How much does it cost to maintain the largest superyacht in the world? We buy an RS6 a day

After the sighting we reported to you at the end of November, let’s get back to talking about Azzamthe one that is hands down the largest superyacht in the worldat least for a few more months.

In fact, the Rev Ocean, a gigantic 192 meter yacht, will be inaugurated in 2026, but until it sets sail for the seas and oceans, Azzam, strong of its 180 meters – practically two football fields – he will look down on everyone. Just to get an idea of ​​how gigantic it is, just think about it 60 meters longer than Jeff Bezos’ Koruwhich is already a 120 meter beast, a decidedly mega vessel.

It was commissioned by royal family of Abu Dhabi, for a cost of around 600 million dollars: but you know How much does it cost to maintain? As we often remind you, these giants of the sea require huge costs, taking into account the numerous personnel on board to make everything work properly, the diesel needed to run the engines and the electricity to keep all the various systems functioning.

We talk about a weekly cost of $1.5 millionwhich at the exchange rate makes around 1.2 million euros and which divided by 7 makes more or less 170,000 euros per day. Taking that into account an Audi RS6 in Performance version It has a price list of around 150 thousand euros, with the daily maintenance of the Azzam (which means Resolute) we could therefore buy the 600 horsepower touring car from the 4 Rings every day and still have 20 thousand euros left over.

Just think about that the Azzam’s tank can contain something like a million liters of fuel, consequently, just to fill it, between 5 and 10 million dollars are needed. Then there are other costs such as docking, but also insurance, and as mentioned above the salaries of the crew.

By doing a brief calculation we therefore arrive at a figure of approximately 5 million euros per monthwhich multiplied by 12 makes exactly 60 million euros, equal to approximately 10% of the value of the superyacht itself. We remind you that the Al Nahyan family is also in possession of the fifth largest superyacht in the worldread Blue, which measures “solo” 160 meters, about 20 less than the majestic Azzam.
