Quite possibly one of the ugliest yachts ever made.

I first thought that the title "ugliest yacht in the world" is not so easy to give. Then I looked at the photos. Ugh. The boat looks like a floating tank, like a warship with sails on it. Even the manufacturer Nobiskrug does not manage to shoot appealing photos of this monstrosity. https://www.nobiskrug.com/de/flotte/sailing-yacht-a/

Well it's German made and owned by (Belo)Russian oligarch. It probably has concealed missile launcher.

Wow you weren't exaggerating. I wonder if getting a big name designer to design your product increases the chance of it being hella ugly, because when anyone tries to say "that's hella ugly" people just say "but Big Name designed it; it must be good!".

Kind of like George Lucas and the Star Wars prequels.
