DISCOVER COACHBUILD

‘Boat Tail is our most ambitious project yet. Coachbuild, in collaboration with its clients, has ignored all preconceived notions of possibility and set a new standard. This is Bespoke at its purest.’

Torsten Müller-Ötvös
CEO, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars

THE PINNACLE OF BESPOKE

Coachbuild is the physical embodiment of a client’s character, a distillation of their utmost self. Crafted in exclusive collaboration between artisans and owners, every element of Boat Tail is personalised perfection.

A REFERENTIAL SILHOUETTE

Boat Tail’s nautical form evokes graceful J-class yachts and a 1932 Rolls-Royce Boat Tail the owners lovingly restored as part of their expansive collection.

A LESSON IN SYMMETRY

Modern open-pore Caleidolegno offsets the soft blue lacquer. Reminiscent of wooden hull forms, the material is skilfully book matched and perfectly symmetrical.

A VISION IN BLUE

The clients’ favourite hue: an oceanic blue infused with shimmering crystals. The complex colour is subtle in shadow and vibrant in light. Its smooth edges were achieved by delicately running a finger over the definitive body line before the paint set.

A SENSE OF OCCASION

At the press of a button, the deck opens in a sweeping butterfly gesture, revealing an intricate hosting suite replete with a whimsical parasol. Its movement evokes cantilever concepts explored by renowned architect Santiago Calatrava.

A PRESERVATION OF TIME

Two-sided timepieces, one for the lady and one for the gentleman, can be worn or placed within the fascia as car clocks. The timepieces required Rolls-Royce and Bovet 1822 to work in partnership for over three years.

A TASTE FOR CELEBRATION

A double refrigerator houses the clients’ favourite vintages of Armand de Brignac champagne. Bottles can be rapidly cooled to precisely six degrees – the optimum serving temperature of the preferred vintage.

‘Capturing the client’s personality is fundamental; Coachbuild elevates this principle to its highest plane. It is an artistic skillset only existing at Rolls-Royce.’

Head of Coachbuild Design, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars
