The Dolphin speed boat designed by Yu Hiraoka is inspired by nature. It mimics the curves, flippers and tail of a dolphin.
The dolphin is certainly a solid choice to look at for inspiration when creating a boat. It is known for its incredible speed, strength and intelligence. Not to mention, humans have categorized it among their favorite animals.
This dolphin speed boat is optimally designed in order to allow water to efficiently flow from the rounded bow to the tapered tail-like stern. This will reduce drag, which will allow this dolphin to glide quickly over the water.
There is no telling how this boat would hold up against other speed boats as it is just a concept, but it certainly looks very appealing.
