    Some areas were designed like yachts, the rest were commercial ships (%10 yacht interior) I am not interested in the project because it is constantly changing. money and time go sky

    In 2017 the owner said he planned to give away most of his fortune when he founded the REV Ocean initiative.

    Looks like that plan is moving along nicely.

    Most of it will be a yacht like interior, the rest will be pretty decent. It's a very sneaky way for a super wealthy individual to build a massive yacht and get grants from a charitable foundation to pay for it.

    The boat was part of it, there was also a building as well. I think he's still waiting on planning permission.

    E-mail it to me and I can pixel it down for you and send it back or post it for you.

    kiwirob's pic seems a bit large also.

    I’ve seen the same but I question when it was taken. Doesn’t look like she was extended there nor had that top deck removed.

    To be honest for me this really isn’t a luxury yacht and I don’t consider this the longest yacht in the world. This seems more of a scientific and research vessel than a luxury/ explorer yacht. I doubt it even gets used like the typical private yacht ever.

    Well you can make the same argument for certain luxury companies wanting to fight with you for not calling their yacht-like cruise ships superyachts... Cough, Emerald Cruises, Ritz Carlton Yacht Collection, and the coming Four Seasons vessels.

    Keeping the thread rolling... a render of REV Ocean. I only just realized that she will become the 'longest' which when she is delivered eventually finally displace "Azzam".

    Curious if the extended bow sprit and the excessive bulb-bow had something to do with the “longest”, in addition to the 12 meter extension of course.
    REV in Norwegian has two meanings, either Fox or Reef and this Rev has her own website:

    Will Rev be commercial finished exterior paint-wise ( as per current trend ) or will they get superyacht finishing on Superstructure only( again as per current trend)?

    I'd go with commercial finish like "Renaissance".

    REV Ocean though a scientific platform will be available for charter as well.
