The Superyacht Book
From the same publishing company that brought out the massively expensive Pele book comes Superyacht a massive coffee table book devoted to megayachts. The book, which is limited to 1,000 copies includes archive photography and newly commissioned photography of the greatest boats on the water today. The book has 648 full-color pages, gatefolds and is bound in silver Italian silk. Eve more intriguingly, it comes in a clam-shell Lucite case that protects if from water. It sells for $3,950.

Rediculous, but kinda neat in a way :). Maybe a little cheezy though, and I don't think that's what book collectors are going for. But then again, maybe yacht buyers will like this: they've already spent exorbitant sums of money on their yachts, might as well get one hell of a coffee table book for their boats.

Pardon my criticism, I wanted to set it straight: it's a cool idea and
it looks like a cool book, but for circa $4k, I kinda expect the
world. So until they change the material of the case from Lucite to
Diamond, they don't have my admiration.

This is better than a boat show give a way brochure !
This book represents fifteen minutes of fame for the publishing world and the advertising world will have to share. It is a win, win situation as the beginning of many a journey has been captured in this splendid 648 photo filled masterpiece.For the owners of the book it may be hope and dreams that have come true or wishes still in the stars.In return for your time at looking at interiors and exteriors, you are rewarded with the opportunity to see many first time photos of private areas where care and craftsmanship is second nature to finishing the yacht before she is taken to the open seas. A glimpse into the custom made, designed to order, world of our heroes. The American CEO, The professional ball player, The retired couple who put away "enough" to play thru the rough. Yes, "The Superyacht"' reminds us that the American dream is still available for the a sticker price and if we dare to dream they may even let us hold the box. Tonni/OKC
