Who owns the most expensive yachts in the world. The most luxurious and expensive yachts in the world (10 photos)
It is a yacht bobbing lazily on the waves somewhere in the Mediterranean that fantasy draws when we imagine what wealth looks like. Price tags for the most cool yachts the world is going wild and only truly wealthy people can afford to buy them. But even knowing this, it's hard to believe that someone really managed to spend on a yacht ... 4.8 billion dollars!
Meet it History Supreme, and it was she who was awarded the status of "The Most Expensive Yacht in the World". The construction of the author's design under the guidance of the eccentric Mr. Hughes (the creator of the most expensive suit, the most expensive iPad and iPhone) took 3 years. During this time, it was possible to create a yacht worth more than total price at least 5 other most expensive yachts in the 2016 ranking.
What justifies the price? Elementary. Each rail, deck, ladder, dining table and even ship's anchor of this billionaire yacht is "wrapped" in the purest gold or platinum with a total weight of 100 kilograms. Rumor has it that inside the yacht you can find a statue made of nothing more than the bones of a T-Rex (the same Tyrannosaurus rex). In the decoration of the master bedroom of the billionaire yacht there is a natural meteorite stone. In addition, the yacht is decorated with a 68-kilogram golden aquarium. Well, for those who want to feel filled with luxury in the literal sense, a bottle of liquor is offered. This is a vessel actually filled with 18.5 carats of diamonds. Who else wants something stronger for $45 million?
Expensive yachts of the world should not be left without owners, and the public “suspects” Malaysian billionaire Robert Kuok of owning a yacht. Current state Kuoka - 17.5 billion dollars. Apparently, the “sugar king of Asia” (if in fact, it is he who is the owner of History Supreme) can really afford the coolest yachts in the world and even more.
Expensive yachts of the world
The History Supreme is the most expensive, but by no means the only yacht on the planet that has found itself in the center of intense, admiring and, to tell the truth, a little envious media attention. Regularly, dozens of business publications official ratings, which includes only the most demanding and expensive yachts peace. Apparently, the "racing for luxury" is really exciting - the top expensive yachts can number in the hundreds of copies. And participation in the unofficial "competition" is taken by millionaires and billionaires from the most different corners of the world, dreaming of getting into the coveted sheet. What does the top expensive yachts look like today?
Top 10 expensive yachts in the world
So, here it is, the "star" ten:
10. The Rising Sun, $200 million
Opening the top luxury yachts model The Rising Sun belongs to Larry Ellison, to CEO Oracle company. The price of expensive yachts of a similar category is equal to the cost of a small skyscraper, an old sports stadium and, of course, more than the GDP of small third world countries at once. The yacht has a basketball court (at the same time serving as an alternative to a helicopter), a cinema hall, a wine cellar and 82 separate rooms scattered over 5 floors.
9. Seven Seas, $200 million
The owner of the model is Steven Spielberg. A cinema, a helicopter landing area, a gym, an infinity pool - all this allowed Seven Seas to get into the top of the expensive yachts. The boat can comfortably accommodate 12 guests.
8. Lady Moura, $210 million
Lady Moura is so precious that even her name is engraved in 24 carat gold. The yacht is owned by Nassar Al-Rashid, a Saudi billionaire. Rooms on the ship are ready to accommodate 30 guests and more than 60 crew members. Two diesel engines are responsible for the movement. The power of both is 7000 hp.
7. Al Mirqab, $250 million
If you want to relax in luxury in the company of 24 close friends, then be sure to contact Hamad bin Jasem bin Jabar Al Thani. Billionaire yachts, namely the ship owned by the Prime Minister of Qatar, are ideal for this purpose.
6. Dilbar, $263 million
"Dilbar" is a crew of 47 people, a helipad, rooms for 20 guests, 360 meters in length and 50 feet in height. Billionaires from Russia are not ready to be left behind the competition, and Alisher Usmanov is participating in the battle of the most expensive yachts.
5. Al Said, $300 million
When you're so rich, you can afford to call a thing by its name. So did Sultan Qaboos bin Said Al Said of Oman. The aluminum structure moves at a speed of 22 knots and accommodates up to 70 people, not counting the 154 crew members. "Basic equipment" is supplemented concert hall, which, if necessary, will fit a fairly large orchestra.
4. Superyacht A, $323 million
And again, expensive yachts go to Russian representatives, in this case, Andrey Melchenko. It is not the appearance or size that impresses, but the interior design. For example, 3 pools, 2 additional boats, entertainment systems and exclusive rooms for 14 people.
3. Dubai, $350 million
Today it is the favorite brainchild of the Sheikh of Dubai. For guests of the ship, there is a swimming pool, a spa, a glass staircase and (of course) a helipad. This is a real floating city for 115 people.
2. Eclipse, $450 million to $1.2 billion valuation
The move is for Roman Abramovich, and he made the most of his chance to excel. Interestingly, the yacht has its own defense system to detect intruders and paparazzi.
1. Streets of Monaco, $1 billion
If a thing can cost a billion, then here it is - the second most expensive yacht in the world today. Unlike the floating city of Dubai, this is a full-fledged island on the water. The 500-foot vessel is a recreation of a Mediterranean city with smaller copies of the Monte Carlo casino, the Hotel de Paris, etc. At the same time, the “capacity” is only 16 guests. Probably because each room is a maxi-apartment with a living room, a bathroom, a dressing room, a bedroom and a balcony.
A yacht is not only a means of transportation, but also the status of a wealthy person.
The richest people even have several yachts.
Such people order the most luxurious and expensive yachts that exist in a single copy.

A German company called L?rssen, which specializes in the production of elite and luxury yachts, released in 2013 the world's largest mega yacht, calling it Azzam.
This yacht is the largest charter motor vessel.

Besides the fact that the Azzam class model is the largest vessel in the whole world, even larger than the yacht of Roman Abramovich himself, she is also one of the fastest in her class.
Its size is amazing. Just imagine: 180 meters is two football fields or 12 railway wagons. At the same time, Azzam can easily accelerate to a maximum speed of 30 knots (55 km/h). She is assisted in this by two gas turbines with a total capacity of 94,000 hp, four water jets, and a W?rtsil?-Sulzer RTA96-C turbocharged diesel engine with a capacity of 108,920 hp. (80,088 kW).
It is the largest engine in the world: its length is 27.1 m, its height is 13.4 m, and it weighs over 2,300 tons. Originally designed for container ships, it is ideal for a 180-meter mega-yacht. There is no doubt that with such dimensions, there is enough space left on board the mega-yacht to realize any fantasies of the customer. Even her main salon has no analogues in the world: length - 29 m, width 18 m.

To service a ship of such impressive size, five hundred crew members are needed. About one million fuel can be poured into the tank of a yacht of this class, which allows its owner and guests to travel the world all year round without entering the port to refuel the vessel. One of the advantages of an azzam class yacht is that she can easily navigate through shallow water at very high speeds.

Design interior decoration engaged in a popular and talented French designer, whose name is Christophe Leoni. The famous designer in his work adhered to the Empire style.

Detailed information about the ship's interior this moment no, but it is known from reliable sources that the area of the big saloon azzam is thirty by twenty meters, this salon does not contain pillars that divide the interior space. It is also known that the length of the open terrace is over eighteen meters.

The interior of the yacht, Christophe Leoni designed in a magnificent imperial, expensive and luxurious style. Most of the furniture, which is harmoniously placed on the ship, is antique, made from valuable and expensive woods.
Partially antique furniture painted with gold and decorated with jewelry stones. It is said that a yacht of this class has a submarine on board, as well as a helicopter.

The designers reported that this vessel is the most complex and lengthy project of the company. Mubarak Saad al Ahbabi is the lead engineer who built the superyacht.

The technical management of the building was carried out by Burgess Yachts. The chief engineer was Mubarak Saad al Ahbabi.
There was a version that this one Prince on a white yacht yacht owner.

Nauta Yachts is an Italian company that designed the Azzam class vessel, and the German company Lurssen, which is located in the city of Bremen, was directly involved in the construction of this magnificent and majestic mega yacht.

It is known that the style in which interior spaces Azzam, is close to the neoclassicism of the early 19th century - the reign of Napoleon Bonaparte. In the absence of photographs from the board of the mega-yacht - no one has yet been able to obtain them, even reputable international yachting publications - one can imagine something reminiscent of the imperial bedrooms at Versailles.

Azzam is registered as a charter yacht, however open information the possibility and cost of her charter is not presented anywhere. It is extremely rare to find a yacht in the Arabian Sea, even less often in the Mediterranean. In May 2015, eyewitnesses managed to see her passing Gibraltar. At present and most season - Azzam is moored at Khalifa Port in Abu Dhabi.

People tend to judge well-being by expensive cars, luxury apartments and expensive jewelry. Such is the set of a successful person who does not deny himself anything. But there are people of the upper class who flaunt huge ships before each other. As a rule, the size of the yacht can be judged on its value. Let's see what is the largest yacht in the world, who owns it, and who competes with.
Who usually buys huge ships?
Yachts are distinguished by the highest level of comfort, which is why they are most often bought for family vacation or walks in a large company. It happens that yachts are taken to rent out, this is quite a profitable business. But in our rating we are talking about large yachts, whose owners can only be billionaires, sheikhs, crown princes or world celebrities.
The most famous yacht owners are: Sheikh Dubai, billionaire Roman Abramovich, the Sultan of Oman, the Kings of Egypt and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The co-founder of Oracle Corporation, Lawrence Joseph Alison, also has a huge ship.
Azzam
In the first place of our rating is the largest yacht in the world, a photo of which can be viewed on the Internet. The 180-meter vessel was created at the German shipyard Lürssen Yachts, and it touched the water just two years ago. This yacht, whose name literally translates as "resolute", was created specifically for Khalifa al-Nahyan, President United Arab Emirates. Despite its impressive size, the draft of the yacht does not exceed 4.5 meters. This factor, as well as two powerful engines of 90,000 horses, allow the ship to reach speeds of more than 31 knots. The width of the vessel is also impressive - almost 21 meters. The ship cost its owner $610 million. Unfortunately, very little is known about the interior of the yacht. There is unconfirmed information that the main salon stretches for almost 30 meters, and the terrace is a little less - 18 meters. Witnesses who have been lucky enough to have been on this yacht speak with delight of the sumptuous and intricate design, executed in the imperial style.
It's hard to believe that this huge yacht belongs to a private person. Nevertheless, this is true, the owner of the ship is Roman Abramovich, a notorious oligarch. This vessel cost him $300 million, although independent experts, evaluating the changes made and additional work, are talking about 1200 million dollars spent on this miracle.
The creators of this giant are the designers of Atabeyki Design Development and the German shipyard Blohm + Voss, and a company from the United Kingdom of Great Britain worked on its interior decoration.
Draft, as well as length, this vessel is slightly inferior to the previous one - 5.9 meters. But the width is larger than that of Azzam - 21.5 meters.
The nine-deck yacht develops its speed of 25 knots thanks to diesel engines from a German concern that has earned recognition. The crew of the yacht consists of seventy people, although a good hundred “servants” can fit here.
Eclipse is very spacious - in addition to the staff, up to forty people can comfortably relax in it. For guests on the ship there are 15 luxury cabins and 24 suites.
This is not the only thing that can impress the guest of Roman Abramovich, the oligarch also has two swimming pools, several dining rooms, a dance floor, a cinema, an exhibition hall, an admiral's cabin of 500 square meters, a gym, a rich cellar with wines, a music stage, numerous fireplaces ... Indeed, there is something to be surprised! But that's not all - the ship has four boats, two helicopters, twenty scooters and even a submarine.
The owner also took care of safety, in addition to the usual system, the ship has a special integrated system for detecting the launch of ballistic missiles, photosensors that provide protection against unauthorized shooting.
Among the Russian fast ships for transporting individuals equipped with a deck and a cabin, the yacht with the pleasant name "Smile" stands out. It was built in one of the districts of the capital - Nagatinskiy backwater. By the way, the construction was going on urgently, so the creators had to work day and night. The ship is owned by a Samara company that forked out $15 million.
The interior finishes of this five-deck hulk can satisfy the highest demands. The length of the yacht exceeds the "Pallada" of the President, in general, amounting to 38.6 meters. The first deck contains a cockpit and apartments for guests, the second - a dining room, two huge salons with mirrored walls, poufs and a cinema hall, and on the third - there is a reception hall, in the fourth - a closed special-purpose building and a room for leisure, but with fifth, climbing the stairs, you can get to the jacuzzi.
A rare variety of mahogany was used to decorate the ship. On board there is satellite TV and communications, modern navigation is beyond praise, as well as a platform for two scooters. This ship will require a crew of five to steer, and ten guests can be accommodated comfortably.
A yacht is practically a ship, only a little smaller. Most often, yachts are used for personal purposes, just like a personal car. The yacht appeared many years ago, at that time the Dutch Navy used them to chase pirates in shallow water. Later, when Charles II returned to England by sea, he used his best yacht as a luxury item. And most of the people who wish to go to sea cruise with luxury, they prefer to travel on their own expensive yacht, even though they have other vessels available.
When planning a vacation, many people want to spend it at sea, because the sea is exotic and amazing place for this kind of activity. Ordinary people they try to enjoy the sea on the beach, while the wealthy, who can afford to keep the most expensive yacht, enjoy the melody of the waves in the open sea. When we talk about private yachts, the first thing that comes to mind is big money. However, there are such happy people who can afford most expensive yachts.
