  • One of the most satisfying projects that I am pursuing on this TH-cam channel is following the construction of two of ICON's incredible superyachts under construction. In this video I meet on of yachting's most famous designers; Tim Heywood, and I talk to him about what makes the 280 so very special.

    I love Tim Heywood design. I found that out after noticing that most of the Yachts that I like carries his signature. Just amazing how harmonic the design is! I only saw one interior created by Tim Heywood, and I also liked. But, the most interesting interior creation comes out of Terence Disdale. He creates a beach house over the water, which is not very common when you see some mohogany in excess or crystal, silver and gold. Yachts are suppose to be a place to relax and not a copy of your pallace or gigantic house, whereever it is located. But, they own it, they are paying for it, so.. my opinion is just mine. I only have a 19ft boat, so, It will only take me some couple of centuries in order to afford one ICON 280ft. Thank you for always makes us informed and updated! Love you channel!

    Cut from the same cloth as Gordon Murray perhaps? Great design needs great designers! Hearing Tim talk about how adding the pool extension, really brings her lines down to a very classy design!

    Really enjoyed seeing the boat stripped down to the metal, it's rare enough to see on smaller boats and much less on a superyacht. Would love to see you cover the actual building processes involved in future videos.

    • @orangelion03
      @orangelion03 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      They must grind off at least a ton of weld seam material, but then add another ton of filler to smooth it out. Icon and other builders are gifted at sculpting and finishing those smooth lines.

    Amazing to see a yard with such confidence in their product that they are willing to build such a large yacht on speculation, and have Tim Heywood design it! Thanks for making the effort to catch up with Tim on site and sharing.
    One question for you; Assuming you don't have the CA, how would it work out for you from a brokerage perspective if someone now approaches ICON and says "I saw your yacht ICON 280 on Yachts for Sale and I want to buy it"?

    Hi David, I really enjoy your channel it's very informative. I would like to know what are the top upgrades that new owners tend to change (or wish to change) for brokered yachts. Is it a new gym, beach club, cinema room, helipad, etc? I think this info would be of interest for all parties involved.

    I find it particularly notable that the windows are all vertical with overhang removing the heating factor that the sun has on sloping glass. Obviously those on the bridge will feel less stress and other advantages of non sloping windows.

      @@JB-so5gr thanks for getting back to me. I did not expect it would be completed so soon. The pricing is in the range I would expect for such an amazing yacht with the level of credentials of the designer and builder.
      I am launching a new business and when I saw the video I could not help to think such a yacht would be the perfect reward for all the hard work I expect to be doing for the next several years. But I think the timing will be off for me to think this yacht could be that reward.
      But I definitely am looking forward to watching the evolution of this project on the channel. Keep the videos coming.
