What does 'Open' mean on 165' lux power boat?

Says world's largest open yacht.

Looks like the rest of them to me.

I was expecting a 165' open, such as 'long boat'.

I agree with you, it looks like a standard plastic bath tub, I have no idea why they term it open.

An Open Yacht has an open cockpit; you can see the The Mangusta 165 open cockpit in this view:
