“An avid yachtsman,” Frank Gehry has designed his first yacht. As Esquire reports, the traditional larch wood sailboat boasts titanium and red accents with windows clad in warped lattice work. “Foggy,” as it’s named (an acronym for Frank Owen Gehry), was designed for Gehry’s friend and developer Richard Cohen. Gehry collaborated with naval architect Germán Frers, who was charged with keeping Gehry’s design practical. “Don’t let me go too crazy,” Gehry told Frers. “The boat has to work.”
