In the continuous battle of the mega yachts to be the most
extravagant vessel on the seas, it takes a lot to really impress.
While helipads, waterslides, and
movie theatres are commonplace additions to the yachts of the super wealthy, a
stylish Italian is making waves for being the first to feature a floating
drive-in garage.
J'ade, by Ferretti group company
CRN, features a hydraulic-operated hatch which can store an eight-metre
speedboat without the use of a tender lift.

Glide in: The internal basic

the speedboat
The internal basin, which holds
18,000 litres of water, floods and empties in just three minutes, enabling the
boat (a 27ft Riva Iseo) to enter the yacht without using a crane.
When the speedboat is not stored
inside, the basin can also be utilised as an indoor ocean pool, accessible from
the lower-deck terrace.
Completed last year, the 60-metre yacht was the star attraction at
last week's Monaco Yacht Show, where it was a finalist for the Best Interior
award. The brand-new Perini Navi motor yacht Grace E was awarded the prize.
J'ade made it's debut at the
annual yacht show last year, and also won the World Yacht Trophy at the 2013
International Boat Show.

created by Studio Zuccon International Project, and is designed to feel 'at one
with the sea'.
The 196-foot vessel can
comfortable accommodate 10 guests in four cabins and the owner suite, and 13
crew members. Aside from the impressive 'garage', J'ade also features a
gymnasium, hammam room and aquarium.
Across the four decks, materials
for the interiors are Canaletto walnut and polished rosewood. The hardwood
floors are made of wide Afromosia strips and the cabins and owner suite are
fitted with white Tai Ping carpets. There are jade green accents throughout the
interior.

‘CRN is experimenting,’ Luca
Boldrini, CRN’s sales director told Boat International.
‘We’re experimenting in design,
in sizes, and in features. Each of the yachts in build has special features in
development, and we hope the next step will be to mix and match all these new
features in one or two new concepts so future owners can not only have a
beautiful, seaworthy and safe vessel, but they can have special features that
nobody else has.
'These will not be special
features that are just an experiment, but features clients can touch and feel
in other vessels under construction or already floating.’
