Azzam

The longest private motor yacht on the water, and somehow also one of the fastest. 180 meters that move like a speedboat with a mortgage.

Spot a Yacht says

Our take.

Azzam is what happens when someone says "make it longer" and nobody in the room says no. Respect the engineering, fear the fuel bill.

Dockside legends

What they say about her.

Built to outrun the paparazzi

Dock talk says the 30-knot top speed exists purely so nobody with a long lens can keep up.

Our take: Gas turbines plus waterjets at this size are about range and flexibility. That said, if you had 180 meters and a turbine, wouldn't you floor it once?

Stories from on board

Been on her? Spill it.

Worked a season, crashed a party, waved from a dinghy. True, tall or somewhere between. The community votes.

Watched her come in at night once. Every light on, no sound at all. Felt like a city drifting past.

Friend of a friend did catering on board for one evening. Said the walk from the galley to the dining room took longer than her commute.
