The 5 Most Awesome Yachts in the World

By

In our dreams we own a yacht…a super slick yacht with a full crew, a swimming pool and a swish built-in bar. As ultra-luxe as that may sound to us, when we saw the line-up for the upcoming Cannes Yachting Festival, our humble dreams were well and truly put to shame. These yachts are on a whole other level of opulence. Allow us to fuel your daydreams and blow your mind with our selection of the five greatest.

1. Riva Mythos 122

Recommended Videos

The latest offering from the revered Ferretti group measures a whopping 37.5m long, making it their largest yet. The insanely sleak aluminium design houses a bridge featuring a Jacuzzi and luxury lounge area, an owner’s suite and several guest cabins – this baby will sleep ten people in case you were wondering – all of which can be customized to bespoke specifications. If that wasn’t enough, it has been awarded a Green Plus Yacht award for its progressive environmentally friendly performance, so you can sail guilt-free.

2. Benetti Ocean Paradise

If 37.5m doesn’t quite cut it, the Benetti Ocean Paradise measures an insane 55m in length. One for the style-conscious sailor, the fully customizable design options includes a combination of both transparent and opaque materials in honor of the ocean. There are four guest cabins each featuring a gigantic bathtub and seaviews, a master suite spread across the entire length of the yacht, a central hall and a hidden garage complete with a mooring platform for jet-skis. Yikes…

3. Otam 58ht

OK, here’s one for smooth criminals. Dubbed 58HT M/Y “Crazy Too”, this amazing design features a custom colored black hull and hardtop, a ‘carbon look’ deck, a single cabin, a twin guest room and a master cabin, each with its own en-suite. There’s also a custom wine cellar a master cabin with a full surround sound HD cinema and a M7 satellite dome so you can catch all your fave TV programmes way out on the ocean.

4. Logica 147 by Logica Yachts

The Logica 147 is perfect for those times when you don’t wanna abandon ship for a dip, thanks to the extra large swimming pool located on the main deck. This sleek yacht also sleeps 12, so its perfect for pool party’s on the move, and the MAN engines boast an impressive cruising speed of 14.7 knots.

5. 46 Displacement by Baglietto SP

Did somebody say P A R T Y boat? Look no further than the 46 Displacement. This insane vessel actually features a beach club in the stern. Honestly. As for the rest, you can expect a beautiful Nordic-style interior and two 3512B Caterpillar engines that can reach a maximum speed of 17 knots. Not too shabby right…

England-France playing for third place an instant World Cup classic
It was only for third place, but what a thriller.
Head, Person, Face

If you tuned in for the World Cup England-France game and checked out at halftime, nobody would have blamed you. The Three Lions led 4-0 at the half in a third-place game that was a blowout. You would have been right to assume England was in complete control and France had all but given up. You also would have been forgiven for turning off the TV and moving on to the rest of your Saturday. But for those who stuck it out, you were rewarded for your patience and loyalty.

France didn't waste any time getting on the board just three minutes into the second half with Kylian Mbappé's first goal of the game. Mbappé's goal didn't matter all that much at that point, except if you've been following the Golden Boot race. England still held a commanding 4-1 lead, thanks to goals from Declan Rice (3rd minute), Ezri Konsa (18th), and Bukayo Saka's brace (37th and stoppage time). Saka would complete the hat-trick in the 87th minute with a penalty conversion.

Argentina vs. Spain — Who do you have in the FIFA World Cup Final?
Argentina has found a way to survive, but is this style of play sustainable?
People, Person, Groupshot

Argentina must have nine lives, right? Somehow, Argentina has found a way to survive at the last minute in just about every one of its 2026 FIFA World Cup matches. Yes, this style of play has had everyone on the edge of their seats. But how long can this style of play really last? So far, the drama has played superbly on TV (much to FOX and Telemundo's delight). But do the defending World Cup champions have one more in them to repeat yet again?

While Argentina, the Group J winner, has yet again reached the final, the road to Sunday's finale at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, hasn't been an easy one. Time and again, Argentina has been on the brink of elimination. Who will ever forget little-known Cape Verde nearly knocking off the defending champs when Argentina needed extra time in the Round of 32 before finally coming away with a 3-2 win.

SailGP: The World’s Most Glamorous Sports League?
Formula 1 thrills, glamorous destinations, and plenty of Champagne.
Art, Water, Person

My dad is a diehard New England sports fan, and as a kid, I often worried I'd have to perform CPR on him whenever the Bruins, Patriots, or Red Sox were on television. As livid as a Viking berserker, the old man would leap off the sofa to coach Tom Brady from the living room or rain down curses upon the Yankees. Our cocker spaniel, Fenway, instinctively fled the room whenever my father reached for the remote. The stress of it all, plus the fact that I was missing episodes of South Park, soured me on professional sports.

I finally came around in my thirties, less for the sports themselves than for the spectacle and revelry. I can't name more than two Knicks players, but I had a blast watching the NBA Finals with my buddies at bars across New York. The nuances of Formula 1 are about as intelligible to me as multivariable calculus, but that didn't stop me from partying my face off on a press trip to the Miami Grand Prix. I also write about luxury watches, spirits, and travel—all of which dovetail rather nicely with grand athletic extravaganzas.
