Hawley F140 Racing Yacht by Evan Orensten
The Hawley F140 Racing Yacht looks like a cross between a dolphin and stingray. With a smooth finish and rounded corners, it looks like it might easily roll over taking its crew with it. However, a hydraulically tilting keel acts as a counterbalance when cutting around corners. Taking inspiration from high-performance sports cars, it is built for flat-water speed and will easily go 20 knots. A self-draining cockpit and sloping deck from bow to stern help drainage keeping the boat light and balanced. The "bat wings" provide added surface area for the crew and help to distribute weight while adding to the speedy looking styling.
A prototype at the moment, designer Andrew Hawley has plans to include a below deck cabin with bespoke electronics. Visit his website for more info and images.

Kor One Water Vessel
The Kor One Hydration Vessel elevates the humble water bottle to new aesthetic and functional levels. Forget Voss, Smart Water, and Jeff. Face it, we need privatized bottled water like we need more internal combustion engines on our freeways. Getting people off the bottled water habit is no small feat though. City dwellers in particular, relish the convenience of a deli-bought bottle, preferring to...

Porsche Design Studio for Fearless Yachts
Fearless Yachts of Miami Beach offer some of the sleekest, most attractive watercraft we've seen in quite some time. It's probably no accident that these speedboats—Models 28 and 68 we find most appealing—are something a worthy of Sonny Crocket or a James Bond supervillain. Designed by Porsche Design Studios, each vessel is built for speed and control and worthy of the moniker yacht (which...

Bedol Eco-Friendly Water Drop Clock
by Julie Wolfson An example of function-inspired form, the Bedol Water Clock takes the water-powered capabilities of the original and adds a new drop-shaped design. The new perky look conjures a miniature wave (or is it a fin?) in a brilliant blue color and, like the original, it tells accurate time without the need for batteries or an electrical cord. A squeeze of lemon...
