Dubai

The Dubai is a yacht currently owned by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Ruler of the Emirate of Dubai and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates. The vessel, due to its 162-meter length, is recognized as the 3rd largest yacht in the world. Width - 22 meters, draft - 5 meters, speed - 26 knots (48 km / h).

Melnichenko and his yachts

44-year-old native of Gomel Andrey Melnichenko is sometimes called the “king of fertilizers”: among his assets is OJSC Eurochem, the largest in Russia and one of the largest world producers of mineral fertilizers. Beneficial share of Melnichenko in OAO Eurochem is 90%. Approximately the same share in JSC "Siberian Coal Energy Company" - the largest in Russia and one of the leading coal companies in the world and LLC "Siberian Generating Company" - the leading electric power company in Siberia. Melnichenko's fortune is estimated at $ 13.4 billion, in 2016 he took 139th place in the Forbes world ranking of billionaires and 11th among Russian billionaires.

The new sailing yacht Melnichenko is called the largest in the world, or at least one of the largest. It has eight floors and an underwater deck, the vessel is 142 meters long and 91 meters high. The area of its sails on three masts exceeds the area of \u200b\u200ba football field, and the crew of 54 people serves the vessel, reports lenta.ru. This is the second yacht of the oligarch: the businessman also owns the motor yacht "A", launched in the summer of 2008 after four years of construction. They say that both yachts with the letter "A" are named after Alexandra's wife.

The detention of the new yacht, which came to Gibraltar to complete the finishing work, is associated with the claim of its manufacturer, the German company Nobiskrug, whose lawyers filed a lawsuit for breach of contract. It states that the customer, Valla Yachts Limited, failed to make the final payment of 9.8 million euros on time. The shipbuilders also had other claims in connection with debts on subcontracting accounts, and their total amount is 15.3 million euros.

The 44-year-old owner of the fortune has two things to be proud of: his wife and yachts. In 2005, the Russian oligarch married the former Miss Yugoslavia, Serbian top model Alexandra Nikolic, whose wedding cost him $40 million. Therefore, when three years later, in 2008, Melnichenko built himself a new yacht worth $320 million. , he did not have a shadow of a doubt what name to give the ship. He named the yacht briefly and concisely, in honor of his beloved wife (well, a little in honor of himself): "A". Since then, the vessel has been considered one of the most famous and luxurious on the planet...

Looking at the unusual vessel, Londoners took pictures against its background and published footage on social networks. Pictures of "A", plying on the main river of the British capital, bypassed the English media. "Tens of thousands of ships have passed under Tower Bridge, but few have been as large and luxurious as this," writes the Daily Mail. Megayacht "A" was designed by the famous French designer Philippe Starck and built at the Hamburg shipyard Blohm + Voss. The length of the vessel is 119 meters. The design of the yacht caused a variety of opinions. The yacht is compared to submarines and warships, and journalists agreed that "this is the most attractive and repulsive ship in the world."

Spacious, with an area of 240 square meters, Melnichenko's cabin is located above the wheelhouse. A spiral staircase leads to it along the walls lined with sheet silver, the railing of which cost the billionaire $60,000. The double bed stands on a podium, which is rotated by pressing a button. Another button controls the rotation of the bed itself, so that the owner lying on it can admire the sunset and sunrise from any position. Only one mixer in the bathroom of the owner of the yacht cost him 40 thousand dollars ... The yacht also has three swimming pools, one of which has a glass floor, a helipad, boats and even its own submarine ...

Melnichenko has long been able to afford not to sit for days in a stuffy office, but to enjoy the fresh sea breeze on board his yacht in the company of a beautiful wife. With these two things, he, in fact, has been thundering in recent years in the gossip column, inviting Hollywood stars of the rank Demi Moore and Sharon Stone to stay on his ship. For several years, yacht "A" has been seen in various parts of the world.
