Russian billionaire Andrey Igorevich Melnichenko made sure that his arrival at every port of call will always be grand and, well, conspicuous. This is made possible as he recently upgraded his £190million superyacht for a new even more "super" model, which cost a staggering £260million. That is roughly $402 million - quite an amount for most people who find upgrading to a new phone already a big deal.
One of the most striking aspects of Melnichenko's superyacht - aside from its incredible size - is its strange design. While it can never stake any claim to grace or beauty due to its harsh angles, it does look positively modern and solid. It is a shiny hulk of steel punctuated by three tall masts, all in all resembling a sharpened Moby Dick. For hundreds of millions, however, one can be sure something pleasing must be found in the interiors.
