It is considered the yacht fastest in the world. His name is World in not Enough and is a true 45-metre jewel built in 2005 by the company Millennium Superyachts. Its engines, two Diesel 18VP185 Paxman engines of 5300 HP each and two other TF40 Lycoming turbine hydrojet engines of 4700 HP each, are capable of unleashing a total power output of 20,000 HP, with a range of no less than 3800 miles. This vessel can reach a maximum speed of 70 knotswith an average cruising speed of 45 knots. We are talking about it today because it is currently moored in Liguriaat the marina Marina Genoa of the city of the same name.
In addition to being able to visit this star-studded wonder, there is also the possibility of spending a night on board the World is not Enough. How? Just go to the site of Airbnb and ask for availability. But if the idea is to aim for savings, it is better to give up. A night in a cabin costs in fact quite 10 thousand euro. A disproportionate figure that not everyone can afford. A figure that underlines the exclusivity of a boat dedicated only to a few.
From 007 comes World is not Enough.
As published on the website of Liguria Nautica, the name of this yacht comes from the passion of the two owners, John Staluppi e John Rosattifor the famous film World is not Enough of the series of James Bond. A passion for films goes hand in hand with a passion for boats. The idea was to build a very fast boat, but without giving up on luxury, comfort and a unique design.
As it is a vehicle travelling for sea, the greatest difficulties (brilliantly overcome) in the design phase would have concerned vibrations, caused precisely by the speed of the yacht. This is why the hull was designed in a 'V' shape so that it slices through the sea like a knife through butter even in precarious conditions. In this way, stability is always assured.
