What is the largest yacht in the world? The name of the largest vessel ever is Azzam . In addition to being the longest in the world, it is also the most expensive and fastest yacht ever. But let's proceed step by step and discover what there is to know about the largest boat in the world that has ever been built to date.

The Azzam is a yacht with a length of no less than about 180 metres. Consider that it is the length of two football fields. In short, it is the longest yacht in the world, but even in terms of width it is certainly no joke, in fact 20.8 meters. It is not the first year that it has been at the top of the ranking of the largest yachts. In fact, since the year of its launch, way back in 2013, no other existing yacht has managed to match its majesty.

It was built in the shipyards of the German company Lürssen in Bremen-Vegesack in three years of work . It took a year to be able to design this colossus, a choral design that was in fact carried out by the Nauta Design studio of Milan, by Christophe Leoni who took care of the interior design and by Burgess who took over the technical project .

The Azzam yacht has two diesel engines for a total power of 94,000 horsepower, a power that allows this immense yacht to reach a speed of 30 knots without difficulty. For feeding the engines, there is a tank with a capacity of one million litres. These too are all mind-boggling numbers, indeed from Guinness Book.

Inside we find a hall 29 meters long and 18 meters wide, without pillars, a real open space. The furniture in this saloon is elegant and refined, an Empire style furniture which draws inspiration from the twentieth century and which makes this vessel unique in its kind. There is not only this lounge inside the yacht of course, but also a cinema and a disco. Without forgetting the two swimming pools, so as to be able to satisfy the needs of the owner and his guests. It is important to remember that the largest yachts in the world are designed down to the smallest detail, even in terms of safety. Precisely for this reason the Azzam also has an anti-missile defense system, two heliports, a submarine to be used in case of need.

We know that the Assam yacht was owned by Prince Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan . The Emir of Abu Dhabi died in 2022, it is natural to wonder who owns the largest and most beautiful yacht in the world today. At the moment there is no certain information in this regard.

Immense dimensions, luxury, value and uniqueness, these are the characteristics that all the largest yachts in the world have, boats that are obviously within the reach of a very select few. They are indeed very expensive. As for the Azzam, the price should be around 600 million dollars.
