The 10 most expensive luxury yachts in the world & who own them (With Pictures)

5. Serene – $330 Million

The Serene is 134 meters long and is owned by Russian founder of the SPI Group, Yuri Scheffler, who is worth an estimated $800 million. Among the yacht’s features are an “underwater viewing room,” an indoor climbing wall, a children’s playroom, and enough cabins to accommodate 24 guests as well as 52 crew members.

When the yacht arrived in New York last year, concern started to rise because of its presence. However, according to CNBC, Americans had nothing to worry about as Scheffler was there on business and had publicly fought Vladimir Putin for years (as he wanted to seize Scheffler’s company to “renationalize” it). A warrant was even issued for Scheffler’s arrest in 2003, when he continuously refused to give away his company.
