Steven Spielberg's new high-tech $200 million megayacht may be the world's most expensive yacht charter, but the 257-ft. TV (pictured above) launched by Lürssen in 2008 isn't far behind.

Designed by the brilliant Espen Oeino, it's now available to well-heeled yachtsmen for a cool $5 million a month. With a stunning Alberto Pintor interior the impressive craft was built to entertain a large number of guests with plenty of space for different salons, dining and relaxation areas.

Rare woods combine with dark blue leather upholstery in a pleasing interior scheme. A dedicated spa area expands onto a large fold-down sea terrace which allows said guests to go from a swim to the sauna, on to massage treatments and inside/outside gym activities in "a matter of seconds". Chief among the TV's top drawer touches is a very large owner's deck with its own Jacuzzi and sunbathing areas, in addition to a helipad which also incorporates a fueling station. The luxe craft can accommodate 12 guests in all along with 25 crew.
