9 Celebrity Yachts That Make Luxury Homes Look Cheap
Many celebrities own Yachts that often look more like floating estates than weekend cruisers. Many are built to host large groups, with full kitchens, spas, private theaters, and full-time crews. These are long-range vessels designed for comfort, privacy, and long stretches at sea. Their price tags reflect that scale and ambition.
