Gill Schmid Design, a New York-based design practice, has unveiled the details for a new 80 meter, about 262 feet, hybrid concept superyacht that includes an on-board garage, salon, and whiskey and cigar lounge.

The boat is called a "hybrid" because it is a cross "between a highly functional Explorer and a super luxurious white boat," meaning it is both plush and capable of sailing the wide world, reads a prepared statement by Gill Schmid.

It was also designed to be "chameleon-like" with its mirrored glazing, reflecting the surrounding environment as its sailing. This glazing allows the yacht to "sometimes [represent itself] as an aggressive workboat, and other times the luxurious lines of a superyacht, appearing and disappearing into her surrounds," according to the press release.

The boat has a two-tone finish of industrial silver and pearlescent white. The silver indicates operational areas, while the white denotes parts of the yacht for guest and entertainment spaces.

It includes a fully enclosed tender garage which can also double as a party space.

The garage can completely open up, turning the rear section of the yacht into a three-level entertainment area.

It’s near the lounges, bars, and library spaces.

For colder weather, there are sheltered spaces that have LED panels in the ceiling, allowing for a “simulated roofscape and virtual immersive experiences.”
