oats
Abramovich has become the world's greatest spender on luxury yachts, and had been linked to five boats in what the media have called "Abramovich's Navy":[79][80]
Eclipse – Her ultramodern design by Hermidas Atabeyki is similar to Pelorus, with even more aggressive lines and a tri-colour scheme,[81] with an interior like Pelorus by Terrence Disdale. Eclipse was built in Germany by Blohm + Voss, and was floated out in September 2009.[82] Abramovich was due to take delivery of the yacht on 22 December 2009,[83] was delayed, but was seen in January 2011 in Gustavia, St. Bartholemy, FWI. 170 metres (560 ft) in length,[82] She is believed to have cost Abramovich around US$1.2 billion, and is presently the world's largest privately-owned yacht as of 2009. The specification includes at least two swimming pools, two helicopter landing-pads, several on-board tenders and a submarine. She has been reported to have an "anti-paparazzi" photo-shield system installed.[82]


MV Pelorus after her 2004 refit to Abramovich's own requirements by Blohm & Voss
Pelorus (115 metres/377 feet long) – Built by Lurssen for another client who received six offers to sell her before she was even completed and accepted Abramovich's bid. The interior is very contemporary, designed by Terence Disdale, and images can be found on their website. Pelorus was refitted by Blohm + Voss in 2005 adding a new forward helipad (so guests can arrive without the owner's helicopter being moved) and zero speed stabilisers. She was partially refitted once again by Blohm + Voss in 2007–2008. In summer 2008 she was in the Western Med (South of France and Sardinia) and in December crossed the Atlantic with a stop-over on the Canary Islands. Abramovich often celebrates New Year's Eve in St Bart's.

Sussurro (50 metres/163 feet long) – built by Feadship in 1998 with the interior designed by Terence Disdale. Abramovich bought her from the same person who sold him Pelorus. She is permanently moored in IYCA, Antibes and is used as a tag-along to one of the larger yachts.[citation needed]

Some cool cars, too:
In 2004 Abramovich bought two Maybach 62 limousines. They were customized to be bomb & bullet-proof. They were reported to have cost £1 million (€1.18 million/US$1.65 million).[85] Abramovich also owns a Ferrari FXX, a US$2.2 million (€1.57 million) "racetrack-only" car, of which only 30 were built.[citation needed] He also owns a Bugatti Veyron (blue on black), Maserati MC12 Corsa, Ferrari 360, Porsche Carrera GT, Rolls Royce Corniche with the licence plate VIP 1, originally a Republic of Ireland registration, Porsche 911 GT1 and a Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR.[citation needed]

and a boeing 767
