Quotes

“There’s the pleasure derived from beauty – beautiful things alone can save us. There’s no explicit functionality which can show the way to project design related decision making. What moves everything is passion for beauty. This is the sexiest thing about the boat taken as an object which really makes it very different to houses, paintings, or other forms of art. The chance to put your boat object you have fallen in love with on show for all to see. It’s a near perverted aspect of wanting to share your very own passion with someone else. Boats can be shown off anywhere. And moreover you sleep inside her, you cruise in beautiful places with her and having style you probably enjoy better interiors than you have at home. ” – Dan Lenard from Nuvolari – Lenard, a large, multi-award winning Italian yacht design firm.

“Since yacht design is highly competitive, you could be forgiven for thinking that there might be some animosity between designers. But that notion is far from reality. I am blessed with being able to count on some of the world’s leading designers as close friends, among them Tim Heywood, with whom we have collaborated on various large motor yacht projects, including the award winners Pelorus, Ice and Kogo.” – “Creatively, Tim is afraid of nothing and will often conceptualise ideas that bewilder shipyards.” – Terence Disdale speaking of Tim Heywood, the designer of this yacht.
