Billionaires always want to outdo one other and themselves by buying extremely costly stuff. Accordingly, in 2011, Malaysian business mogul Robert Kuok may have bought History Supreme, a boat made of solid gold, platinum, meteoric stone, and a tyrannosaurus rex bone, to top the list. Kuok is a self-made millionaire who controls the global Kuok Group. Paying $4.8 billion for the History Supreme apparently consumed a third of his $12.8 billion wealth. Forbes expects the 97-year-old to be worth $12.6 billion by 2021.
Gold-plated cabins are standard aboard yachts, which provide every luxury. Billionaires who own these architectural marvels have access to swimming pools, dance floors, movie halls, bars, lounges, and other facilities. Owners also board helicopters that land on the boat’s deck for extra style. Each yacht’s sleek, elegant engine is world-class. None of the passengers feel any pain as they race through the waves. To guarantee their luster and durability are worth the price, ships are made with the greatest materials.
Supreme History Is A Boat Made Of Gold
The world’s most costly boat is History Supreme. An anonymous Malaysian businessman hired Stuart Hughes to make it. Media reports identify Robert Kuok, the rich founder of Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts. The 30-meter boat took three years and 100,000 kg of gold and platinum to create. To make the boat seem sumptuous, a thin gold layer was added to its base. The deck, dining area, railings, and anchor have gold accents. A T-Rex bone on a meteoric stone wall in the yacht’s main sleeping compartment shows its opulent interior decor.The Daily Mail said that the vessel’s three-year construction utilized 220,462 pounds of precious metals.
The boat foundation, deck, eating area, rails, and anchor were gold and platinum. The superyacht was acquired by Robert Kuok after Roman Abramovitch paid 10 times more for Eclipse. Kuok is one of three Malaysian billionaires on Forbes’ list. The Business Insider reports that Malaysia’s richest man, Robert Kuok, with $12.5 billion, is the most probable bidder.
History Supreme’s Luxurious Interiors And Performance
The dining room, rails, and anchors are made of precious metals, and the vessel’s foundation is gold. The superyacht’s sumptuous interior has central bedroom quarters and platinum decorations, including meteoric stone and T-Rex bone wall elements. A premium liquor bottle aboard the ship contains an 18.5-carat diamond, one of the rarest in the world. Check out the diamond-encrusted iPhone with two diamonds that can replace the home button. The 24-carat gold-plated panoramic wall aquarium aboard the yacht might make you forget you’re at sea.
As you may have seen, the superyacht’s performance and other attributes have not been mentioned. Despite the features’ high quality, they seemed like a haphazard mix to justify the high price. The $4.8 billion yacht price was even more ludicrous than the assertion that none of it was genuine.
