The Wealthiest of the Wealthy’s $4.8 Billion Boat Party in Monaco

The annual Monaco Yacht Show showcases the pinnacle of design, engineering, and luxury available to the seafaring superrich.

The world’s finest yachts (and all the toys to go with them) showed off their glitz last week in Monaco’s Port Hercules for the 29th annual Monaco Yacht Show. From Sept. 25–29, 125 superyachts worth a combined $4.3 billion convened in the Mediterranean, with 44 making debuts. Highlights of the event included the 210-foot Attila, the largest ever built by Italian shipyard SanLorenzo, and the Excellence, which won the prize for best exterior design and finest new yacht offering.
