Yelken Octuri's Flying Yacht is very different from any conventional yacht. As the name suggests, this vessel can transform into a sleek jetplane with the push of a button. This is the kind of machine that James Bond would prefer to use.
The yacht has already been exhibited at Paris' Air and Space Museum. The Flying Yacht is 46 meters long and consists of four masts reaching a height of 40 meters, which guide the yacht on the water through a double-jack system. There are also plush bedrooms, a kitchen, a toilet and a luxurious bathroom onboard.
