Delivered in 2010 by Lloyd Werft, Luna is a 114.2-metre superyacht for sale that doesn’t have to try hard to catch the eye. At one time owned by Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich, her navy-almost-black hull and white superstructure present a striking figure on the water, nevermind her larger-than-life size. One of the world’s largest expedition yachts, Luna was penned by Newcruise and Donald Starkey and is currently undergoing an extensive refit. BOAT introduces seven facts you might not know about her…
Currently listed for sale as one of the world’s most expensive yachts for sale, Luna had a major price reduction of €70,000,000 in February 2026. Luna is on the brokerage market with Paul Moran and Lidia Tsareva of Eastwind Yachts, now asking €200,000,000.
1. Her €70M price drop is the biggest ever recorded
Announced in early February 2026, Luna received a major price reduction of €70,000,000. The reduction came eight months after she joined the market and marked one of the biggest price drops in yacht brokerage history, slashing 25.95 per cent off of her original asking price, according to BOATPro.
2. She has one of the largest swimming pools on a superyacht
Located on the low extended aft deck, Luna features a 12-by-five-metre pool that defies usual onboard swimming conventions. Of her many grand features, this is arguably the one that has made Luna most famous and serves as an unmissable focal point. The many sunpads that flank the pool make it easy for owners and lucky guests to bask in the sun.
3. Luna marked the second-largest expedition yacht at launch
Expedition yachts are generally large and robust by nature, but Luna’s incredible 5,655GT puts her above many other vessels in her class. When launched, Luna made headlines thanks to the celebrity of her first owner, Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich, who commissioned her as a replacement for his former exploration yacht Le Grand Bleu – but she was upgraded with many new features. Since the yacht's launch, her grandeur and prowess have endured – and she remains one of the most impressive explorer yachts in the world, keeping in the top 5 per cent by LOA.
4. She features twin helipads and resort-style amenities
With a capacity to host 18 guests on board, Luna speaks to an indulgent owner focused on comfort, entertainment and ease of access. Many yachts of her calibre feature a helipad, but few feature two. Her dual MCA-certified helipads are located forward and aft and she comes with a dedicated fire team and maintenance crew, as well as a full nighttime landing certification.
Meanwhile, interior space is allocated for a beauty salon and spa with steam bath, plunge pool and sauna, as well as a large gym area and even a conference room. The beach club and double garage housing her tender and water toys complete Luna’s entertainment portfolio. She makes it easy for owners to enjoy both business and pleasure at sea.
5. Her €50M refit gave her hull a major upgrade… and she is undergoing another
2014 saw Luna undergo an extensive €50,000,000 refit after a change in owner. This refit took her from the rugged explorer aesthetic desired by her first owner to a world-class yacht that you can’t help but gawk at. Her hull was painted and transformed into the signature “Luna Blue” with a mirror finish to really make her pop.
6. She is ice-class
Owing to her aforementioned refit, Luna was designed around a displacement ice-class steel hull. On top of this, she has a 9,500 nautical mile range, meaning that she can travel the far reaches of the world and brave extreme environments with ease and reliability.
7. She is the second-longest superyacht currently for sale
Luna is the second-largest superyacht in the world currently on the market (by length, anyway). She is only the second-largest by a tiny margin: the first is Pelorus with a length of 114.5 metres, whereas Luna has a length of 114.2 metres. She does, however, have Pelorus beat in terms of GT, sitting at 5,655GT rather than the latter’s 5,403GT.
