SHE IS THE WORLD'S LARGEST SEA MONSTER, AZZAM THE YACHT. PRICED @ £400M

She reminds one of the Titanic, doesn’t she? Hope her makers haven’t boasted too much about her though!!
Azzam is believed to have been ordered by a Middle-Eastern billionaire and is being tested on the North Sea.
She was built by German firm Lurssen. With a staggering height of 590 feet, Azzam is a £400million floating palace which has knocked Roman Abramovich off the owners' top spot.
It was officially unveiled for the first time in April following three years at the shipbuilder's docks in Bremen.
Interesting facts about Azzam: It can travel in excess of 30 knots, with power coming from a combination of two gas turbines and two diesel engines with a total of 94,000 horsepower.
