The lavish boat can only be made to order and it’s predicted to set you back around £151 million.
STUNNING new images of a superyacht, which is being designed for billionaires and allows people to paddle in the ocean without leaving the ship, have been unveiled. The 108 meter boat, which Roman Abramovich himself would be tempted to purchase, has an outside space at the stern and allows the sea water to gently splash aboard.
It also has an enormous hole in the centre, to allow riders to “interact with nature” while they are preened, pampered and entertained in the luxury facilities. Other bonuses of the super yacht include a helipad, two swimming pools (including a 20 meter lap pool that runs down the main deck), a zen garden and 300 square meters of high-efficiency solar panels.
The lavish mega yachts will be made to order by Norwegian design firm Hareide Design and they describe it as embracing the “elegance and modernity of Scandinavian design” with eco-friendly elements. “We want to shift the focus from extrovert admiration, to creating a platform for actively experiencing the beauty of nature and the changing elements,” announced the company in a release.
For anyone considering buying one of the opulent yachts, it’s predicted that each one will set you back at least £151 million, with the chance that they could be even more.
Last month Lionel Messi set rumours alight that he might be leaving Barcelona to join Cheslea, after his dad Jorge held talks with Roman Abramovich on his yacht. The vessel, named The Eclipse, is an astounding 557 feet high, 536ft long and 72.2ft wide, making it the second largest yacht in the world.
On board, the lavish yacht boasts two swimming pools, two helicopter pads, a disco, about 30 cabins, a small submarine and a missile defence system. But not to be outdone, Arsenal co-owner Alisher Usmanov attempted to outdo his Chelsea rival by splashing out around £350million on the biggest superyacht on the planet.
The jaw-dropping footage shows hundreds of staff working on the construction of the mega yacht– almost exactly one and half times the length of the Gunners’ Emirates football pitch. The ‘Dilbar’ is the biggest yacht in the world by gross tonnage, with a total volume of 15,917 tonnes – almost 3,000 more than Abramovich’s prized asset, the ‘Eclipse’.
The ‘Dilbar’ is estimated to be the fourth longest in the oceans, with Abramovich’s 162.5-metre monster second only to the ‘Azzam’ – owned by the royal family of Abu Dhabi.
