Forget underground bunkers — the $2 billion underwater superyacht stands out as the solution to escape all of it.
Christian Gumpold, chief executive at the Graz-based design firm Migaloo, has been attempting to sell the general public on the Migaloo M5 for years.
The 541-foot-long luxury submersible is able to going 820 feet underwater and staying submerged for 4 weeks. The vessel can accommodate 20 passengers and 40 crew members.
Guests can enjoy riding jet skis, kite browsing, paddleboarding, setting off in considered one of two six-person mini-submarines, or taking a ride on a helicopter.
And yet, there have been no orders for the custom submarine — especially within the wake of June’s fatal Titan submersible mission to explore the wreckage of the Titanic.
The Times of the UK notes that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has tainted the superyacht industry due to its association with Russian oligarchs.
The Times also reports that the proportion of individuals with yachts has declined to 2% in 2021, from 3.6% in 2014 — and yet the variety of wealthy individuals who can afford yachts is growing.
Perhaps that’s why Migaloo this week touted on Facebook its Limo Sub Tender, which means that you can “step onboard your Submersible Superyacht — unseen and undetected.”
The Migaloo M5 also boasts space for 2 pools, a jacuzzi, and a restaurant.
For more formal meals, there’s a 36-seat dining room with glass partitions that provide stunning views of marine life.
The superyacht submarine starts at $2 billion — the value would increase with the addition of more features — perhaps a wine cellar or movie room?
While the Migaloo M5 has yet to take off, the 378-foot-long Ahpo superyacht made a splash earlier this 12 months when it sold for $362 million.
The ship, snatched up by professional-hockey-player-turned-billionaire-businessman Patrick Dovigi, can accommodate as much as 16 guests in its eight “immense staterooms,” which incorporates a duplex primary suite featuring its own gym — not to say a further 4 staff cabins for the crew of 36.
Onboard, there’s a spa complete with a Himalayan salt sauna and a Turkish-style hammam steam room, in addition to a beach club with a sit-up bar and waterside lounge.
There’s also a 12-seat theater, a protected garden for all-season lounging, an onboard garage stocked with eight small tender boats, and a commercially certified helipad.
