The sustainable yachting sector just got its newest member.

The first model from GX Superyachts, a green-tech shipyard, was launched this week in Turkey. The 138-foot flagship, known as the GX40, is aiming to set a new standard for eco-conscious cruising in the sector.

That goal is shown off right as you step onboard. The new model can go up to 48 hours without emitting a single emission at anchor. While on the water, meanwhile, a cutting-edge diesel-electric hybrid propulsion system and a large-capacity lithium battery bank give the superyacht its power, with some help from the integrated solar arrays to reduce emissions as well. All that helps the GX40 to reduce its onboard electricity consumption by up to 45 percent.
