Sinot's 120-meter superyacht gets back to "Nature"

Dutch yacht design firm Sinot recently unveiled its 120-meter (394-ft) concept yacht during the Monaco Yacht Show 2017. Dubbed Nature, the superyacht is designed to push the boundaries of contemporary yacht design by combining a central focus around nature with luxury and innovation.

Compared to petrol outboards, the Yanmar is lighter, smoother, more compact, has double the engine life, and offers much better fuel consumption and running costs. It produces less toxic emissions, has more torque much lower in the rev range and that's before you consider the safety and ready availability of diesel fuel.
