Azzam is the world’s largest yacht, with a length of 180 meters (590ft). Azzam is actually “just” the world’s longest yacht, as superyacht Dilbar has a higher volume and bigger displacement.
The yacht was built by luxury yacht builder Lürssen for an estimated build price of $600 million. We come to this value due to her large displacement (13,136 ton). And a market value of around US$ 60,000 per ton for Northern European-built yachts. Her exterior design and styling are done by Nauta Yachts.
The yacht’s Interior design is done by French designer Christophe Leoni, who has designed a sophisticated and luxurious interior in Empire style.
She is able to navigate at speeds of more than 30 knots. The yacht is powered by a combination of two gas turbines and two diesel engines with a total of 94,000 horsepower.
She has a shallow draft for her size, but this allows her to reach the high top speed.
Her Captain is Martin Sheehy.
She is rumored to feature a bullet-proof master suite and a missile defense system. Azzam was delivered to her owner in October 2013. In March 2014 she was heading back to the Lurssen yard in Bremen. For some post-delivery works.

Some sources claim the photos above are actual interior photos of Azzam. We actually don’t think this is correct.
Azzam’s interior is designed by Christopher Leoni, of Creation Line Decoration. The design company is based in the United Arab Emirates. These are just sample photos and not photos of Azzam’s amazing interior.
Actually not much is known about Azzam’s tender. We have not been able to find any picture of a tender of the yacht. The photos above are just sample photos of different tenders.
