We should all figure out how to rent that motherfricker for a weekend. Hookers and blow style. I'd contribute 4 digits to that for my end.

Yeah, there was one here earlier this summer called the Vava II, and it was a gift from the wealthiest man in Switzerland to his wife. I guess the super wealthy have a different standard when it comes to "keeping up with the Jones."

The rich really give no fricks. Saw an article about a guy who just left his $450,000 Porsche sitting in a public parking garage for over a year collecting dust.

There's a charter yacht docked here right now called the Ice Bear.



If you have enough friends with money to blow..

Yeah, I know. There are some awesome yachts out there right now. I walked the docks the other night and some of them are amazing.

Guy that started Bayliner Boats had his out there a few weeks ago, he had a helicopter on the back. Paul Allens has a chopper and a submarine.

I guess it would make sense for a few of them to head up to AK. It's beautiful.

I remember my first experience with billionaire money was in the south of France. There was a yacht parked next to a cruise ship that made the ship seem not so big.

Good pictures. Looks like some kind of submarine. Is it still parked out there?

These mega yachts rent for a few million a week. You are going to need some more digits

I think it looks awesome. Certainly different from the average $300 million superyacht. It's built that way in part to be bomb resistant, which is why it does look more like a military stealth craft than it does a yacht.

Dudes airplane is amazing. Still parked at the airport.

It's in the area. Just not in Auke Bay. Probably in Glacier Bay

Usually a good figure on a boat is 10% per year of the total value to run one. Damn!

How is he allowed to visit? I thought we cut all of the Russian super rich off a while ago. I guess he wasn't included.

Fuel, crew, maintenance, harbor fees, slip fees, dry dock every five years for that beast ... a million wouldn't touch it. It would have to be twice that, if not three or four times that. That's not counting the chopper, the food and liquor, ...

Damn one-percenters.
