Sci-Fi-Inspired Luxurious Superyachts

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Estrella Superyacht Sports a Unique Split-Hull Design

— July 6, 2021 — Autos
South Korean-based Yeojin Jung designed the Estrella superyacht in hopes of breaking the mold of traditional yacht configurations. The superyacht's split-hull design is highly reminiscent of the Y-Wing Fighter from the iconic Star Wars sci-fi films. However, Jung admits his direct influence came from cantilevered architecture.

While there are over 5,000 superyachts around the world, the Estrella sets itself apart from them all. Its outlandishly luxurious design is envisioned to look like the jewel of the seas. This superyacht is entered for the enjoyment of Ultra High Net Worth Individuals (UHNWIs). Its split-hull feature creates interesting divides that separate the yacht into one main component and two floater components on either side. To ensure a smooth ride, Jung states that the yacht comes with separate stabilizers on individual side-hulls.
