That yacht is beyond hideous. It seriously makes my eyes bleed.

The Koons designed M/V Guilty is so bizarre, I couldn't resist writing a blog post some time ago. The crazy exterior is loosely based on a WW1 camouflage design.
The interior is incredible.
"Extreme escape" accommodations indeed!

It looks like a Reebok circa 1987

hahaha that's so it, Comicgeek! On a related note how hilarious would it be to see one inspired by a Fresh Prince outfit?!

Besides that paintjob, the lines of that yacht are seriously ugly - as it it were designed by Lego.

It does have quite the Lego look.
