Superyacht Venus at anchor off Sint Maarten

Venus in Sint Maarten

When launched, the 78 metre Feadship Venus, built for the late Steve Jobs, left the traditional superyacht industry gasping for air. Designed by one of the most influential designers in the world, Philippe Starck, Venus is designed to a minimum. In an interview with SuperYachtTimes.com, Philippe said: "We always wanted less and less.. Venus was about the elegance of minimum". About the interior, he commented " It is the minimum of everything. There is not a single useless item inside".
