#4. Superyacht A – $323 million
Although, relatively small (14 guests, 43 staff limit), it was relatively expensive as well… The Superyacht A was designed by Philippe Starck, this yacht is owned by Russian oligarch Andrey Melnichenko. No expense was spared, with the bath faucets worth a staggering $40,000 and the staircase banisters worth a further $60,000. Furthermore, the bed has a controller allowing it to be rotated to capture the perfect view for sunrise and sunset. Melnichenko is currently suing the Dutch paint corporation Akzo Nobel, as the yacht’s paint is not as reflective as had been stipulated in the design.
