There Seems To be So Many 'Super Yachts',

but here is one that really will stand out from the crowd, 


photographs Migaloo, Austrian company Migaloo has unveiled its design for a 165-metre-long submersible superyacht that could allow the ultra-rich to enjoy private underwater adventures, technical data released about the Migaloo M5 suggests that the submarine could descend to a depth of approximately 250 meters beneath the ocean surface and remain submerged for up to four weeks,

"The needs of superyacht owners for their vessels are more complex than ever [and] do not just include performance, length or design," explained the company's CEO and chief designer Christian Gumpold, 

"Owners are looking for privacy, security and protection for themselves, their guests and their valuables, or for the fulfilment of unique experiences up to scientific desires as well as for the greatest possible exclusivity."

Migaloo, which describes itself as a "private submersible yacht" design studio, says it is taking orders for its submarine although no prototype has been revealed to date, the company suggests the vessel would measure 165.8 meters in length and 23 meters across at its widest point, with a range of roughly 15,000 kilometres and a speed of 20 knots surfaced or 12 knots submerged, 

according to Gumpold, the preliminary design for the M5 is intended as inspiration and any Migaloo vessel would be designed in collaboration with the owner to meet their specific preferences and requirements, the default design for the interior shows spaces including a large salon with a DJ booth, a swimming pool and spa, a gym, an art gallery and a cinema, along with a multitude of lounges and dining areas, so if you fancy yourself as a Captain Nemo, cheque books at the ready please and bring a big cheque book, prices start at $2 billion.
