Originally constructed at the Lloyd-Werft in Bremerhaven back in 2010, the "Luna" promises luxury like no other. The Nordsee-Zeitung reported the news.
Sweet Amenities Await on Board
The yacht caters to 18 guests and 51-crew members in its spacious 115-meter frame. Among its features? A cinema, dance floor, beauty salon, beach club, fitness studio, and nine lavish cabins spread across four decks. At the time of its unveiling, the cost for Abramovich surpassed €400 million!
A Short Stint at Sea and a Sojourn in Harbor
The "Luna" changed hands a few times after its initial sale. Initially, it was slated for Abramovich's ex-wife due to divorce disputes, but he managed to hold onto the yacht. Over the last few years, though, it's been anchored in Hamburg harbor due to sanctions against Russia.
