The 50 most expensive yachts for sale now

How much does a superyacht cost? The answer is not so simple. Much like a luxury watch or car, the asking price depends on a variety of factors such as age, pedigree and finish, with the largest and newest vessels peaking into the hundreds of millions. To give you a better idea, BOAT International rounds up the 50 most expensive yachts currently listed for sale, starting with Lady Lara...

Sparta

POA with Arcon Yachts

Builder: Heesen
Length: 67m
Designer: Winch Design

Sparta has now overthrown Lusine as the Dutch builder’s largest steel yacht. Characterised by a low exterior profile and a hull accented in “Venetian red” and metallic grey, the shipyard claims that little has changed since the initial sketches were presented except for modifications to the aft deck pool, which now stretches to 6.5 metres. Accommodation is for a maximum of 14 people across seven cabins, with her elemental interiors – including a master cabin modelled after "air" – recently revealed to BOAT International.

Planet Nine

Asking €85,000,000 with Fraser
Credit: Thierry Ameller

Builder: Admiral - The Italian Sea Group
Length: 73.2m
Designer: Tim Heywood, Admiral Engineering, Mlinaric, Henry & Zervudachi

Planet Nine’s meticulous owner ensured that she was built to cruise the waters of Greenland, Antarctica and everywhere in between with ease. This is realised in the specially-designed ice-classed hull, constructed with thick hull plates, strong frames and bulkheads, and careful protection for her seawater intakes, to protect from cold temperatures and deal with sea ice up to 15 centimetres thick. Guests can enjoy 180-degree-views from the forward observation lounge, take a dip in the sundeck Jacuzzi, or relax in the spacious cinema. The dedicated owners' deck also comes complete with its own private lounge, terrace and study. The superyacht made an appearance in Christopher Nolan's mind-bending blockbuster Tenet.

Builder: Oceanco
Length: 80m
Designer: Nuvolari Lenard, Azure Yacht Design and Naval Architecture, Alberto Pinto

Commissioned by a "very experienced, highly discerning owner", Y701's angular exterior belies a considerable internal volume of 2,310GT.

The space features a private lounge, an office and a his and hers bathroom with a large central bath. There is also direct access to the Portuguese bridge and private terrace with two Jacuzzis. Another highlight is the main deck wellness spa, which includes a gym with "spectacular views", a buffet, a bar, medical room, beauty salon and massage room.

Asking €79,000,000 with Moravia Yachting

Builder: Abeking & Rasmussen
Length: 85.7m
Designers: Reymond Langton Design, Brian Callahan, Winch Design

Delivered in 2006, B2 remains the shipyard's third largest superyacht. A four-million-euro refit in 2020 saw her hull extended by seven metres allowing for a vast beach club that opens on three sides and a glass-bottom swimming pool that sits laterally across the main deck. Additional highlights include a sundeck Jacuzzi, an outdoor cinema, a fully-equipped gym and a dedicated massage room. Designed to be used as a multigenerational family yacht, accommodation is for 22 guests with an elevator serving each level right up to the sundeck.

Stella M

Asking €77,500,000 with Burgess

Builder: Amels
Length: 60m
Designers: Tim Heywood, Reymond Langton Design

"There are many features of this design that bring a smile to my face," said Stella M's exterior designer Tim Heywood. The superyacht's highlights are aplenty, including a cavernous 1,015GT interior, an eco-friendly hybrid propulsion package and an elevator whisking guests between four decks. An air-conditioned gym with massage room sits on the sundeck alongside a large Jacuzzi, double sunpad, buffet bar and a wet bar with glass handrails to protect the view. Down below, Stella M's beach club is arranged with a sit-up wet bar, sauna, steam shower and changing room. Accommodation is for up to 14 guests in six suites.

Predator

Asking €69,000,000 with SuperYachtsMonaco

Builder: Feadship
Length: 72.8m
Designers: Feadship De Voogt, Bannenberg & Rowell

One for the history books, Predator is not only the first Feadship to be delivered with a reverse bow but broke several other records at the time of her launch in 2008, leading to a World Superyacht Award in 2009. At the time, she was one of the quietest Feadships ever built – despite her four-engine propulsion package – and had the tallest engine room of any Feadship and the longest uninterrupted interior views of any yacht in her class. The superyacht also comes with two custom "mini Predator" style tenders and a helipad. Predator has had only two owners since new and benefitted from an interior refit in 2016 that saw her guest accommodation refreshed.

Artisan

Asking €65,000,000 with Burgess and Royal Yacht International

Builder: Benetti
Length: 63m
Designer: Espen Øino, Winch Design

Delivered in 2019, Artisan won a World Superyacht Award in 2020 for Best Exterior Design. The superyacht blends powerful performance with vast 1,245GT of internal living space, which feels surprisingly spacious considering her sleek profile. Accommodation is for a party of up to 12 guests in seven cabins, including a generous 160-square-metre master suite that overlooks a private bow terrace with intimate seating and sunpads. Perched just above the bridge deck, the forward fly deck is home to an enclosed gym and yoga studio, as well as a forward "love nest" to unwind in – a lofty area with a round outdoor sofa.

Calypso

Asking €40,000,000 with Y.CO

Builder: Amels
Length: 61.5m
Designers: Michael Leach Design

Calypso stands out thanks to her voluminous, "lavish" interiors, including a spectacular two-level master suite at main deck level. Stretching to the yacht's full beam, this suite is described as a "sanctuary" and sports an overhead skylight. Leach rarely holds back on ceiling heights and Calypso's is 4.2 metres high here. Meanwhile, the sundeck is split into three sections: a lounge seating and Jacuzzi area; an enclosed, air-conditioned gym; an open space designed for sunbathing or al fresco workouts, which also has an outdoor cinema set-up.

Marguerite

Asking $39,900,000 with Moran Yacht & Ship

Builder: Lürssen
Length: 60.7m
Designer: Winch Design, Espen Øino International

Marguerite was built under the supervision of the Moran new construction team, with a design brief that requested a private owner’s area, professional dive centre, hefty tender storage and the ability to cruise for thirty days at a time. The owner's cabin is a particular highlight, spanning two decks and designed with an observation lounge, access to a private foredeck and a floating staircase that leads to an upper deck study. The yacht benefitted from a full interior refit after a change in ownership at the end of 2021.

Connection with the outdoors is further encouraged with her sundeck, designed with an infinity pool, a hot tub and a lounge area. Indoors, the yacht's airy, open-plan layout is arranged with a "voluminous" main saloon and formal dining area. Accommodation is across five cabins.
