Yacht Streets of Monaco resembles a city on the water, even a small country. Designers have really recreated the streets of Monaco here with its smaller copies of luxury hotels, casinos, Cafe de Paris, La Rascasse night bar and even a go-kart track that repeats the route of the Grand Prix circuit in Monaco. At the heart of Streets of Monaco is the Atrium, linking the lower and upper living spaces, comprising seven guest rooms, each with a bedroom, bathroom and balcony. Despite the huge area of \u200b\u200bthe ship (almost 1.5 thousand square meters), no more than 16 guests can rest here.
However, so far no one walks along the “streets of Monaco” - the yacht does not belong to anyone.
The vessel, created in 2011 by the British company The Yacht Island, turned out to be so unusual that it is still waiting for its buyer. It is moored in one of the Turkish ports.
It is still the largest in the world. Its length is 180 meters. The steel giant took 28 months to build. The construction cost was US $ 620 million.
Its size is amazing. Just imagine: 180 meters is two football fields or 12 railway cars. At the same time, Azzam can easily accelerate to a maximum speed of 30 knots (55 km / h). It is assisted in this by two gas turbines with a total capacity of 94,000 hp, four water-jet units and a Wärtsilä-Sulzer RTA96-C turbocharged diesel engine with a capacity of 108,920 hp. (80 088 kW).
It is the largest engine in the world: it is 27.1 m long, 13.4 m high, and weights over 2,300 tons. Originally developed for container ships, it is ideal for a 180-meter mega-yacht with a width of 20 m. , and the estimated maximum draft is 4.8 m. There is no doubt that with such dimensions, there is enough space on board the mega-yacht to realize any customer's fantasies. Even the main salon has no analogues in the world: length - 29 m, width - 18 m.
The customer and current owner of the Azzam yacht is Khalifa Ibn Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE and Emir of Abu Dhabi, whose fortune is estimated by Forbes at 15 billion US dollars. The construction of the vessel was preceded by a design competition, in which the exterior from the Milan studio Nauta Yacht Design and the interior from the French designer Christophe Leoni won. The technical management of the building was carried out by Burgess Yachts. The chief engineer was Mubarak Saad al-Ahbabi.
It is known that the style in which the interior of Azzam is decorated is close to the neoclassicism of the early 19th century, during the reign of Napoleon Bonaparte. In the absence of photographs from the mega-yacht - no one has yet been able to get them, not even the authoritative international yacht publications - one can imagine something reminiscent of the imperial bedrooms in Versailles.
Registered as a charter yacht, however, there is no public information about the possibility and cost of her charter anywhere. It is extremely rare to find a yacht in the Arabian Sea, even less often in the Mediterranean. In May 2015, eyewitnesses managed to see her passing Gibraltar. Currently - and most of the time of the year - Azzam is moored at Khalifa Port in Abu Dhabi.
