The Eclipse superyacht is the crown jewel of Abramovich’s fleet. Estimated to be worth between $600 million and $1.5 billion, the Eclipse remains to be the most expensive superyacht ever built despite the fact that it was delivered back in 2010. The uber-luxurious vessel measures 162.5 meters in length, making it the largest superyacht in the world when it left the Blohm+Voss yard after completion more than a decade ago.

The superyacht can accommodate 36 guests along with a crew of 66 and the owner’s deck alone is 56 meters in length. It is also equipped with an anti-missile system, bullet-proof glass, and armor-plating. The vessel has a 16-meter swimming pool with a base that can be raised to transform the area into a dance floor. If that’s not all, the yacht can also fit in three helicopters.

Solaris superyacht ($575 million)Eclipse is not the only grand superyacht in Abramovich’s fleet. The Solaris is just as impressive as the Eclipse, although it’s a little smaller in size measuring 138.6-meter in length. The luxury vessel was completed last year and is believed to be priced north of $500 million, making it the second most expensive yacht in the world. The Solaris was designed by Australian Marc Newson and built by Lloyd Werft in Bremerhaven, Germany. The colossal boat has eight decks with 48 cabins that can accommodate up to 36 guests along with 60 crew members. Solaris also features a flotilla of 20 high-speed jet-skis and one onboard helicopter to ferry its guests to the shore.
Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner ($350 million)Abramovich’s privately owned Boeing 787 Dreamliner is the latest toy to be added to his multi-billion-dollar fleet. The aircraft is also considered to be the most expensive private jet in the world with a base price of $250 million and additional customization and equipment adding another $100 million to the cost. The Dreamliner was reportedly delivered to the Russian tycoon last year and is originally believed to be built in 2015 for PrivatAir, a Swiss airline operator that went bankrupt in 2018.

The dining room alone can seat 30 guests, which is seriously impressive. Interestingly, only two privately-owned Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner exist and it can cost around $74,000 per hour to charter such an aircraft.

The business jet was launched a decade ago and its 53-foot cabin made it the biggest in its class, which can be configured in different ways to fit anywhere between 11 to 18 passengers. The aircraft’s 8000-mile range is also one of the main reasons why it’s so popular with business tycoons.
