Super Yacht Carinthia VII

The super yacht Carinthia VII was built in the Lurssen yard in 2002 and refurbished in the same yard 3 years later. It was registered in Bremen, Germany and sails under the flag of Austria with the home port of Antibes, France. She is one of the largest yachts in the world and certainly one of the most beautiful superyachts in the world. Manufactured in steel, it has length of 318.25 ft (97.20 m), beam of 52.50 ft (16.00 m) and draft of 15.75 ft (4.80 m). The main engines are 4 x MTU 1163 Diesels, which generate 10.064 HP each and enable Carinthia VII to reach a maximum speed of 26 knots. The living area consists of a VIP owner stateroom, including living room, bedroom and bathroom and large verandah, plus 5 large double staterooms, with own bathrooms.

 



 

 

Heidi Horten

Heidi Horten (born 13 February 1941 in Vienna, Austria) is one of the world's richest women. Having married Helmut Horten in 1966, she inherited an estimated $1 billion fortune from him when he died in 1987. Forbes estimates her current wealth at USD 3.2 billion. Helmut Horten (8 January 1909, Bonn – 30 November 1987, Croglio, Switzerland) was a German entrepreneur who built up and owned the fourth-largest chain of department stores in Germany. Horten introduced Germany's first supermarket after a visit to the United States, the copying of this business model expanding the group quickly. In 1968, with 25,000 staff and turnover of €1Bn, he floated the group on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. In 1972 Horten sold his majority stake and retired from the business, which controversially lost a great deal of value soon afterwards. In 1994 the chain was bought by Kauhof Holding AG, merged in to the German retail group METRO AG in 1996
