# Fierce Predatory Yachts Vasily Klyukin's Luxury Yacht Design Concept Has a Shark-Like Shape By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2014-06-17 | Luxury Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-yacht-design References: [luxuo](http://www.luxuo.com/yachting/luxury-yachts-by-vasily-klyukin.html) & [vasilyklyukin](http://www.vasilyklyukin.com/yachts/) It's pretty hard to miss a goregeous luxury yacht design when it sails past you, but this [red shark-inspired superyacht concept](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/custombuilt-superyacht) by Vasily Klyukin would be one to make you stop and stare at it on the water. The 'Red Shark' is one of [six new superyacht concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superyacht-contigo) from the Russian entrepreneur, featuring a design that borrows elements from one of the most deadly water predators. The whole boat itself is quite shark-like, although the yacht would be painted a vibrant red hue. The body of the yacht is quite smooth, although there are some pretty [fierce looking fins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cooler-master-shark-x) on the superyacht design. The 75-meter long boat has a four-tiered deck and an onboard helicopter pad. Klyukin jokes that "If you see the yacht over 50 meters, you can be sure it’s owned by a business shark." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.6/10 - Popularity: 93% | Activity: 97% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/luxury) > [Ultra Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/ultraluxury) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Shark-inspired Luxury Yachts:** Designing luxury yachts with shark-like features to attract attention and create a unique cruising experience. - **Vibrant Colored Yachts:** Using vibrant colors, such as red, to make luxury yachts stand out from traditional designs and create a bold statement on the water. - **Fierce Fin Designs:** Incorporating fierce and innovative fin designs on luxury yachts to enhance their visual appeal and evoke a sense of power and speed. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Yacht Manufacturing:** Opportunity for yacht manufacturers to explore shark-inspired designs and incorporate them into their luxury yacht catalog. - **Luxury Travel and Leisure:** Disruptive innovation opportunity to offer shark-inspired luxury yacht experiences to high-end travelers seeking unique and adventurous vacations. - **Design and Architecture:** Opportunity for designers and architects to push boundaries by creating bold and creative yacht designs, incorporating vibrant colors and innovative fin structures. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Tech-Packed Yacht Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hyper-concept-yacht.md) - [Mono-Hulled Yacht Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shadowcat-shadowolf.md) - [Billion-Dollar Yacht Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gquest-goliath-series-gigayacht.md) - [Quad-Deck Vehicle Brand Yachts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vnz-lamborghini-mega-yacht-88m.md) - [Haute Hydrofoil Superyachts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plectrum-superyacht.md) - [Hydrodynamic Avian-Inspired Yachts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wakinyan-catamaran-yacht.md) - [Hybrid Propulsion Yacht Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fluyt-yacht-concept.md) - [Red-Accented Yacht Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alia-57-yacht.md) - [Hyper-Luxury Submersible Superyachts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/migaloo-m5-superyacht.md)
