Wow. The new Oceana Y708 is almost as long as a football field – and is being touted as the most advanced yacht ever made.
Dutch yachtbuilder Oceanco recently unveiled its largest model to date, the 85.6-metre Y708, dubbed the most advanced superyacht the company has ever put into production. Half a metre bigger than their Vibrant Curiosity we wrote about last summer, the Igor Lobanov-designed Y708 Based on three guiding principles: motion, elegance, and privacy. Dramatically sculpted surfaces convey motion, while the dynamic silhouette imparts elegance. Lastly, the design of each of the four decks is done in such a way as to maximize privacy and offer guests private balconies to enjoy the view, apart from others on board, while the hidden crew passages conceal menial labour from their gaze. – From James List
