It has been informed that Bikini A, one of the world’s most expensive luxury yachts costing USD 300 million, is currently harbored in Maldives.
Nearly 120 meters long, ‘A’ is owned by Russian billionaire and industrialist Andrey Melnichenko. It was designed by world renowned Philippe Starck and built by master yacht builders Blohm & Voss in Kiel, Germany at HDW shipyard. Commissioned in 2004, the yacht was launched four years later with a host of extravagant features in regards to both aesthetics and function.
The 400ft-long vessel is said to have its own discotheque featuring a glass roof which is situated directly under the swimming pool and it also comes with a similarly styled speed boat for getting to and from the shore. The yacht has six luxury cabins for up to 14 guests and enough room for a staggering 42 crew members.
