Is it a Yacht? Is it a Whale?

No, it’s the OCULUS! This, my little friends, is what we call a Super Yacht. And isn’t it super? The 250 ft pile of awesome was designed by Kevin Schöpfer, and while it is still only a concept, the Oculus is the flagship yacht (i’m sorry – Super Yacht) in Schöpfer’s new line.

Nice.

Nice.

Schöpfer describes the Oculus as

Designed to accommodate 12 guests in extraordinary comfort and style, Oculus is a long distance cruising yacht capable of speeds upwards of 25 knots. The exterior styling is representative of the jaw and eye socket bone structure of large oceanic fish and mammals. Featuring a dramatic reverse bow configuration, the yacht’s armature balances an elegant expression of symmetry and structure. In addition to the bow, Oculus also features a “low rider profile”. This slightly lowered surface allows for new side recreational areas, alternate dockage access and light cruising openness. Lateral retractable side panels close this area when heavier wave action is indicated. The interior features of Oculus focus on a 12 foot high ceiling in the main salon, a cylindrical double height dining room, central stair and elevator tube, and seemingly anatomical ceiling and floor lighting extensions giving definition to the seating areas. The second level is the dedicated Owner’s suite. Living areas and bedchambers are divided by a series of four freestanding tubes, which house bath and storage necessities. In addition to the main common stair, the second Owner’s stair connects to the third level, a private salon and deck / water feature. The third level also contains the forward pilothouse and separate captain’s quarters. The generous open decks with separate water features are located forward and aft for convenient guest use.

A Low-Rider profile?? Well daaaaamn somebody’s gonna be getting some Wave Action! And I think the water feature’s a lovely touch…. even thought it might look a bit small when you’re travelling across The Ocean. Go HERE to order yours (it’ll only set you back about $95 Million).

Please...make yourselves at home...
