Her striking and angular reverse bow offers a silhouette that compares with a spaceship and will assertively cut through ocean waters.

The exterior lines help to draw the eye to the bridge and the owner's decks, which have been surrounded by a curved floor to ceiling mirror glass on all sides. The largest panel of these is a staggering six meters in length. 

The statement glass also reaches 180° around the master suite, so the sleeping guests can awake in the morning fully immersed in their peaceful surroundings.
