Largest Superyachts That Could Change Hands in 2021

126.2m Octopus

A superyacht that will perhaps forever be associated with the late Paul Allen, Octopus is the pinnacle of explorer superyachts. One of the most well-travelled superyachts in the global fleet, this is one for an adventurous owner looking to reach the most remote regions of the world in ultimate luxury.

Delivered by Lurssen in 2003, the 126m superyacht Octopus features a recognisable exterior profile and striking blue and white hull designed by Norwegian design mastermind Espen Oeino. Accommodating up to 26 guests in 13 opulent cabins, with a crew of over 60 on hand to attend to their every need, Octopus is about as close as it gets to a floating palace.

Onboard amenities for entertainment both day and night include alfresco dining facilities, a full spa, cinema, multiple lounges and plenty of toys and vehicles stored on board.

Octopus has proven her immense explorer capabilities, having taken on challenging voyages such as the Northwest Passage and Antarctica, and has even contributed to discoveries such as the wreck of WWII battleship IJN Musashi off the Philippines coast. This is certainly a superyacht that will deliver unforgettable and unique moments for her next owner.

Octopus is listed with Burgess for an asking price of EUR 235,000,000
