The Behemoth 371ft “Le Grand Bleu” Docks in Museum Park
LE GRAND BLEU - one of the largest private yachts in the world has made a stop in Miami, docking at Museum Park. Originally built in 2000, LE GRAND BLEU was once owned by Russian businessman Roman Abramovich.
The details of the interior are scarce because the owners of LE GRAND BLEU are fiercely private, but we do know that the opulent floating palace is loaded with toys. Two cranes atop the vessel hold two additional yachts near the helipad. On the port side, there is a 73-foot sailboat and, on the starboard side, there is a 68-foot powerboat. On the stern is a 16-foot swimming deck and there is even a beach club on the port side. Below deck, visitors of LE GRAND BLEU will find an extensive garage carrying two 36-foot Buzzi sport boats and a landing craft to carry a 4x4 Land Rover for excursions offshore.
Le Grand Bleu is also environmentally conscious. She is equipped with sewage and wastewater treatment plants, a water purification system and nitrogen and sulfur exhaust emission controls.
Despite being unavailable for charter, LE GRAND BLEU has the capacity for up to 20 guests and a crew of 35.
Earlier this year, she caused a stir in New York City for anchoring in the New York Harbor, blocking views of the Statue of Liberty.
