Vela Concept Yacht
The latest concept by award-winning Italian designer Gianmarco Cardia, the Vela combines the romance of sail-powered travel with a practical hybrid propulsion system. DynaRig masts hold the 1,850 square meters of sails, with one section doubling as an outdoor movie theater. The 80-foot vessel also has a spacious owners suite, four guest cabins, a spa, a water-level beach club with bar, and a gym. The hull has yet to be engineered, but a top speed of 21 knots is likely possible with the sails and hybrid system working together.
