Who owns the world's most expensive yacht? 55

 

 

There are only a handful of luxury yachts sailing the world’s oceans today. Each one is unique in its way, much like the often-mysterious owners at the helm. You would think that, with a $5 billion yacht, you would want to show off your achievements, but most want to escape from the trouble of the world and enjoy a cruise in luxury and style.

 

Oh, and sail in style they do. With solid gold paneling, bulletproof windows, helicopter power connections, marina power connectors, onboard voltage regulators, and miniature landmarks from countries such as Monaco, these yachts were built to impress anyone lucky enough to set foot on the deck.

Solid. Gold. At $4.8 billion, the History Supreme, owned by Robert Knok, is the world’s most expensive, largest superyacht in the whole world. At 100 feet in length, History Supreme took three years to build, using 10,000 kilograms of solid gold and platinum, both of which adorn the dining area, deck, rails, staircases, and anchor. If that weren’t luxurious enough, the master suite features a meteorite rock wall, a statue made of Tyrannosaurus Rex bones, a 68 kg 24-carat gold Aquavista Panoramic Wall Aquarium, and a liquor bottle adorned with a rare 18.5-carat diamond.

At an impressive 500 feet in length, the Streets of Monaco luxury yacht manages to pack in numerous miniatures of renowned landmarks from throughout Monaco. But that’s not all.
