This yacht is estimated to be worth about $590 million and is one of the most expensive in the whole world. It is 162.5m long which gives it the second place when it comes to size. It is powered by diesel-electric system with dual propulsion and t has four engines. This makes it possible for the yacht to travel at a max speed of 25 knots and to cruise at the speed of 22 knots. It can carry a million liters of fuel in its tank at a time which makes it possible to to go on for 6,000 nautical miles before the tank needs to be refilled. While we’re talking about big numbers, it can also carry more than 150,000 liters of drinkable water. Roman Abramovich has owned this yacht since 2010. This piece of art is as luxurious as they get, equipped for water sports and all kinds of adventures as well as a wonderful mean of transport to any destination.

It was built by Blohm + Voss, which is a German shipbuilder. This company that comes from the UK also took care of the interior. The construction and design took about 5 years. Everything was done in secrecy and the details of how it was constructed are not available to the public. It was also tested multiple times to make sure it was perfect before being delivered. It weighs 13000 tones and offers a system with maximum speed performance. It has a displacement steel hull and features an aluminum superstructure and wooden decks. It has everything it needs to provide max comfort both when it’s on the move and when it is standing still.

This titan of a yacht has 9 levels, swimming pools, a helicopter deck that can fit up to three helicopters at the same time and even a disco club. One very interesting feature of the swimming pool is that it can turn into a dance floor. You heard it right!

If media is to trust, there have also been reports that Roman Abramovich asks for about £175,000 a day if you wish to rent out his vessel for just one day.
