Porsche Design Group has announced today the signing of a design and marketing agreement with Singapore-based yacht builder, Royal Falcon Fleet. Under this agreement Porsche Design will design luxury catamarans and mega-yachts for Royal Falcon Fleet on an exclusive basis in addition to developing a marketing concept for the yachts.  

Seen above, a design sketch of a motor catamaran over 40 meters (135ft) in length represents the first collaborative project to be sold under the Royal Falcon Fleet brand. Porsche Design will design both the hull exterior and the interior of the mega yacht. Royal Falcon Fleet has engaged Kockums and Incat Crowther for the engineering and the naval architect of the project. Kockums is a subsidiary of ThyssenKrupp and is based in Sweden; it is renowned for its cutting-edge technology in the field of marine engineering. Incat Crowther is a naval architect based in Australia with decades of experience in the construction of large motor catamarans.
