    Even when it was under construction, the Russian billionaire’s yacht came to the attention of environmentalists. The London-based Environmental Investigation Agency (EIA) claims it uses illegally mined teak from Myanmar.

Spanish yachts of Nazarbayev's grandson: only expenses without cruises

The yachts that Nurali Aliyev, the grandson of the President of Kazakhstan, unsuccessfully tried to acquire in Spain, never fell into his hands. DW found out why. (07/25/2016)

It is a yacht lazily rocking on the waves somewhere in the Mediterranean that our imagination pictures when we imagine what wealth looks like. Price tags for the most cool yachts world prices are off the charts and only truly wealthy people can afford to buy them. But even knowing this, it’s hard to believe that someone actually managed to spend... 4.8 billion dollars on a yacht!

Meet this History Supreme, and it was she who was awarded the status of “The most expensive yacht in the world.” The construction of the original design under the leadership of the eccentric Mr. Hughes (creator of the most expensive suit, the most expensive iPad and iPhone) took 3 years. During this time, we managed to create a yacht with a cost exceeding the total price of at least 5 other most expensive yachts in the 2016 rating.

What justifies the price? Elementary. Every rail, deck, staircase, dining table and even the ship's anchor of this billionaire's yacht is “wrapped” in the purest gold or platinum with a total weight of 100 kilograms. There are rumors that inside the yacht you can find a statue made from none other than the bones of a T-Rex (the same Tyrannosaurus rex). The decoration of the main bedroom of the billionaires' yacht contains natural meteorite stone. In addition, the yacht is decorated with a 68-kilogram gold aquarium. Well, for those who want to feel filled with luxury in the literal sense, a bottle of liqueur 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. Kuok's current net worth is $17.5 billion. Apparently, the “sugar king of Asia” (if, in fact, he is the owner of History Supreme) can really afford the coolest yachts in the world and even more.

Expensive yachts of the world

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, slightly envious media attention. Regularly, dozens of business publications compile official ratings, which include only the most demanding and expensive yachts in the world. Apparently, the “race for luxury” is really exciting - the top expensive yachts can number in the hundreds of units. And millionaires and billionaires from various parts of the world take part in the unofficial “competition,” dreaming of getting on the coveted list. What does the top expensive yacht look like today?

Top 10 expensive yachts in the world

So, here it is, the “star” ten:

10. The Rising Sun, $200 million.

The Rising Sun model, which opens the top of expensive yachts, 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. The yacht has a basketball court (which also serves as an alternative to the helicopter court), a cinema hall, a wine cellar and 82 private rooms spread over 5 floors.

9. Seven Seas, $200 million

The owner of the model is Steven Spielberg. Cinema, helicopter landing pad, Gym, an infinity pool - all this allowed Seven Seas to get into the top of expensive yachts. The ship can comfortably accommodate 12 guests.

8. Lady Moura, $210 million

Lady Moura is so expensive that even its name is stamped on the side in 24-karat gold. The yacht is owned by Nassar Al-Rashid, a Saudi billionaire. The rooms on the ship are ready to accommodate 30 guests and more than 60 crew members. Two diesel engines are responsible for movement. The power of both is 7000 hp.

7. Al Mirqab, $250 million

If you want to relax in luxury with the company of 24 close friends, then be sure to contact Hamad bin Jassem bin Jabar Al Thani. Billionaire yachts, namely the vessel owned by the Prime Minister of Qatar, are ideal for this purpose.

6. Dilbar, $263 million

"Dilbar" has a crew of 47 people, a helipad, rooms for 20 guests, 360 meters in length and 50 feet in height. Russian billionaires are not ready to be left behind their competitors, and Alisher Usmanov is participating in the battle of the most expensive yachts.

5. Al Said, $300 million

When you are so rich, you can afford to call a thing by its own name. This is what Sultan Qaboos Bin Said Al Said of Oman did. 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 being supplemented concert hall, which can accommodate a fairly large orchestra if necessary.

4. Superyacht A, $323 million.

And again, expensive yachts go to Russian representatives, in this case to Andrey Melchenko. It is not the appearance or size that is impressive, but the interior of the structure. For example, 3 swimming 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, valuation from $450 million to 1.2 billion.

It was Roman Abramovich's move, and he made the most of the chance to excel. Interestingly, the yacht has its own defense system to detect intruders and paparazzi.

1. Streets of Monaco, $1 billion.

If something 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, bathroom, dressing room, bedroom and balcony.

Boat International, an online yachting magazine, has published a list of the world's largest private luxury yachts. The first 17 especially stand out on the list - their length varies from 123 to an impressive 180 meters. Most of them were built this century, but the oldest yacht on the list first sailed 150 years ago. Many of the yachts on this list are shrouded in an aura of mystery - despite their outstanding size, it is unknown who owns them. 17. Savarona - 124 meters. We start with a beautiful yacht built in 1937 for Emily Roebling Cadwalader, heiress to a wealthy family from the USA. She was later purchased by Turkey for use as a presidential yacht, and in 1989 the yacht was refurbished and refitted at a cost of $35 million.
16. Katara - 124 meters. The origins of this yacht are unclear, but in ports it flies the flag of Qatar. Boat International believes that the yacht belongs to the young emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani
15. Maryah - 125 meters. This is a former Russian research vessel built in Poland in 1991. Later in the UK it was converted into a luxury yacht capable of accommodating 54 passengers.
14. Octopus - 126 meters. The giant yacht belongs to Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen. Most of the time she is moored in Antibes, France. It even has a landing pad for a helicopter!
13. Al Mirqab - 133 meters. In 2009, Al Mirqab won the title of "Motor Yacht of the Year" at the World Superyacht Awards. It is reported that it is capable of reaching a maximum speed of 20 knots.
12. Serene - 134 meters. All that is known about the yacht, built in 2011 for a mysterious Russian customer, is that it is the most large yacht, ever launched in Italy, where she was manufactured.
11. Rising Sun - 138 meters. Originally built for Oracle CEO Larry Ellison, the yacht passed into the hands of music mogul David Geffen in 2010.
10. Al Salmah - 139 meters. During construction, the yacht was given the code name "Mipos" - short for "Mission Possible" (Mission Possible). This is one of many superyachts on the list that belong to the Saudi royal family, in this case Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz.
9. Ocean Victory - 140 meters. Another yacht, all details about which are kept secret. Ocean Victory is rumored to have seven decks, six swimming pools and a “floodable garage.”
8. Yas - 141 meters. The yacht looks so futuristic that it would look right even in Star Trek. Yas was built in 2011 by Abu Dhabi MAR using materials from a Dutch naval vessel. Owner unknown.
7. El Horriya - 146 meters. The yacht was built in 1865 for the Ottoman governor. For 119 years she remained the largest yacht in the world.
6. Prince Abdulaziz - 147 meters. King's personal yacht Saudi Arabia Abdullah. It was reportedly worth $184 million in 1984. The interior of the wardroom is inspired by images of the Titanic.
5. Topaz - 147 meters. The yacht was built in Berlin in 2012 and cost the customer $527 million. On board there is a gym, cinema, jacuzzi and meeting room.
4. Al Said - 155 meters. The yacht, built in 2006 for Oman's Sultan Qaboos Al Said, boasts the highest displacement on the list at 15.85 tons. In addition, the yacht has its own concert hall, which can accommodate a 50-piece orchestra.
3. Dubai - 162 meters. Commissioned by Prince Jefri of Brunei in 1996, this gigantic yacht is now owned by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum. In addition to the usual trappings of luxury, Dubai has a 21-meter wide atrium designed to impress 24 guests (the number of people who can comfortably spend the night on the yacht).
2. Eclipse - 162.5 meters. The world's second largest superyacht was built in 2009 for Russian billionaire and Chelsea football club owner Roman Abramovich, and is rumored to have cost him $500 million. Every year it crosses the Caribbean Sea to take passengers to Abramovich's home on the island of Saint Barthelemy.
1. Azzam - 180 meters. The yacht was built by the German company Lurssen Yachts, whose shipyards produced six of the top ten yachts on this list. The owner of the world's largest private superyacht is unknown, although many speculate that he belongs to the royal family of Abu Dhabi. Azzam is valued at $600 million. According to rumors, the yacht hosts a submarine with its own missile defense system.

In 2016, the largest yacht in the world was launched. It belongs to Alisher Usmanov, whose fortune is currently estimated by Forbes magazine at $12.5 billion. It is called Dilbar and was built by the German shipyard Lurssen. She received her name in honor of the owner's mother. Before this, the largest yachts were considered to be those belonging to the Sultan of Oman and the Emir of Abu Dhabi, represented by the same company. The length of the new super yacht is 156 meters, displacement is 15,917 tons.

Technical characteristics and cost of the yacht

How much the largest yacht costs has not been officially disclosed, but according to experts, its price is approximately $600 million. It is equipped with a powerful 30,000 kW diesel-electric unit, which allows the ship to accelerate to a speed of 22.5 knots, which is 42 kilometers per hour. It is characterized by high environmental friendliness: modern high-efficiency carbon filters are installed to purify exhaust gases.
The largest yacht in the world is truly enormous in size and highly reliable. Its body is made of high-strength steel with aluminum superstructures, and over 1,100 km of wires were used for electrical wiring. total area internal premises amounted to 3800 square meters. 80 crew members and 40 other personnel are involved in servicing the vessel. It has everything for a comfortable and luxurious pastime: from expensive interiors, to elevators, a cinema and two helipads. The yacht is a record holder not only for its displacement: it has the largest swimming pool of its kind with a volume of 180 cubic meters. Dilbar can accommodate up to 40 guests at a time.
Construction of the largest yacht lasted 52 months. The millionaire did not chase records for length, but decided to build a ship that would have the maximum amount of internal space in the hull. This made it possible to equip it with everything necessary and avoid many problems associated, for example, with mooring. After all, not every port is capable of receiving vessels with dimensions of 150-180 meters, which are possessed by other largest representatives from the world of yachts. By the way, this owner already has a ship that is not much smaller in size, the length of which was 110 meters. Its value, according to various sources, is about 200 million euros. It also has a helipad, a sports and cinema hall, a swimming pool, and equipment for classes. aquatic species sports and much more.

Launching of the largest yacht on the water

Sardinia in August 2016. The descent took place on a special scale: there were many guests on board, for whom Robbie Williams, Charles Aznavour, Carla Bruni and Andrea Bocelli performed as specially invited performers. But, unfortunately, no one was able to find out any specific details about the event: the ship has a special security system that allows you to instantly track telephoto lenses and camera flashes. It is almost impossible to approach the ship from the sea on a boat for filming. Representatives of the millionaire refused any comments to reporters.
To date, the Dilbar yacht has already been recognized not only as the largest in the world, but also as the most beautiful and comfortable. It is not available for rent: only the closest friends and relatives of the millionaire have the opportunity to ride it. But there are many videos on the Internet in which “mere mortals” can see how the construction took place, as well as watch how this miracle rushes at great speed across the water area, cutting through the waves.
