Prior to his untimely death, Steve Jobs wanted to create a yacht with designer Philippe Starck that represented a minimalist attitude while maintaining a high-tech aura. Sadly, with Jobs gone, Starck and his wife Laurene were “determined to have the project completed,” and it seems as though the yacht is complete while making its debut in Aalsmeer, The Netherlands.
One image clearly shows “de vries,” one of the two shipyards that make up the Feadship custom yacht building company, while another tells us that the yacht is christened “Venus,” the Roman goddess of love and beauty. The ship builders were each gifted an iPod shuffle with the ship’s name inscribed on the back, along with a note thanking them for their “hard work and craftsmanship.”
Jobs’s family is reportedly on-hand for the unveiling of the superyacht that One More Thing says features a lightweight aluminum exterior measuring up to 80 meters long. Another image shows six of the seven 27-inch iMacs found in the ship’s interior, reportedly designed by Philippe Starck. The backside of the iMacs are also visible in the wheelhouse in the video above.
