Perhaps, this is the world’s biggest yacht. Named the Eclipse and created for the famous millionaire Roman Abramovic, the dreamboat made it appearance at the Blohm & Voss shipyard in Hamburg recently. We hear that the yacht was undergoing construction secretly at that very port for the last two years. Measuring 170-meters, this one features 2 helipads, 20 water jets, a pool with large Havana bars surrounding it, a cinema, library, restaurant, private garden, 5,000 square feet master suite and private submarine boarding from the bottom of the yacht for a secret escape.
The yacht consists of 9 decks and has five possible exits, and so has even surpassed vessels like the Platinum 525, which previously held the title of the biggest yacht in the world. The cost price of the Eclipse is $350 million and will be delivered to her owner by 2010.
The Russian oligarch for whom the yacht is being made was in news for all the wrong reasons. Apparently, he even slipped to #51 on the prestigious Forbes World’s Billionaires 2009 list thanks to the disastrous performance of the company Evraz at which he had a huge stake. So, hopefully Eclipse will put an eclipe to all his woes so that he can soak in the sun totally king-size.
