6 Of The Largest Yachts Ever Built

W hile gigantic and opulent aren't necessarily requirements for a naval vessel to be considered a yacht, the mere mention of a yacht is synonymous with both qualities. If someone tells all of their friends and associates that they own a yacht, it's probably going to be the largest and ritziest vehicle in their possession.

Even among yachts, though, there are some vessels out in the massive seas of the Earth that absolutely dwarf any ordinary country club yacht in terms of sheer size, weight, and carrying capacity. These vessels are owned by some of the wealthiest, most powerful individuals in the world, created to order by the most prominent and well-respected manufacturers just for them. When you set foot on one of these yachts, you're not just on a boat but standing on an entire floating mansion . Make sure you wipe your feet because you definitely can't afford the floor-cleaning price.

The Dilbar was manufactured by German builder Lürssen back in 2015 as part of a secret project known as "Project Omar." This vessel was constructed for and owned by Russian billionaire Alisher Usmanov, though due to sanctions imposed during the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the vessel was seized by German port authorities in 2022. The vessel still remains in German custody at the time of writing.

For an initial price tag of approximately $600 million, the Dilbar measures 156 meters in length, or 511 feet, making it the sixth longest yacht in the world. That comes with a gross tonnage of 15,917, making it a contender for the largest yacht based on sheer volume. A good amount of that substantial size is taken up by the world's largest yacht swimming pool, measuring in at 180 cubic meters. It also features a pair of bow and aft helipads, as well as a 30,000kw diesel-electric power plant.

Project Blue, or just Blue for short, was manufactured by German builder Lürssen and launched in 2022. The vessel was designed by famous yacht designer Terence Disdale, who has won awards around the world for his opulent yacht interiors and striking exteriors. The vessel was created for billionaire and Emirati politician Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan for an estimated price tag of over $600 million. If the yacht was constructed for any particular occasion, that occasion has not been revealed.

The Blue measures in at 160 meters, or 524 feet, with a total volume of 15,320 tons. While official blueprints and documentation of the Blue have not been publicly divulged, yacht experts estimate its passenger capacity to be around 48 guests, plus a full crew of 80. The Blue is equipped with high-performance MTU engines, providing a smooth cruising speed of 16 knots and a top speed of 20 knots.

The Dubai was launched after over 10 years in the bay in 2006. The vessel was initially assembled at the behest of Prince Jefri Bolkiah of Brunei in a joint effort between Blohm + Voss and Lürssen under the name Project Platinum. However, in 2001, the project was bought out by Platinum Yachts FZCO on order of the then and current ruler of Dubai, Sheik Mohammed Rashid al-Maktoum, who renamed the project after his own emirate and had it finished up. The Dubai remains in Sheik al-Maktoum's possession to this day, where it docks appropriately in Dubai.

The Dubai measures 162 meters long, or about 531 feet, with a gross tonnage of 13,470. This opulent vessel can accommodate about 72 guests, as well as comfortably house a crew of 115 in its 58 crew cabins. The inside of the Dubai is decorated like a stately manor, with the centerpiece being a beautiful circular glass-step staircase lit in a variety of changing colors. With a quartet of MTU diesel engines, this vessel can travel 8,500 miles at an impressive 25 knots, 26 if you really open it up.

Launched in 2010 by German manufacturer Blohm + Voss, the Eclipse currently maintains the honor of being the third-largest yacht in the entire world. The Eclipse is owned by Russian oligarch and billionaire Roman Abramovich. However, since the beginning of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, Abramovich has moved the Eclipse to various ports around the world in order to keep it from being seized due to sanctions.

The Eclipse measures in at 162.5 meters in length, roughly 533 feet, with a gross tonnage of 13,564. The vessel's main deck features a modular 52-foot-long swimming pool, which can be adjusted in length to fit the needs and number of passengers. The pool can also be completely covered with a blue granite floor cover to become a dance floor. Perhaps the most notable feature of the Eclipse, though, is its built-in self-defense systems, including a missile-detection system and missile launchers of its own.

Fulk Al Salamah

Originally announced in 2014 as "Project Saffron," the Fulk Al Salamah was launched in 2016 by Italian manufacturer Mariotti. The vessel is the property of Sultan Haitham bin Tariq, ruler of Oman, and is a part of the Oman Royal Yacht Squadron. The Fulk Al Salamah is used primarily as a "Royal Support Vessel," which means it travels around the world with the express purpose of fostering good relationships between the Sultan and other friendly countries. It also serves as a direct support to the head of the fleet, the Al Said.

The Fulk Al Salamah is currently the second largest yacht in the world, measuring 164 meters, or about 538 feet, with a gross tonnage of 20,361. Fittingly for a globe-trotting party ship, the Fulk Al Salamah comfortably houses 40 guests in lavish cabins alongside a full crew of 100. The highlight of the interior is a living museum of art, artifacts, and photos, all from Oman, intended to give passengers a glimpse into the Omani heritage and lifestyle.

Constructed by Lürssen and launched in 2013, the Azzam is not only the largest yacht that the manufacturer has ever made but also the current record holder for the largest yacht in the entire world. The Azzam was originally commissioned for the previous Emir of Abu Dhabi, Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan. However, after the Sheikh's passing, the vessel entered the ownership of Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, who serves as both the current Emir of Abu Dhabi and the President of the United Arab Emirates.

The Azzam's record-setting body measures in at a mighty 180 meters in length, or about 590 feet, with a gross tonnage of 13,136. With a combination of two gas turbines and two diesel engines, the Azzam can carve through the waves at 30 knots. The vessel can carry around 36 guests alongside a crew of 60. Since it's primarily the President's yacht, it is designed to offer unparalleled safety: the walls of the vessel's master suite are completely bulletproof and equipped with a state-of-the-art missile defense system.

With her length of 162 metres, Dubai is the largest yacht in the world. She was originally commissioned by a Prince from Brunei and she was to be built at Blohm & Voss in co-operation with Lürssen.

When a large part of the hull and superstructure of Project Panhandle/Golden Star was completed, the construction stopped and the unfinished yacht was sold to the ruler of Dubai.

Following the sale, the project was renamed Platinum and transported from Germany to Dubai for completion at the newly formed shipyard, Platinum Yachts. With eight decks, the Dubai can accommodate 115 people including a crew of 88. In addition to the swimming pool, Jacuzzis, helipad and multiple dining areas, saloons, guest and VIP suites, the yacht features two owner’s suites on the sixth and seventh decks and two heli-observations rooms on the seventh and eighth decks, Superyacht Times reports .

She has a maximum speed of 26 knots and a cruising speed of 25 knots with a range of 8,500 nautical miles.

However, the Dubai may not hold its world’s largest yacht title for long . The folks at Luxist point out though that Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich is planning a 555-ft yacht.

Platinum Yachts’ Project Triton Sets Design Standards

By Superyachts.com

Platinum Yachts has revealed exciting details about Project Triton and the inspiration behind the innovative 88 metre new build.

With a single deck engine room and foldable side Beach Platforms, Triton is paving the way for luxury yachts to be more spacious then ever. Platinum Yachts selected a design based on the newest styles and leading technology, whilst keeping the yacht to under 90 metres in length. Triton’s timelessly elegant exterior is the work of Sam Sorgiovanni Designs and Azure Naval Architects.

The 88 metre mega yacht’s intelligent design celebrates space and comfort, with a spacious interior and a large sundeck that can be converted into a fully-compliant heli-deck. There is also a tender garage and plenty of space water sports and diving equipment. Most notably, Triton has been designed with spacious side Beach Platforms, developed in collaboration with Azure Naval Architects and executed by German company Lindsteadt. “It’s an asset to the ship without interfering with the design” says Dirk Dejong of Platinum Yachts. “A large area where the owner and guests can enjoy a water sports orientated area very close to the water line; an area that you can utilize for diving trips. With this everything you need is together in one place”. These foldable Beach Platforms create spacious sunbathing areas without compromising with the yacht's interior volume.

Triton’s main deck accommodates six VIP suites with en suite bathrooms; main salon and dining area. The spacious owner’s suite with his and hers bathroom is located on the upper deck with a private forward facing sunbathing area with Jacuzzi and an informal salon, which can be converted into a cinema linked to the aft outside seating area. Designed for the owner by Platinum Yachts’ own design team, Triton’s interior will feature a glass elevator with open staircase to connect all five decks, creating a striking central feature.

With an emphasis on space and comfort, Triton has a full spa area on the bridge deck featuring sauna, Jacuzzi and massage room. On the sun deck there is plenty of sunbathing space with Jacuzzi, whilst forward facing seating offers fantastic views. Aft main deck there is a large swimming pool, with waterfall feature, surrounded by sun pads.

Run by Diesel-electric with a single deck engine room, Triton is the first of its kind. Dirk Dejong explains, “In the future there will be more interest in this, keeping the lower deck completely free”. With the single deck engine room, the lower deck has room for a guest Lazorrette with diving store; gymnasium with en suite; crew office and cabins; fully-equipped galley and laundry facilities.

Triton is the first of six innovative yacht designs and Platinum Yachts is currently in discussion with designers and prospective clients for the next exciting additions. Like Triton, each yacht will utilize the latest technology and maximize space and comfort. Each will have individually styled exteriors, in keeping with Triton’s timeless design.

"Triton is paving the way for luxury yachts to be more spacious then ever."

Project Cosmos: Inside the Construction of the 80 Metre Heesen Superyacht

The team behind the construction of the 80 metre all aluminium Project Cosmos , the largest yacht ever built by Heesen , has opened up about the in-build superyacht.

With exterior design by Winch Design , Project Cosmos has now begun outfitting after the joining of the hull and superstructure earlier this month. The yacht is on track for its scheduled launch date of November 19, 2021.

Speaking to  BOAT International  about the record-breaking yacht, Heesen’s director of sales and marketing Mark Cavendish revealed that Project Cosmos's owners “like this type of sleek, high-speed yacht”.

He predicted that Project Cosmos will be “one of the biggest and fastest yachts in the world”. Equipped with four MTU 4000 M73 engines totalling 19,000hp, Project Cosmos is estimated to achieve a top speed of just under 30 knots.

The “sleek, streamlined and sporty” exterior is paired with a “luxury interior”, Cavendish said, with “marble bathrooms and finely fitted furnishings”. Elsewhere, Project Cosmos will feature a helicopter platform at the bow and a large swimming pool and wellness centre aft.

“She’s every inch a high-end luxury yacht but just faster than the others,” he added.

Winch Design’s yacht exteriors associate James Russell added: “We wanted to create something fairly timeless that also retained the Heesen DNA.”

Both Cavendish and Russell discussed the greatest challenges in the design and construction of Project Cosmos. Cavendish said achieving a top speed of almost 30 knots was a key challenge.

“In order to make the boat go fast, you’ve got to keep the weight down and to do that the only material you can build in is aluminium,” Cavendish said.

However, the “softness” of aluminium posed challenges in achieving the necessary rigidity. “You really need to know how to construct it to maintain the rigidity and strength you need for a boat of this size,” he said.

As a result, the design team developed and patented a new method of naval architecture called the 'Backbone'.

“It’s more or less the same principal as the regular steel I-Beam girder,” Cavendish said. “We’ve got the two sides of the ship and then at the bottom we have the keel and they’re all linked through the structure in the middle that gives the rigidity and stops the boat from bending. All the strength is in the structure.”

The immense power of Project Cosmos’s propulsion package – four MTU 4000 M73 engines totalling 19,000hp – also caused challenges, Cavendish said.

The engines are connected in pairs to two gearboxes, resulting in two propellers, rather than four.

“We have two engines driving each gearbox and propeller so there’s a tremendous amount of power,” Cavendish explained.

To solve this, the team installed controllable pitch propellers that allow the captain to control the pitch and adjust the power.

“Otherwise, when you engage the thrust, they’ll be too much power going to each propeller,” Cavendish added.

Both Cavendish and Russell highlighted the yacht’s sundeck as a particularly impressive feature. Measuring 40 metres in length, the sundeck takes full advantage of the yacht’s 13.4 metre beam.

The yacht will also feature a movie screen at the bow that guests can watch from a seating area on the sundeck, which also features a dining table for 16 people.

“For me the sundeck is probably one of the best areas on the boat,” Cavendish added.

TVEL Fuel Company of ROSATOM has started gradual localization of rare-earth magnets manufacturing for wind power plants generators. The first sets of magnets have been manufactured and shipped to the customer.

In total, the contract between Elemash Magnit LLC (an enterprise of TVEL Fuel Company of ROSATOM in Elektrostal, Moscow region) and Red Wind B.V. (a joint venture of NovaWind JSC and the Dutch company Lagerwey) foresees manufacturing and supply over 200 sets of magnets. One set is designed to produce one power generator.

“The project includes gradual localization of magnets manufacturing in Russia, decreasing dependence on imports. We consider production of magnets as a promising sector for TVEL’s metallurgical business development. In this regard, our company does have the relevant research and technological expertise for creation of Russia’s first large-scale full cycle production of permanent rare-earth magnets,” commented Natalia Nikipelova, President of TVEL JSC.

“NovaWind, as the nuclear industry integrator for wind power projects, not only made-up an efficient supply chain, but also contributed to the development of inter-divisional cooperation and new expertise of ROSATOM enterprises. TVEL has mastered a unique technology for the production of magnets for wind turbine generators. These technologies will be undoubtedly in demand in other areas as well,” noted Alexander Korchagin, Director General of NovaWind JSC.

For the first time Rosatom Fuel Division supplied fresh nuclear fuel to the world’s only floating nuclear cogeneration plant in the Arctic

The fuel was supplied to the northernmost town of Russia along the Northern Sea Route.

project platinum yacht

The first in the history of the power plant refueling, that is, the replacement of spent nuclear fuel with fresh one, is planned to begin before 2024. The manufacturer of nuclear fuel for all Russian nuclear icebreakers, as well as the Akademik Lomonosov FNPP, is Machinery Manufacturing Plant, Joint-Stock Company (MSZ JSC), a company of Rosatom Fuel Company TVEL that is based in Elektrostal, Moscow Region.

The FNPP includes two KLT-40S reactors of the icebreaking type. Unlike convenient ground-based large reactors (that require partial replacement of fuel rods once every 12-18 months), in the case of these reactors, the refueling takes place once every few years and includes unloading of the entire reactor core and loading of fresh fuel into the reactor.

The cores of KLT-40 reactors of the Akademik Lomonosov floating power unit have a number of advantages compared to the reference ones: a cassette core was used for the first time in the history of the unit, which made it possible to increase the fuel energy resource to 3-3.5 years between refuelings, and also reduce the fuel component of the electricity cost by one and a half times. The FNPP operating experience formed the basis for the designs of reactors for nuclear icebreakers of the newest series 22220. Three such icebreakers have been launched by now.

For the first time the power units of the Akademik Lomonosov floating nuclear power plant were connected to the grid in December 2019, and put into commercial operation in May 2020. The supply of nuclear fuel from Elektrostal to Pevek and its loading into the second reactor is planned for 2024. The total power of the Akademik Lomonosov FNPP, supplied to the coastal grid of Pevek without thermal energy consumption on shore, is about 76 MW, being about 44 MW in the maximum thermal power supply mode. The FNPP generated 194 million kWh according to the results of 2023. The population of Pevek is just a little more than 4 thousand, while the FNPP has a potential for supplying electricity to a city with a population of up to 100 thousand people. After the FNPP commissioning two goals were achieved. These include first of all the replacement of the retiring capacities of the Bilibino NPP, which has been operating since 1974, as well as the Chaunskaya TPP, which has already been operating for more than 70 years. Secondly, energy is supplied to the main mining companies in western Chukotka in the Chaun-Bilibino energy hub a large ore and metal cluster, including gold mining companies and projects related to the development of the Baimsk ore zone. In September 2023, a 110 kilovolt power transmission line with a length of 490 kilometers was put into operation, connecting the towns of Pevek and Bilibino. The line increased the reliability of energy supply from the FNPP to both Bilibino consumers and mining companies, the largest of which is the Baimsky GOK. The comprehensive development of the Russian Arctic is a national strategic priority. To increase the NSR traffic is of paramount importance for accomplishment of the tasks set in the field of cargo shipping. This logistics corridor is being developed due regular freight voyages, construction of new nuclear-powered icebreakers and modernization of the relevant infrastructure. Rosatom companies are actively involved in this work. Rosatom Fuel Company TVEL (Rosatom Fuel Division) includes companies fabricating nuclear fuel, converting and enriching uranium, manufacturing gas centrifuges, conducting researches and producing designs. As the only nuclear fuel supplier to Russian NPPs, TVEL supplies fuel for a total of 75 power reactors in 15 countries, for research reactors in nine countries, as well as for propulsion reactors of the Russian nuclear fleet. Every sixth power reactor in the world runs on TVEL fuel. Rosatom Fuel Division is the world’s largest producer of enriched uranium and the leader on the global stable isotope market. The Fuel Division is actively developing new businesses in chemistry, metallurgy, energy storage technologies, 3D printing, digital products, and decommissioning of nuclear facilities. TVEL also includes Rosatom integrators for additive technologies and electricity storage systems. Rosenergoatom, Joint-Stock Company is part of Rosatom Electric Power Division and one of the largest companies in the industry acting as an operator of nuclear power plants. It includes, as its branches, 11 operating NPPs, including the FNPP, the Scientific and Technical Center for Emergency Operations at NPPs, Design and Engineering as well as Technological companies. In total, 37 power units with a total installed capacity of over 29.5 GW are in operation at 11 nuclear power plants in Russia. Machinery Manufacturing Plant, Joint-Stock Company (MSZ JSC, Elektrostal) is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of fuel for nuclear power plants. The company produces fuel assemblies for VVER-440, VVER-1000, RBMK-1000, BN-600,800, VK-50, EGP-6; powders and fuel pellets intended for supply to foreign customers. It also produces nuclear fuel for research reactors. The plant belongs to the TVEL Fuel Company of Rosatom.

These technologies will be undoubtedly in demand in other areas as well,” noted Alexander Korchagin, Director General of NovaWind JSC.
