3D Printed And Virtually Invisible
Pegasus 88M Superyacht

International yacht designer Jozeph Forakis’ visionary Pegasus is a futuristic superyacht first conceived on a beach in Koufonissi island, Greece. "I was inspired to create a yacht as close to the sea and nature as possible, made of clouds floating above the waterline," Forakis says, "I wanted to honour nature by blending into it, becoming virtually invisible."

This desire drove Forakis to develop a true zero-emissions yacht that is "invisible both in design and in her environmental impact," says the designer.

Forakis and his team composed a symphony of selected advanced technologies to achieve unprecedented levels of sustainably, range, and structural integrity.

The 88m superyacht's construction uses robotic 3D printing to create a mesh framework integrating both hull and superstructure. Extraordinarily strong and lightweight, the structure can be produced using less energy, material, waste, space, and time.
