When Mikhail Prokhorov (worth $ 13.4 billion, No. 2 on the Forbes list) gave an interview to the American CBS television channel in his mansion, among other things, he showed the correspondent a model of the yacht Solemar (length 61 m). “I am not an avid traveler, because, frankly, I suffer from seasickness. I use it as a platform for jet skis, it is great for jumping, etc.,” Prokhorov said.

According to the entrepreneur, he uses the yacht for two weeks a year. Where she is now, Prokhorov does not know: “Somewhere in the port. I have people in charge of the ship." Nevertheless, according to The Yachts, Prokhorov spent tens of millions to purchase another boat, this time 96 meters long. The entrepreneur himself does not comment on the purchase of a new yacht.

Yachts for rich people are not just a means of transportation, but also an indicator of status. In the crisis year of 2009, 213 yachts over 30 m were built in the world, according to the latest study by The Super Yachting Index (a joint project of the industry publication Superyachttimes.com and major yacht trader Camper & Nicholson). The cost of yachts handed over to customers last year amounted to $5.4 billion. The average price is $25 million. The most expensive yachts (about $135 million on average) were launched in Germany. And most boats (35%) were built at shipyards in Italy.

How did the crisis affect the market? The number of yachts delivered to owners decreased in 2009 compared to 2008 by 18%. The volume of new construction fell even more. In 2008, 241 contracts were signed for the construction of yachts over 30 meters in length. In 2009, only 90.

But what about Russian buyers? Judge for yourself. In 2008 persons with Russian citizenship became owners of 14 superyachts. In 2009 - only 10. In 2008, the average length of yachts received by the Russians was 84 m, in 2009 - 50.4 m. The drop in performance would have been even deeper if not for Roman Abramovich and Mikhail Prokhorov. Abramovich's fleet was replenished with two units - the flagship yacht Eclipse (length 162.5 m, the longest yacht in the world) and the yacht Luna (115 m), designed for sailing in difficult ice conditions. Mikhail Prokhorov received the yacht Palladium (96 m). Another Russian - the owner of the superyacht Ocean Victory (75.75 m) - remains incognito. Result? In the premium segment, the Russian representation has strengthened. If in 2008, out of the 100 largest motor yachts in the world, Russians owned 13 boats, then by the end of 2009 - 17 units.

To date, the "Russian flotilla" has grown even more. After the “closing” of The Super Yachting Index rating, the Russian owner found the yacht Serena (143 m). According to the Russian edition of The Yachts, vodka tycoon Yuri Shefler became banned from entering Russia. His yacht surpassed Andrey Melnichenko's superyacht "A" in the ratings. Now the Russians own 18 of the largest yachts in the world. However, the names of the owners of only 13 of them are known. Forbes has rated these ships (and their owners) by yacht length.

Behind the door is a snow-white master's room of 240 sq. m, on the windows of which - 44-mm glass, capable of withstanding a grenade explosion. The double bed sits on a giant podium that is rotated by pressing a silver button. Other buttons control the rotation of the bed itself.
