Roman Abramovich's Mega Yacht LE GRAND BLEU moored in Guernsey Harbour

Le Grand Bleu came to Guernsey on the 9th October 2009. It is one of the largest private yachts in the world and was launched in 2000.

It is powered by two 3,600 hp Wartsila engines and was previously owned by John McCaw Jr an American businessman. It is 374ft long, it has a 74ft sailing yacht and a 67ft motor yacht on the main deck. It has four 20 tonne cranes to lift the sailing yacht and motor yacht in and out of the water.

It had been in Yarmouth, Isle of Wight for a few weeks before coming to Guernsey. In Guernsey it had a top up of it's fuel tanks 100,000 litres of diesel which cost £80,000. After Guernsey it was off to the Azores.

It did belong to Roman Abramovich but he gifted it to his accountant and friend Eugene Shvidler and because it was so large it had be moored where the ferries moor. It is almost the same size as the Commodore Clipper ferry.

No, I put it in the description. He gifted it to a friend.

I don't think Roman owns this anymore.
