Venus departing Gibraltar

Venus departing Gibraltar

After a season in the Caribbean, the famous motor yacht Venus has returned to the waters of the Mediterranean as she is seen here departing the port of Gibraltar. Built by Feadship in 2011, Venus’ particular exterior was the brainchild of her late owner. Designer Philippe Starck used a great amount of glass in the design of the vessel which is clearly visible here as a strip of head-height windows stretch over half of the length of the main deck. The manufacturing firm behind her special glass design is Sedak. Another feature that is visible in this image is Venus’ Jacuzzi on her foredeck.
