Dilbar’s $600 million luxurious features have everyone talking

For those with a casual $600 million to spare, the world’s largest superyacht, Dilbar, offers a glimpse into opulence like never before. Built-in 2016, this vessel is not just a boat; it’s a floating palace, complete with two helicopter landing pads that have sparked a curious debate among enthusiasts.

Measuring a staggering 156 meters in length, Dilbar is a marvel of engineering, described as one of the most complex and challenging yachts ever constructed. Its impressive features include a 25-meter swimming pool, the largest ever installed on a yacht, and entertainment and recreation spaces that redefine luxury.

Crewed by a team of 96 and capable of accommodating up to 24 passengers, Dilbar is more than just a mode of transport; it’s a statement of extravagance. But what has captured the imagination of many is the presence of not one, but two helicopter landing pads.

Reddit has been abuzz with speculation about the need for two helipads. Some humorously suggest it’s for the convenience of a long walk across the yacht, while others jest about needing space for an additional helicopter.

The yacht’s history adds an intriguing twist. Previously owned by billionaire Alisher Usmanov’s sister, the yacht was seized in 2022 amidst investigations into its ownership. Usmanov faced allegations of money laundering, leading to the yacht’s impoundment. However, a German court later ruled the raids on the yacht illegal, with Usmanov’s legal team vehemently denying any basis for suspected money laundering.

Dilbar, named after Usmanov’s mother, remains a symbol of extravagance and luxury, sparking debates and admiration alike for its grandeur and mystique.
