The Midas Touch: $4.8 Billion History Supreme Most Expensive Yacht Ever Sold

We’ve seen some opulent yachts, but the 100-foot History Supreme takes the gold-encrusted cake. Stuart Hughes, a British purveyor of luxury gadgets, took a break from his role as an iPad alchemist to create the $4.8 billion superyacht, covered in platinum and gold from bow to stern.

Purchased by an anonymous Malaysian businessman, History Supreme is the most expensive yacht ever sold, according to Luxury Launches. The Daily Mail reports that the impressive vessel took three years to complete and used over a staggering 220,462 pounds of precious metals. Everything – from the base of the boat, to the deck, dining area, rails and anchor – were decked out in gold and platinum.

The exorbitant price tag is also the result of the lavish master bedroom, adorned in platinum with a wall feature that is made from meteoric stone and a genuine T-Rex dinosaur bone. It is rumored that Robert Kuok purchased the superyacht, worth 10 times the amount Roman Abramovitch (previous title holder for world’s most expensive yacht) paid for the Eclipse megayacht. Kuok is one of only three Malaysians with a net worth of $5 billion or more, according to Forbes billionaire’s list . If the purchase price is accurate, “the most likely buyer is Robert Kuok , the richest man in Malaysia, with a net worth of $12.5 billion,” reports Business Insider .

We may not have any gold-fringed yachts for sale , but Atlantic Yacht & Ship features a wide variety of yachts and boats for sale that will suit even the most distinguishing tastes. Check our listings and contact a sales rep today to tour any vessel at 1-888-230-0439.

Inside The Most Expensive Yacht Ever Sold

Billionaires are seemingly always seeking to top one another and themselves when it comes to buying jaw-droppingly expensive and ridiculous objects. In 2011, an anonymous Malaysian man, rumored to be business tycoon Robert Kuok, may have moved to the head of the pack when he allegedly bought the hilariously named History Supreme, a yacht made of such materials as solid gold, platinum, meteoric stone, and the bone of a tyrannosaurus rex. According to Business Insider , Kuok is a notoriously private self-made billionaire who heads the Kuok Group, a multinational conglomerate that owns assorted businesses around the world. When he bought the History Supreme for $4.8 billion, he reportedly spent a third of his $12.8 billion fortune. According to Forbes , in 2021 the 97-year-old is the 171st richest person in the world with a net worth of $12.6 billion.

As reported by the Daily Mail , the History Supreme is made up of over 100,000 kg (that's over 220,000 pounds) of platinum and gold; the entire base of the boat is wrapped in solid gold and the precious metals are used throughout, while the aforementioned meteoric stone and dinosaur bone make up a "wall feature" in the master bedroom. Additional features, per Jetset Magazine , include a luxury liquor bottle adorned with a rare 18.5 carat diamond, a custom iPhone encrusted in 500 diamonds, including two special interchangable home button diamonds, and a panoramic Aquavista wall aquarium made from 24-carat gold, presumably setting a new standard when it comes to panoramic yacht aquariums.

Is the History Supreme a hoax?

The History Supreme yacht is the handiwork of British designer Stuart Hughes who per his website has also made such collectibles for the ultrarich as the world's most expensive suit, the world's most expensive iPhone, the world's most expensive model car, and a solid gold Rolls Royce Phantom. According to Jetset Magazine , the "anonymous Malaysian business man" (probably Robert Kuok, shown above) commissioned Hughes via a friend in his yachting circle; Hughes never met the person for whom the yacht was intended, but was given completely  free reign in terms of the ship's design and construction. The project took three years to complete. 

To add to the History Supreme's mystique, some people don't believe it exists at all. Autoevolution says it "was never real, it was never made and no, it does not exist," noting that Italian company Baia Yachts issued a statement claiming the pictures of History Supreme's interior on Hughes' website were stolen from their site and used without permission. MoneyInc and YachtHarbor also lay out the case for the entire story being a hoax, with MoneyInc noting that at one point Kuok deconstructed his Hong Kong mansion into several smaller homes to avoid an ostentatious display of wealth, which makes his commission of the world's most luxurious yacht seem unlikely. Furthermore, as Kuok is known for staying out of the public eye, perhaps Hughes chose him as the supposed customer because he is hard to reach and therefore will not confirm or deny the yacht's existence. The History Supreme section of Hugh's website remains intact. 

Did the Eclipse get eclipsed?

Before the possible existence of the History Supreme, the title of world's most luxurious yacht belonged to the Eclipse (shown above). Per the Sydney Morning Herald , it was purchased in 2009 by Russian business tycoon Roman Abramovich for $590 million and includes two helipads, a movie theater, a sports complex, its own mini-submarine, and a missile defense system. Created by German shipbuilding company Blohm + Voss, an anonymous Russian yachting expert described it as a "big mansion on water ." When asked why it looked like a military frigate, the expert replied "It's a trend. Private yachts look like military boats these days. The yacht is a statement for many people. It's a statement about power." For those who wanted to try out that sort of morally dubious power without committing, the Eclipse was at one point available for commission for up to 30 guests and 75 crew members via SuperYachtsMonaco at $2 million per week, as reported by Business Insider . It's no longer listed on the site.

Per Robb Report , the world's largest yacht since its construction finished in 2013 has been the Azzam, which comes in at 592 feet and six inches long and can travel at a speed up to 30 knots. Built by yacht company Lürssen , it was commissioned by United Arab Emirates president Khalifa bin Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan (per Super Yacht Fan ) and has an interior described as sophisticated and luxe.

Fortunes In Every Line: The Richest Talk Show Hosts And Their Salaries

Olympians with golden wallets: the richest olympic athletes in history, the queen of the beam: simone biles' net worth, quick links, supreme history is a boat made of gold, history supreme's luxurious interiors and performance, rumors and speculations on the history supreme.

Billionaires appear to be constantly trying to outdo each other and themselves when it comes to purchasing ridiculously expensive and extravagant items . As such, it's possible that in 2011, an unidentified Malaysian, reported to be business billionaire Robert Kuok , may have gone to the top of the pack by purchasing History Supreme, a yacht composed of solid gold, platinum, meteoric stone, and a tyrannosaurus rex bone. Kuok is the self-made billionaire who runs the Kuok Group, an international corporation with operations all over the world. He reportedly spent a third of his $12.8 billion fortune when he paid $4.8 billion for the History Supreme. It's estimated that the 97-year-old will have a net worth of $12.6 billion by 2021, according to Forbes.

Gold-plated rooms are the norm on boats, where every luxury is taken care of for their guests. There are numerous swimming pools, dance floors, cinema halls, bars, and lounges, as well as a variety of other amenities for the billionaires who own these wonders of architectural design. But that's not all; owners board in helicopters that land on the deck of the boat for added panache. One of the world's top engines powers each yacht, which is a sleek and attractive craft. No one on board notices a jot of discomfort as they soar through the waves at top speed. In order to ensure that their sheen and durability are worth the price tag, the ships are built using the best materials available.

History Supreme is the most expensive boat in the world. A Malaysian businessman, who wishes to remain unknown, commissioned Stuart Hughes to create it. According to media reports, the guy is Robert Kuok, the billionaire creator of Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts. When finished, the 30-meter yacht took three years to build and required about 100,000 kilograms of solid gold and platinum. On the boat's base, a thin film of gold metal has been applied to give it a luxurious look. The deck, dining area, railings, and even the anchor all feature a touch of gold trim. As one example of the yacht's lavish interior design, the major sleeping quarter features a T-Rex bone set on a meteoric stone wall.

A remarkable 220,462 pounds of precious metals were used during the vessel's three-year construction, according to the Daily Mail. It was all gold and platinum: the base of the boat, the deck, dining area, rails, and anchor. As Roman Abramovitch spent ten times as much for Eclipse, it has been believed that Robert Kuok bought the superyacht. The Forbes billionaires' list ranks Kuok as one of only three Malaysians with a net worth of $5 billion or more. The most likely bidder is Robert Kuok, the wealthiest man in Malaysia, with a net worth of $12.5 billion, according to the Business Insider.

There are precious metals used in the eating room, rails, and anchors; the vessel's base is covered in pure gold. In the superyacht's luxurious interior, there are central sleeping quarters and platinum embellishments, including wall features created from meteoric stones and actual T-Rex Dinosaur bones. One of the world's rarest diamonds , an 18.5-carat one, is featured in a luxury liquor bottle on board the ship. Take a look at the diamond-encrusted bespoke iPhone, which features two diamonds that can be swapped out for the home button. It's possible to forget that you're at sea if you don't notice the 24-carat gold-plated panoramic wall aquarium on board the boat.

There has been no mention of the superyacht's performance or other qualities as you may have realized this by now. Despite the thorough quality of the features discussed, it felt like they were just a random assortment of stuff they gave to justify such an excessive price tag. The fact that none of it was real was an even more ridiculous claim than the rumored price of $4.8 billion for a yacht.

When news of History Supreme spread, many representatives for Hughes acknowledged to various media sites, including in emails sent to Business Insider , that the reports contained accurate information. After that, there was complete and utter stillness coming from their end. The name History Supreme made the yacht sound like an insane vessel that not even a wealthy villain would buy, and there's a good reason for it. It was never a thing, and nor was it ever created, and no, it is not out there. History Supreme is likely the biggest boating fraud in the industry, despite what Google and a few reputable yachting websites want you to think.

Baia Yachts, based in Italy, issued a statement saying that the photos allegedly showing History Supreme posted on Hughes' website were stolen from its website and appropriated without permission at some point after the initial story was published. Hughes has not removed the post for whatever reason, and if it were up to him, he would still have you believe that he developed and sold the world's most costly boat, which the manufacturers constructed with more than 220,000 pounds of 24-carat gold.

A Closer Look at the $4.8 Billion History Supreme

Most of us do not wish for much money; a million dollars is enough to make us turn our lives around, but there are always people who are looking for more. While you are praying for a car, another wants a private jet; while you are looking for more space in your garage, another is preparing to buy an entire house. We are not equal, and that is the reason why when you hear that someone is willing to buy a yacht for $4.8 billion, you have to ask who it is. A yacht that goes by the name “History Supreme” has you thinking that it contains lots of history either in its construction or decorations yet the only thing historical about the $4.8 billion yacht is the use of extinct bones. Stuart Hughes made the headlines eight years ago with the declaration that he had taken three years to complete building History Supreme, so we had to learn more about it.

Why be valued so highly?

Multi-billionaires have competed against each other to see whose yacht is the longest and when we think that we have found the winner another boat is made and it outshines the rest. History Supreme was not about being the longest; it only was going to be 100 feet long, but the materials used to make it would ensure that no other yacht ever came close to its price. Manufacturers value their products depending on the cost of production and for Stuart, the boat which he also claimed the buyer had given him free rein to make, the construction meant going all out hence the astronomical price. History Supreme was reportedly made from:

Precious metals

As little girls boast of wearing nothing but gold-coated earrings since any other will cause them to have allergic reactions, they already feel like they own the world with their jewelry all because it has a touch of gold. Well, imagine owning a vessel whose base is made from solid gold. The anonymous businessman who bought the History Supreme took pride in owning a yacht whose base was made from gold; a thin layer is formed to coat its entire base, according to Stuart Hughes.

The sleeping quarters were allegedly made from platinum and together, both the platinum and gold used weighed 100,000 kilograms. As if that is not enough of the costly expenses, holding down the vessel was an anchor also made from precious metals while the railings, dining area, and deck also were constructed from precious metals, according to Luxury Launches.

Bones of an extinct animal

The moment you learn that something no longer exists, you can be sure that finding it is going to be nearly impossible and when you do, the value will be too high for you to afford probably. Such is the case with the History Supreme, which only a multi-billionaire would dare think about buying. Stuart allegedly used the bones of an extinct dinosaur named “Tyrannosaurus Rex” or simply “T. Rex.” Why anyone would choose to have the bone shavings of a carnivorous dinosaur in their bedroom is a question that only Stuart can answer given that he supposedly came up with the design.

Meteoric stone

Stuart was looking to outdo renowned yacht designers when he said that History Supreme also contained Meteoric stones in the construction of the walls of the main sleeping quarters. The significance of having meteoric stones is still about driving the price of History Supreme upwards. Although Stuart did not reveal the exact meteoric stones used, maybe the fact that they are rarer than gold and a pound could be worth as much as $1 million is enough to make us believe that History Supreme is worth every penny included in its high cost.

Time spent constructing it

Everyone values their time differently; Josh Turner sang that time is love, but to a businessman, time is money. Stuart valued his time so much that he must have factored in the three years spent constructing History Supreme in the price when he quoted the £3 billion cost.

Too good to be true

In 2011, mainstream media went into a frenzy with the news that Stuart Hughes was going to make the most expensive in the world after Stuart claimed the project had been commissioned from an anonymous Malaysian businessman. The cost of the project was £3 billion according to Stuart Hughes and at such an amount is was apparent that someone somewhere was ready to splurge on a luxurious yacht, but the question remained as to who the mysterious buyer was.

As always when questions are unanswered, curiosity gets the better of us as we wonder if what we are being told is the truth or fabricated stories. Business Insider had assumed that the billionaire who bought the yacht was Robert Kuok but later discovered that the businessman whose net worth stood at a staggering $12.5 billion at the time, had deconstructed his Hong Kong mansion to avoid displaying his wealth. Now, that is not the behavior of someone who would spend $4.8 billion on a yacht.

We are always warned that if it sounds or looks too good to be true, it usually is, and in this instance, that was the case. Upon investigations, it was discovered that the whole project was but a hoax which the media had been gullible enough to believe in without doing their due diligence before reporting the lies to the public. It is shocking how far people are willing to go to make a name or themselves because Stuart Hughes was desperate enough to be noticed. According to Yacht Harbour, he went to the website of Baia Yachts and took pictures from there which he used to try and fool the public into believing he was making the most expensive yacht worldwide.

Our instincts should, however, have told us that billionaires are not interested in having a connection with the extinct animals by building a yacht with their bones. It is all about ego and for a billionaire a yacht should be something that gives him personal satisfaction, like Roman Abramovich’s Eclipse which he had built to eclipse every other boat in the sea with regards to length.

A gold-plated super-yacht that is claimed to be worth a staggering £3 billion ($4.5 billion) has taken the title of the most expensive in the world.

UK designer Stuart Hughes claims that the 30-metre long History Supreme yacht is adorned with 100,000 kilograms of gold and platinum that covers more than half its surface and even comes with a statue made from the bone of a T-Rex dinosaur.

The base of the yacht as well as the deck, dining areas, rails and anchor are wrapped in solid gold and the sleeping areas are covered in platinum.

There is also a wall feature in the master bedroom that is made from meteoric stone and an aquarium made from 68kg of 24 carat gold.

Also on board is a luxury liquor bottle featuring an 18.5ct diamond, one of the world’s rarest.

Designed by jeweller Stuart Hughes, the “mammoth” project took over three years to complete.

The vessel even outshines Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich’s $450 million yacht Eclipse , which has its own missile defence system and a submarine.

It is claimed the History Supreme was completed in Malaysia two weeks ago for an anonymous businessman.

Mr Hughes has also produced laptops, beds, cars and a suit covered in precious metals.

The most expensive super yacht in the world $4.8 b.

The yacht, named History Supreme, is covered in 100,000 kg of gold, platinum and jewels and has a statue made from genuine Tyrannosaurus Rex bones.

The most Expensive Super yacht in the world $4.8 Billion "History Supreme" 

  Shireen Khalil for News.com.au

Yes, you read right. The master bedroom has genuine dinosaur bone shaved from a skeleton was sourced from Arizona, USA. Pieces of the thigh bone alone come in at about £68,000.

It took world-renowned UK designer Stuart Hughes just over three years to complete.

The yacht, named History Supreme, is covered in 100,000kg of gold, platinum and jewels and has a statue made from genuine Tyrannosaurus Rex bones.

Mr Hughes told news.com.au that he was quite excited when approached by a friend in the yachting circle to design the luxury liner. He had free reign to construct it how he liked.

The History Supreme has been dubbed the “ world’s most expensive yacht ”, worth £3 billion.

Mr Hughes said much of the staggering sum is owed to its gold and dinosaur bone features.

The base of the yacht as well as the deck, dining areas, rails and anchor are wrapped in solid gold and the sleeping areas are covered in platinum.

Also on board is a luxury liquor bottle featuring an 18.5 carat diamond, one of the world’s rarest, along with a panoramic wall aquarium made from 68kg of 24 carat gold.

If you were contemplating a purchase, it’s too late.

The yacht was bought by an anonymous Malaysian businessman for £2.53 billion back in 2011 — Mr Hughes never got to meet him but said he would have like to.

It is unknown if the mystery buyer still has the luxurious boat.

Since the boat’s creation the History Supreme has remained “king bling of the high seas” with no other luxury liner reported to have exceeded its mammoth price tag.

Is the History Supreme Yacht Real? 

For most boat owners, it’s enough that their boat is sea-worthy, clean, and running smoothly. But for the designer of the History Supreme yacht, a few extras were in order. With the existence of the famous yacht under debate, we delve under the surface to find out if the boat reigns supreme, or if it’s myth is history. 

Why is the History Supreme Yacht So Expensive? 

While a lot of information about the yacht is up in the air, most agree that the high price tag is due not only to its size (a reported one hundred feet in length), but also what it’s made of. The boat is supposedly loaded with precious metals. Gold and platinum were said to be used to line the entire boat. 

How Much is the History Supreme Yacht Worth? 

The boat is listed with a price tag of $4.8 billion, easily making it the most expensive yacht ever to exist. The next most expensive luxurious yacht would be the Eclipse, owned by Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich. The Eclipse mega yacht is valued at $1.5 billion, making it only a third of the value of the History Supreme.

Who Owns the Yacht History Supreme? 

The name most often linked with the History Supreme is Malaysian businessman Robert Kuok. His fortune is currently listed as $11 billion on Forbes. If the boat is indeed real, would someone really spend over a third of their money on it? 

The other name linked to the boat is the reported designer, Stuart Hughes. Hughes is best known for designing luxury gadgets such as solid gold games consoles, or black diamond iPhones. He describes the yacht on his website as having been sold to an anonymous Malaysian businessman, which may or may not be Kuok. 

Inside the History Supreme Yacht 

Other features of opulence on the boat include a T-rex bone mounted on the wall of the master bedroom, along with meteor rock features. The whole interior is decked out with gold and platinum. The dining area, the deck itself and even the boat’s anchor are said to be either solid gold, or gold-lined. 

Does the History Supreme Really Exist? 

While it’s been long discussed online and in boating circles, it seems unlikely the golden yacht actually exists. Whether a deliberate hoax in the industry, or just a rumour that got out of hand, it seems likely that the boat isn’t real. The few existing photos appear to be fake or doctored, and the reported weight of the boat, given all that precious metal, is around 100,000kg. 

Any yacht owner worth their salt could tell you that a boat of that weight would struggle to stay afloat, let alone get you from coast to coast.

Yacht or Knot: History Supreme – The World’s Most Expensive Yacht

A glimpse of the Most Expensive Yacht, History Supreme | Photo Courtesy Stuart Hughes

Have you ever seen a vessel of floating gold? If you’re in the right place at the right time, you may just run into the History Supreme , the most expensive and arguably the most unique yacht ever designed and built.

Since the beginning of time, the world’s elite have flaunted their affluence, but this floating masterpiece may just blow every other show-and-tell yacht extravagance out of the water.

The History Supreme was created and built by Stuart Hughes, a British purveyor of frilly gadgets and the creator of both the most expensive suit and most expensive iPhone in the world. This supreme boat was sold to an anonymous ultra-wealthy Malaysian business man, assumed to be Robert Kuok.

You have to see it to believe it, as this almost implausible work of floating golden art took Hughes 3 years to complete and cost $4.8 billion. Mr. Hughes was ecstatic when approached by a friend in the yachting circle to design the luxury liner. He had free creative reign to design and construct the yacht as he wished. Hughes never met the purchaser of his creation, Mr. Kuok, who is reported to be the richest man in Malaysia with a net worth of $12.5 billion.

At 100 feet long, and weighing-in at staggering 220,462 pounds worth of precious gold and platinum, all the extraordinary features are on deck and opulently on display.

The dining area, rails and anchor are all made from priceless metals, and the base of the vessel is wrapped in pure gold. The superyacht’s lavish interior features central sleeping quarters and is adorned with platinum accents, including wall features made from meteoric stones and authentic T-Rex Dinosaur bones.

This astounding and innovative abundance continues on board with a luxury liquor bottle featuring an 18.5 carat diamond, one of the rarest in the world. Also, wrap your head around the custom iPhone that’s covered in 500 cut diamonds which include two interchangeable diamonds fitted over the phone’s “home button”. If you forget that you’re at sea, a reminder might also be the yacht’s superbly ordained panoramic wall aquarium made of 24 carat gold.

The History Supreme has maintained the title of most expensive yacht on the high seas for nearly a decade now, with no other luxury liner able to surpass its mammoth price tag. Too good to be true, or knot?

You may have heard that the most expensive yacht in history is called the History Supreme. As near as I’ve been able to figure out, that’s not true. Not because the alleged $4.8 billion yacht wouldn’t be the most expensive – that’s far more than the next most expensive yacht. Instead, it’s not true because the History Supreme is not a real yacht. It doesn’t exist. But you wouldn’t know that from how the internet works.

The World’s Most Expensive Yacht

If you Google the most expensive yacht nearly all the top results, whether they are lists or single topic articles, tell you about History Supreme. Every single one of these articles uses the same four photos. Keep that in mind because it will be important in a moment.

According to the stories, which all source their information from the same place, the History Supreme was designed by a man named Stuart Hughes. Hughes is famous for elevating common things to the extravagant. He had added hundreds of diamonds to things like iPhones and iPads, turning the everyday pieces of technology into multi-million dollar pieces of art.

Hughes himself states he designed the History Supreme for an anonymous Malaysian businessman back around 2011. 

What Made the History Supreme So Expensive?

Hughes is famous for his excess so he was said to have gone all out with the History Supreme. One wall feature in the master suite was said to be made from meteoric stone (as in, harvested from a meteor) and included genuine dinosaur bone shaved from a Tyrannosaurus Rex found in Arizona. The dino bones alone were priced at $89,000.  There was even supposed to be a massive diamond housed in a luxury liquor bottle on display and a panoramic wall aquarium. So this ain’t your dad’s fishing boat , that’s for sure.

The big cost for the History Supreme was the solid gold and platinum. Hughes said he used 100,000 kg of precious metals to cover nearly every surface on the boat. The railings, the deck, the dining area, even the base of the boat was said to be wrapped in gold. Even the anchor was gold. And, for the record, 100,000 kg is about 220,000 pounds or 110 tons. Wow, right? Sounds like an amazing yacht.

Who Owns History Supreme?

All photos of the History Supreme came from Hughes own website and since that time, in 2011 or so, not a single other photo of the boat has been taken. No one has reported seeing the boat and no one even knows who owns the boat.

People have assumed that the owner would be a man named Robert Kuok, the richest man in Malaysia. His fortune is around $14.5 billion. If he was indeed the man who purchased this boat, it means he spent one third of all of his money on it. That’s a lot of money to invest in a single boat. 

Why Is the History Supreme Fake?

At the end of the day, there is no evidence History Supreme ever existed for real. The most damning evidence is those four photographs. Some internet sleuths who were unconvinced about the story of the History Supreme realized that the boat in Hughes photos looked a lot like the Baia One Hundred, a yacht made by Italian yacht makers Baia in 2008. 

The sales manager from Baia was contacted by a yachting news website back in 2011 to ask about the History Supreme. Because, in fairness, Hughes never claimed he was a yacht maker. He’s a man who makes normal things extravagant. He could have taken a One Hundred from Baia and made it into History One, right? Not so fast.

Baia’s sales manager said those photos were stolen from their website and doctored. So they were not new photos of an altered boat, but altered photos of an old boat. Moreover, and this is crucial, he also pointed out what should have been obvious to anyone working in boating news. If Hughes added 110 tons of gold to the boat, how the heck was it staying afloat?

The One Hundred has a displacement of 80 tons as is. Imagine adding an extra 110 tons of gold on top of that. There’s just no way. It would sink to the bottom like a stone. And honestly, how would that boat even work? Gold on the outside hull would get scraped off, assuming people didn’t strip it in the middle of the night. And a gold anchor? You’d risk the gold getting scraped and knocked off every time you used it. It just doesn’t make sense. 

While it seems like a cool story at first, I have to say it’s just beyond reason. It doesn’t make sense. No one has seen the boat in over a decade. Only four photos exist and they seem to have been photoshopped. And, finally, science itself stands in the way of the boat even working with the sheer mass of gold that’s supposed to be on board. For those reasons, we have to call this one a straight up hoax. There is no History Supreme.

The Bottom Line

For over a decade now, numerous websites have claimed History Supreme as the most expensive yacht in the world. But since no one has seen the yacht in over a decade, the pictures are apparently photoshopped, and it’s far too heavy to even work as a boat as it’s been described by the man who allegedly made it, we’re saying that the boat is just a hoax and never existed in the first place.

I’ve read about 10 000 kg gold, not 100 000. 100k is beyond ridiculous. Even 10k is. Here’s why: https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-21969100

“His figure for the overall amount of gold in the world is 155,244 tonnes – 16,056 tonnes, or 10% less, than the assessment by Thompson Reuters GFMS. A relatively small disparity, perhaps, but one that at today’s prices comes to more than $950 billion.”

So 16 tonnes are 950 billion dollars… how about that? ;-))

Anon on July 8, 2023

It says 16 thousand tonnes, not 16 tonnes.

History Supreme is the world’s most expensive yacht

By Adrian Prisca

Updated on July 1, 2015

The renowned luxury goods designer Stuart Hughes has created the world’s most unique and probably most expensive yacht called History Supreme or Baia 100 Supreme that’s apparently worth 3 billion GBP or close to $5 billion. This yacht has been apparently designed for an anonymous leading businessman from Malaysia who probably won’t be that anonymous after getting on this beauty.

History Supreme is made of 100,000 kilograms of solid gold and platinum and took over three years to be completed. It’s 100 ft long and wherever you look you’ll see the precious metals it was made of. Even the dining area, deck and anchor have been made using real precious metals.

The base of the yacht is wrapped with solid gold and the wall feature is specially crafted from meteoric stone along with a genuine dinosaur bone shaved in from the raptor T-REX. The main sleeping area has platinum accents just like many other rooms of this amazing yacht.

Update: A lot of people have been emailing us about the History Supreme yacht and we have to mention that this yacht concept was actually fake, even though I’m sure a lot of billionaires would dream of owning a lavish yacht as this concept was announced to be.

Smaller Superyacht Prices

When it comes to the cost of a superyacht, it is important to consider the size of the vessel.

These vessels are usually built with luxury in mind, featuring features like multiple decks, salons, bedrooms, bathrooms, and other amenities.

Many also come equipped with a variety of recreational features such as swimming pools, spas, and sports facilities.

Because of their smaller size, these superyachts are typically less expensive to maintain and operate than larger vessels.

They are also easier to transport and maneuver.

However, they don’t offer the same level of luxury and amenities as larger superyachts.

The cost of a smaller superyacht will also depend on its age, condition, and the features it includes.

For instance, newer models may come with more modern features and amenities, such as satellite TV and Wi-Fi, which can add to the overall cost.

Similarly, superyachts with higher-end materials, such as marble or teak, will also cost more.

In addition to the purchase price, buyers should also consider the cost of maintenance, repairs, and upgrades.

Smaller superyachts may require more frequent maintenance, as well as additional costs for fuel and staffing.

For those looking to purchase a smaller superyacht, it is important to factor in these additional costs when deciding on a budget.

The cost of a larger superyacht is determined by the size of the vessel, the number of amenities and features it offers, and the quality of the materials used in its construction.

The more luxurious the vessel, the higher the price tag.

For example, a well-appointed, 320-foot superyacht with all the bells and whistles can easily cost in the hundreds of millions of dollars.

In addition to the cost of the vessel itself, there are also ongoing operational costs associated with owning a superyacht.

These can add up quickly and include fuel, maintenance, crew salaries, insurance, dockage, and more.

However, these costs can vary greatly depending on the size and type of vessel, as well as the number of amenities and features it offers.

When it comes to superyachts, the sky truly is the limit.

Whether youre looking for a smaller vessel or a multi-million dollar mega-yacht, the cost will ultimately be determined by your individual preferences and budget.

Factors That Affect Superyacht Prices

When it comes to the cost of a superyacht, there are several factors that can affect the final price.

The size of the vessel is one of the primary considerations, as larger yachts typically cost more than smaller ones.

The amenities and features of the yacht can also influence the final cost.

For instance, a yacht with extensive customizations (such as a Jacuzzi or helipad) or high-end materials (such as carbon fiber or mahogany) may cost more than a standard yacht.

Additionally, the cost of maintenance and upkeep should be taken into account, as these can quickly add up over time.

Finally, the buyer’s individual preferences and budget will play a significant role in determining the total cost of the superyacht.

The Most Expensive Superyacht Ever Built
