The Next Presidential Yacht

This $17½ million yacht that comes with its own supercar (but be quick, there are only going to be 6 of them)

As far as freebies go, a luxury supercar has got to be near the top of the list. But if you're already forking out $17-1/2 million for a 122 ft. state-of-the-art super-yacht, you wouldn't really expect anything less. This ultimate 'buy one, get one free' offer has recently gone on the market attracting attention from billionaires all over the world.



Double the fun: The incredible super-yacht comes with its own supercar which can be stored on board

The luxury yacht has a plush Art Deco interior, boasts 4 large double state rooms, a reception area, salon, 52" LED TVs and state-of-the art sound systems in every room - all of which can be personalised. The ship can reach top speeds of 43 knots, with its twin MTU 16V000 engine, and the ability to achieve 55 knots with optional Rolls Royce KaMeWa boosters offering a staggering 14,000 hp. The supercar is powered by a 880 hp twin turbo V12 engine, has a top speed of 233 mph.

You can park your new car on board in its very own garage, located at the stern of the ship. Kurt Strand, founder of the Swedish company Strand Craft, said they had built the boat and car for the 'very wealthy'. He said: 'We have had a lot of interest from all over the world, specifically the Middle East . It was designed for luxury and people who want the best. 'The custom-made supercar is the best feature, both the boat and the car are very high performance and the boat is very fast. 'It is very unique as we are only making 6, so it's exclusive. It has a very futuristic design and nothing like this has ever been made before. It even has bulletproof windows.'

Crashing through the waves the yacht can hit speeds of up to 43 knots

Mr Strand said that they would sell the duo on a first come, first served basis. 'We have already 5 people interested and we will have meetings with them next week, it's a very expensive boat to produce, it will be the most exclusive in the world. I am very proud of it.'
