Global is one of the newer entries on this list, having joined the market for the first time in March 2024 fresh from a "meticulous refit". An enticing beach club with sauna and massage room, a nightclub, cinema plus a helicopter deck are the standout features of the six-deck superyacht. Her "wine lounge", arranged with an 19-seater table and ten wine coolers adjacent, is also worth noting. Accommodation is for a party of 12, including an on-deck, full-beam master suite with Jacuzzi bath and his-and-hers private balconies.

What impresses first about Moonstone is her tech capabilities. The superyacht is equipped with a hybrid propulsion system and a WASSP multi-beam sonar system that produces high-resolution bathymetric scanning, mapping out a live 3D view of the ocean floor. Though her leisure amenities are equally noteworthy, encompassing a sundeck with Jacuzzi, gym and massage room and an owner's cabin with Mongolian marble in the bathroom. Accommodation is for a party of 12.

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.

Delivered in 2006, Lioness V  was described by the broker as a "milestone for Benetti and the industry alike" – though her layout benefits from a "proven format", particularly in the main saloon, dining area and upper deck. The main saloon opens up to the aft deck arranged with full bar, lounge area and extra wide staircase that leads down to the swim platform. An interesting perk is found up on the sundeck, arranged with a plunge pool, sunpads and an automated golf Tee-it driving range. A gym, steam room and shower are also to hand. The superyacht was listed for sale for the first time in September 2023.

In 2017 (a year after her launch), Samurai was nominated for a Showboats Design Award. The superyacht has also proven to be a successful charter platform, thanks to her 1,029GT volume and four convertible guest cabins. The master cabin measures 87.1 square metres and features its own lounge area and architectural skylight. Other perks include a spacious sundeck with Jacuzzi pool, a gymnasium and a folding swim platform for easy access to the water – complemented by the yacht's impressive variety of watertoys.

The tour de force onboard Ambrosia is her "Stargate Room" on the upper deck, which features a special lunar theme while functioning as both an informal dining room and a cocktail lounge. Constellations of the night stars in both the northern and southern hemispheres adorn the room's ceiling. Powered by electric motors linked to the yacht's GPS, this decoration changes in relation to where Ambrosia happens to be on the world's oceans. She features diesel-electric Azipod propulsion, anchorless dynamic positioning, infra-red navigation and one of the most extensive entertainment and communication systems ever installed on a yacht. Ambrosia's Art Deco-inspired interior can accommodate 12 guests in six cabins.

The custom-built Astrid Conroy has accommodation for 10 guests across five cabins, not including the main deck master. A spa, gymnasium, wood-clad Jacuzzi and wine cellar with seating comprise the superyacht's list of amenities, while an interior refit by Michela Reverberi in 2018 resulted in a brand-new cinema being installed. Her most recent refit was completed in 2023.
