If you want to go really big, the Maltese Falcon might be a good option, but if you want to go straight up Malaysian gangsta, you need one of these…
The 100-foot long History Supreme was built over a 3-year period with 100,000 kilograms of solid gold and platinum accents including a her hull which is completely wrapped in gold. The $4.8 BILLION price tag also included meteoric stone wall fixtures and petrified dinosaur bone from a T-Rex.
To put this in perspective, each foot of this yacht cost $48,000,000 to build.
Blingmasters from Stuart Hughes of Liverpool were commissioned for this unbelievable project.

***UPDATE*** There’s no freakin’ way this boat was built with 100,000 kgs of gold and platinum. If anyone wants to say otherwise feel free, but you better send us some solid proof. First off, tell us how the heck you get your hands on 100,000 kgs of gold and platinum…
Is the the same as the barefooted pitcher that thew 100 MPH fast balls and read sandskrit?
The volume of gold alone mentioned in the article exceeds the cost of the vessel, unless I have my decimal point in the wrong place. Not used to working with figures the size of national debts!
Good point. The corporate website of Stuart Hughes claims they put 100,000 kgs of gold and platinum on her, but seriously, the powerplant to move this thing as fast as that photo shows would take up half the yacht with all that weight on it. Not to mention the associated center of gravity issues it would likely have.
That’s 110 tons of gold on a 100 foot boat. There are no portholes below the main deck – so maybe it has a giant powerplant. But then given the shape of the hull, I don’t think she’s going all that fast in the picture – perhaps 20-25kts. I agree I’d be concerned about the CoG issues and I doubt that the boat has much reserve stability. In reality, unless you have a small private army – it’s grossly impractical to keep secure. Some night the boat will be tied to a pier somewhere – and a few enterprising thieves will come by in a small boat with a torch – and take out a hunk of the hull.
This is FAKE. Pictures are photoshopped
Gratuitous self promotional material for Stuart Hughes to sell more tacky iphones.
100tonnes of gold at 1,600USD per oz (today) is $5.64bn so $4.8bn is a bargain!!! Somebody made/lost nearly a billion on the weihgt of the gold already.
If this is for real then it’s likely they bought the gold ~3 to 4 years ago.
sounds like bs.
a hoax…
