German Billionaire Offers World's Fastest Long-Range Superyacht for $85 Million
German eco-industrialist Guido Krass is offering to sell his 241-ft. Silver Zwei (above), the world's fastest long-range superyacht, for €59 million (about $85 million). Designed to the billionaire's specifications by Monaco's famed Espen Oeino, the Silver Zwei is about as an environmentally friendly as a yacht of its size and speed can be.
That means high fuel efficiency, which is quite handy when crossing the Atlantic at a cool 22 knots. The yacht's light, airy interior has accommodations for 20 guests in nine cabins including a large owner's suite with private lounge and veranda deck. Earth tones and clean white spaces with orange accents abound.
Luxury touches are in ample supply including an open-air cinema and Jacuzzi on the sundeck, a large sunpad which converts to a dance floor with discotheque lighting and sound systems, a sea level beach club with integrated sauna, and a helipad on the foredeck. Equipped with advanced security and communications systems, she's ready for a new billionaire owner to take the helm.

Good luck to him; but it seems to me that it is just a status symbol/advertising in the Med. Who needs it? OK; it's good for business. I suppose he knows the bottom line.
I'd just rent a boat whenever I got the urge to look cool and have friends over for dinner.

Wow, that could feed my son and I for the rest of our lives. I would sell it and help others like us if I had that boat. How lucky is Guido Krass! :)

I hope the owner donates the money to people in need when he sells the boat. GOOD COMES TO THOSE WHO DO FOR FOR OTHERS!!!

Just put it on my visa debit card. And while he's at it, he can throw in a bag of fries and a large Coke.
