BOAT TAIL

COACHBUILD BY ROLLS-ROYCE

A HAND-BUILT MASTERPIECE

Envisioned by extraordinary clients and realised by the master artisans of Coachbuild, this singular imagining honours the owners’ lifelong reverence for life at sea.

A ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME EXPERIENCE

Coachbuild presents individuals of extraordinary achievement, culture, and vision to craft an entirely original motor car — and stake claim in the marque’s legendary history. With Coachbuild, one realises a dream in partnership with the world’s finest designers, engineers, and artisans.
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.’

ビスポークの頂点

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.’
