One of the key features of this design is to employ the maximum number of outdoor seating arrangements on the aft decks. A couple of Jacuzzi’s and sun lounges can be found below and above the master deck. The main deck is situated at the bow of the yacht and a wraparound couch is placed around a Jacuzzi, providing private sun lounges along with magnificent open view. This serves as a master suite room that includes a dining room and a personal lounge.

Two Diesel Engines are producing the required power and are mated with 2 Electric Diesel Azipod Props. Moreover, a solar panel has been placed on the top of the yacht acting as an alternative power supply. This solar energy can run all the electric units when the yacht is docked at port, bringing the noise down to a calm whisper. All the passengers of Sylvia Nancy will cater spectacular open ocean views and relaxing fun atmosphere, while saving the environment all through the trip.

Text from website:
Oculus is the first “design launch” of Schöpfer Yachts LLC. This 250-foot vessel was designed by E. Kevin Schöpfer, founder and owner of his namesake company.

Designed to accommodate 12 guests in extraordinary comfort and style, Oculus is a long distance cruising yacht capable of speeds upwards of 25 knots.

The exterior styling is representative of the jaw and eye socket bone structure of large oceanic fish and mammals. Featuring a dramatic reverse bow configuration, the yacht’s armature balances an elegant expression of symmetry and structure.

In addition to the bow, Oculus also features a “low rider profile”. This slightly lowered surface allows for new side recreational areas, alternate dockage access and light cruising openness. Lateral retractable side panels close this area when heavier wave action is indicated.

The interior features of Oculus focus on a 12 foot high ceiling in the main salon, a cylindrical double height dining room, central stair and elevator tube, and seemingly anatomical ceiling and floor lighting extensions giving definition to the seating areas.

The second level is the dedicated Owner’s suite. Living areas and bedchambers are divided by a series of four freestanding tubes, which house bath and storage necessities.

In addition to the main common stair, the second Owner’s stair connects to the third level aft private salon and deck / water feature.

The third level also contains the forward pilothouse and separate captain’s quarters. The generous open decks with separate water features are located forward and aft for convenient guest use. Specifications and plans are in the final stages of completion and will be posted at a later time.
