| ADASTRA |
The designers said: 'We have undertaken state of
the art structural analysis of all the major components in the yacht in
order to achieve the light weight required for very low fuel
consumption'
The slender hulls and streamlined exterior allow
her to travel faster in the open ocean and at 17 knots she has a 4,000
mile range so can comfortably cross both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans
at hi-speed
Extensive tank testing and radio controlled model tests in waves have been carried out to analyse stability and performance
The yacht has an integrated ship monitoring system, and can even be controlled with an Apple iPad within a 50-metre range.

The yacht has been described by Boat
International as 'one of the world's most amazing super yachts, that
could spell the future for efficient long range cruising'
Futuristic: The main deck area looks more like that on a spaceship than a boat
Great unveiling: The Adastra during its grand launch in China yesterday
Lavish: The master bedroom has all the luxury you might expect in a 5-star hotel
Opulent: The bathroom is complete with power
shower and a flushing toilet, left, while the galley has fresh running
