Infinitas is a 300 foot yacht concept inspired from the symbol of infinity which has been comprehensively expressed theoretically within the elevation of the yacht. This closed loop eternity symbol is featuring two major elements, the carving out stern and the mid section elliptical shaped deck constructs. The seamlessly flow of the yacht’s superstructure within itself is the outcome of the central structural spine that holds the loop together. The realignment of infinitas’ traditional functional area is an additional benefit of this concept which contains separate main deck, dining room and living room. A massive pool deck is one of the most amazing attractions for the guests that separate the forward moving dining room.
The new deck position allows direct access to the kitchen and dining room and offers additional activities combining with the salon/ living room. The pool deck can be traversed in three ways. First one is a direct outside walkway or bridge which divides the pool with an underwater opening that allows the swimmers to plummet from one side to another. Second method is a flyover which connects to the central stairs and elevator. A lower level lounge is the third option which includes glass portals into the pool. There is a helipad on the bow deck and the yacht can house 12 guests and crew.
