Forget going on a Carnival Cruise — If you buy one of these boats you’ll have your own personal cruise line with your own staff at your beck and call. Oh, the power!
There is one big catch — The cheapest boat on our list of the most expensive in the world runs a cool $300 million — and that includes the base package.
From personal tennis courts to an actually honest to goodness missile defense system (because, why not?), these are the most expensive and perhaps the coolest boats on the high seas.
Here are the 5 most expensive boats you can own for way too much money.
5. Al Said- $300 Million
The Al Said was the second most expensive boat in the world when it was created. This bad boy had a price tag of $300 million and for that price it offers plenty of room for 70 guests and 154 team members. At that price, it should come with its own island too.
The Al Said can cruise along at 22 knots and it’s made out of an aluminum structure.
This boat is so pimped out that it’s pretty much only fit for a king or in this case a Sulton. The boat was purchased in 2006 by the Sultan Qaboos of Oman.
4. Super yachtA- $323 Million
Russian billionaire Andrei Melchenko picked up this massive $323 million yacht.
The boat isn’t quite as large as the Al Said, fitting only 42 crew members and 14 visitors. However, it’s still a 394-foot mega-yacht.
While not as large, this boat offers excellent use of space. The lucky owner of this yacht can choose to swim in any of its three swimming pools. Why does the yacht have three swimming pools when the yacht is already floating on the largest swimming pool on Earth? Because seawater is EW!
Melchenko was also sure to include a ton of technology, including a 60-inch TV that is hidden in the ceiling of the master bedroom.

3. Dubai- $350 Million
This massive ship was commissioned for a wealthy Prince of Brunei but was delivered to Sheik Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum when he ended up paying for the project.
This massive yacht features a swimming pool, one spa, a glass flight of stairs and a heliport.
This massive boat is 531 feet long and is capable of carrying 115 guests. The only problem with that is, you now need to find 115 friends.
Despite its massive size this yacht can still travel upwards of 26 knots or 30 MPH.

1. Streets of Monaco- $1 Billion
This yacht is simply insane and that may be why it does not yet have an owner.
The most expensive personal boat in the world features some very extravagant features including a go-kart track, private seaside and man-made lake, and area on board a ship designed to reproduce a city-scape.
The designer even added replicas of casinos and the go-kart track is an imitation of the Monaco Grand Prix track.
This 550 foot yacht also features cafés and an underwater ocean views.
