The most expensive superyacht for sale is Lady Lara, which has joined the market for the first time since her delivery in 2015. She boasts a range of entertainment amenities, including two swimming pools – the largest of which can be transformed into a dance-floor – and a custom surround sound set-up. The second pool is found on the sundeck with a swim-up bar, with a large day bed and sun lounger also on this level. Accommodation is for a total of 16 guests across eight cabins and the master suite is positioned on a dedicated owner's deck. It includes a private exterior terrace accessible from the cabin, a library, his and hers bathrooms and dressing rooms.

Pelorus was delivered in 2003 as the 11th largest superyacht in the world and easily the largest yacht to be built by Lürssen at the time. She was commissioned by a Saudi businessman who enjoyed a single cruise aboard his new vessel before a new buyer made an offer too good to refuse. Exterior designer Tim Heywood stocked the yacht with a top deck lido featuring two swimming pools, two helicopter pads and a vast sea-level platform that is revealed by opening the transom. The immense task of designing the interior was carried out by Terence Disdale, who opted to use natural materials wherever possible to maintain a "casual" atmosphere to offset the yacht’s imposing frame. Pelorus can welcome 18 guests with room for an additional 46 crew members.

Constructed to Lloyd’s classification, Aurora's key figures include an impressive volume of 2,113GT (split across four decks) and a beam of 13.2 metres, while a crew of 22 waits on an owner’s every need. 1920s Art Deco-inspired interiors house up to 16 guests in eight stately cabins. Among these is the private owner’s suite which features wraparound views and access to a private lounge foredeck. She also features an intimate top deck observation lounge with a daybed and a lounge with three bar stools forward, while a gym and Jacuzzi are found aft.

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.

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.

Delivered in 2005, Moonlight II is passenger-ship certified and can host up to 36 guests across 18 staterooms. During a refit period between 2014 and 2015, she was extended by 6.1 metres resulting in additional exterior spaces. Her 14-metre beam results in a spacious owner's apartment (with private access to a Jacuzzi) and plenty of spaces for entertaining, such as the skylounge with games room and bar. A vast beach club, cinema, grand piano and elevator to all decks are other standout features. Irish Boxer Conor McGregor was spotted holidaying on the superyacht in 2021.

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.

Delivered in 2011 as the Turkish shipyard's flagship, Talisman C is the second in the fleet to bear the name. The original owner was looking to upgrade from a 54.2-metre to a larger vessel that could carry more tenders and toys. The result? A full-width aft garage that can accommodate a 7.7-metre Ski Nautique Super Air for powered sports, a seven-metre Novurania Chase 23 tender and a Narwhal rescue tender. A split-level master suite sits forward on the main deck and is described by the broker as having a "boudoir décor", with voile curtains around the king-sized bed and crystal chandeliers as bedside reading lights. Other highlights include a crow's nest observation lounge and a gym and wellness area with dedicated massage table and beauty salon.

Commissioned by an experienced owner looking to upgrade in size, this custom-built superyacht has only been privately and lightly used since new. My Legacy's standout feature is her interior decòr, which incorporates rich, damask fabrics with a jewel-toned colour palette of reds and blues. Up top, her substantial sundeck is arranged with a bar, sunloungers and a pool flanked by sunpads and sheltered by a windscreen.

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.
