.
An on-board water tank ensures that the yacht leaves port with a
supply of 38,600 liters of fresh water.

and curves.”
Now, let’s talk luxury. The Black Swan can accommodate up to

the décor a futuristic look. Bozca also thoughtfully included a helipad,
pool and multiple sunning decks.
