Jaw-dropping plans for a shark inspired £826 million ($A1.5 billion) superyacht fit for a king have been unveiled.

The flashy floater — called ‘Outrageous’ — is set to be so huge passengers will need a golf cart to explore its lavish confines.

It’s the brainchild of Italian design studio Lazzarini, and its design is inspired by a hammerhead shark, The Sun reports.

The windows of the ship will pay homage to this and will represent teeth and gills.

The 322m long boat boasts a huge top deck which overhangs the bow, mimicking the distinctive eye and nostrils characteristics of its sea life inspiration.

The vessel is also painted in a sharklike grey for added effect.

A convenient heliport sits aboard the ship for its A list guests and it can accommodate not one but two helicopters.

The heliport can also be retracted to expose the yacht’s leafy interior.

Given the length of the vessel, owners can employ a golf buggy to travel from end to end without having to exert themselves.

Other features include five swimming pools, solar panels, ample deck space for lounging and room for several tenders at the stern.

“At this stage the Outrageous is just a concept, however, an estimation in production cost for a client should be around £860 million,” Lazzarini said.

The design studio is known for its quirky concepts, which have included a yacht fused with two blimps, and a £6.8 billion ($A12b) turtle-shaped floating city.

If it’s ever built the turtle would become the largest floating structure ever seen.

The vessel would be 550m long and 610m at its widest point.

At its peak, it could host 60,000 guests, making it effectively a floating city.

It would include hotels, shopping centres, parks, as well as ship and aircraft ports, according to Lazzarini.

They hope the ambitious scheme will become a reality following an NFT-related crowd-funding project.
