Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Nimue 490 Has a Long Graceful Body That Curves with the Current

— February 26, 2014 — Autos
What might look like a lengthy tail on the Nimue 490 is the elegant elongated front of the day cruiser. Far more exaggerated in form than most watercraft, this luxury private vessel simply slices through the lake or the sea for a supremely smooth ride.

Timon Sager designed this motorboat to take a look comparable to that of his Bairim model. While the two share a similar fish-like shape, the Nimue 490 has one major difference that also separates it from just about any yacht that you will have witnessed. Inspired by the Protei, this concept conveyance has a nose that curves. With three points of particular flexibility, the Nimue 490's front can help you navigate narrows for a swift journey topping at 77km/h.
Trend Themes
1. Long-graceful-body Yachts - Opportunity to innovate luxury yachts with exaggerated, elegant body designs for smoother rides and increased speed.
2. Curved-nose Vessels - Opportunity to design boats with curved front ends for improved navigability in narrow waterways.
3. Fish-like Motorboats - Opportunity to incorporate fish-shaped designs into motorboat concepts for unique and stylish aesthetics.
Industry Implications
1. Luxury Yachts - The luxury yacht industry can use exaggerated, long and graceful body designs to appeal to high-end customers and provide a smoother ride than traditional yacht designs.
2. Boat Manufacturing - Boat manufacturers can create unique curved nose designs for small boats and other conveyances to improve navigability and increase speed.
3. Private Motorboat Industry - Incorporating fish-shaped designs or other unique aesthetics into motorboat concepts may attract younger and style-conscious customers while still delivering quality performance.
