Yacht-a, yacht-a, yacht-a.
Experts at Ritzy Charters have revealed a list of the 10 most expensive yachts afloat — and the top three are worth a whopping $1.29 billion combined, exceeding the GDP of some smaller countries.
“Luxury yachts are more than just a symbol of wealth; they not only provide incredibly gorgeous views but a level of privacy to those onboard who want a sense of relaxation that you can’t get from anywhere other than chartering across oceans,” a spokesperson for the company said in a statement.
#1 David Geffen, “The Rising Sun”
Riding high at the top of the list is media magnate David Geffen’s The Rising Sun, worth a jaw-dropping $590 million.
Originally owned by tech mogul Larry Ellison, the superyacht cost an estimated $200 million to build back in 2004. The classy craft measures more than 452 feet long and features a basketball court, a helicopter landing pad and a wine cellar — even a movie theater.
Boldfacers who’ve accepted invitations to sail on the elite vessel include Oprah, Stephen Spielberg, Barack Obama and Julia Roberts.
Geffen purchased the vessel — which holds 18 guests and 55 crew members in its 82 rooms — in 2010.
#2 Jeff Bezos, “Koru”
Second on the list is the Koru, owned by none other than Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.
