The yacht of all yachts!
 
I just had to post these recent pictures that I found of the Eclipse, it is just ridiculous!

Definetely not the most estethic (far from) but my god it's HUGE! You barely notice the people standing on deck. I wounder how his next yacht will look like, talk about hybris..

Bigger isnt always better, that thing does not look very relaxing

Isn't it supposed to have anti-paparazzi technology?

That said, my favorite yacht is still the Wally 118.

nice place to play hide and seek :)

I read somewhere that the yacht in question costs about $200,000 in maintenance a month - whether you use it or not.

I think its considerably more Dana.

They usual running costs are about 10% of the purchase price annually.

I agree.

What I read was that $200,000 is the bare minimum - if you don't use it at all.

Doesn't the owner employ a staff of about 40 people full-time just to wait until he wants to take it out??

10% of price for maintenance.

All superyachts of this caliber have a full time staff.

Friends of mine work aboard alot of the bigger ones. They'll go to port ( to say St Tropez ) and all go around the hottest clubs to hold positions/ tables at clubs incase the owner feels like partying. If not, they'll come back to ship.

In addition to the crew, there is the docking fees of about approximately 50-75k every month.
