Eco-friendly super-yacht? Surely you jest: "99.9% of superyachts are not environmentally friendly," concedes Alev Karagulle of Burgess Yachts. "They're gas-guzzling machines." But this year, the Monaco Yacht Show, bless its oversized and elitist heart, will crown one eco-yacht pioneer "the greenest superyacht," based on criteria such as building materials and CO2 emissions. Too bad Alastair Callender's not eligible. At last year's show, he wowed attendees with his Soliloquy design concept, a zero-emissions 190-foot supergreen superyacht powered by renewable and hybrid energy. -- SUZY EVANS
