if yes, then you’re in luck! > **A LAVISH new yacht recreating the billionaire’s playground of Monaco is set to become the world’s most expensive.** The staggering 155-metre _Streets of Monaco_ yacht is expected to cost over $1.1 billion to build and is modelled on a section of Monte Carlo. > Currently in the design stage, the super-ship will feature smaller versions of the state’s famous landmarks such as the Monte Carlo Casino and racetrack, as well as swimming pools, tennis courts, a cinema, a go kart track and a Hotel de Paris. > Instead of traditional decks the one-of-a-kind ship will have buildings, and instead of a swimming platform it will have a beach. > Travellers will also spot waterfalls, a swim-in Jacuzzi-bar, helicopters and submarines on board. > The one-of a kind ship could be home to 16 guests and 70 crew with the main apartment spread over three floors and 445 square metres. > ``` > Linking upper and lower living areas is the Atrium – featuring seven guest suites, a bathroom, bedroom, dressing room, reception and balcony. > > ``` > > The idea for the super-boat, designed by Yacht Island Design, was sparked by car racing and developed into something more innovative. > "It is basically a floating city,” company director Rob McPherson said. > "The design theme called for a unique yacht that reflected the style and sophistication of the principality. > “We want to create a truly unique environment that could take the principality of Monaco to the ocean.” > The ship will exceed the $1 billion price tag reportedly paid by Roman Abramovich for his _Eclipse_ yacht. > A second creation by Yacht Island Design will be a smaller 85-metre yacht based on a Pacific Island theme.
