super yachts 60million+
Discussion
I love this thread. Keep the pics coming!
I must say a friend of mine told me that "one's yacht isn't big enough until you can land a helicopter on it" hahaha
Saw Le Grand Blue and thought it looked RANK.
Dilbar looks nice I think.
And actually, that captain of industry who has been so honoured in the press recently, Mr (Sir) Phil Green, his new boat Lionheart looks fantastic too.

Not sure the upload will work from iPhone, but I used to live in Bermuda and the Eclipse could regularly be seen berthed there in its 'home' port. Not sure if Roman was ever on it while it was there, but apparently it had all manor of counter measures to attack on board...[url]

As a sad story - and I'm going to keep direct names and relations out of it for hopefully understandable reasons:
An immediate relative of mine was on the board of a company and friends with the son of a Super Yacht builder. He (the son) was the owner of one of the yachts - 85m, fuel capacity of 250k litres and a range of 70k miles.
His father was killed in the mumbai hotel terrorist attacks and everything was sold. The name lives on as a charter company. The yacht in question was sold for 85m gbp and refurbished / renamed in 2012.
Forgive me for being so vague - I hope you can understand the sensitivity. The yacht has its own wiki page and I have the charter brochure for her somewhere at home. She was offered to my sister and I as a wedding reception venue should either of us happen to get married - having looked at the charter brochure, that was a rather generous offer..!
I do love yachts but gosh I'm not sure I could swallow the ownership cost. A wander around Puerto Banus harbour is enough to realise there's a whole different world of wealth out there!

Sidetracking slightly, would anyone know very roughly how much a small yacht, maybe 50-60ft would cost to run in terms of fuel, and how much moorings would be in the med? At the very start of my journey to owning, so have absolutely zero idea of costs involved, or even legalities of traveling around the open waters!

A 70k range? Can that be right? An immediate relative of mine was on the board of a company and friends with the son of a Super Yacht builder. He (the son) was the owner of one of the yachts - 85m, fuel capacity of 250k litres and a range of 70k miles.
