Today, the powerful and rich of this world can buy anything they want to show just how wealthy and eccentric they are. Every filthy-rich oligarch has mountains of gadgets worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, shoes encrusted with diamonds, cars worth tens of millions, private islands, villas, houses, castles, and of course, the biggest one — a hugely expensive yacht (or even a couple). But just how much can a person spend on a glorified boat?
Here are the top ten most luxurious yachts in the world!
1. Serene — $330 million
This 134-meter-long beast of a vessel was produced in Italy in 2011. Serene has a fully equipped gym, several swimming pools, a cinema, a sauna, two helipads, and much more, but the most extraordinary is the room with artificial snow. Why? Because why not!
2. Dubai — $400 million
Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum’s 162-meter-long yacht has a luxurious interior designed in an oriental style. There is a helipad on board, a giant spiral staircase, and a ton of culturally significant artifacts and expensive knick-knacks sprinkled around the boat.
3. REV Ocean — $450 million
REV Ocean is the largest private yacht in the world. At least for the time being. This ship is the project of billionaire Kjell Inge Rekke, the second richest businessman in Norway. The yacht is very different from the other vessels on this list as it was not created to satiate someone’s fragile ego. No, the REV Ocean is full of technical and scientific equipment. Scientists working on the ship study the impact of carbon dioxide emissions, plastic, and unregulated fishing on the ocean, among other research projects.
4. Sailing Yacht “A” — $500 million
“A” was built in Germany in 2015 for a Russian billionaire, Andrey Melnichenko. The boat has eight decks, and its masts are higher than the legendary Big Ben (over 100 m). More than 50 people are required to service the yacht whenever the billionaire decides to whip it out for a swim.
