Top 12 Most High-Tech & Luxurious Yachts of the World ~ Rising Sun

Taking the prize for first is the Rising Sun – also built by Lurssen in Bremen, Germany – which is owned by Larry Ellison, head of Oracle Corp. This magnificent ship is 452 feet and 8 inches long. It’s been said that Ellison had the Rising Sun designed to trump Paul Allen’s Octopus.

To highlight a few of the fantastic luxuries this mighty ship features, we’ll start with the all-embracing wine cellar. The vessel also hosts a fabulous swimming pool, a basketball court (which can also be used as a helicopter pad), suites for 16 guests and space for a private submarine. All and all, this ship presents about 8,000 square meters of living space.

Its mighty stature is certainly powered by a dependable source like Evinrude XD 100 oil.

Top 12 Most High-Tech & Luxurious Yachts of the World ~ Octopus

Our runner-up yacht – built by German shipbuilder, Lurssen in Bremen – is called the Octopus. Owned by Microsoft billionaire, Paul Allen, this mighty vessel cost more than $200 million and staffs a crew of 60 members. Constructed to please such a brilliant and revolutionary mind, I can only imagine the technology of the ship is equally, if not more, advanced than that of Allen’s brain power.

The Octopus is 414 feet and features support for three helicopters on the top deck as well as a remote controlled submarine. It comes at no surprise that a yacht of such luxury and excellence requires a hefty upkeep and costs about $20 million annually in maintenance and services. It’s also likely that this upkeep requires the clean power of Evinrude XD 50 oil.
