This fancy catamaran concept is designed purely to take your car out to your superyacht

For those that desperately need their Rolls-Royce Boat Tail on their actual boat. How the other half live, hey?

Published: 19 Sep 2024

Meet the Falcon Shuttle, a catamaran designed specifically to carry cars to and from superyachts. Now, that’s probably more of an issue faced by the owners of Bugattis, Rolls-Royces and Paganis... but hey, Yaris drivers are allowed to dream, too.

The Shuttle is the visual brainchild of US-based GreenJoy Studios, and it'll be debuted by Falcon Tenders (a custom superyacht tender outfit based in Southampton) at the 2024 Monaco Yacht Show. Because of course it's Monaco.

We don't have any details about the powertrain, vessel proportions or pricing of the Shuttle just yet, but Falcon has previously used diesel-hybrid setups, and, er, GreenJoy has the colour in the name, so it's reasonable to assume there's some kind of clean energy gubbins inside. Hardly going to save the world though, is it?

Still, from the renders up above we can see that it does make quite the platform for a Rolls-Royce Boat Tail. And yeah, if you've got a Boat Tail then you've probably got more than one boat already, so why not get another that's designed solely for the car?

“I am really excited by the unusual nature of the Falcon Shuttle concept,” said Mark Pascoe, founder of Falcon Tenders. “GreenJoy Studios is an innovative startup bringing fresh ideas and new thinking to the superyacht industry. This concept reinforces the Falcon Tenders brand ethos of creating individual special tenders for discerning clients.”

Anyone else worried about rust? The sea is generally quite salty after all...
