French design studio, MUB-Mahjoub El Mahmoudi, has proudly presented their latest super-fast 102m mega yacht Calibre concept - a proper combination of speed and comfort. Luxury motor yacht Calibre concept is designed to reach a maximum speed of 39 knots due to its triple MTU 20V 8000 M71L diesel engines, each delivering no less than 12,203 hp.
With a black and grey paint job, edgy exterior lines and set atop a swift trimaran hull, the Calibre 102m is a brutal yacht concept.
According to the designer, the exterior design is inspired by the taper of a bullet "fitting for the arsenal of any bad guy" yet she's also sleek and sexy, intended to stand out from the parade of "wedding cake" yachts in a harbor.
The sleek and elegant superyacht Calibre concept features several exterior living areas, including a jacuzzi, swimming pools and a sundeck, as well as a large screen at the back of the vessel on the main deck. The recreational areas facilitate a nightclub, a fully equipped spa, a gymnasium and a large aquarium. Moreover, the Beach Club hosts a submarine and a dock for JetLev jet packs, Jet Skis and sea sleds.
While the 102-meter superyacht has the looks of a movie villain's prime choice of water transportation, she is actually quite realistic for a wild concept. The Calibre 102m is based on the proven hull platform of the next-generation Austal trimaran. The first of these new Austal trimarans, hull No 270, was purchased for $50 million by Condor to serve as a fast ferry.
"Every summer we used to go to spend our family holidays in Morocco, my country of origin. We started in Paris, and then drove through France and part of Spain to the port of Algeciras, where there were many types of boats," Mahjoub El Mahmoudi said. "I remember that I was instantly fascinated by the fast ferries, particularly by their lines and their speed. I could never hide how excited I was when I went on board it was a real adventure for me, every time".
This fascination with fast ferries has translated into the Calibre 102m to not only being speedy, but also extremely comfortable and stable in rough seas, able to handle a swell of five meters or more. We, for one, cannot wait to see it appear in a high-speed chase scene in a Hollywood blockbuster.
