vladimir putin is synonymous with russia and he has a net worth of 70 billion dollars at
the time of writing this video if you know anything about billionaires you know they
love yachts and with that kind of cash you can bet putin's got quite a few of these expensive
seafaring toys at his disposal whether he's checking out on the graceful the olympia or
maybe he's sailing on the seagull putin relaxes in style today we want to check out his absolutely
bonkers yacht collection which consists of at least four yachts let the cruise begin
up first we would like to introduce you to arguably putin's most well-known yacht it also
happens to be one of his personal favorites it's the olympia and it's a massive boat it
stretches an incredible 57 meters that's 187 feet folks and it is putin's go-to place for get this
business negotiations with some of the world's most important people
as well as with representatives of other countries what we're saying is this luxury liner doubles as
his boardroom and what a boardroom it is designed by the folks at the dutch shipyard feed ship this
beautiful vessel was constructed in 2002 the cost an astonishing 50 million dollars all
in all the olympia can handle up to 10 guests and 16 crew members but don't think for a minute that
spending time on the olympia means that you'll be crammed into a cabin on the lower decks sharing a
bunk with another passenger oh no here you'll find 10 beautifully furnished cabins that can
comfortably house each passenger if need be where does mr putin sleep that would be the aptly named
presidential cabin located on a separate level and it is literally one third of the width of the ship
hey if that doesn't say presidential we don't know what does the presidential cabin is constructed
out of pink marble giving it a look that not only screams head honcho but also looks absolutely
stunning against the backdrop of the sea in all the cabins you'll find the latest in appliances
and of course they are all furnished too but if you're looking to relax with your friends you'll
want to head on up to the deck that has a fully functional jacuzzi which goes for around 3 299
bucks as well as a bar we'd love to tell you more about what can be found on the interior
of the olympia but it's actually kept as a state secret by putin and his team however we can tell
you that experts have put the cost of outfitting the interior of this vessel at millions of dollars
honestly we really aren't all that surprised next up we want to show off the graceful this
steel and aluminum colossus is powered by a pair of massive 3100 horsepower diesel engines
that push twin screws just how big is the graceful from front to back 82 meters that's 269 feet
that classifies this beauty as a super yacht and frankly we don't think it should be described as
anything but super on the graceful up to 14 guests can be comfortably housed and believe it or not
this ship can also house up to 24 crew members but we should point out that there are only six rooms
there's the largest room the master suite two vip staterooms and three guest cabins but while there
may not be the privacy that was found on the aforementioned olympia this ship makes up for
it tenfold on the graceful you'll find one of the most unique amenities ever built on a yacht
a 50 foot by 10 foot indoor pool that at the flip of a switch can be converted into a dance
floor comparable pools can go for just around ten thousand dollars but that dance floor feature yeah
that's something only billionaires of the world can afford billionaires like vladimir putin the
other standout feature of this yacht is that it has some of the most stunning uncovered areas
on the decks that give fully panoramic views of the surroundings there's also a rather impressive
flight deck on the graceful that when you compare it to the size of the ship it's actually one of
the biggest flight decks ratio wise out there how much did this ship cost mr putin a stunning 100
million dollars but that's only the half of it the annual running costs for the graceful have
been released and they come to a whopping 5 to 10 million dollars what can we say if you want to
own a yacht you better hit the jackpot here's yet another yacht you'll find mr putin on it's known
as the cheikya which when translated means seagull it was built in 2009 by the turkish shipyard
protects in turquoise and when it was first launched it went by another name leo fun this
ship is interesting because technically according to documents from the russian maritime register
of shipping the siegel belongs to the state supply company of the administrative department of putin
this is likely due to the fact that in 2011 the russian government bought this boat for putin so
that he would be able to host his guests in style during the sochi 2012 winter olympics the seagull
is a fully functional seafaring vessel and is capable of transatlantic voyages this yacht can
even handle expeditions of over 4 000 miles the steel hall of the ship comes to 53.7 meters and it
can top out at speeds of up to 17 knots the fuel tanks are also quite large so they can be ready
for any spur-of-the-moment long-term cruises they are outfitted to hold ten thousand liters of fuel
wow as far as guests and accommodations go the seagull is nothing to sneeze at
twelve guests can comfortably fit in the ship's staterooms and there can be a maximum onboard
crew of 11. inside you'll find a 100 square meter dining room a swimming pool a jacuzzi a gym and
even a barbecue area when it all comes down to it this ship costs quite a pretty penny hey what did
you expect from a yacht used by one of the richest men on the planet reports put this
boat's price tag between 30 and 40 million euros that's between 34 five thousand 855
hundred dollars and forty six million four hundred seventy four thousand dollars but with that kind
of cost you know you're going to get your money's worth like the graceful the seagull has some of
the most incredible outdoor spaces found on luxury yachts and another standout feature of this ship
is the fact that it can easily host events that's a good thing when you're the leader of russia our
last yacht we want to give you the scoop on is actually the one we know the least about
that's mainly due to the fact that it is the smallest of the bunch and likely the one least
used by president putin it's the petrol and it's a 35 meter vessel with a max speed of 14 knots and a
cruising speed of 10 knots the petrol can house 16 passengers with its beautifully furnished cabins
which each come with their own private balcony on board you'll also find a lounge fantastic areas
for socializing and a sun deck complete with its own jacuzzi there's enough space to house 12 crew
and while we couldn't find an exact price for the petrol we can tell you that the similarly sized
princess 35 meter samba super motor super is 16 846 535 dollars even putin's smaller yacht
has a hefty price tag hey before we go there's another yacht we want to show you and
it's called the eclipse for a while many people speculated that this was also owned by mr putin
but turns out this boat is owned by his friend russian oligarch roman abramovich who is
worth 18 billion dollars it's one of the most incredible yachts we've ever seen at 533 feet
and valued at 400 million to 500 million dollars honestly with how stunning this one is we see
why putin spends so much time on it must be a nice change of pace from his other yachts
and from his fleet of 58 aircrafts and his rs senate limousine the equivalent of president
joe biden's presidential vehicle known as the beast hmm seems like putin has plenty of ways
to travel in style thanks for tuning in today we hope you enjoyed today's video all about
putin's incredible yachts we will see you next time right here on the richest
