Marty Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Article.. As boat accessories go, a bespoke supercar is probably the most extravagant. But that's exactly what millionaire buyers of the £17m Strand Craft SC122 will get. Beating the Bugatti Veyron hands down for exclusivity, the supercar has 880bhp from its twin-turbo V12 engine and a claimed top speed of 234mph. Only six will be built, each capable of hitting 60mph from rest in 3.2 seconds. Designed by Eduard Gray, the car is so synonymous with the yacht that the company doesn't seem to have named it. The supercar will spend most of its time in the custom garage below deck while its owner enjoys the supreme luxury of the yacht. The SC122 is a vision of absolute splendour inside and out, kitted out with 52-inch televisions and a Bang & Olufsen surround sound system in every room. There are four double bedrooms, too. Its power dwarfs that of the accompanying supercar. Twin Rolls-Royce engines each pump out over 4,000bhp, and there's an optional 5,000bhp booster if the standard amount just won't do. That power enables the yacht to reach 55 knots - though at just over 60mph, it's actually quite sluggish compared to the car. http://l.yimg.com/eur.yimg.com/ng/sh/carenthu/20100609/11/66940755-luxury-yacht-comes-free-custom-supercar.jpg http://l.yimg.com/eur.yimg.com/ng/sh/carenthu/20100609/11/196589683-luxury-yacht-comes-free-custom-supercar.jpg http://l.yimg.com/eur.yimg.com/ng/sh/carenthu/20100609/11/3898085855-luxury-yacht-comes-free-custom-supercar.jpg http://l.yimg.com/eur.yimg.com/ng/sh/carenthu/20100609/11/3723997484-luxury-yacht-comes-free-custom-supercar.jpg http://l.yimg.com/eur.yimg.com/ng/sh/carenthu/20100609/11/2524599678-luxury-yacht-comes-free-custom-supercar.jpg http://l.yimg.com/eur.yimg.com/ng/sh/carenthu/20100609/11/3008138643-luxury-yacht-comes-free-custom-supercar.jpg http://l.yimg.com/eur.yimg.com/ng/sh/carenthu/20100609/11/1798988226-luxury-yacht-comes-free-custom-supercar.jpg http://l.yimg.com/eur.yimg.com/ng/sh/carenthu/20100609/11/2559490972-luxury-yacht-comes-free-custom-supercar.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animal Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 If I'm going to borrow £17m, I certainly wouldn't give it to you. Borrow it yourself. [edit] Nice boat though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attero Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 I think I finally have an aim in life... If only I won that £54m lottery jackpot a while back. That could be one of the most fantastic creations ever made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Sponsor you for £17million? Don't be daft. No Supra costs that much to build, unless it's MattH's Fantastic looking boat, though. EDIT: Whack whack oops! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attero Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Concept. This article points out that it is £100m. http://www.carenthusiast.com/news/article/4752/-/2010-Gray+Design-Strand+Craft+SC122/buy+a+super+yacht+to+get+the+supercar.html But this article (same as Marty pulled off) says £17m. http://uk.cars.yahoo.com/09062010/36/luxury-yacht-comes-free-custom-supercar-0.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abz Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Was going to say, £17 million is a bit cheap as most standard"ish" yacht's are like £5 million, ask Ewen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr lover Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 but would you be happy............ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewen Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Re the boat...Lbm said it, I will too... Total fantasy. Whilst a lovely shape, its totally impractical. Would never get approval from any certifying bodies, would be impossible to live with and a nightmare to crew and operate safely. The guys behind this attractive nonsense know all this of course, and as it stands, its a good old taster for what they claim to be able to do. Good luck to them, but I reckon it will stay virtual.

I'd also be worried about sliding off the top whilst sun bathing, as the mrs turns her about a bit sharpish. And where's the goddamn roof-top barbecue 'n' hot tub combo?
