Lexus LY 650 luxury yacht powers through the ocean

The Lexus LY 650 sports yacht is being hailed as the first production maritime expression of its L-finesse design language. It continues the brand’s involvement in non-automotive luxury lifestyle products. Do we like it? Yes we do!

The LY 650 yacht picks up where the Lexus Sport Yacht Concept left off. Several key features from the 42-foot Sport Yacht concept have made their way onto the LY 650, including the pronounced bow, curved deck accents and accentuated aft hips.
