The future of life at sea: Yacht Island dubbed "Floating City!"
The Yacht Island comes with 11 accommodation decks, a 360-degree observation area, four helipads its own dock, several swimming pools, as much space as a cruise liner and designed to move on four platforms with thrusters to keep it stable, even in the extreme seas

Although it certainly does not fit the mould of a yacht, the design, called 'Project Utopia', was unveiled to stunned onlookers at the glitzy Monaco Yacht Show. It is able to move 'at slow speeds', stretches 65m above the sea's surface, providing visitors to the 13th floor observation deck with panoramic views. Just below, the top deck of the main accommodation and service spaces - which could house shops, bars and restaurants - would be covered by a retractable canopy.
