It comes as Shinkai, which is Japanese for Deep Sea, embarks on its first mission to travel the world.
It is thought to be the first of what will be a lifetime of journeys of global exploration.
And according to ship builder Feadship, the owner of this monster boat has an "enormous" amount of experience of "discovering the world by sea".
The teams at Vitruvius and Feadship developed the massive explorer alongside designer Philippe Briand.
They built it to be able to travel the world whilst remaining self-sufficient and fuel-efficient.
It comes it's own striking mast which catches the eye of onlookers.
It also has its very own 7.2 tonne submarine, which comes with a huge crane which is used for launching and collecting it.
