Despite previously owning a 295-foot-long superyacht, billionaire Arthur Blank has decided to upgrade to an even larger vessel with more head-turning features.
As Luxurylaunches reported, the co-founder of Home Depot is inching closer to sailing aboard the DreAMBoat, a 364-foot luxury yacht currently in its sea trial phase.
With an exterior designed by Espen Øino and an interior created by Mark Berryman, the massive watercraft is filled to the gills with top-of-the-line amenities.
At 364 feet long, DreAMBoat boasts everything for just about any occasion under the sun. Aboard the ship, up to 28 guests can kick back and enjoy a cinema lounge, spa, and gym.
If that's not enough to win you over, the superyacht even comes equipped with an actual winter garden and beach club with a pool.
Coming in at 4,550 gross tonnes, DreAMBoat is a hefty vessel. But with twin MTU diesel engines, it can comfortably reach a maximum speed of 18 knots with a range of 5,250 nautical miles.

Following the completion of the ship's sea trials in the North Sea, onlookers may be able to catch the DreAMBoat at their nearest port later this year. The superyacht's smaller predecessor already left an impression after being spotted cruising around Portland, Maine.
Although anyone can admire or respect the level of craftsmanship and ingenuity that goes into constructing superyachts, critics have often pointed to the mind-boggling levels of waste and pollution produced by these enormous vessels.
According to a report from the Superyacht Sea Association, the carbon impact of superyachts needs to be better monitored in an effort to care for our planet.
In order to power their massive engines and amenities, superyachts can often rely on large amounts of dirty fuels. This can result in a single watercraft producing thousands of tonnes of carbon dioxide pollution every year.
