"Glass," says star designer Espen Øino, "is one of the most important materials in yacht construction today. The limits of what is possible are constantly being pushed."
Another topic that also fascinated us during magazine production was the discussion on the subject of "furnishings" with three interior experts during our German Superyacht Conference. What Kai Dittmar, Felix Dölker and Alexander Höfling had to say there gave us a deep insight into the most important and most expensive part of a yacht. In the current issue of BOOTE EXCLUSIV, you can read about the effort required to retrofit a cold climate chamber on board and why real gold can already pass as an inexpensive material on some formats.
Have fun with this issue!
