Wanted: Spartacus inspires megayacht vision

If you view it from above, then there’s a clear link to the design you might expect for a yacht, a gentle curve to the triangular shape that culminates in a beach deck stern. That’s really where any similarities end though, because it’s almost a full 90º line from the bow to the rear, giving the yacht the impression that it has risen out of the water like a submarine. Kazar describes it as an unknown object hovering above the horizon, as though it’s some sort of UFO, though there was nothing alien about his actual inspiration.

“My inspiration came from the Spartan warrior helmet (as seen in The 300 Spartans, King Leonadis’ helmet) which represents the strength, durability and, most importantly, the sleekness,” he told us. “All you need to do is stand in front of this yacht and look at it, you will simply see the inspiration right there on the bow with a touch of gold.”
