The resultant design is the Yacht by Lalique, which will be presented at the <a href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Monaco Yacht Show - 2021">Monaco Yacht Show</a> in September.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/200567/image/large-81306002f304cad9f7f14082c64a67c7.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/200567">The&nbsp;Yacht by Lalique will not only nod to the rich history of the Lalique brand, but will also look towards the future by employing an eco-friendly design. The superyacht will feature an electric propulsion system, which harnesses energy through a combination of renewable energy sources including solar, wind and currents. Additional energy will be harvested through a seawater electrolysis process in which hydrogen will be extracted from seawater and stored on board in fuel cells. This process has been developed by Energy Observer, who collaborated on the project. Besides the superyacht’s propulsion system, additional environmental considerations have been taken. The collection of runoff water, management of ‘black’ and ‘grey’ water, organic waste management and the use of eco-friendly materials where possible have also been implemented in the design.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/200572/image/large-3052f4422b4678e19f4cdf6346c0f92c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/200572">The Yacht&nbsp;features extensive space on board for leisure. The main deck is home to a swimming pool, a bar, a Jacuzzi and an exterior terrace. Inside, the main saloon connects to the dining room as well as a small living room. Additionally, six guest staterooms are found on the main deck. The Yacht’s interior will feature Lalique crystal pieces throughout as well as custom designed decor from Maison MEFTAH. The interior of the superyacht has been imagined in collaboration between Lalique, Maison MEFTAH, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/416" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Ocea (Company)">OCEA Shipyard</a> and designer <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4958" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Borella Art Design (Company)">Nicola Borella</a>.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/200569/image/large-58669250a8d6dc7e627238a7543d7c4c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/200569"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/200571/image/large-05b2ebf3c5077cd4c07b038bc34e647f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/200571"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/200570/image/large-b025ca2dc5c5071ba3cc99b14ecf0322.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/200570">The upper deck features an additional Jacuzzi as well as a sunbathing area, and a lounge to both bow and stern. A 101 square-metre owner’s suite is also situated on the main deck and is complete with a double dressing room, two toilets and two bathrooms as well as a large lounge area. The upper deck also provides access to a helipad.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/200566/image/large-15391bd09d0aca4cc7b9a7a4060e212e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/200566"> <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/200565/image/large-6b382ccf8c0313ced0eefc733635a473.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/200565">The Yacht’s flybridge is dedicated to leisure. The deck is home to a Japanese bath, a bar and a sunbathing area while the interior features a lounge, a workout gym, a billiards table, a spa, a sauna and more.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/200568/image/large-09584d522d079f897f4e55b765c22460.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/200568">The superyacht will have a range of 6,000 nautical miles while cruising at 12 knots, thanks to her twin 1,750 kW engines.

New 71m superyacht concept The Yacht from Lalique

The French shipyard Ocea Yachts have recently unveiled their latest superyacht concept: the 38-metre OCEA 125XP explorer, developed in cooperation with Joubert-Nivelt Design and Borella Art Design. <img src="/uploads/store/photo/31467/image/large-302a4bfefea93b6e06365e6365efe4fb.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/31467">The silhouette of this latest concept, designed by Michel Joubert, demonstrates its primary function as a deep-sea vessel designed for exploring and crossing oceans. On account of its high bulbous bow, the 38-metre superyacht could tackle all weather conditions, with its 5,000 nautical mile range making possible voyages to all corners of the world (including Greenland and Spitsbergen - due to its ice classification). <img src="/uploads/store/photo/31465/image/large-fa0ed0a2095eccdc7605febde3592e28.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/31465">In addition, for landing on coasts which lack port infrastructure, the OCEA 125XP includes a well sheltered nine-metre tender located at the stern, with lowering by a davit system. This reasonably rare feature on yachts would be reassuring for owners when the ship is in a region with little shelter. In addition, the aft deck can also encompass other toys on the starboard side, with further storage provided on the sundeck for lightweight craft. <img src="/uploads/store/photo/31468/image/large-1b1e28d91d7b615466e4e300e60f9dde.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/31468"> <img src="/uploads/store/photo/31463/image/large-13510361cdc375fcd882899b96379d76.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/31463">With her interior arrangements designed by the Borella Art Design agency, guests on this 38-metre explorer superyacht would be immersed in the surrounding landscape. The sundeck is topped by a crow's nest, the upper deck lounge features large picture windows and the panoramic quarter deck offers excellent wind protection for luxurious al-fresco dining.&nbsp;<img src="/uploads/store/photo/31460/image/large-3d4ed1bea69f832d13a7b6c78d6d701f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/31460">"I love working on products with their own personality," says Nicola Borella co-director of Borella Art Design, "The OCEA 125XP is intended for voyaging all over in the idea of luxury. When you return on board after adventuring, you want warmth and calm. That's why I set out to create a world that is real and poetic, comfortable, and unashamedly luxurious, all at once."&nbsp;This is reflected in the choice of soft colours and top-quality materials in the interior: koto, a creamy white African wood with a flecked appearance, and louro faia, a South-American lacewood with a meshed structure, along with wool and silk rugs, chromework, supple full-grain leathers, Cristal Lalique decorative items, and more "The OCEA 125XP is the culmination of various projects on the theme of calm and lightness. It's the most beautiful product we've ever made," adds Nicola Borella. According to Ocea Yachts, this explorer superyacht would be ready for delivery starting 2020. <img src="/uploads/store/photo/31461/image/large-cbce51671b769d0bcfb3c7ac49864a26.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/31461">
