Opulent Sun-Loving Yachts

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Cheoy Lee Alpha 76 Express is a Decadent Cruising Vessel

— May 2, 2012 — Luxury
The Cheoy Lee Alpha 76 Express yacht defines luxury and boasts an extensive number of windows throughout its design to allow the sun and surf to be visible above or below the deck.

When floating on the open water, one traditionally has to go down into the lower level of the ship to eat or sleep and loses the feel of being on the sea. With its 360 degree sky atrium and patented SmartGlass technology that allows for adjusting the amount of sunlight that filters in, guests will never be without light or a great view.

With a top speed of 40 knots, the powerful machine cruises seamlessly along the water thanks to a monocoque hull.

The streamlined vessel also spares no expense when it comes to its interior furnishing and boasts elaborately decadent Italian fittings, and a smartphone compatible, app-controlled interior.


Trend Themes
1. Luxury Yachts - Opportunity for companies to develop new ways to incorporate natural elements such as sunlight and ocean views into yacht designs.
2. Smartglass Technology - Potential for companies to create and integrate adjustable SmartGlass technology into various products and industries.
3. App-controlled Interiors - New disruptive innovation opportunity for companies to develop app-controlled interior technologies for various luxury vehicles and homes.
Industry Implications

2. Interior Furnishing Industry - Opportunity for the interior furnishing industry to create and supply Italian-style, opulent fittings to luxury boats and yachts.
