PANORAMIC 65

What is it? A 213ft, 1,000GT

hybrid superyacht designed by Frank

Neubelt for German Yacht Couture

and offered by Dörries Yachts.

Why we love it The views are certainly

panoramic, thanks to abundant glass.

Guests are accommodated from the

main deck up, with bridge deck suites

incorporating sliding glass doors. The

owner commands the entire top deck,

where the vistas extend upwards

through the glass ceiling. The transom

opens via a sliding glass hatch to

reveal an indoor/outdoor pool.

THOR

What is it? A 252ft exploration vessel by British

studio Gresham Yacht Design, working with Seymour

Diamond for the interiors.

Why we love it The interior is truly outside the box. The

organic design began here and informed the exterior

styling with its double-height circular windows. These
