That’s a big boat!

Paul Allen's Octopus


A couple of days ago, I got a powerpoint presentation of Paul Allen (co-founder of Microsoft) incredible boat – measuring over 400 feet. While surfing a bit on the topic, I found at that his boat isn’t the world’s biggest any longer, as Larry Ellison (co-founder of Oracle) apparently has a boat that’s a massive 452 feet long!

Allen Vs. EllisonTwo of America’s richest men keep building bigger and bigger yachts in the race to have the largest of them all.

But, some further research showed that none of these boats are even close to being the ‘World’s largest Yacht. It’s this 525 feet long Platinum.

Money can’t buy you happiness, but it can buy you a really big boat! Hehe.
