The 50 biggest Superycahts In The world - Number 26 Tatoosh
Originally built for mobile phone magnate Craig McCaw, Tatoosh was built at Rendsburg in Germany by Nobiskrug and completed in June 2000.[2] Design and Construction by Kusch Yachts.[3] She was purchased by Paul Allen in 2001 at a reported cost of $100 million
The 50 biggest Superycahts In The world - Number 46 NAHLIN
Lady Yule ordered three small private cruise ships in 1929 from John Brown & Company, Clydebank with Nahlin being the first built. In 1934 Nahlin was classified as one of the biggest private cruise yachts ever built in the U.K. In 1936 Nahlin was chartered by King Edward VIII and used by him and Mrs. Wallis Simpson during their love affair. The yacht was bought in 1937 by King Carol of Romania for £120,000 and renamed Luceafarul,[1] and later Libertatea.
She was owned by the Romanian Ministry of Culture under order no. 3041[citation needed], and in service as a charter yacht, a sailing museum of yacht building and development[citation needed] as well as a floating restaurant on the river Danube.
After the Romanian revolution the yacht was sold to a privatised company and in 1999 Nahlin returned to British waters and today is registered in her home port of Glasgow. You can read the full article here
The 50 biggest Superycahts In The world - Number 29 Alfa Nero
ALFA NERO was launched to universal acclaim in 2007. She sailed off with every important award including Boat International's interior and exterior yacht of the year, Showboats' best yacht over 75 metres and Yachts International's most innovative yacht over 40 metres. In simple terms she was the finest new yacht in the world..
The upper deck is given over to the owner's residence. The aft deck includes settees that flank a skylight. The sky-lounge and dining room are surrounded with wenge panels and what has come to be known as the "golf ball" wall. Scalloped panels are covered in white lacquer with a mother-of-pearl look, giving the walls a textured effect reminiscent of abstract, flattened golf balls. The wall covering enlarges the room's appearance and sets the mood to that of a European nightclub even in the light of day. The swimming pool on the main deck converts to a heli pad which is one of the most innovative things seen on any yacht in the past.

Heavy Seas - Video Of Yachts At Sea IN huge waves
We feature tons of videos of yachts on this site and they are normally some of the most beautiful yachts in the world sailing on flat seas but I wanted to share some footage today that shows just how rough the seas can get out there sometimes and how dangerous it is for superyachts. These waves in the open seas show some crazy conditions.

Lürssen Yachts - Superyacht Video - Polar Star
POLAR STAR - "A yacht built for pleasure, yes, but above all other considerations a vessel intended for self-sufficiency during extended voyaging on the high seas."
A visitor comes away with one overwhelming impression: that this vessel was designed and built by the best in the business for an experienced owner with no doubt about how he wanted the completed boat to look and feel to those fortunate enough to work or cruise aboard her.

Dmitry Medvedev Buys Sirius Superyacht
Dmitry Anatolyevich Medvedev (Russian: Дми́трий Анато́льевич Медве́дев, tr.

Formula 1 Kimi Raikkonen Star Falls Off Superyacht Monaco
Thi is a video of the famous Formula 1 winner in what appears to be a holiday on a yacht sipping beer and getting a little tipsy. He then appears to slip on the superyacht and fall down and hit the deck. Not one of Kimi Raikkonen's best moments...
As a sports-hungry 11 year-old, Kimi Raikkonen’s youthful enthusiasm for karting quickly developed into his chosen career. The young Finn swiftly stamped his authority on the local opposition before making his mark in international events. Surprisingly, he never won a karting title, but his early racing days singled him out as a future star.
In 2000 - ten years after he had first got behind the wheel of a kart - Raikkonen made the switch to single-seaters. Choosing the UK Formula Renault series as his springboard, the previously title-less driver took the championship with seven wins, 316 points and six pole positions. Indeed, the Finn was so dominant that year, several Formula One teams, convinced of his raw talent, began to court him.
Sauber were the first to make a concrete offer and after a successful three-day test, Raikkonen landed a race drive with the Swiss squad for 2001. Given that he had only 23 single-seater race starts to his name, many questioned Peter Sauber’s confidence, but from the outset Raikkonen’s pace and consistency blew such criticisms out of the water. He ended his first Formula One season with nine championship points - and the admiration of much of the paddock, including, most notably, Ron Dennis.

The 50 biggest Superycahts In The world - Number 38 BASRAH BREEZE
Basra Breeze, the luxury yacht that once belonged to former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, arrives back in Iraqi waters.
The 50 biggest Superycahts In The world - Number 38 Alfa Nera
The Roman emperor Nero got a lot of bad press – some say unjustifiably so. When Rome burned, Nero was said to be playing the lyre. But Nero did take the opportunity to rebuild Rome in a more grandiose and stylish way. In a parallel fashion, the commissioning brief for Alfa Nero was the chance to look afresh at what a Mediterranean yacht could be.
The results have had yacht spotters – and, no doubt, the guests of Alfa Nero – in rapture ever since.
To say that the new approaches that Dutch shipbuilder Oceanco and Monaco-based designer Dan Lenard have incorporated into this superb 83-meter (269-foot) vessel have won immense admiration would be an understatement. Alfa Nero has garnered awards in Europe, the US and even Asia for a style that cuts through the white boat wedding cakes of the Mediterranean.
Setting aside traditional large motor-yacht design templates, they have come up with an utterly streamlined concept to realize the owner’s vision of closely linking the lives of those on board with the placid waters of the Mediterranean Sea that he loves so much
The 50 biggest Superycahts In The world - Number 39
Information on the superyacht owner, country, price, designer etc:-
The Emirate of Qatar is home to a growing yacht fleet that includes the recently delivered Al
Mirqab (No. 8), a shadow vessel, and two sisterships built by Oceanco. The A Group and
Jean-Pierre Fantini created Constellation’s minimalist interior. Twin 20-cylinder 10,000 hp
MTU engines and ample fuel reserves allow the yacht to cruise 5,000 nm at 20 knots.
The 50 biggest Superycahts In The world - Number 41 STARGATE
OceAnco designs and builds large luxury superyachts, employing the very highest standards of engineering, planning and craftsmanship, and allied to the most modern facilities.
Since changing ownership in 2002, OceAnco has strengthened its name within the superyacht community by launching a quartet of the world’s finest luxury yachts. The 62.6m (205.40ft) Lady Lola and 60m (197ft) Alfa Four were both recognized as the crème de la crème of the yachting world when they were launched respectively in 2002 and 2004. During summer 2005, OceAnco enhanced its reputation with the deliveries of Dilbar (66m/217ft) and Lady Christina (62m/204ft). Though distinct in appearance, each yacht reflects an innovative spirit of design and world-class construction. All have been built to the highest Lloyd’s and MCA standards at OceAnco’s Alblasserdam shipyard in The Netherlands.
OceAnco is currently building a Nuvolari & Lenard-designed 80m (262.48ft) superyacht, yard code Y701, scheduled for delivery in February 2007. Another Nuvolari & Lenard 82m (269ft) design, Y702, is being finished right beside the Sam Sorgiovanni 75.5m (248ft). They will respectively be delivered in summer 2007 and in spring 2008.
The Y704 (85.47m/278.85ft) has already started construction and engineering is well under way for four other OceAnco superyachts of 85m (278.85ft), 88m (288.75ft), 92m (301.85ft) and 100m (328.10ft).
