$1 BILLION
While it’s yet to be built, the
ultramodern Admiral X Force
145 has been fully designed
and engineered. Expect-
ed to measure 456 feet,
the palatial vessel should

two helipads.
AZZAM

Lurssen’s most ostentatious
megayacht, the Azzam is
the world’s largest, and then
some, measuring a whopping
590 feet. In service since

was commissioned by the
President of the United Arab
Emirates, Sheikh Khalifa,
and has its very own missile
defense system, as well as a
bullet-proof master suite.
RIPLE DEUCE
$1 BILLION
Scheduled for completion in
2018, the colossal $855 million
(£684m) Triple Deuce will be
728 feet long, making it the
largest yacht in the world when
it launches. Guests will have
their pick of the giga-vessel’s
various VIP suites and top-end
amenities, which include two
huge swimming pools, multiple
hot tubs and a plush spa.
TOPAZ
$527 MILLION
Launched in 2012, Abu Dhabi
tycoon Sheikh Mansour owns
this jaw-dropping 482-foot
megayacht, which was char-
tered by Leonardo di Caprio in
2014. It features all the usual
billionaire mod cons, includ-
ing three swimming pools, a
jacuzzi, movie theater and
helipad.

investment. The gargantuan
vessel, designed by Chris-
topher Seymour, will tower
88 feet above the waves
