Now, the Eclipse is being offered up for hire at a rate of $2 million per week, JamesList revealed. The 538-ft. superyacht is available via ultra-exclusive brokerage SuperYachtsMonaco.
The yacht, which can house 30 guests and 75 crew, reportedly features a military-grade missile defense system, armor plating, bulletproof windows, three helipads, two swimming pools and a wellness center, among other luxe amenities. The yacht also comes fitted with an anti-paparazzi electronic shield, which will ensure privacy while on board.
All these should make the billionaire owner of the Chelsea Football Club feel like home and protected when on the yacht.
Although the ‘Eclipse’ cost nearly $800 million to build, Abramovich only paid around $485 million for it after negotiations. Although he got that bargain, it is estimated to cost the wealthy Russian $50 million a year in upkeep alone, with a trip to the fuel station costing$650,000 each time.
