"Carrying a submarine and her own missile defense system, it will still travel in excess of 32 knots powered by a combination of two gas turbines and two diesel engines with a total power output of 70 MW (94,000 hp)"

Azzam is not the largest yacht in the world , it is the longest , largest yachts by volume are Al said and dilbar , this idea to say which yacht is bigger based on it's length only without taking the beam into consideration is very misleading .

The 1% Elite are the only ones that will ever have things like this unless the other 99% wake up and stop allowing these Rich Elites to keep us all in slavery and the only way to achieve that is to STOP using Credit Cards do not Finance anything do not pay one penny of interest.  If we would all stay home from work 1 day and do not buy any GAS FOOD or do any shopping it would send a message to the ELITE, imagine if we all did this for 7 days then imagine 30 days we would cause Wall Street to CRASH and the BANKERS would FALL DOWN.  We should remove all money from the banks as well.  This world is getting ready for a shift.  The Elite are putting the ONE WORLD GOV in place.  But we are all to comfortable with our faces buried in our iPhones while driving cars and walking down the streets , people cannot even eat dinner without holding their iPhones.  WAKE UP.  MY REASON FOR COMMENTING is THIS:  They float around wasting so much GASOLINE and yet they tell us to conserve that we are causing GLOBAL WARMING?  the 99% need to conserve?  When they are floating on these mega yachts wasting gasoline yet they say the 99% of the human population should CONSERVE.   WE have cities that tell us that we cannot water our lawns because there is not enough water in CA.  Yet they have all the wealth to ride around in these. massive yachts while telling us to conserve.  What a JOKE. #SLAVES2THEELITE1%

Sometimes less is more and that is a fuel guzzeling maintenance
nightmare. Nothing beats the simple freedom of a much smaller boat with
the unlimited range of clean travel and reliability that a sail offers.
Park it at a city pier and maybe market it as a multi-unit floating condo.

+Robin T I think people buy yachts mainly for the prestige when a yacht is purchased you usually pay %20 of the price it cost to make the total yacht on maintenance and paying the crew and engineers of the yacht. Such a purchase is just riddled with a sign reading "I'm gonna fucking bankrupt your arse if you buy me..." on these yachts. Which is why you don't see every multi-billionaire or millionaire with a yacht.

+carkod for a really long time, paying the crew that maintenance, monitors and administer the yacht costs about %20 of the price it cost to build the entire yacht.

Zbriu
Zbriu - 7 years ago
The only one entitled to evaluate if buying a ship like this is a waste of money or not, is the person buying it. All others should be thankful that he "put back" on the market something like 600 million dollars. That money goes to a company that has a lot of employees with families. All the materials, electronics, every part of that ship, in some way, came from suppliers who also have employees with families.
Just think of the amount of money the owner of a super yacht like this one "scatters" among companies around the world!
Anual expenses with a "common" super yacht (Azzam costs more than this...):
Fuel: $200,000
Dockage: $350,000
Vessel insurance: $240,000
Maint./Repairs: $1M
Crew: $1,4M
Maybe the owner of one of the companies that got a share of this money, was able to open that restaurant where you go on Sundays and speak wonders of the food. So the next time you go to a restaurant, remember that you could have done diner at home, the restaurant was your "little" luxury. Yet you pay for the meal and help the man's bussiness. Just as the rich guy who bought the boat.
People can complain about billionaires bussiness practises or the way they manage employees or whatever, but buying over-priced luxury items like this is actually good for the society.

Good for the rich. How many jobs did this purchase support? How many jobs did it create? Remember when the Clinton administration decided on the luxury tax? I was around a few people that while the 10% really didn't make a difference on whether or not they could afford it they were just tired of being picked on! Boat business went out of business, high-end car dealerships went out of business. Bush 1 was trapped into cutting T&E write off. Liberals thought it was terrible people could get together over a dinner to discuss business and get to write it off. Do you know how many NYC restaurants went out of business after that? How many cut back hours, employees?

to share their wealth with people who sit on their ass looking for a free handouts .


Okay I've got it ... if a rich man goes broke will the poor people help him pay off his debts . I didn't think so , it's a one way street for bitter lazy people , yeah rich people should pay more to the poor people unless they goes broke , then they are on their own .

How much harder must a CEO be working if the salary is 1.000 times higher than that of a nurse? I guess, that debunks the myth of the idea, that so much money was "earned" (by hard work - if hard work is an indicator, than more nurses would be millionaires).
So, in the end it all comes down to the lottery of life. I am not saying work is unimportant, I am merely saying its not the most important factor. ;-)

It is divided equally. Money get creates out of thin air....you can get it just like the rich did. BUT you have to get off your ass, help people, take risks and work hard and smart. Most people are too lazy so they remain poor and complain on the internet about how evil the rich are and how the wealth should be divided. Take money away from a rich person and they will be rich again, same with poor people. Distribution and equality is a pipe dream of leftist losers.......communism and socialism are just as, if not more corrupt than capitalism.....that's why they always fail

Interesting comment by the CEO at around the 7 minute mark, where he is discussing the length (LOA) of the vessel and commenting that the foreship is some 60 metres in length. The comments come across in a somewhat defensive tone, as if he is trying to play down the "size isn't everything" interpretation. Except, in this one case, he might be wrong...

The "maximum hull speed" - i.e. the maximum speed in knots that a vessel can travel (without planing) is a function of the submerged length. See here

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hull_speed

In simple terms, the maximum speed in knots is equal to 1.34 x the Square Root of "Length at the Waterline" (measured in feet) and computed in knots.

According to her Wikipedia page, Azzam's length is quoted at 590 feet. On that basis, then, her maximum speed in knots would be 1.34 x 24.289915603 (square root of 590) which is 32.5485 knots... The same Wikipedia page suggests that her actual top speed is 30 knots. That is a remarkable feat of engineering for any sea-going vessel, doubly so for a private yacht.

Wouldn't want to be paying her fuel bill though...

The maintenance on this thing would be insane. 1 million per year easily. All of the people I mentioned would need to be full-time. He would need Human Resources to simply manage his boat personnel. He would also need a dedicated accountant just to manage his boat costs. He would also need full-time security. Just in this list 20 people he would need to manage this thing properly. He could single-handedly support a small town just with his boat maintenance. Amazing.

Listed as a charter but not being chartered..... that's how you avoid paying taxes on the ship. Yeah, we should be grateful, sure. Normally I'd go along with the idea that wealth creates jobs and constructs works such as Azzam, but don't sugarcoat it if the thing is set up under a tax shelter that others don't have the option of using.

What I find strange about this one is that it just seems to be big, but doesn't show any of the usual amenities and features you normally would expect of a mega yacht, like a swimming pool, a whirl pool, a big sun deck, a bathing platform, a hub for smaller boats and water scooters and stuff like that. This looks like a yacht build for somebody who thought he just needed a giant yacht but had no actual interest in doing and enjoying any of the things people usually do with giant yachts.
This looks like a swimming office building.

jpracingph
jpracingph - 10 years ago
Let's do the math. If you were a run of the mill billionaire with about $5B in the bank, it would take more than 10% of your wealth to build the yacht plus another 1% of your wealth a year (Thats 10% of the cost of the yacht which is the maintenance standard) to keep her in good order not including gas. 
If you had $5B and earned a return of 5-10% a year on that $5B, then you can afford it but it would be expensive.
So, regular billionaires need not apply. :)
Minimum net worth of $10B to make this yacht a luxury you can afford without feeling it.

Yacht owners should not be criticized for when they do spend money. It is after all their money and they have the right to enjoy it. However the fact remains that those with resources are more likely to evade paying fair taxes by hiding their money. Whether that be by using loopholes in tax code or by stashing their money in off shore accounts. Recently we have seen a disturbing trend towards allowing the super wealthy to pay less and less in taxes meanwhile the burden on what remains of the middle class and the poor increases year after year. 

Let's be clear. The population is quickly awakening to the reality that everyone needs to contribute and the pitchforks and torches are being prepped. 

This trend where the super rich think they can control the government and impose their will on the lower classes will come to an end one way or another.

+Badsellcut Perhaps you should look at what has happened to the tax rate for the top 10% of earners in the last 30 years. At one time the highest rate was almost 90% (for those in the top 1% of income brackets). Perhaps before posting a stupid comment you should take a moment to use the google to educate yourself.
