The most expensive superyacht in the world

The History Supreme yacht was custom built and commissioned by Stuart Hughes, an expert in crafting and supplying luxury items for the elite from all around the world.

Hughes is primarily known for transforming iPads and iPhones into one-of-a-kind pieces by gold plating, encasing them in the finest leather, or adorning them with diamonds based on customer requests. His most famous work is the iPhone 4 covered in 500 diamonds, including two large ones that can be interchangeable on the home button, valued at $6.4 million.

The world’s most expensive yacht, History Supreme, is one of the greatest challenges Hughes set for himself. It took him three years to transform a modern naval vessel into the most extravagant masterpiece, with both the interior and exterior adorned with gold and embellished with unparalleled diamonds and gemstones.

Therefore, it’s not surprising that news of this impressive gold-plated yacht, valued at $4.8 billion and purchased by a Malaysian businessman in 2019, garnered immense attention from the public and industry experts. It can be said that with its astronomical price tag, this deal officially marked History Supreme as the most expensive yacht in the world.
