The 557-foot Eclipse reportedly comes with features including two helipads, a submarine, multiple hot tubs, a pool and a missile-detection system. Another story has Eclipse with "two swimming pools -- the larger of which converts into a dance floor when drained -- bullet-proof glass, 6ft home cinema screens in every guest cabin and a master cabin where the roof opens to allow Abramovich and his girlfriend Daria Zhukova to sleep under the stars. An anti-paparazzi electronic "shield" will take care of their privacy while on board."

It will be the largest private yacht in the world, beating the 532-foot yacht Dubai, owned by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum, and is Abramovich's 5th yacht, although he sold one and gave another to his ex-wife. Online reports have estimated it costing anywhere from $400-$800M.

Construction was already underway in January 2007 when the WSJ wrote about the then-secretive project.

Roman Abramovich is the 3rd richs man in russia & he has done a lot of great things with his only money to help russia but at the same time he made shit loads of money off oil & stuff like that

& his ex-wife got one, im not sure which ex-wife cuz he was married twice & my guess is he wife must have scammed it off him in the divorce papers

They said your average multi million dollar yacht costs roughly 1/5th the total value to run per year

More.

Running costs for luxury yachts (crew, fuel, mooring, maintenance, etc) is roughly 10% of the value of the vessel. Annually.

More like 40 million/year.
