What makes the superyacht sector so interesting is when owners come along with novel ideas The owner of the Rossinavi-built BEL1 is a good example. He was anything but content with the typical balance of alfresco and interior real estate on custom yachts. With the shipyard and design teams, he created an architecturally complex and incredibly creative floating home. The interior of the yacht BEL1 particularly benefits in so many ways.

Nature is such a wild, awe-inspiring, sometimes frightening place, but there’s something about the ocean that makes this seem even crazier to me. At least on land, we are in our element, in water… we don’t really stand a chance against something that lives there. We are not all Michael Phelps.

THIS is the sinister story behind a deserted cruiseliner that was intentionally run aground by its desperate captain, it is alleged. Disaster struck when the MS World Discoverer hit an uncharted reef in the Solomon Islands and unwittingly established itself as a tourist attraction. It’s now a half-sunken ocean liner visibly tipped to one side where […]

Eerie tale of abandoned cruise ship left to rot for 24 years after captain ‘deliberately’ rammed boat into tourist beach

So close, but so far...

Mako sharks are apex predators who terrorize their ocean prey with their speed and power. Found up and down both coasts of the United States, and down into the Caribbean, over near Hawaii, and pretty much everywhere in between, these predators can reach lengths of 12 feet, and weigh up to 1,000 pounds. They use their razor sharp teeth to eat tuna, swordfish and squid, and with a top speed of over 45 miles per hour, they are the fastest of any shark species.

Their insane speeds also allow them to make some incredible leaps, coming fully out of the water. Sounds like a sport fisherman’s dream, right? Well... until they take your catch.

For a group of anglers off the coast of the California, the tax man came in August. The group was hooked into a bluefin tuna near San Diego, reeled it to the boat, gaffed it, and out of nowhere, a big ol' mako shark came to snag a bite.

"Here’s a much cleaner version of the Tug O War between Capt. Dan, Tanner and a very large Mako Shark that wanted some sushi."

At least they got a show...

Luxury superyachts like the Bayesian, which capsized and sank early Monday, are built to withstand extreme weather conditions, but not everything is guaranteed, says one expert.

Yacht expert breaks down luxury superyacht tragedy after boat capsizes in freak storm: 'Always limits'

Centibillionaires are a common sight in the Mediterranean during summer, even if they prefer to keep a low profile. However, the world’s hawk-eyed observers always manage to keep tabs on them. Jeff Bezos made headlines with his summer aboard the $500 million megayacht Koru, which has seen abundant use during this season. Meanwhile, Mark Zuckerberg, the third richest man with a net worth of $184 billion, is also enjoying the high seas, albeit with more secrecy. His $300 million superyacht, Launchpad, has been sailing in stealth mode for the last three months, with its AIS (Automatic Identification System) turned off throughout the European holiday. Thats more than 90 days where the 388 feet long vessel is sailing blind in the busy waters of the Mediterranean.

Mark Zuckerberg is so protective of his privacy that for the past three months he has deliberately turned off the mandatory location transponders of his $300 million superyacht Launchpad and has been sailing the 387-foot-long vessel completely dark in the Mediterranean.
