At $600,000 per week the 60 metre Lürssen superyacht Solemates designed by the great Espen Oeino is one of the world’s most exclusive charter craft.

It’s also one of the most cutting edge thanks to a new system that lets guests control various functions via an iPad.

Don’t happen to own one? Not a problem – the captain hands each guest their own iPad when they step aboard.
