The Kormaran convertible luxury boat can take 4 different shapes: The coolest boat, ever?

Kormaran (4)

Kormaran in trimaran mode has three separate hulls for added stability.

High stability mode:-

Trimaran mode:

Press a button and the hydraulic arms lower the central hull and thus make the Kormaran into a trimaran. At over 3.5-metres in width, the vessel is now wider than a medium sized city bus. Even in this configuration, the Kormaran can still go fast, but the total range is affected because of the increased drag fuel consumption. That said, the boat is now even more stable than before. However, the most suave mode of this boat becomes visible when it’s not in motion.

Yes, it’s got swing-wing doors like a Lamborghini. You can also see the passenger seat behind the driver’s.

The best party trick of this mode is that the front of the boat can be made into a sun-bathing deck. Also, this boat has the best set of doors on any boat, probably. They are similar to the ones found on some supercars and swing upwards, being hinged to the rear of the boat. The front of the Kormaran houses foldable teak wood panels which can be opened up and form the perfect surface to relax on, or a platform from which you can dive into the water for some swimming. This mode is called the Bathing mode and is for the times when the Kormaran is anchored in one place, obviously.

This boat uses the colour turquoise for most of its lighting and displays.

Most of the lighting on and in this boat, uses the colour turquoise. There are even thin lighting strips that use turquoise illumination and make the Kormaran visible at night. Apart from that, there are also some headlights and position indicator lights. These lights are mounted on the left and right side of the boat, and use red and green lights, respectively. These position lights are meant to alert other sailors to the Kormaran’s direction of travel. It also has underbelly illumination, perhaps for fishes that are afraid of the dark.

The cockpit of the Kormaran doesn’t look very space age.

Loads of carbon-fibre and expensive teak wood adorn the Kormaran.

So, do you want a Kormaran for yourself? Well, there is one catch, though. The Kormaran isn’t yet production ready and whenever it does come on sale, you can bet that it wouldn’t be a bargain. The Austrian company has apparently invested millions of euros behind this beautiful project and they would likely demand a huge premium for one of these. If the Kormaran convertible luxury boat does become available, we hope many buy it and make our waterways look that much better to look at.
