The naval architecture was developed in-house with the so-called 'Atlantic bow' creating a fine entry point. A four times winner at the Boat International Design & Innovation Awards: : best interior design motor yacht 500 GT and above, best exterior styling motor yachts 60 m and above, best general arrangement & deck design and best lifestyle feature design. Her moodier interior, beautifully designed by British Designer Harrison Eidsgaard has left us truly blown away. The forward part of the deck has been created to be a family space that includes a library and cosy reading nook on starboard and a large observation lounge forward with curved floor-to-ceiling windows offering immaculate views of the outdoor seating area. The pièce de résistance, is the sundeck, a place created to spend the entire day. The centrepiece is the eight metre by 2.5 metre pool containing 22 tonnes of fresh water 108 warmed via waste heat recovery. M/Y ELANDESS is a feast for the eyes, with a beautiful interior where every detail has been 6 taken into consideration by the designer.
Mount Fuji (日本, Fujisan), Japan's highest peak at 3,776 meters (12,389 ft), is a dormant stratovolcano (last erupted in 1707) and a designated UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site. It is considered a sacred site for Shintoists, who believe the peak is sacred to the goddess Sengen-Sama The Name "Fuji" * Fujisan (富士山): While often called "Fujiyama" in the West, the Japanese refer to it as "Fujisan". Both "san" and "yama" mean mountain. * Obscure Origins: The exact origin of the name "Fuji" is unclear, but many theories exist, including "immortal" (fushi) or "not two" (peerless/fuji). * Kanji Meaning: The current characters for Fuji (富士) can be interpreted to mean "wealth" (富) and "man of status" (士). * Historic Names: In The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter (9th-10th century), an elixir of life is burned at the peak, leading it to be called fushi(immortal). 2. Curiosities and Unique Facts * Three Volcanoes in One: Mt. Fuji is actually three separate volcanoes stacked on top of each other: Komitake at the base, Kofuji in the middle, and Fuji at the top. * Privately Owned: The land from the 8th station (roughly 3,360 meters) to the summit is private property belonging to the Fujisan Hongū Sengen Taisha shrine. * Forbidden for Women: For centuries until the Meiji Restoration in 1868, women were forbidden from climbing the mountain. * "Fuji's Peak" (Hairline): A widow's peak hairline (a point in the middle of the forehead) is referred to as "Fuji's peak" in Japanese and is considered a marker of beauty. * Active Volcano: Despite being dormant for over 300 years, geologists still classify it as an active volcano. * 10 Stages (Gome): The trail to the top is divided into 10 "stations" or gome, with the fifth station being the highest point accessible by vehicle.
