 Just when you thought superyacht designs couldn't get any more extravagant, along comes one to blow the others clean out of the water. 你正想著超級游艇已經沒法變得更奢侈了，這時一艘巨艇橫空出世讓其他同類黯然失色。  The Valkyrie Project envisages a spectacular, sleek vessel loaded with super-cool luxurious entertainment features that -- with a length of 229 meters (751 feet) -- would be the world's largest superyacht. 瓦爾基里項目預計打造一艘宏偉而狹長的游艇，裝載有超炫好話的娛樂設施—長達229米（751英尺）—并將成為世界上最大的超級游艇。 And the best part? You won't need to be a billionaire to get on board. 最妙的來了！你不需要成為億萬富翁就可以上船哦。 Valkyrie is the work of Chulhun Park, chief designer at Latvia's Latitude Yachts. 瓦爾基里號是樸哲勛的作品，他是拉脫維亞的緯度游艇公司的首席設計師。  "I was determined to design a visually unique yacht which would stand out from a fleet," Park tells us. “我決心設計一艘外觀與眾不同的獨特的游艇，”樸先生告訴我們。 The South Korean's concept includes an on-board casino, theater, art gallery and convention hall, which will all be open to the public. 這位韓國設計師的理念包括了一個船上的賭場，劇院，畫廊還有會議廳，這些都會向公眾開放。 "Most people consider superyachts to be exclusive properties of billionaires to display their wealth," he says. “大部分人都認為超級游艇是億萬富翁炫富的工具，”他說。 "However, such a hub would essentially be floating architecture utilized by the public." “然而，我的這首游艇將會成為漂浮在海上的人們的建筑。  ” If built, this whopping vessel would easily eclipse the 180 meter length of the world's current largest superyacht, Azzam -- believed to be owned by United Arab Emirates President Khalifa bin Zayed al-Nahyan. 建成后，這首超棒的船將輕易超過目前世界上最大的游艇的180米，阿扎姆號——據說由阿聯酋的總統哈里發.賓.扎伊德.阿拉汗所有。  Park came up with the idea for Valkyrie while studying for his masters degree at the Royal College of Art in London. 樸先生在在倫敦的皇家藝術學院讀碩士時想出的瓦爾基里號的靈感。 It became his thesis project, supported by Monaco-based yacht designers Palmer Johnson Yachts, which employed Park before he moved to Latitude Yachts. 這成為了他的論文課題，由摩納哥的游艇設計公司帕默爾.約翰遜游艇公司支持，后來樸先生跳槽到了緯度游艇公司。 Valkyrie is based on Palmer Johnson's copyrighted trimaran hull, a structure that Park says lessens drag while cruising at high speeds and offers greater stability. 瓦爾基里號是基于帕默爾.約翰遜版權專屬的三體船建造的，這種結構據樸先生說可以在告訴巡航時減少阻力，提供更高的穩定性。  "Below the water line is designed by Palmer Johnson Yachts and above water line is designed by Chulhun Park," the designer explains. “水面以下的部分是帕默爾.約翰遜游艇公司造的，而水上的部分是由樸哲勛設計的，”設計師們解釋道。 Valkyrie would accommodate 52 guests in 26 cabins, alongside 92 crew members in 46 cabins -- although Park adds that it could hold many more day visitors. 瓦爾基里號講設有26個客艙，可以容納52名客人，以及主艙中的92名船員—不過樸先生補充說它還可以容納更多日常來訪的游客。 The main material would be steel or aluminum hull and a carbon fiber superstructure. 船身主體材料是鋼或者鋁制，以及碳纖維超結構。 Currently, it's just a design -- but Park says he's confident it could become reality. 目前它還處在設計階段——但樸先生說他很有信心能最后把它造出來。 "There has been genuine interest in the project," he confirms. “人們對這個項目很有興趣，”他相信。 It won't be cheap though. 不過造價可低不了。 The designer estimates it'll cost $800 million to build. 設計師估計會耗資八億美元來建造。  問題 刺 猬 刺 猬 文中沒有提到瓦爾基里號的哪一點？ A.最長 B.對游客開放 C.三體船 D.環保 留言回復正確選項即可獲得amber送出的紅包啦，快來試試吧！  感謝關注 跟amber一起看世界 |
