Dilbar is the world’s largest yacht measured by volume. (Azzam is longer but with less volume). She has the largest (indoor) pool ever installed on a yacht. Dilbar is said to be heading for a large 8-month refit in 2020. There are rumors in the industry that Usmanov bought the Lurssen yacht Tis as a temporary yacht.
Motor Yacht Dilbar
Dilbar is a 157 meter (512 ft) motor yacht built by Lurssen. She is the world’s biggest yacht measured by interior volume. She has been delivered to her owner in May 2016. She is designed by Espen Oeino.
Specifications
The yacht has a steel hull and an aluminum superstructure. She is powered by 6 power-plants. Which produce a total horsepower of 40,000hp.
She reaches a top speed of 22.5 knots. Her cruise speed is 16 knots. We estimate her range at least at 6,000nm.
Guests and Crew
The yacht’s interior is designed by Winch Design. The yacht has a large swimming pool on the main deck. She can accommodate 36 guests and has a crew of 96.
She replaced the previous Dilbar. Which was sold by Usmanov and is now named Al Raya.
Dilbar Yacht Price
We estimate her cost price between US$ 800 million and US$ 1 billion. This amount is based on her gross tonnage (15,917t) and a value of US$ 65,000 per ton. This value per ton is based on the contract price of recent Northern European built yachts.
Yacht Ona (now Raya)
Ona is a 110m (361 ft) steel yacht with an aluminum superstructure. She is built by Lürssen and launched in 2008. She accommodates 16 passengers and 47 crew. The design is by Tim Heywood with an interior done by Alberto Pinto.

Yacht Ona sold and Named Raya
In May 2017 the yacht Ona was put for sale. In September 2018 she was sold and named Raya. Some of her features are a large pool, a cinema, and a sauna and steam room.
